Chapter 1244

A trace of gloom flashed across Zephyr’s face. “You’re right. I don’t understand, so Nicholas knows

you, right?” RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

A trace of nostalgia flashed in Riley’s eyes: “Yes, Nicholas understood me. Unfortunately, I didn’t

understand him at that time.”

By the time Riley really understood Nicholas, he had already disappeared from this world forever.

Riley’s words made Zephyr’s face suddenly darkened. Zephyr hurried to Riley’s bedside and grabbed

her chin. Riley, you are really shameless. Since you think he understands you, why did you agree to

marry me then? You enjoy being pursued by men, don’t you? But it made me a laughingstock in

Lommore!””

“No matter how shameless I am, I won’t be as shameless as you,” Riley said coldly. “I was forcefully

sent to a psychiatric hospital. Yet, you married Harriet three months later. Four months later, your child

was born and announced as premature birth. But, I think both of you know whether it is premature birth

or not.”

Suddenly, Zephyr looked embarrassed. He felt as though he could not hide his mistake from Riley.

That night, Zephyr got upset when he saw Riley together with Nichol Afterward, he bumped into Harriet

and knew that Harriet loved him. the past, Zephyr never once cared about Harriet.

But that night, he drank with Harriet and spent the whole night with h as if to retaliate against Riley.

After Riley was sent to the psychiatric hospital, Harriet told Zephyr that she was pregnant with his child.

Harriet even had the examination report from the hospital. If Zephyr did not believe it, Harriet would

give birth and send the baby for DNA testing.

In the end, Zephyr married Harriet.

At that time, it made no difference who Zephyr married.

“So, you’re blaming me now? If you and Nicholas hadn’t been involved in the past, why would I marry

Harriet? Riley, you have brought this upon yourself!” Zephyr scolded.

“I brought this upon myself?” Riley sneered. “So you knew I wasn’t mentally ill right from the beginning.

Yet, you still let me be locked up there, right?”

In fact, this question had been in Riley’s mind thousands of times! She wanted to ask Zephyr in person

countless times!

However, Riley did not expect it to sound so calm when it finally came out of her mouth. Even she was

surprised.

Perhaps it was because she had given up all hopes that she did so.

Her serenity was unbelievable.

Zephyr almost subconsciously wanted to avoid looking into Riley’s eyes.

At that time, he deliberately forced himself not to think about Riley. When others told him that Riley

became mentally ill because she missed Nicholas too much and had to be forcefully locked in the

hospital for treatment, Zephyr was jealous and resentful.

Zephyr hated Riley for loving Nicholas so much!

The thought that Riley might have been framed had crossed Zephyr’s mind. After all, the biggest

beneficiaries of Riley’s forced hospitalization were Harriet and the Summer family.

But this thought was soon overwhelmed by his hatred. Later, Zephyr gradually became numb and

convinced himself that Riley was indeed mental patient.

Yet, right now, Riley’s question made Zephyr feel extremely embarrass

“This is just a preliminary diagnosis for now. There is no expert consultation yet,” Zephyr said.

“That’s right. So, I’m still a mental patient in your eyes, right?” Riley said to Zephyr, “Don’t you think it’s

ridiculous for you to come here and talk with me?”

“I came here today just to ask you… Were you pregnant with my child back then?” Zephyr stared at

Riley and asked.

Before her accident, Riley had called Zephyr and told him that she was pregnant.

At that time, Zephyr was overjoyed. Unfortunately, Riley had a traffic accident and was even in the

same car as Nicholas. Nicholas even died protecting her.

In an instant, everyone in Lommore said that Riley had cheated on Zephyr. When Zephyr arrived at the

hospital and asked about Riley’s condition, the nurse claimed Riley was not pregnant at all.

Riley lied to Zephyr! Perhaps, Riley did that because she was afraid that Zephyr might break off the

engagement. She wanted to make sure that she could marry into the Scott family!

As such, Zephyr did not think much about it later on.

However, for the past few days, Zephyr somehow remembered the phone call Riley made that year.

“Why did Riley tell me that she was pregnant back then? Was she hiding something else? Or maybe,

she had no choice but to do so?”

Riley looked at Zephyr coldly. Her red lips slightly opened, and her hoarse voice said with a trace of

indifference, “No, I lied to you.”

The child that was once in her stomach had been long gone. When Riley gave birth to a dead baby in

the psychiatric hospital, Zephyr was most likely having a good time with Harriet,

Zephyr’s expression changed slightly. “You are indeed full of lies. Nicholas must have been fooled by

your lies back then as well. How did you lie to him? Said you love him? Said you didn’t want to leave

him? maybe you’ve already slept with him…

Slap!

A crisp and loud slap resounded in the ward.

Riley slapped Zephyr so hard that his face tilted to one side.

A trace of anger suddenly appeared on Zephyr’s face. He raised his hand and wanted to retaliate.

But when Zephyr saw the hand Riley used to slap him, he froze. There was a missing finger on her

right hand!

“Zephyr, back when I was in love with you, I have never done anything that let you down.” Riley raised

her chin and glared at Zephyr. “If you want to insult me, go ahead. I was blind to have loved you, but

you don’t have the right to insult Nicholas. If you insult him again, I will go all out and fight you!”

“You claimed you hadn’t done anything wrong, but now you want to fight me because of Nicholas. How

can you tell me that you have not fallen in love with Nicholas?” Zephyr roared.

“Yes, I love Nicholas now, but it’s too late.” That was Riley’s answer.

In an instant, Zephyr looked extremely upset.

The air was filled with tension. Just then, there were sounds of fighting outside the ward. Then the door

of the ward was pushed open. Obviously, the people brought by Zephyr outside the ward had been

subdued, and one of them stumbled into the room awkwardly.

“Mr. Scott… I’m sorry. We didn’t manage to stop them.”

Zephyr looked coldly at Jonathan and Rosalie who walked in. After returning the other day, Zephyr had

checked out Jonathan and Rosalie’s identities.

Naturally, Zephyr was surprised at what he had found out.
