Chapter 290: The Poisoner is Someone Else
Walker Richter walked over to the couch and sat down, half squinting his eyes as he asked me rhetorically, “What do you think about this?”
“How else can I look at it, isn’t it obvious, the only one who has a grudge against THE Richter family and wants the old lady’s life is Qi Ben, this is definitely his doing.”
The corner of Walker Richter’s mouth lightly raised: “What you can think of, how can Qi Ben not think of it, he is now difficult to protect himself, and does not dare to commit a crime at this time.”
I was shocked, “You mean someone framed Ki Ben?”
Walker Richter is also right, this is too obvious, and the more simple things are often not simple.
Qi Ben had a falling out with THE Richter family one foot, and then Mr. Richter’s mother was poisoned the next, it was easy to think that Qi Ben had done it.
Walker Richter nodded, “I’ve been sending people to keep an eye on Qi Ben, he can’t be a demon.”
“Then who is the one who harmed the old lady?” I looked to Walker Richter, “Do you already have an answer in mind?”
Walker Richter pondered for half a second and shook his head, “Not quite clear, it is possible that it is an enemy recruited during the business competition, and it is also possible … that it is an enemy from the early years.”
“Early years?”
“the Richter family can come to today, naturally it will not be smooth sailing.” Walker Richter half propped up his jaw, posture lazy, tone but cold: “No matter who it is, I will make him pay.”
Vengeance, this is Walker Richter’s character.
I suddenly reacted to what he just said.
“You’ve been sending people to keep an eye on Qi Ben, so where is he now? Is Susan Su with Qi Ben?”
Walker Richter, if he had always known Qi Ben and Susan Su’s whereabouts, even if he didn’t get along with Yao Mubai and didn’t say anything about Susan Su’s whereabouts, had he forgotten how Susan Su had harmed our child in the first place?
Is he going to let Susan Su go?
Qi Ben killed Nancy Richter, he also do not for Nancy Richter revenge?
Too many questions at once.
I stared at Walker Richter for fear of missing his answer or not telling the truth.
He was trying to lie to hide it from someone, and I couldn’t really tell.
After a long time, he said, “Yes.”
His one word set me on fire at once.
“Walker Richter, why don’t you put them in jail, one for harming your child and one for harming your sister, how can you stand by and watch them get away with it.”
“Not yet.” His flippant comment made me angrier.
“I don’t care what else you have in mind, Walker Richter, don’t you forget about the child who didn’t even have a chance to come into this world.”
He promised in a hushed voice, “I promise you that when the time is right, I will collect the debt they owe me.”
“Then you remember that. ” I pushed down the fire in my heart and guessed what Walker Richter was doing by not making a move, for the man behind Qiben.
The room was calm again, I looked at him and asked the question I had been wanting to ask tonight, “Walker Richter, when did your ears … go deaf?”
At that, Walker Richter’s pupils plummeted with surprise.
He thought he had hidden it well, but he didn’t expect that he was still known by me.
I approached him and kept facing him in order to let him know what I was saying, “Walker Richter, is the reason for pushing me away the reason why you can’t hear?”
His eyes darkened and they dropped without looking at me.
“Alva, how do you expect me to love you again in this silent world.” He smiled bitterly, “I sacrificed you to the interests of THE Richter family and don’t deserve you or even your forgiveness anymore.”
My heart shook hard, “That’s why you said you were sorry in the interview, Walker Richter, not everything in this world can be wiped out with an apology.”
The thing about relationships is that they can’t be tainted with a bit of scheming, it’s two naked hearts leaning together.
He looked at me, “Alva, I Walker Richter have never been sorry for anyone in my life, only you, from the time you came back to me again, I knew who you were, but I didn’t reveal it, and I knew all about it when something happened to one of our children, but I didn’t protect them, I didn’t protect you, and it was me that made you suffer from the loss of your son twice, and it was also me that made you almost died twice at the hands of Susan Su. I owe you more than I can ever repay in this lifetime.”
This was the first time Walker Richter had said so much.
This time I also clearly saw the moistness in the corners of his eyes, he clenched his hands, as if he was suppressing something, and pointed to his ears, “I’m actually especially happy that these ears have gone deaf, I think this is God’s punishment for me, it’s that I’m too much of a jerk, and I deserve this retribution.”
A deeply remorseful Walker Richter left me momentarily at a loss for words.
To say that I never complained?
That’s something even I don’t believe myself.
I let out a long breath, “Maybe you’re my karma, and I just deserve it.”
I had thought of all the possibilities from the moment I fell in love with Walker Richter.
He looked at me, looked and looked, we suddenly both smiled.
Love is a thing that you can’t really tell.
We have been through too much, love, hate, resentment, and now we can still look at each other a smile, it is worth it.
I pointed to the door, “I’m really going to my room this time.”
He smiled but did not say, I will bring the door, closed the door at that moment, as if there is something in the heart and also closed.
A door, separated us into two worlds, from now on, no more interactions.
The next day.
When I left the Richter family’s old house, I bumped into Fin Wilson, who was returning from outside.
Her face was haggard, she hadn’t slept all night, and when she saw me, she was surprised and glanced behind me, supposedly to make sure that Walker Richter was or wasn’t behind her.
“What are you doing here, and how could Walker keep you to stay?” Fin Wilson frowned, very upset with me.
Her attitude towards me had always depended on Walker Richter.
Now that Walker Richter is deaf in both ears, and it’s because he went to save me, Fin Wilson will naturally put the blame on me.
“Good morning, Auntie.” I greeted her in the spirit of politeness.
After saying that, I was about to leave.
Fin Wilson suddenly asked me, “Are you close to Yao Mubai?”
Her words were abrupt and made me feel strange.
I didn’t know the purpose of her question, so I casually replied, “I’m not familiar with him.”
Fin Wilson wrinkled her eyebrows, clearly with an expression of disbelief, “I’ve heard that you’re also on good terms with two of Yao Mubai’s subordinates, those two I’ve dealt with, and if it wasn’t for Yao Mubai giving the word, they wouldn’t have gotten close to you.”
“Auntie, if you have something to say, just say it, no need to beat around the bush.”
I was too lazy to play dumb with her.
Fin Wilson took a look around, mysteriously pulled me to the side and asked me, “Where exactly did Yao Mubai go?”
This was an even stranger question.
“Auntie, why are you concerned about where Yao Mubai went, now the matter of the old madam’s poisoning is the key, right?”
Fin Wilson pursed her lips, wanting to say something, the words reached her mouth, then said, “It’s fine, you go.”
Simply inexplicable.
In fact, seriously, I kinda admire Fin Wilson, helping Walker Richter to trick Yao Bin, and also let Yao Bin raise Yao Murong, I am curious, how Fin Wilson let Yao Bin think that Yao Murong is his own son, and treat him as his own.
Now the rumor that Walker Richter is not Yao Bin’s son has been broken, and I don’t see Yao Bin tearing his face off with the Richter family, or with Fin Wilson, it’s very calm.
Yao’s family and the Richter family are both mysterious and impenetrable.
I went back to THE HILL FAMILY, and as soon as I entered the door, I saw the person sitting on the sofa, and the first thought that popped into my head at that moment was to flee.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
