Chapter 639
After calming down, Mrs. Ritter immediately picked up her phone anddialed a number. "Don't kill him. Just torture him! Make sure he suffer!"The person on the other end said something that made Mrs. Ritterexplode in anger. “Do you not want your job anymore? Do you not wantyour daughter to go to film school?"
The sheriff could only nod and promise, "Okay, okay, Mrs. Ritter. Don'tworry. I'll take care of it."
After hanging up the phone, the sheriff put on a gloomy face.
“Is this old hag crazy? The Bennett family is protecting Cody secretly.How dare I make a move?"
He sighed deeply and felt like he was in such a dilemma that hecouldn't offend anyone on either side.
He was just a sheriff after all. He might as well treat Mrs. Ritter's wordsas if they were nothing. After all, compared with Mrs. Ritter, the old Mr.Bennett had more authority.
He weighed his options for a while before returning directly to his office.Larro Detention Center.
Winter anxiously waited outside the visiting room and kept lookinginside through the glass window until two minutes later when two prisonguards brought Clark over.
Clark looked much haggard now with an aged face which carried bothdesolation and gloominess.
He sat down behind the glass window and picked up the microphone.When Winter saw him, she couldn't help but feel heartbroken, but sherestrained herself very well, because she had many things she wantedto say.
However, at that moment, she didn't know what exactly should be said.“I'm in jail now. Have those people bothered you?"
Clark spoke first; his voice sounded hoarse as if he were someone whohad been traveling long distances in desert sand dunes.
His eyes fixed tightly on Winter, carrying inexplicable greediness mixedwith longing, as though she were his source of water or medicine,without which he could not survive or breathe properly.
Only seeing her made him feel alive again!
"Not yet. Are you okay?" replied Winter, struggling hard to open hermouth while trying hard not to cry, since Clark must have been havingtough times inside there!
“Not bad. I lead a quite leisure life. Food and drinks are available. Themeals are satisfying and I no longer have to worry about the officepolitics. Life is much easier than before," Clark said with a casual tone.There was a hint of sadness and helplessness in his delicate andhandsome face.
"Ugh-" Suddenly, Winter covered her mouth and turned away, dryheaving for a moment.
Clark looked at her in astonishment behind the glass, "What's wrongwith you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Winter's face turned a little pale. "I haven't been feeling well in mystomach these past few days. It's nothing serious, so don't worry."They rarely talked so calmly like this. He used to be too dominant andoverbearing.
He may even treat her very rudely sometimes.
But now he became different.
Winter took a deep breath and said, "It's getting late. I have to go back.I'll come see you another day."
"Winter." Clark suddenly called out to her.
Winter was taken aback and stared at him with wide eyes. "Clark, isthere something else?"
"Winter, listen to me. Don't come to me again,” Clark's gloomy eyesstared at her firmly. “I am an ominous person. Don't come to see me.""Don't say that. The verdict hasn't been announced yet. Maybe there'sstill hope," Winter said, choking back tears that were welling up in hereyes.
Actually, both of them know that there could never be a good outcome.But she still wanted to say that to comfort Clark.
"There's no hope. You should leave Larro and replace a quiet place whereno one knows you and live well," Clark said as he stood up and slowlywalked away.
His hands were handcuffed and his feet were wrapped in shackles,making his steps appear extremely heavy, and his back seemed to bestooping.
Winter stood still, and her tears finally burst out.
Clark...
She wiped away the tears on her face and went straight to the hospitalafter leaving the detention center.
An hour later, when she looked at the test results, she was both happyand sad.
She didn't expect that she was pregnant again.
Why did fate have to play such a trick on her? After Clark had anaccident, she unexpectedly became pregnant again.
She looked at the cloudy sky and made a bold decision.
Taking a deep breath, she got into the red Porsche and started the car.The car shot out like an arrow and merged into the traffic flow.
Urgford Hospital.
Outside the window, heavy snowflakes were falling silently, coveringthe earth.
Sylvia sat by the hospital bed, slicing an apple for the old Mr. Bennett."Thank you for that call the other day. Without it, Cody might havesuffered even more,” she said.
She cut the apple into small pieces and placed them on a small platebefore offering it to the old Mr. Bennett.
