Chapter 0042

“Well…, we were arguing, and he slapped me… really hard. I was standing, and I lost my balance. I hit my head when I fell, and I tried to catch myself with my hands, but I ended up hitting the tea table. After that, I pulled the tablecloth down, and hot food spilled all over me.”

“Oh, Angela, what a series of unfortunate events,” Philip said sympathetically. “But don’t worry, we’ll take care of it. I’ll start by checking that head injury. We’ll need to get an X–ray. Peter, could you help her to the next room?”

“No need. I’ve seen all this before, and I’d like to stay, just to make sure I know how to take care of her.”

“Angela, is it alright if Peter stays?”
