Chapter 1126 The Truth
Soon, Anya turned serious, realizing there must be some secrets behind Lorie’s car accident.
As Lorie suddenly mentioned the accident, Anya guessed her mother must want to tell her more clues, so she expressed her suspicion, “Is there something else to your car accident?”
Her mom wouldn’t have said the word ‘car’ if that was not the case.
The tears in Lorie’s eyes came out at once. Instead of feeling miserable due to the tragic accident, Lorie shed tears of joy because her daughter figured out what she had been thinking.
Lorie tearfully nodded and felt relieved that her daughter was so intelligent that she could guess the implications by one word.
Anya immediately replied, “I see. I will arrange for someone to investigate the whole thing.”
Lorie smiled with relief after she got what she wanted.
Dr. Choffard interrupted them in time. “Anya, we’d better end the video call now. Your mother just came out of a coma. She needs a break.”
“OK.” Anya nodded and ended the call.
Emelia asked tentatively, “Can I tell Phil this matter since your mother’s accident has something to do with him? If he knows it, he could investigate the whole thing. Besides, he has more connections than us, so it’s much easier for him to do it.”
These words made sense. Anya nodded. “You are right.”
She had long blamed Phil for her mother’s car accident. If there was more to it, Phil should find out the truth to get rid of guilt.
Later Phil knew the news from Julian in the hospital and his eyes turned sharp.
“More secrets behind the accident?” Ezra stood aside and gloated. “Phil, fate played a trick on you.”
“You two got divorced because of the accident. Now, the truth of it waits for you to make more investigation. But you decide to give up on Anya.”
Phil shot a sharp gaze at him and retorted, “No way. I don’t give up on her but let her live a life free of worries.”
Ezra shrugged his shoulders. Phil was irritated and said, “I’ll see you in the gym when I’m healthy again.”
When being hospitalized these days, Phil was annoyed by Ezra’s harsh words and was ready to beat him.
Ezra immediately stayed away from him and said aggressively, “No way. When you are discharged from the hospital, I have to return to my homeland. But someone has to stay here to look after his daughter.”
In a pique, Phil almost threw a pillow at Ezra.
Julian glared at Ezra. “Stop enraging him. If his wound is torn apart, you have to stay here.”
Ezra immediately apologized. “I’m sorry. It’s my fault. Don’t get injured.”
Phil glared at him and snorted.
Julian changed the topic. “If there are more clues about the accident, how should we start the investigation?”
“Obviously, Luna and her daughter are the most likely suspects,” Phil answered sullenly. “If they are involved in the whole thing, they have to pay the price and spend the rest of their lives in prison.”
Phil’s arrangement for Gracie’s return was to help Anya avenge herself on Luna for what the latter had done to Anya in the past.
But now, if Luna was involved in the accident, she was not only a shameless mistress that destroyed others’ marriage, but also a criminal that staged a car crash to murder Lorie.
Ezra turned indignant. “I will investigate them now. ”
“OK.”
Phil stayed in the hospital for a few days before returning home. Of course, he would continue to rest after returning home, because the back injury had not fully recovered.
Then, Julian and Ezra left for Chiobar. Emelia and Maisie decided to look after Anya for a month and wanted to stay with her for more days since Anya was highly weak after premature delivery.
Jean didn’t come over but she also helped Anya a lot.
Abigail, Arthur’s mother, was a famous gynecologist. She would come to Ustistan to give Anya medical treatment.
After a month, Anya thanked Emelia and Maisie for their care and asked them to return home. Then, they two left.
As their friends left, Phil and Anya lived in Ustistan peacefully.
Anya packed all Phil’s stuff and asked Julian to bring them to him.
Now, Anya and Phil lived separately and didn’t meet each other after she had visited him in the hospital.
After a month’s recovery, she went back to campus and buried herself in studying to catch up with her classmates when her daughter was in the hospital and Phil had no connection with her.
When the professor heard about her premature birth, he was very sorry for her. He talked to her several times, hoping to enlighten her and get her out of the pain earlier.
Phil was recovering at home while dealing with a backlog of work.
When he recovered fully, he went to work all day. He couldn’t leave Ustistan because he had to take his daughter home when she was a month old.
He rented a bigger, more luxurious apartment. He wanted to move to a villa farther away, but he found a house near Anya’s small flat that he liked, so that she could visit the child conveniently later.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
He couldn’t live uncomfortably in the rented house, so he bought the apartment. Besides, he wished his daughter to live in her real home.
Though it was not a ‘real home’, the house where his daughter lived couldn’t be someone else’s.
