Chapter 187: The Whereabouts of Tina Deross, Overheard
I followed Fiona Croix back to her place and took a hot bath to get rid of the cold.
Warm water can drive away the cold in your body, but it can’t warm the cold in your heart.
After washing up, I came out in my bathrobe and Fiona Croix placed a steaming bowl of noodles in front of me and I smiled, “We’re quite the sisters in distress.”
Along the way, she counseled me, I relieved her to come along, and no matter what happened, I was there for her and she was there for me.
Without any pretense, I picked up the noodles and began to eat; I’d already been through worse than this, so what was this little thing.
Fiona Croix sat down across from me, cup of hot water in her hand; she was particularly chilly after her miscarriage, and couldn’t stand a rainy day like this one without something warm in her hands.
“Better yet.”
“It’s just doing it all over again.” I put down my chopsticks and said, “If that’s what he wants, I’ll fulfill him.”
Even if his marriage to Susan Su might have been a ploy, there was only so much I could do.
And as Walker Richter said, he and Susan Su were one wedding away from each other, and even without that wedding, Susan Su would have been Ms. Richter.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
“Since you’ve figured it out, I won’t comfort you anymore.” Fiona Croix took out her cell phone, muttering to herself in her mouth, “I have to give Martin Mo a letter back, lest he worry, this Martin Mo is also really, put the Hill family Missy not to marry, how to die to knock on your crooked neck tree, if he doesn’t want to marry someone else Shirley Hill, then hurry up and withdraw from the marriage, don’t drag others ah, how much youth can a woman delay.”
Fiona Croix meant this for me.
The best love in the world is probably when the person you love also happens to love you.
And the odds of meeting the right person are so low.
Even fewer are still together.
Fiona Croix doesn’t advise me much, some things are all known and understood, it’s up to you whether you want to open up or not.
For women, love is a hijacking, how many people therefore scribble their lives, become ghosts and devils, and never find the original self.
It was a night that was destined to be sleepless.
The next day.
I stayed at Fiona Croix’s house and didn’t go anywhere or listen to any news from the outside world.
What I didn’t realize was that Gabby Yates had photographed me at the wedding.
I clicked on the video and when I saw Walker Richter and Susan Su exchanging rings and kissing in the auditorium, I came to the real realization that Walker Richter didn’t belong to me, that he and Susan Su were really married, and that it wasn’t a dream I couldn’t wake up from, but it was real.
The last bit of expectation in my heart was completely shattered.
I still don’t understand where I lost.
I watched the video over and over again, and I was able to memorize every detail of his actions and every word he said at the wedding.
“You are abusing yourself.” Fiona Croix walked over and took the phone over, directly deleting the video, “People sent this video over to poke you in the heart, and you really fell for it, letting others see your jokes.”
“You’re the only one here watching anyway, so others can still laugh.” I’m not mad at her for deleting the video, some things don’t really go to zero when you hit the delete button.
“Dead hearted no.” Fiona Croix said, “If you’re not going to be happy about it, then go and get the guy back now, don’t sit here and be miserable.”
I’d be making a fool of myself if I went.
I didn’t say anything, Fiona Croix sighed and changed the topic, “You really don’t care about Ulysses Will, there are still three days to go before the court, once it’s finalized, it’ll be hard to appeal, and judging from Ulysses Will’s current condition, he won’t appeal, he’s really going to be a scapegoat for someone this time. ”
“If he is bent on death, no one can help or stop him.” There was a bit of anger in my tone, “Let him be.”
“Easy for you to say.” Fiona Croix gave me a blank look, “You’re just being a stiff upper lip… If something really happened to Ulysses Will, you wouldn’t be in a hurry? You’d just sit back and do nothing?”
I grew up in an orphanage with Ulysses Will, and if I’m not family, I can’t do it naturally, it’s just a mouthful of bravado.
I mused for a moment, “What about Martin Mo’s side?”
“No breakthrough has been found for the time being.” Fiona Croix shrugged, “Who could have known that Bella Hill’s side would drop the chain at the critical moment, her testimony can’t be used, Martin Mo’s point, if we can find evidence of Randy Pan’s presence, that would be good.”
“So much time has passed, and Randy Pan isn’t stupid, I’m afraid the traces would have been destroyed long ago.” I frowned and said, “Instead of counting on finding incriminating evidence against Randy Pan, it would be better to let Ulysses Will retract his own confession.”
“It’s not an easy road with that nature of his.” Fiona Croix shook her head.
“He feels indebted to Bella Hill, and wants to take it all on for Bella Hill, and Bella Hill is in the same boat as Randy Pan, so saving Bella Hill is the same as helping Randy Pan,” I said, “If we can make Ulysses Will not feel indebted in his heart, this might work. I can make Ulysses Will not feel indebted in his heart, this might work.”
“You mean …?”
“Start with the child Bella Hill miscarried that year.” I tapped the leather of the couch and said, “Bella Hill was close to giving birth when the accident happened, it was her child with Ulysses Will, she must have cherished it and cared for it, an accident is unlikely.”
“Are you saying it wasn’t an accident, but man-made?”
“I hope the direction of guessing is right, Randy Pan likes Bella Hill so much, how could he let Bella Hill give birth to someone else’s child, and back then when I knocked out Bella Hill, Randy Pan appeared so coincidentally to take the person away, and even more so, he plastic surgery her into someone else’s likeness, and at that time Selina Versta was already dead, so it can be seen that Randy Pan had a premeditated plan to kill Selina Versta, it doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with Bella Hill.”
“If Randy Pan moved something, Ulysses Will knows that it was Randy Pan who killed his child, naturally he won’t take the blame anymore.” Fiona Croix snapped her fingers, “Then what are you waiting for, go and investigate immediately, go and ask Bella Hill, she must know more than others how her own child was lost, asking might yield something.”
“You call Martin Mo and tell him to get on this.”
“What about you?”
Looking out the window at the bright sky, I said, “I want to go somewhere.”
“Go where?” Fiona Croix was a little uneasy.
“Don’t worry, I won’t think twice.” I gave Fiona Croix a relieved smile and left her place, taking a cab to the Richter family.
It was a great day for Walker Richter and Susan Su, and the Richter family was basically there, with the surprising absence of Nancy Richter.
When she saw me coming, she was surprised, “Second brother is at the hotel with Susan Su, if you want to find second brother, you should also go to the wedding site, why did you come here.”
“I came to pick up one thing.” I said, “I left it behind before and came to get it back today.”
“What the hell?” Nancy Richter frowned.
“Heart.”
Nancy Richter, slightly stunned, stopped asking questions and told me to make myself at home while she went to her room.
I came here just to take all the memories that were lost here.
I went to the room where I had once stayed with Walker Richter and went through the corners of the house, but wherever there was a whiff of him, remembering.
I went downstairs to the back garden, where we had also been.
I was reminiscing about the past, but suddenly I saw Ben Richter’s daughter, Miley, holding a ragdoll cat behind a banyan tree and talking to herself, “Little Flower, Daddy said Mommy went far, far away and won’t come back, Daddy lied, I clearly saw Mommy lying right there in there, and Daddy was even talking to Mommy, except that Mommy wasn’t answering Daddy, and Daddy was hugging Mommy and cried, I don’t know why daddy cried.”
