Facade of Love

Chapter 273 Two Men Who Could Not Be Driven Away

When I heard his question, I belatedly realized that I had not told anyone about this.

Moreover, since I left the police station until now, I had been in the hospital except for the brief encounter at the police station entrance. I had not said or done anything. How did Charlie suddenly find out about my frostbite?

I looked up at Charlie, feeling puzzled.

Seeing my gaze, Charlie gave a faint smile and said, “I saw your swollen hands at the police station entrance, so I had someone inquire. I’m sorry I couldn’t rescue you earlier and you had to suffer so much. I thought…

He paused, and his expression darkened slightly. He glanced sideways at Idris and continued, You have been in Lake City for many years, Mr. Young. I overestimated you. You couldn’t even take care of one person.”

His words carried many implications.

Idris frowned slightly, but he was not one to waste words on people. He was not aware of what happened at the police station, and if he had not accidentally noticed the swelling on my hands just now, he probably still would not know.

Ignoring Charlie’s mockery, he looked at Charlie coldly and said, “It seems like I was too gentle during the day.”

His words were chilling, especially considering Charlie’s bandaged face and the fact that he had been wheeled in. It not only carried a threatening tone, but also a strong sense of irony.

Charlie was visibly angered, and his once handsome face turned as dark as coal.

In this relatively luxurious hospital room, the atmosphere had become tense. Worried that these two might start fighting again, I quickly raised my hand and rubbed my temples. Frowning tiredly, I said, “I’m a bit tired. Both of you should go. I want to rest for a while.”
