Chapter 19 +26 BONUS As an investor , it was understandable for Jessica to appear at the hospital . She sat in her exclusive office and specifically requested to see Chris . " Chris , Ms. Wilder wants to see you . " Prof. Rane looked a little troubled . " She's one of our hospital's investors , and I heard her temper isn't the best . Be careful when dealing with her . " Chris put down the plan they had just finalized , his face full of helplessness . He was the one who had the most direct experience with Jessica's ad temper , after all . They had spent five years together, and he knew her well . " Got it . " He knocked on the office door , and a single word came from inside Chris prepared himself , but the moment the door opened , something flew toward his forehead and hit him . He couldn't dodge in time , and blood immediately started trickling down from his forehead . He had known it would be like this , so he had purposely not asked anyone to guide him and went upstairs by himself . The floor was empty , rarely visited by anyone . This was a separate floor for hospital management offices . Apart from Jessica , no one else would be here . Everyone else was busy downstairs . After a few seconds of silence , Chris entered and closed the door . " Do you need something ? " When Jessica saw Chris like this , she was furious . He had been hit but didn't cry out in pain or complain , and blood was dripping from his forehead down to his cheek , his eyes starting to redden . Usually , seeing Chris like this would make Jessica feel a sense of pity for him , but right now , all she could think about was Michael , covered in blood and hurt . Compared to Michael , what was Chris's situation ? " Chris , what do you have against me and Michael ? " Jessica leaned forward slightly , one hand clenched into a fist on the table , and she hit it twice . " If you feel aggrieved , you can tell me . Why do you have to hurt Michael ? He did nothing wrong , and he's even trying to make excuses for you ! " Before Chris arrived , Jessica had received a call from Sophie , saying that Michael had woken up . And Michael , on the other end of the line , urged Jessica to stay calm , saying that Chris was just momentarily upset . The injury wasn't severe , and he asked her not to make things difficult for Chris because of him . " I didn't do anything wrong . I don't need Michael to make excuses for me . " Chris stood across from the desk , still maintaining his unyielding posture . There was a faint glint of tears in his eyes , but he still held his head high . " I told you , I didn't hurt Michael . I don't need to explain myself . " ॥ " Then how did Michael get hurt ? Was it his own doing ? " Jessica slammed her hand on the table again , her voice rising . " Chris , your excuses are getting worse and worse ! Are you saying that he almost lost his life just to frame you ? " Chris smiled faintly . " Anyone with a medical license could tell that Michael's injury isn't serious . He just nicked a blood vessel . He's not that weak . " " Chris ! You're not even repenting for your mistakes ! How did you become like this ? " He didn't want to explain , nor did he feel the need to . They were already divorced , and whether Jessica believed him didn't matter anymore . If necessary , he could be taken to court . Being in prison would be better than staying here , facing her . Chapter 19 +25 BONUS With that thought in mind , Chris turned to leave . " Did I say you could leave ? " Something else flew at him and hit hit hard in the spine . He staggered forward , grunting in pain . The crystal ashtray rolled on the carpet before stopping by Chris's feet . Love and indifference were truly obvious . When Michael was hurt even a little , she was deeply distressed , but when it came to him , she could use something so heavy . It was truly hilarious . " If Michael wants to hold me responsible , let him sue me . " With that , Chris opened the door and left . Soon after , the sound of things being thrown came from inside the room .
