“Who told you toe?”
Patrick had just rushed up when he was stopped and dragged to the side by two bodyguards, the rain drowning out his curses.
The ck figure walked through the rain curtain, not in a hurry, towards Lexie.
Lexie staggered back two steps.
The ck umbre below reveals a frost-like face, a pair of eyes more gloomy than the winter rain.
Before n could say anything, the police officer who came along behind him crossed over to him, “Miss Miller, we received a notice from above, in response to the case you recently handled, the inspector team wants to investigate you, pleasee with us.”
Flora frowned and swept her cold eyes over n behind them.
Lexie stopped in front of Flora at once.
[What do you want?
“Lexie, it’s okay,” Flora said as she pulled her towards the police officer who hade to take her away, “I’ming with you.”
From a distance, Patrick shouted, “What are you doing? Is there aw anymore? Is J City all Howard’s?”
Under the ck umbre, n lifted his hand and waved it gently.
Patrick cried out in pain, his insults stopped abruptly and he nted himself on thewn.
Lexie’s face changed, [Patrick!
[What are you doing? You let Patrick go!
n held his umbre with one hand, his face grim, “You seem disappointed to see me appear here.”
Lexie’s shoulders trembled, [Am I supposed to be happy? Happy that a man who killed my grandma showed up at her funeral, unharmed?
What’s wrong with the world?N?velDrama.Org is the owner.
n obviously smuggled drugs, obviously did so many harmful things, but can get away with it, but also so grandly appear in front of the victims to continue to do evil.
n said, “Is that why you went to the trouble of joining forces with Flora to put me in jail?”
[That’s what you deserve!
“Deserved?”
The coldness in Lexie’s eyes stung n’s eyes, and anger instantly rose from his chest.
Kevin was quick on the uptake and pulled Lexie behind him, “Brother, what are you doing? You can talk about what you have some other time, today is grandma’s funeral!”
“When is it your turn to be in charge of our couple’s affairs?”
“Brother!”
Kevin gritted his teeth, “Brother don’t you forget that you are already divorced, you are now married to Edith, where the hell are you going to put her if you continue to dwell on this?”
“Get out of the way.”
n unceremoniously pushed Kevin away, and the bodyguards on one side quickly held Kevin down.
Lexie let out a cry of pain and was grabbed by n’s wrist.
[Let go of me, let go of me!
“The funeral is over, my patience with you is over, nowe with me.”
[Where are you taking me? You let go of me!
Lexie struggled and pped her other hand desperately at n’s body, pping the umbre out of n’s hand as the cold rain pelted down on her.
n tightened his grip on her hand fiercely, “Had enough of this?”
The tombstone of grandma is getting farther and farther away. No matter how Lexie struggles, n has no intention to let go of her, and in the midst of Kevin’s shouting, she violently grabs n’s arm and bites down hard.
There was a muffled grunt from the man overhead.
n stared at her incredulously, his eyebrows wrinkled in trembling furrows, his thin lips pursed tightly, but even so, he did not release her, watching the blood flow down the back of his hand.
The taste of blood like rust spread in the mouth, Lexie’s eyes were red, staring dead at n, and finally tears came out of her eyes.
In the blur of tears, the body began to tremble uncontrobly.
n picked her up and walked towards the entrance of the cemetery without looking back.
The rain in the sky quickly washed the blood off the ground.
The bodyguard released Kevin, he rushed to the cemetery entrance and watched n’s car take off while he was helpless. Turning back to see Patrick still fainted behind him, he had to go ahead and save him.
Lexie was taken back to n’s vi in the southern suburbs.
As soon as she entered, n dragged her to the bedroom and mmed her on the sofa, “It’s quiet here, you’ll live here from now on.”
Lexie wore her hair loose, her head down without saying a word, one hand sped dead to the rest of the couch cushions.
n got annoyed when he saw her like this and shouted outside, “Someone.”
The maid ran in carefully, “Sir.”
“Take her to take a shower and change her clothes before you meet me.”
“Yes.”
n coldly swept Lexie a nce and dropped a sentence, “Don’t feel aggrieved, what do you have to be aggrieved about? Everything is what you asked for.”
It was Peter who married her into the Howard family and met herself, and it was she who willingly married for Edith, the beginning was her beginning, and the end could not let her do as she wished.
Closing the door to the room, n was all chills.
The maid outside looked at the blood on n’s hand, “Sir, let’s bandage your hand, it’s still bleeding.”
The back of n’s hand is clearly visible pressure marks, the flesh will bite through, after being soaked in rainwater is looking as if ulcerated, shocking, “Take the medicine box to me on the line.”
The maid went to get the medicine box and the sound of a vibrating cell phone came from n’s pocket.
It was Edith on the phone.
“Hello?”
“n, I heard you’re okay over there, right?”
“It’s all right.”
“That’s really great, where are you now? Let’s have dinner tonight to celebrate.”
“No, I have some things to take care of.”
Edith’s tone changed abruptly, “Are you with Lexie? Don’t you forget, you’re my fianc?? now, so why do you have to be with other women all the time?”
At that, n’s face rose with hostility, “Since when do I need to report to you for anything I do? Even the Howard family’s legitimate Mrs. Howard is not in charge of my business.”
“There’s nothing going on I’m hanging up.”
After saying this, he hung up the phone directly.
He hated being told what to do by women, and even if Edith had what he wanted, it didn’t mean he could be subservient to her.
At the other end of the phone, Edith asked a few ‘hellos’ to the phone before realizing that the phone had hung up.
She was so angry she wanted to smash the phone.
n came out of detention today, she received the news early in the morning, originally thought he woulde to find himself, but did not expect that the first person he went to see was Lexie, is that mute.
He really can’t get over that dumb guy!
When she thought of n’s indifferent attitude, she suddenly had some fears, it was so hard to get the position of fianc?? e, if this goes on, I am afraid that it will be a foregone conclusion.
No, she had to find a way to get n back to herself.
After a moment of deliberation, she tapped a text message on her phone and sent it over.
With a ‘ding’ sound, a text message alert sounded in therge living room of the southern suburban vi.
n took one look and instantly sat up straight.
“What you asked mest time, I thought it over, the evidence is in my hands, others I am notfortable with, I want to hand it over to you.”
The text message was from Edith.
