Chapter 358
The atmosphere in the hospital room was thick with tension.
Elspeth used to be Frederic’s darling, his world. The man might not always stay to look after Hamilton, but whenever Elspeth felt even the slightest discomfort, Frederic would make it a point to visit her daily, no matter how busy he was.
Three days without a visit was, until now, unthinkable.
“Frederic.”
Elspeth leaned weakly against the bed, her lips trembling as she dabbed away a smear of pale lipstick, her eyes misty as she looked at Frederic, “You’ve been busy lately, haven’t you? With the company affairs and all, I understand. There’s nothing serious of me, just a perforated eardrum. I’ve already had the surgery.”
Before she could finish, Frederic cut her off, his tone somber, “Elspeth, I’ve come here to ask you something. Is what Evadne said that day true?”
Elspeth froze, her pupils quivering, “Frederic, do you still doubt me? I am your wife! You know how I am with you! I bore you two daughters, and nearly died giving birth to Marilla. I’ve given so much for you. How could I possibly have a hidden agenda, have something to do with a murder suspect! Frederic! Could it be that you don’t love me anymore? When you stop loving someone, everything they do seems suspicious; everything they do seems wrong!”
She spoke with anger, but her heart was pounding with fear.
Her indignant questions were nothing but a cover for her inner panic.
“I’m not talking about that man, Alex. Whatever is going on between you two, I’ll find out for myself.”
Frederic’s gaze was steady, “I’m talking about Myra. Was the attack on Myra orchestrated by you?”
“No! No! It wasn’t me!”
Elspeth’s voice was hoarse as she frantically denied it, “Why would I hurt her? What would I gain from it? Why would I take such a risk!”
Frederic just looked at her, his hand clenching the phone that had long since warmed from his touch.
Over the past three days, he had secretly looked into the relationship between Elspeth and Alex, and although it wasn’t as Evadne had said, where Elspeth had given her necklace
to Alex as a token of their love, there was some truth to it. Elspeth did know Alex, and they had contacted more than once.
And one more thing, although there were no call records between Elspeth and Alex on her phone, he had also checked Glynnis’s call history.
In it, there was a number that didn’t match up with her daughter’s social circle.
After some digging, the number wasn’t registered under a real name, but the location of the number matched the area where Alex was staying. Frederic’s heart sank.
His daughter, a golden child, had been socializing with elites since born and never known anyone from the slums, let alone going there.
Hence, there was only one possibility for using Glynnis to contact Alex.
