Robert, bruised and battered, kept muttering on the way back to the Carter residence.

Victor didn’t want to hear a word and used an excuse to get out of the car and leave.

In the end, Robert decided not to go back to the Carter residence either.

Robert thought, Facing Yulia, the nagging wife, was less appealing than visiting Winona at the hospital.

In Ward 305, the clock on the wall had already struck twelve, but Winona wasn’t asleep yet.

She stood by the window in her hospital gown, her body still slim except for a slight bulge in her belly.

Her face was as pale as a ghost. With wide eyes, she stared at the moon, lost in thought.

Winona thought, ‘Did Yvette get caught or not?

Winona couldn’t sleep unless she knew the result.

Robert mumbled as he pushed the door open.

Hearing his voice, Winona eagerly looked towards the door. “You’re here,” she said.

Robert didn’t notice that Winona was standing at the window and was startled by her sudden voice. “Who is that?”

Once he realized it was Winona, Robert patted his chest and said in a tone that was slightly off. “Why aren’t you sleeping in the middle of the night? What are you doing?”

Winona quickly changed her expression to look sweet and innogent. “I… how can you yell at me? I was scared all day. Your phone was off! I couldn’t sleep, worrying something happened to you.

Robert was deeply moved upon hearing her words.

After being humiliated by Claude, Robert regained his confidence with Winona.

He quickly went forward to hug Winona, and she leaned into his embrace.

A sinister smile appeared on Winona’s face in places out of Robert’s sight.
