Chapter 475 Dispelled The Barrier

When Lincoln did those things to me, there was no denying the resentment that I harbored against him. Would he have misunderstood me if I hadn’t tried to cover for Steven? Would he have done those things to hurt me if he knew the truth?

“You don’t need to apologize. After all, I admitted to the crime,” I mumbled. When I heard Lincoln’s apology, all of my hatred vanished into thin air.

“Anna, I am at a loss for words. How could you be so foolish? Fortunately, Josephine revealed the truth. If this misunderstanding persists, you would have spent several years in jail for nothing.” Though Lincoln’s gaze was reproachful, I also noticed a glimmer of guilt in his eyes.

“At that time, I didn’t think much about it or know what to do,” I explained softly.

Since it was now revealed that Steven was the culprit, I was trapped in turmoil. What’s going to happen to him?

Shortly after, they led me out of the police station. Since Josephine had revealed the truth, there was no need for the police to detain me any longer.

Nevertheless, I still felt guilty about her condition and requested Michael to drop me at the hospital for a visit.

Before her injury, we had a rocky and tense relationship because Josephine was never satisfied with me. She constantly nitpicked at every little thing I did. Nevertheless, she was still Michael’s mother. I also found myself concerned about her well-being.

When I arrived at the ward, Josephine was resting on her bed. Yet, her eyes were wide open.

Carefully, I made my way over. An awkward silence blanketed the air as I struggled to come up with something to say.

Josephine was the first to shatter the silence. “You came?” she said weakly. The corners of her lips upturned into a small smile.
