Chapter 246
Oh God! You silly girl! Why do you have to create so many problems?” Ingrid poked Roxanne’s head a few times. She could not help but sigh!
“Mom, what do you think I should do now? Bruce suspects me! He suspects that the two sums of money were used to pay the murderer!
“If he finds out that I caused Grandma’s death, our family will die a horrible death…”
Ingrid rolled her eyes in anger and helplessness. “Now you know how it feels to be scared. Why weren’t you smarter back.
then?”
“I didn’t want to either. I really regret it now. I’m really scared! If I can turn back time, I definitely wouldn’t dare to do this!” Roxanne cried.
“Mom, I don’t know what to do now. You have to save me. You have to think of something for me!
“I don’t want to die! I don’t want to go to jail!”
Ingrid felt as though her heart was stabbed. “Alright, alright. Don’t cry first. You only know how to cry when something happens!”
Roxanne couldn’t stop crying. Only now did she realize the seriousness of the matter!
Ingrid was even more distraught. For a moment, she had no idea what to do!
This matter was extremely serious. If they were not careful, both Roxanne and her could go to jail!
“Mom, what should we do?”
Ingrid thought for a while and asked with a frown. “Has the police questioned the doctor?”
“That doctor still goes to work as usual. So I don’t think so!”
“Get him to leave!”
The ringing of a phone was heard.
Kensley’s phone rang!
For the past few days, the police had been going to the hospital to investigate. He felt guilty and terrified!
“Hello!” Kensley quickly answered the call.
“Hello! Is that Doctor Leach?”
Recognizing that it was Roxanne’s voice, Kensley frowned. “Ms. Haynes, how dare you call me at this time?
“It would be ferrible if someone were to eavesdrop on us!”
Roxanne calmed herself down and asked anxiously, “I need to call to find out if the police had spoken to you.”
“Yes, they did. They just asked about the murder…”
Before Kensley could finish, Roxanne said anxiously, “Doctor Leach, you should leave the country quickly and hide
elsewhere for a while.
“I’m already a suspect. You should hide and maintain a low profile.”
If Kensley left Greyport, she would be safe for now.
When Kensley heard this, he felt frustrated. “Ms. Haynes, if I go overseas now, won’t I be admitting to committing the
crime?
“There are no problems at the moment, but if I leave now, the police will definitely be suspicious!”
Then, then what should we do?” Roxanne’s voice was extremely nervous.
Kensley frowned. This woman was really timid. “Calm down. Don’t panic first! Don’t panic!
“The police haven’t found out anything yet. Aren’t you exposing yourself by panicking?”
“But…
“You don’t have to worry. The police can’t do anything unless there is concrete evidence. Without evidence, everything they know can’t stand in court! You really need to calin down!” Kensley did not know that Roxanne was involved in a case.
He just said these words casually to make her feel better.
Roxanne wanted to say something, but Ingrid shook her head and stopped her. “Alright then! I’ll hang up first!”
After Roxanne ended the call with Kensley, she felt even more uneasy!
“Mom, if it doesn’t work, I’ll go overseas and hide for a while!”
Ingrid pursed her lips. “There’s no need to go overseas now. Anyway, you can run, but you can’t run forever!
“When the time comes, I’ll arrange for you to go away!
“Now that the criminal is dead, I hope the police can close the case as soon as possible!”
At the hospital!
It was already Christmas Eve.
Joanna had yet to recover, so she could only stay in hospital for Christmas.
A loud sound was heard.
The whistle of fireworks came from outside the window. Bright fireworks bloomed in the sky.
Seeing this, Ms. Chain and Nancy ran to the window quickly. “Who’s setting off fireworks?”
“Wow! The fireworks are really beautiful!”
Fireworks were strictly prohibited in Greyport. Only during major holidays like the Christmas or Independence Day could they be released at a designated location. The police had to maintain order at the scene!
Therefore, it would cost at least hundreds of thousands of dollars to set off fireworks. Moreover, it was not something that anyone withinoney could plan.
Another sound was heard.
Another round of fireworks bloomed in the sky, adding color and sparks to half of Greyport’s sky.
“Wow, it’s so beautiful!” The nurses were so excited that they forgot about taking care of their patients.
“Wow, look! There’s a name on it!”
“Hey! It seems to be Ms. Haynes‘ name!”
More fireworks bloomed in the sky, and they changed into various shapes!
Then, Joanna’s name appeared in large font! After a few seconds, the shape of the name changed!
It was obvious!
Someone had deliberately planned all these for Joanna.
The ward that she stayed in overlooked half of the Willows Harbor! The lights outside were dazzling, and it could make one’s heart flutter!
Joanna naturally saw it too!
“Ms. Haynes, draw the curtains quickly. These fireworks are specially set off for you!”
“Oh my god, who could it be?” Nancy said enviously.
Ms. Chain replied with a smile, “Isn’t that obvious? It must be Mr. Everett!”
“He is so good to Ms. Haynes. I hope both of you can get back together again!”
When Joanna heard this, she could not breathe.
Could it be Bruce?
What was wrong with him?
Joanna was in a daze!
The door of the ward was pushed open, and Davian and Irvin ran in happily.
“Mommy, we’re here… The two little boys looked very smart in their suits!
Both of them were carrying large bouquets of flowers in their arms!
“Mommy! Happy Christmas!” Davian and Irvin fought to give Joanna the flowers.
“Davian, Irvin, why are you here?” Joanna was completely stunned!
She never thought that the children would come back before Christmas.
“Mommy, this is for you!”
“Thank you!”
After Joanna had received the flowers, Bruce walked in with Lilia. They were behind Davian and Irvin.
The three of them were wearing matching father and son suits. They looked really eye–catching.
Lilia was also holding a bouquet of flowers. “Mommy, Merry Christmas!”
Joanna Haynes couldn’t hold back the smile on her face. “Merry Christmas!”
“Merry Christmas!” Bruce smiled at Joanna.
Joanna’s eyes instantly turned red. She hugged the children tightly and could not help but cry!
It was really a touching moment.
Davian looked concerned. “Mommy, are you feeling better?”
“Yes! What about you? How have you been?”
We’re fine. We just miss Mommy a lot!”
“Mommy misses all of you too!”
“Mommy, I want a hug!”
Bruce smiled at Lilia. “Lilia, go and give mommy a kiss. Mommy can’t really move now!”
“Sure!”
Bruce carried Lilia to the bed!
Lilia leaned on Joanna’s face and kissed her hard!
“I want to kiss Mommy too!” Davian and Irvin also rushed to kiss her!
“Lilia, let mommy take a look…” Joanna hugged her daughter tightly in her arms and looked at her lovingly. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Her daughter had leukemia. If she was not careful, she would be sick again. Naturally, Joanna was more worried.
Lilia blinked her big eyes and whispered into Joanna’s car, “Mommy, Daddy says that he wants to propose to you!”
Joanna was stunned!
Lilia blinked at her slyly and whispered into Joanna’s ear, “Daddy asked me to ask Mommy if she’s willing to marry Daddy.”
When Joanna heard this, she subconsciously looked at her daughter and then looked up at Bruce!
An expression appeared on Bruce’s face but Joanne could not really understand what it meant. Bruce seemed a little uneasy and embarrassed!
An arrogant person like him would not become humble so easily!
Although Bruce wanted to remarry Joanna, he still couldn’t bring himself to say it out loud.
“Lilia and Mommy, what are you whispering about? I want to hear it too! I want to hear it too!” Irvin was very curious. He leaned forward and kept asking!
“I’m not telling you!”
“Mommy, are you willing?”
“Lilia, you’re still young. Don’t be a messenger anymore! And don’t interfere in the matters between adults, okay?”
“Mommy…”
Joanna stroked her daughter’s head. “Be a good girl and don’t say anything else! If you say anything else, Mommy will be angry!”
“Oh…” Lilia pouted and didn’t dare to say anything else. She just looked at her daddy pitifully.
Bruce coughed and his face twitched. He was a little angry.
