“You know that Axel is your son too, huh? However, you divide your motherly love that Axel deserves to two bastards who shouldn’t exist!”
‘Bastards?‘
River held her breath for a moment and looked at Noah in shock
Yes! She wanted to keep their children’s background a secret, but she would never allow someone to call them bastards!
River was so furious that she stood up and slapped Noah.
However, Noah lifted his hand and firmly grasped River’s wrist. He gazed at her with cold, indifferent eyes. “Are you upset because I’m correct?”
“Noah, you’re a jerk!” River reprimanded.
“I’m a jerk?” Noah got up in anger and pulled River before he flung her to the bed.
He leaned over her and grabbed her bosom ferociously. “I shall let you have a taste of the jerk then!
River wanted to push Noah away, yet Noah held her hands so tightly with one hand that she could not move.
“Let go of me, Noah!” River snarled.
Noah exerted more strength in his ‘grip. “Was this how the two bastards‘ father touched you?”
He moved his hand to another spot on River’s body. “Or like this?”
Intense feelings of humiliation washed over her, and she could not hold back her shakiness,
“Let go of me. I’m begging you!”
Noah felt his heart sank at the sight of River’s tears.
The anger in his eyes was drowned by coldness as he loosened his grip over her with a sneer. “Did you really think I’d sleep with you? You should know that I m a neat freak. I find another man’s woman filthy!”
Noah turned around and left after saying that.
River hugged herself, yet she could not stop shaking
Kenny and Neil came to the hospital at night and kept Tyler company with River.
Tyler had yet to wake up, and his face was pale.
Kenny said angrily, “How dare that scoundrel inject such a high dose of anesthesia in a child!”
River wiped Tyler’s hands with a towel gently with quilt in her eyes.
“River. Listen to me and increase security measures. We can’t let dangerous situations like this happen again.”
River nodded, “Sure.”
In truth, her brother was right. Her children would not be caught in this situation again had she not taken it lightly.
Neil explained, “I’ve talked to the police. They said Wayne caused the accident. He didn’t hurt the other kids, just Tyler. He also revealed the real mastermind–Daniella. She’s at the police station.
Grandpa is helping her.”
“Who is that shrew? I’m going to beat her to death!” Kenny was filled with righteous fury.
Neil glanced at him. “She is a member of the Xanders. Are you going to do it?”
Kenny choked on his words. He was new in town but knew about the three influential families in
Novamere.
He would get himself killed if he were to go against the powerful Xanders.
Kenny cowered and said, “Uh Sufficient resources ensure sustainability. Let’s conspire first.”
River’s expression chilled as she thought of Daniella. She understood she had misjudged Daniella’s cruelty. Daniella had not only mistreated Axel but also manipulated another person to harm Tyler!
River looked at Neil and said, “I would like to go to the police station, Neil.”
Neil kept quiet for a moment and said, “Sure. I’ll take care of Ty.”
River stood up and told Kenny, “Will you drive me there, please?”
Kenny said, “Let’s go!”
Daniella was growing restless in the interrogation room.
Her grandfather hadn’t hired a lawyer yet, but she had already spent over half a day at the police station
“Wayne, you fool!” she cursed inwardly.
She thought Wayne, who studied abroad, would be intelligent. However, he foolishly revealed everything!
All of a sudden, the door of the interrogation room opened.
The police officer said, “Ms. Love, someone is here to see you.”
Daniella was delighted and convinced that her grandfather had sent someone!
She stood up, walked to the door, and glanced at the police officer in contempt. “I told you not to detain someone casually, or you might lose your job.”
The police officer said righteously, “We will make our own judgment if you’re right or wrong!”
Daniella grunted as she exited the interrogation room with pride. Regrettably, instead of the lawyer, River was standing nearby.
She abruptly stopped, feeling the temptation to retreat to the interrogation room.
Despite knowing she couldn’t resist River, Daniella steeled herself to confront her, driven by her ego.
She said, “What are you-”
Before Daniella could finish her sentence, River slapped her
“You’re the most forgetful person when it comes to being hit.” River stared at Daniella coldly.
Daniella covered her burning cheek and glared ferociously at River. “How dare you hit me at the police station?”
“Why not? Will the police help a bitch with no sense of decency? River said mockingly.
“Why do you claim I harmed your son without any evidence? Are you going to convict me for being guilty with just Wayne’s testimony?” Daniella’s eyes were bloodshot from anger.
River said, “You’re capable of making up everything and avoiding legal liability, but do you know that every evil act of yours will haunt you one day!”
River took a step closer to Daniella and glared at her. “Remember this, Daniella! If you dare to do anything to my children, I will make you suffer for the rest of your life!”
“Crazy woman!” Daniella backed away in fear.
She turned with a ghastly pale face and swiftly ran into the interrogation room, locking herself inside.
River looked away and exited the police station.
Kenny asked River upon her return to the car, “How was it? Is she sentenced?”
River put on her seatbelt. “It’s not that easy.”
“Huh? Why?” Kenny asked in shock.
“Why. It’s going to take three full days to explain why,‘ she thought.
Moreover, she knew that Grayson would figure out a way to save Daniella if she were to do something now.
She was well aware that Daniella would behave for some time after being threatened.
She did not wish for Kenny to get involved in her enmity.
The next day, Naomi came to the hospital to seek River’s signatures for some documents. She brought a fruit basket as well.
River accepted the gift and placed it on the bedside table. “Thank you. Remember to follow up on the factory in the next two days and update me if there is any information.”
Naomi nodded. “Sure. Ms. Healy. Please check through these two documents and sign them.”
River examined the documents closely.
After a while, Paige entered the room. “I’m here, River.”
River glanced at Paige and nodded. ‘Please hold on while I sign these documents.”
“Go ahead “Paige took a seat and used her phone.
Ten minutes later, River went through the documents and said with a frown, “Who drew this sketch?”
Naomi glanced at it and answered, “The person the VP hired.”
River said, “Does she think that she can deceive us by making slight changes to MK’s design from six years ago?”
Paige’s interest was piqued when River mentioned MK. She put down her phone and came closer. ‘Let me see.”
River passed the design sketch to her.
Paige was stunned as soon as she saw it. “My department’s employee designed this! Anyone can tell at one glance. You can’t keep this person on your team, River.”
River nodded and looked at Naomi. “Send this design sketch to Kenny. He will handle his own subordinates. Everything else is fine, but we will need to confirm it in a meeting.”
Naomi took the documents. “Yes, Ms. Healy. I shall head back now.”
River checked her watch. “You haven’t had your lunch yet, right?”
Naomi turned around. “Yes.”
River looked at Paige, and the latter said before River could say something. “Go ahead. I’m on a diet now, so I’m grabbing a wholemeal sandwich
Excitedly, she opened a game on her phone.
River left the hospital with Naomi in search of a restaurant to eat at and said, “There’s a diner opposite the Grand East Hospital Will that be fine?”
Naomi said, ‘You decide, Ms. Healy. A freeloader doesn’t refuse food.”
River sniggered as Naomi’s unexpected sense of humor caught her off guard.
“Your words don’t match your expression.”
River and Naomi crossed the road. As they neared the opposite side, a white sedan sped toward them.
