Chapter 1471

THE MOOD IN THE WARD

She said, “Yeah, she’s got only herself to blame for everything. If she weren’t that wicked and were a little kinder, she wouldn’t have come to such an end.” I wonder if she’s regretted it now. After all, her life’s coming to an end at the young age of just over 20 years old.

“Alright, let’s not talk about her anymore lest it gets us down.” Toby stroked her hair, only to stand up immediately when he noticed that her hair was hot to the touch. “Come on, let’s go back and stop basking in the sun. It’s not good to spend too much time in the sun, anyway.”

“Uh-huh.” Sonia also knew about this, so she nodded and complied without protest. She went back into the room first, touching the wall along the way, while Toby stayed behind to have a final word with Tom.

Tom said to him, “By the way, President Fuller, the court will formally begin hearing the case against Mr. Lore tomorrow. Would you like to attend the hearing?”

“No, it’s not necessary,” Toby refused expressionlessly while closing his eyes. He then said, “I’ll attend the final hearing.” I’m gonna ask Mr. Lore if he’s ever regretted having killed Professor Randall back then, he thought. “By the way, how’s Asher Dafoe doing?” This was the only thing he wanted to know right now, for this guy had nearly gotten him and Sonia killed in a fire. Having never asked about Asher for such a long time, he wondered how the man was doing at the moment.

Tom answered, “Asher is still in police custody for the time being. There’s something wrong with his financial records, so the finance department is still looking into them. He’ll be held accountable for all his crimes when the investigation into his financial records is done, which probably won’t take long.”
