The two words said by the police scared Jean and diminished his arrogance. The food in his hand fell back onto his plate.

He fumbled about and asked Nina, "Tyrone is dead?”

“You injured him so badly. Even the glass was smashed into his head. What did you think would happen?” Nina got mad when she saw Jean's terrified expression. She had never asked for him to be rich. Actually, as long as he took things seriously, he would not have a problem earning enough for his living expenses. However, he had disappointed her. "What's wrong? Are you scared now? Why didn't you think of the consequences when you smashed his head so forcefully back then?"

Suddenly, Jean's eyes became red. Tyrone was dead. Even if he was willing to pay the compensation, he would not be able to escape from the law...

"It wasn't my intention to hit him so hard. It was Marie. She kept inciting me.” Jean wanted to push all the blame on Marie.

Nina got even angrier when she saw Jean's childish behavior. He even mentioned Marie. "Marie had let you down in the past, so why can't you be more mature now? Just because she incited you, you had to go along with it? If Marie asks you to commit suicide, will you blindly do so as well?"

Jean could not be bothered about Nina's lecture. He was only thinking about how he could not afford to be imprisoned. He held Nina's hand. "Nina, I'm your brother. I can't go to prison. You must look for Percy and help me out of this situation. From now on, I won't get involved in anything related to Marie. I'm your brother, and our mother is still expecting me to get a job to cover her living expenses! I can't go to prison now."

He had once tasted life in prison, and he did not want to experience it again.

The other patients in the ward watched this scene, and none of them made a single noise.

As Nina was talking, her eyes turned red. "You'd better pray hard that Tyrone is alright. Otherwise, I'm afraid even Percy won't be able to help you out."

Jean was dumbfounded and looked at her. "What do you mean? Are you saying he's not dead yet?"

"He's in the ICU now. We have yet to know what's going to happen in the future. I'm guessing that the police will be here to question you in a while more. You should be more alert.” Nina coldly took her hand away and turned around to leave.

"Nina, Nina!" Jean was afraid to face the police. After all, Tyrone was still in the ICU.
