Chapter 372 He Never Kept Anything From Her
As Christopher held the steering wheel, his hand tightened momentarily, and he nodded, “Yes, the allergies are quite severe. The marks around his eyes were not as pronounced, having faded significantly overnight, so he no longer needed sunglasses. However, the marks intentionally left by Jane on his face were still visible, appearing rather unsightly. He hesitated to let Fanny see them, fearing she would read too much into it.
Although Fanny still harbored doubts upon hearing this, she chose not to press further.
The car ride was silent, in stark contrast to the chaos at the police station..
“She dares not face me?!” Dylan’s face contorted with a fierce expression upon receiving the message from the police officer. He clenched his teeth in anger, awaiting someone to bail him out. Despite being heavily implicated by Fanny’s testimony and facing multiple charges, money had the power to sway even the most corrupt individuals. Despite the Leigh Family’s oppression by the Tuckson Family, finding a scapegoat was simple. Before long, members of the Leigh Family secured Dylan’s release. Upon his release, he immediately sought out Fanny. Upon arriving at the villa, he found it deserted. With the company still under the Tuckson Family’s control, he had to set aside his pursuit of Fanny and attend to the company’s affairs first.
Meanwhile, Angela and Ava visited the hospital to see Yoanna.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
Yoanna had made a remarkable recovery, with a steward in the ward packing her belongings in preparation for her discharge. “Angela! Aval” she exclaimed with excitement upon seeing them.
Ava inquired, “Are you being discharged today?”
Yoanna confirmed, “Yes, the hospital is too dull. The doctor said I could leave and return later for the cast removal.”
Angela, Ava noticed the cast still
Yoanna’s leg. “Congratulations on your discharge.” Despite the timing not being ideal, they genuinely shared in Yoanna’s joy.
The steward finished packing and was ready to escort Yoanna home. No one stayed at the hospital, but Angela and Ava introduced Yoanna to Sophia. Their personalities meshed well, creating a cheerful atmosphere. During their conversation, Yoanna extended an invitation to her home, which they had originally planned to visit, and expressed concern for Yoanna, so they readily agreed. They piled into a car and headed to the Tuckson residence. Tuckson Family was affluent, and Yoanna, their only daughter, was especially cherished.
Upon hearing that Yoanna was bringing friends home, Ferlisha Mason, who was Yoanna's mother, warmly greeted them at the front gate. Dinner took place at the Tuckson residence. When Harmen Tuckson, who was Yoanna's father returned. His expression was somber, but he maintained a smile in the presence of Yoanna's friends. After dinner, when the group left, Harmen's expression soured again.
Yoanna always understood Harmen well, and she guessed he probably had something on his mind, so she directly asked, "Dad, what's wrong?"
Harmen sighed before responding. The person responsible for your accident has been apprehended. You're aware, correct?"
Yoanna nodded. "Yes, you mentioned it before. Wasn't the mastermind behind it already caught?"
"He has been released!" Harmen exclaimed in frustration.
Upon hearing this, Ferlisha furrowed her brow. Given the severity of Yoanna's injuries, it seems implausible for the culprit to be released so swiftly.
"What's happening? Harmen, please explain clearly. How did he get out in less than two days? How do those police officers even operate?" Ferlisha asked anxiously.
Although the Tuckson Family did not pressure the police, they should not be considered unreliable.
"Dylan found someone to take the blame," Harmen said. The scapegoat is quite clever. It was the driver from the night of the accident.
The driver who caused the accident that night had already taken money from Dylan, and now he had given the driver more money. Not only did he take the blame for the accident, but he also wanted to take the blame for what happened to Angela and Yaxley before. However, Harmen did not know whether he had succeeded or not.
"This person is truly lawless!" Ferlisha angrily said, then instructed Yoanna. "Yoanna, stay home these days. Don't go out." She was worried about Yoanna and dared not let her go out again. After all, Yoanna had already injured her leg last time. If someone targeted her again, even if they could make up for it later. they only had one daughter, and they would be heartbroken. Yoanna also nodded obediently. After they finished talking, she went upstairs
and told Angela about it. "Angela, you need to be careful. Dylan got away by framing someone else!"
Angela had just returned home, but Jonathan was still preoccupied with company affairs and had not returned home. Upon hearing Dylan had been released, she was not too surprised but relieved. She had long known Dylan probably had a backup plan, and Yaxley had not pressured the police station, nor had he deliberately targeted Dylan with his power. Yaxley wouldn't do such things, but Dylan definitely would. ng to put in the effort, he would find a way out. "Okay, I got i In comparison, as long as Dylan was
Yoanna, you don't need to worry, but you must be more careful now."
Previously, Dylan had primarily targeted Yoanna because of Fanny. Still, now that she heard that the Tuckson Family was suppressing the Leigh Family greatly, if Yoanna went out casually, she might be targeted by Dylan again.
After exchanging some advice, they quickly hung up the phone.
When Jonathan returned, Angela was frowning in thought. "What are you thinking about?" he asked.
Angela recounted the incident of Dylan's release, and Jonathan listened attentively before saying. Leigh Family still has some influence, even though Dylan's management skills are not great.
Upon hearing his assessment, Angela knew that the Tuckson Family would not destroy the Leigh Family. Although the Tuckson Family was also prominent, individuals who upheld integrity and honesty would sometimes experience setbacks in the presence of those who were unscrupulous.
"I won't talk about him." Angela shook her head, dismissing irrelevant people before asking Jonathan, "Is everything going smoothly with your company?" Although she was not clear about the current situation of Jonathan's company, she was very clear about his intentions to expand. He had also stayed in the Northland with her to pursue a career there. They knew each other well, and he never hid anything from her.
"We've confirmed a few more collaborations, and things are progressing well, Jonathan said, ruffling her hair with an indulgent and gentle tone.
Upon hearing this good news, Angela nodded and said, "Jonathan, you're amazing!" She never hesitated to admire and praise him.
Jonathan smiled as they talked, and then the doorbell rang. Oliver brought in a five-star meal. This was a late-night meal that Jonathan had pre- ordered. Although Angela had already eaten, she ate a little with Jonathan. After the meal, they cuddled together again.
Until dawn. Angela woke up blushing, her heart pounding at the thought of last night.
Jonathan had already gone to the company, while Angela attended her training as usual. Upon entering the gate of Northland Medical University, she was halted by Christopher's unexpected presence. What surprised her even more was that Fanny stood beside Christopher. Fanny still maintained a delicate posture, almost leaning against Christopher. However, unlike usual, Christopher was wearing a mask on his face.
