Chapter 243

Cheryl was dragged away by Tyler amidst her cries and protests, casting a hateful gaze at the receding figure of Hackett in her eyes.

This man must still love Valeria the most, willing to shield her een from sulfuric acid. Wasn't that love! However, the more Hackett displayed his affection for Valeria, the more hatred brewed in Cheryl's heart.

In the hospital, Valeria was having her wounds treated. Her injures were actually quite minor, just a few drops had splashed onto her arm at the time, and they were even through her clothing.

Just when she was about to lose hope in this man, she found herself owing Hackett an even greater debt.

The nurse replied, "It's not too severe, but the area is quite large. He may have to sleep on his stomach for a month, and he might run a fever in the next couple of days, so you have to pay attention to the treatment of the wound. Having finished, the nurse left.
