Chapter 465 A Woman Beat Him Up

Jack's cry instantly silenced the room. Abandoning her outburst, Bella quickly leaned over him, wanting to touch his face.

However, she hesitated when she saw how swollen and bruised it was. There was nowhere she lay her hand on without causing him pain.

"Jack, your injuries look terrible. Do they hurt?" Bella asked, her voice quivering with concern.

Every part of Jack's body felt like it was on fire, the pain excruciating and relentless. He had never experienced such agony in his life, and now, in front of Bella, he felt utterly helpless and miserable. His expression alone conveyed the extent of his suffering, intensifying Bella's anguish and anger toward whoever had done this to him.

"Your friends all claim they don't know who did this to you. Now that you're awake, you can tell me who the culprit is."

Bella stared at Jack, desperate for a name. She needed to know who was responsible so she could exact her revenge and make that person pay dearly.

It was then that Jack fully comprehended his situation. "Where am I? How did I end up here?"

He seemed disoriented, struggling to process the reality that he was in a police station. Normally, he wouldn't have been so shaken, but now, he was like a frightened animal.

Bella quickly reassured him. "Don't worry. You'll only have to stay here for a little while longer. I'll get you out soon."

Upon hearing this, Jack began to calm down. Regardless of why he was at the police station or what he might have done, he knew his mother and the Maize family would smooth things over for him. "Now, tell me who did this to you." Bella couldn't wait any longer.

Jack's anger flared as he struggled to recall the previous night's events. His memories were flooded with images of a woman using the same tactics he had once used to torment women on him. The pain, humiliation, and rage he experienced made him want to kill her. Nonetheless, he had no idea who she was.

"I... I don't know," he spat out through gritted teeth.

This unexpected answer surprised Bella. "How can you not know? Think harder! Could it be that you've forgotten?"
