Chapter 7

Those people caused a commotion for a long time without getting any explanation, and could only leave temporarily.

As she passed by, Susan's face showed contempt, and before leaving, she didn't forget to leave a harsh warning.

"Just wait to be exposed! Are you even fit to be the captain of the rescue team?"

After the crowd dispersed, the hospital finally returned to calm.

Susan's clothes were soaked with sweat. She glared at me resentfully, as if blaming me for not speaking up for her.

Carter, who had been watching the show from the hospital room, finally stepped out.

His arm was in a sling, and as his gaze fell on my empty left leg, a hint of mockery appeared in his eyes.

"Susan has been married to you for so many years. When something like this happened just now, you didn't even defend her at all. Are you still a man?"

As soon as Carter opened his mouth, he questioned me, and Susan clearly bought into his act.

Her gaze towards Carter gradually softened.
