Dylan’s pace quickened after the call.
A short time later, Dylan, who had been granted a visit with Gia’s help, opened the door and entered Amaya’s hospital room as soon as he arrived.
Amaya was sitting on the bed, crunching on an apple.
Amaya looked so brazen that Dylan was dumbfounded and couldn’t help but feel angry.
How could she swallow an apple after beating someone like a dog?
“Who is it?”
Amaya asked with a puzzled face as she saw the unfamiliar man approaching with a cold air.
At first, she thought Felix had come to see her when she heard that someone wanted to meet her.
Amaya was surprised and couldn’t help but be embarrassed to face the unexpected, uninvited guest.
“The husband of the woman you assaulted,” Dylan pulled up a chair and sat across from her, answering coldly.
However, Dylan’s lips twisted at Amaya’s inability to react immediately.
“Did you assault a lot of people?”
Dylan was horrified to learn that the woman in front of him was Lola’s patient.
He knew that hospitals couldn’t be selective about their patients, as Gia had said, but he felt as if Lola’s injury was the hospital’s fault.
“Who?” Amaya asked again.
She was definitely seeing this man for the first time.
Amaya couldn’t help but feel on edge because she sensed a strong and cold energy from the unfamiliar and handsome man.
“Lola’s husband.”
“Wh, who? Lola…”
Amaya, who was stammering as if to confirm, couldn’t finish her sentence, and dropped the apple on the floor with a thud.
“I think you understood me clearly.”
She understood clearly.
Amaya’s eyes widened, and she hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand. She was surprised that the man was Lola’s husband, but there was another reason.
Seeing the man, she thought Nia would be greedy for him.
“Amaya, who ordered you to do something worse than a dog?”
Dylan didn’t think he needed to be polite to a woman like this, so he asked bluntly. But Amaya wasn’t the type to answer obediently.
She let out a sneer.
“Why should I answer your questions?”
“Don’t be insolent!”
Amaya flinched at the cold voice.
The man seemed to be a very different species from Felix.
The man’s eyes and expression were so cold that Amaya felt as if she were standing in the Siberian wilderness.
“Amaya, even if you don’t tell me, I can find out as much as I want. That’s my specialty. But the reason I came all the way here is to give you a chance. So you should think carefully.”
As time went on, Amaya, who was overwhelmed by Dylan’s momentum, lost her initial composure and began to tremble with anxiety.
“From what I can see, you’re trying to avoid the police investigation by making all sorts of excuses, but don’t even dream of it. There’s no way for you to escape.”
“……”
Amaya’s lips twitched as if her heart was wavering.
Dylan didn’t miss a single change in expression on her face and watched her sharply, giving her firm advice.
“There’s only one way for you to live. Cooperate with the police investigation and tell the truth in your testimony. Then maybe you can reduce your sentence.”
And Dylan stood up.
He wanted to interrogate her to the end and find out who ordered her to do such a heinous thing.
However, this was a hospital, and Gia and Lola worked here, so he was worried that his actions might harm them or have a negative impact.
In any case, Amaya would not escape the law.
He would make sure of it, no matter what it took.
He also intended to find the accomplice at all costs. So Dylan decided to stop here for today and left the hospital room without regret.
*****
After Dylan visited the hospital room, Amaya was in turmoil, with various thoughts swirling in her mind.
She couldn’t help but struggle with the thought of telling the truth and confessing everything, saying that she didn’t need to take the blame alone, and the thought of how to persuade Nia to get what she wanted.
Even in the face of an urgent situation, Amaya was only thinking selfishly about what would benefit her.
Yet she didn’t feel a shred of guilt.
Suddenly, Amaya heard the sound of the door opening and complained without even looking up.
“Why? Do you have more to say?”
She thought that the man who called himself Lola’s husband had come back because he still had something to say.
“Tsk,” she heard a clicking of the tongue, and as footsteps approached and a strong perfume scent intensely stimulated her nose, Amaya slowly raised her eyes.
“Ugh…”
The moment she saw the middle-aged woman dressed in luxury brands from head to toe and wearing flashy accessories, Amaya’s eyes widened in surprise. And a suppressed breath escaped from her slightly parted lips.
“M, Mother…”
Amaya stammered, unable to speak properly.
Felix’s mother, that is, her mother-in-law, had come to visit the hospital room.
This was definitely not a trivial matter.
Seeing Amaya unable to close her mouth in surprise, her mother-in-law clicked her tongue and muttered.
“You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”
Even seeing a ghost wouldn’t be this surprising.
Amaya found her mother-in-law to be quite a burden and a difficult person.
It was clear that her mother-in-law wouldn’t say anything good when she came all the way here.
As expected, “Why are you dragging your feet without getting a divorce?”
Her mother-in-law asked sharply in a sharp voice.
