Chapter 677 It Wasn’t Him

I wanted to explain myself, but then, I remembered the hurtful words that I had blurted out in the afternoon. Before, I told Ezekiel that I only trusted him and Shawn. But this afternoon, I assured Robert that only Shawn and he were most important to me.

Besides, I also made a lot of other upsetting remarks.

"Ms. Felix, you don't have to feel guilty. I know that Robert deliberately got you to say that to upset me. Besides, you don't need to worry about—"

Ezekiel paused for a moment and continued, "You don't need to worry about how I feel. I won't misunderstand you. I understand."

He said he understood.

I drooped my head, feeling a bit bitter in my heart.

"I want to say that Robert brought it upon himself."

"Do you think I injured him?" asked Ezekiel.

I replied honestly, "Yes, I figured it was probably you, but I believe that he brought it upon himself. Yet, it still hurts my heart. I can't bear to see him hurt or getting upset. Robert is a rather pitiful person."

Not only was Robert pitiful, but he had no grasp of social norms or worldly matters.

Ezekiel's voice turned icy all of a sudden. "It's not me."

"What?"

"I have no intention of letting him get away with it, but his injury this time has nothing to do with me. Even if he hadn't been injured this time, I would have sent someone to take care of him. But since he's injured, I'll let him off for now." His voice remained icy.

I didn't expect that Ezekiel had nothing to do with Robert's injury.

Who did it then?

"Ezekiel, even if you did something to Robert, I can understand it because he started it."

Ezekiel went silent. I held the phone tightly without speaking too, but I didn't hang up either. I stood up and walked to the other end of the corridor, where I could see the moon. It was a rare clear night in Bryxton.

Finally, I spoke. "There's the moon tonight."

Only then did Ezekiel reply, "Ms. Felix, you keep saying that Robert brought it upon himself, but you also mentioned that you couldn't bear to see him hurt or getting upset. So, what are you trying to convey? You want to pacify me, but at the same time, you don't want me to hurt him. Is that correct?"

I was speechless.

Indeed, I wanted peace.

But it was hard for me to find a balance in all of this.
