Chapter 820 Who’s the Miserable One?
Not long after, the police arrived.
Martha was taken away by the police with a pale face. Before leaving, she
looked back at Joe but said nothing in the end.
She knew very well that Joe would not forgive her no matter what she said.
Perhaps…
Martha lowered her eyes. Fortunately, she had a backup plan. She didn’t
know if it could save her.
The ambulance soon arrived and sent Hope, who was injured and
unconscious, to the hospital. As for whether he could survive or not in the
end, it depended on his willpower.
Enter title…
After Martha and Hope were taken away, Joe looked at the mess on the
ground, and his heart was full of emptiness.
Joe had never imagined that the truth of his father’s death would be so cruel.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSensing that he was in a bad mood, Charlotte took the initiative to hug him.
“The one who should be sad is the one who did something wrong. Joe…”
Before Charlotte could finish her words, Joe kissed her deeply.
Charlotte didn’t expect him to do this. She wanted to push him away, but
when she remembered what had happened during this period, she still didn’t
do anything.
Fortunately, Joe recovered very quickly. Not long after, he looked back at
Charlotte, “I’m sorry for scaring you…”
Charlotte shook her head. It happened so fast that before she could be afraid,
the police had taken Hope and Martha away.
Not long after Martha was taken to the police station, there was news from
the hospital.
Martha had knocked him so hard that although Hope was not dead, his brain
nerves were hurt and Hope would not wake up in a short time.
As for when he would wake up…
Even the doctor was not sure.
The whole process of interrogating Hope had been recorded by Joe, and now
it became the best evidence.
Martha was suspected of murder and intentional injury. These two crimes
were enough to sentence her to more than ten years of imprisonment.
However, the case of Ralph was too complicated. The police still needed
some time to investigate before closing the case.
When the Pitman family found out that Martha had committed the crime, they
immediately came to apologize to Sir Smith and Joe. Then, they ignored
Martha.
The Pitman family didn’t even hire a lawyer for Martha.
After Joe found out about it, he hired a lawyer for Martha.
Seeing Charlotte’s surprised expression, Joe smiled, “You don’t think I’ll hire a
lawyer for her, do you?”
Charlotte nodded. “I thought… you hated her.”
Joe stood by the window and looked at the twinkling stars in the dark sky.
Joe still remembered that when he was a child, although Martha was not very
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmpatient with him, she often told him stories at night.
However, he didn’t know when his parents began to quarrel with each other
frequently. Although they avoided him most of the time, he could always find
some clues.
At that time, he had gradually become numb to his parents’ divorce and even
had a trace of expectation.
However, Joe had never imagined that things would end up like this.
“For my father, I should call the police. But she is still my mother, and I should
hire a lawyer for her.”
A hint of sarcasm appeared in Joe’s tone. He had never expected that Martha
would put on such a show to gain his trust.
Charlotte also knew that no matter how she comforted Joe now, he could not
be at ease, so she could only accompany him silently.
Hope was severely injured, and Martha was in prison. Smollett was the only
one who was still out there.
