Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 630

Hearing this, Mack flew into a rage. "B*stard, are you going to hit me now? I must beat you to death here today!"

Ben and David hurriedly stopped him, "Calm down..."

"Get out of my way!" Mack was so angry that his nerves were bulging.

Standing beside him, Ben and David asked, "Jimmy didn't do anything wrong. Why did you get so angry?"

"He has killed someone! Wasn't that something serious enough? As I said, I must beat him to death today. Let go of me!" barked Mack.

However, the two officers still holding him back.

As Mack gasped, he suddenly went limp on the chair and muttered to himself, "Your fingerprints have been found on the crime scene. When Ella got the report, she fainted on the spot... Why did you do such a contemptible thing? The evidence is there. What can you say about it?"

Raising his head, Mack looked at him with a haggard visage. "Did you kill the man?"

Without uttering anything, Jimmy bit his flesh while holding back something.

Mack thus shook his head in disappointment. "What else can I say? The fingerprints are there..."

Then, he got up with disappointment and anger. "You will be punished for what you have done, and I will not intervene, for you are no longer my son." NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

With that, he turned around and left.

David and Ben were shocked by those harsh words.

After all, they were still a family.

Moreover, Mack was a powerful figure in the legal system. If he chose not to intervene in this matter, then Jimmy would be in big trouble.

"Jimmy..."

Ben and David immediately chased after Mack, hoping that he would have mercy on his own son.

There were only two people left in the room. Lifting his head, he looked at Ariah beside him and said in a low voice, "Come over here."

"I'm fine..."

"Let me have a look."

Jimmy then lifted her long hair and caressed her neck. The coldness from his fingers made Ariah's body tremble.

The water splashed on her scalded her skin.

Pursing his lips, he asked, "Does it hurt?"

Ariah shook her head. "No..."

How could she still care about it when so many things were going on?

Jimmy then put down her hair and suggested, "Let David take you to the hospital later."

"I am fine, really..."

"Listen to me."

Ariah thus glanced at him and agreed. "OK, I'll follow him."

"Alright," Jimmy answered.

"I'll persuade Mack later. He was too angry just now, and I'm sure that's not what he meant."

Following a chuckle, Jimmy said, "I know his temper better than you do. He'd never take his words back."

The harsh words showed how indignant he was.

Before Ariah could say something, David had pushed open the door. "Jimmy, Mack has left angrily."

"It's okay." Jimmy looked at Ariah and continued, "David, please take Ariah to the hospital for a check-up."

David knew that Jimmy was worried about her injury. "Let's go, Ariah."

"Don't worry, I'm fine..."

"Ariah, please follow Ben," interrupted Jimmy.

"But you are..."

"I'll be fine. I'll still be locked up here tonight." Jimmy narrowed his eyes and added, "Please check something for me."

Ariah immediately sat up straight, "What is it?"

"Please let me know about the update of the surgery."

"A surgery?" Ariah was stunned. "Whose surgery is that?"

"I was talking about Kobi."

Ariah's eyes widened. "Is he still alive?"

Jimmy then raised his eyebrows. "I can't be sure whether he's alive; it depends on the doctors. When the police brought me here, he had been sent to the emergency room."

The surgery should be over by now.

The outcome would play a decisive role in Jimmy's case.

"Does that mean he didn't die on the spot?"

Ariah's anger gradually subsided. She thus glared at David and grumbled, "Why didn't you make it clear?"

She really thought that Kobi was dead!

There was a huge difference between the two!

David scratched his hair awkwardly and answered, "Sorry, I forgot to tell you that. Please don't look at me like that..."

Ariah was instantly rendered speechless.

"Well, please go to the hospital first," Jimmy urged.

Knowing that Ariah was worried about him, Jimmy smilingly reassured, "I still have Ben here."

What he said was right.

Therefore, Ariah stood up and was ready to leave with David.

"Wait a minute."

Jimmy suddenly called out to her.

Ariah turned around to look at him.

"I forgot to tell you something. Emily was also at the scene, and I think she is in the hospital now. You can talk to her if you see her later."

Ariah then got even more confused. Why did Emily go to the scene? Hadn't she gone missing?

Those questions shrouded Ariah like a veil of fog, and it seemed that she could fall into a bottomless abyss anytime now.

In the hospital.

Ariah was anxious to check on Kobi, but David wanted her to undergo a check-up for her injury first.

Ariah had no choice but to look for a doctor, after which they rushed to the operating theatre.

There were already people waiting outside, including Mack, who was sitting motionlessly on the bench.

Emily, who looked despondent, was also sitting there while sobbing intermittently.

Ariah then walked over to her father. "Mack."

When he heard the voice, he raised his head to look at her with his reddened eyes.

Mack seemed to have aged a lot in just a few hours.

This was undoubtedly a huge blow to an old man.
