Chapter 367

Mia seemed quilty as she looked at Felix. She tried to discern his expression from his bruised and

swollen lace. However, she eventually gave up because she couldn’t tell anything from his face.

Tentativeby, she said. Felix, rest assured. I’ll take care of the medical expenses. This is just a

misunderstanding, and I hope you won’t hold my brother responsible.”

it her brother was held accountable for the attack, he would be in deep waters. She didn’t want him to

end up in trouble for her sake.

Moreover, Janice seemed like a difficult person. She was certain that Janice would definitely go after

her brother like a hyena.

In an instant. Felix was plunged into a state of dilemma. Could it be that he misheard them back then?

He remembered them warming him to stay away from a certain person’s wife. Did he mishear them?

Perhaps they told him to stay away from this person’s sister. The two phrases were quite similar, and

could easily be misheard.

He was bewildered as well. After all, Mia’s ex–husband was about to divorce her. There was no way

that he’d beat him up for her sake.

Everything would make sense if the culprit was Mia’s brother.

Just then, Janice entered the ward.

Felix immediately flipped the page over, covering what he had just written. He glanced up and saw two

police officers making their way in.

Mia felt extremely guilty. She wondered whether she should inform Cladde first, or she should contact

Jason right away so he could prepare for a lawsuit and get Claude out of trouble.

Her heart stalled as the officer began their routine questioning. Silently, she texted Jason on

WhatsApp. “I want to ask you something. How many years would one be sentenced for intentional

assault?

She could at least prepare herself once she grasped the details.

Jason was puzzled by her question. “What’s wrong? Did you get into trouble?”

“Jason, answer me first.”

“Well it depends. If you hit someone, it’s fine. But if someone hits you, they’ll end up with a life

+15 BONOS

Mia felt amused by his response. Wasn’t he too arrogant?

“Really?” she asked tentatively.

“Though I’m a habitual liar, I never lie to you.” As a talented lawyer, he was extremely eloquent. He

spoke differently depending on the situation, but he was still quite normal when it came to Mia, his only

sister.

Reluctantly, she believed in him. Now, she could finally feel more at ease with a lawyer in her family.

She glanced at Felix absently, unaware of what he wrote on his notepad..

Soon, the police officers got up and stated, “Basically, we’ve grasped the general situation. We’ll

update you once there’s any progress in our investigation.”

Janice was bewildered. “How long is it going to take? Look at how bad his injuries are! You have to

quickly investigate and catch the culprit. I’ll make sure to make him pay a heavy price!”

Mia’s heart stalled. She knew Janice wouldn’t just let the culprit off the hook, given how much she

cherished Felix.

Nonetheless, he held Janice and shook his head.

Throwing her arms around Felix, she cried bitterly, “Felix, I couldn’t even bear to lay a finger on you

ever since you were a child. Once I find out who did this to you, I will fight them since I’m already this

old!”
