Chapter 458 | Want to Take Him in
They got back to Birmingham late at night. Jasper called Anna, and then drove Isabella to the hospital.
In the hospital, Isabella lay in the bed, her face hidden behind the covers. She paid close attention to Anna’s expression to see if she was mad at her or not.
Anna’s movements were gentle because she was redressing Jasper’s wound. Meanwhile, she said to Isabella firmly, “You don’t have to look at me that way. If had known you would do this on your own, | would not have asked you to work for me.”
Jasper had only just told Anna what had happened, which terrified her. She couldn’t imagine how remorseful and heartbroken she’d be if that man had hurt Isabella deeply.
“I’m sorry, Anna,” Isabella said sincerely.
Anna’s bandaging abilities were clearly better, so Jasper could move his fingers flexibly. He then gave her a satisfied nod.
As Anna reached for the scissors, Jasper noticed the cartoon stickers on her wrist and asked, “Since when are you interested in these childish tricks?”
Surprised, Anna looked at him and then at her sticker. She changed the subject stiffly instead of explaining as she packed her toolbox. “Is Michael dead?” she asked.
Isabella nodded.
“Did it happen by chance?”
“I’m not sure.” Isabella answered and shook her head. ;457 | Want to Take Him in
“| don’t think it’s a coincidence,” Jasper said firmly. He pulled his phone from his suit pocket and showed Anna a few photos, adding, “Sabrina first met this man when they were both in Birmingham. Micheal found out about their relationship three months ago and beat the man up. The man then stopped seeing Sabrina. Micheal then resigned and returned to Sun Town with his family.”
Anna looked at the pictures and realized what the point was. “This man, Antonio Doyle, received $200,000 in his bank account,” she frowned.
Jasper nodded and said, “You’re right. His name is Antonio Doyle. He had $200,000 in his bank account three days ago when he went to Sun Town to look for Sabrina. That is clearly not a coincidence.”
Isabella exclaimed, “Micheal decided to go out after receiving a text message from Sabrina. She, on the other hand, claimed she had not texted him ata 11.”
“Where is Antonio?” Anna asked, perplexed.
Jasper stood up and replied sternly, “Antonio isn’t going to say anything. He has a wife and a child, and that kid is only a month old. He must keep them safe, so he is extremely cautious.”
Jasper’s words made everyone nervous, and Isabella and Anna had trouble breathing.
At that moment, a nurse walked in and said, “Anna, that child is causing trouble again ”
Hearing that, Anna stood up, walked to the door, and then told Isabella to rest and have a good rest. “There’s someone | want you to meet,” she said to Jasper.
Jasper followed Anna downstairs to a children’s ward. When he opened the door, he saw a boy with orange hair walking around the ward in 457 | Want to Take Him in his bare feet. His quilt and pillow were scattered on the floor, and the room was empty except for a bed.
“Hello, Gary,” Anna greeted him in a friendly tone.
When he saw Anna, the little boy fell silent. His expression shifted from confusion to excitement, and he dashed forward, wrapping his arms around her thighs.
Jasper was taken aback and asked, “Who is this little guy, Anna? How come I’ve never seen him before?”
After hearing Jasper’s voice, the little boy looked up and acted terrified. Anna stroked him and said, “Gary, don’t be afraid. He’s a close friend of mine.”
Her words did not appear to calm Gary down. He ran to the back of the bed and let out a roar as Jasper took a few steps forward to get closer tohim
Anna looked resigned and awkward. She pulled a sticker from her coat pocket and grabbed one of Jasper’s hands. And then, she placed the sticker on the back of his hand, held it up to Gary and said, “See? He’s my friend.”
The little boy instantly calmed down when he saw the back of Jasper’s hand. He wasn’t as hostile anymore, and he was much more relaxed. He moved closer to Jasper, getting close enough to see the pattern on his hand Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
Following that, he flashed a smile and grabbed Jasper’s hand. And Jasper was stunned.
Under Anna’s guidance, Gary took out a drawing board and began writing on it. After that, he showed Anna the drawing board. A woman dressed as a nurse was on the drawing board, holding a needle towards a boy behind a hospital bed. 457 | Want to Take Him in
Anna hummed a song to comfort him after looking at it.
“Oh, I see. Is that how Matthew used to communicate with you guys when he couldn’t talk?”
Jasper’s words reminded Anna of what had happened five years before. She smiled as she remembered the good times she had with Matthew, saying, “Gary always reminded me of Matthew, so | enjoyed being with him.”
Gary was exhausted. Because Anna was by his side, it didn’t take him long to fall asleep. Anna then gently lifted his trouser leg.
When Jasper noticed the tattoo on his ankle, he asked, “What is that?”
Anna told him what she knew. When Jasper had fully comprehended it, she said, “Gary can leave the hospital tomorrow, and | wanted to take him back to the Wright’s house. But there are a lot of people there, and | doubt he’ll be safe. So,
“I’l be back in New York in a few days, and he can stay at my house. | don’t have many maids at home, and | live there alone right now. Don’t worry, it’s extremely safe there.” He cut her off before she could finish her sentence, “I’ll look into things about Michael, so you don’t have to worry that either.”
