Exposing the Charade of Deep Affection - Season 2 Episode 16

He gestured in silence, “I was just reminding you, why would I, a grown man, feel sorry for him? Forget it, I won’t meddle in your affairs, let’s go!”

After speaking, he started the car and headed straight for the hospital.

I was utterly exhausted all the way, not willing to utter a single word.

Hospital.

Rachel was taken into the operating room, and William was outside. Seeing us arrive, he looked behind me and raised an eyebrow, asking, “Where’s Walter?”

I pursed my lips, “I don’t know!”

After speaking, I looked at him and asked, “Brother, how is Rachel? What did the doctor say?”

When I asked about Rachel, William’s face stiffened slightly for a moment before he said, “Not so good. The doctor said she has a large amount of animal semen in her body that needs to be cleaned out. In addition, she has a severe infection down there, and her uterus has been seriously damaged. She may have serious sequelae in the future, the main issue being psychological problems, which may be difficult to treat later on.”

I was stunned, unable to believe for a moment, “Animals?”

He nodded, paused for a moment, and said, “It should be that Tibetan Mastiff.”

I stiffened, trembling with rage all over, my fingertips digging into the flesh of my palm, unable to quell the anger in my heart for a long time.

“That bastard Henry!”

He actually let the animals at Rachel…

“Thud, thud!” The corridor echoed with the soft and heavy footsteps. It was Ashley and Walter who had followed.

The moment I saw Ashley, I couldn’t suppress the anger in my heart. Almost uncontrollably, I walked towards her, stood in front of her, and before she could react, I raised my hand and slapped her.

“Slap!” This slap was too sudden for the others.

The same was true for Ashley.

She suddenly widened her eyes at me, but only for a moment. After she glanced at Walter beside her, her tears started to fall like pearls off a broken string.

Looking at me with a helpless and pitiful face, he said, “Tabatha, are you still angry about what happened last night? I didn’t mean to, I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were really pregnant. I just didn’t want you to lie to Walter. If I had known you were really pregnant, even if you drowned in the pool, I wouldn’t have said anything, really.”

Watching her act so pretentiously, my vision turned blood-red, wishing I could tear her mouth apart right then and there, “Ashley, why don’t you just die!” The anger in my heart made it impossible for me to stay calm, I wished I could tear her to picces at that moment.

When I was about to tear Ashley apart again, a large hand stopped me. It was Walter. Even though his right hand was injured, it didn’t affect his protection of Ashley at all.

With a crimson glare, I stared at him, suppressing the rage within me, “Let go!”

He held me, didn’t let go, but looked at me and said, “You want to vent, come at me!”

Repeatedly provoked, I had long lost my sanity. The thought of Rachel’s miserable state after being violated only fueled my anger. With a hardened heart, I couldn’t move my hand, but my foot was free. I kicked Ashley in the stomach.

But in the end, my wish was not fulfilled. I couldn’t hurt Ashley at all. Walter pulled me tightly into his arms, and no matter how much I struggled, he wouldn’t let go. The blood on his hands stained me all

over.

I stopped struggling, enveloped by overwhelming fatigue and weakness. I looked up at the man in front of me, tears unknowingly streaming down my face.

I didn’t know just how disheveled I was at that moment, but I didn’t care. I despised myself at that time, I couldn’t even avenge my best friend.

Fine, I looked at Walter, my heart as cold as ashes, numbly I said, “Walter, I regret it.”

Why? Why did I save him at the border back then? Why did I desperately bring him back to the country?

Did all I do just serve to let him hurt me like this?

“Tabatha, what are you talking about?” Walter looked at me, panic, helplessness, and more confusion in his dark eyes.

I laughed, pushed him away, and took a few steps back to create some distance between us. I glanced at Ashley, who was already far away

from me. Turning back to Walter, my smile became even more sarcastic. “Walter, if you want to repay me, it’s impossible in this lifetime.”
