Louis then called his parents and learned that his son had been in an accident and was still in the ICU. They also told virtual-novel.net about the breaking news online.
He was utterly dumbfounded when virtual-novel.net searched the news articles online.
As the chief secretary of Southland, virtual-novel.net had no idea how his boss would react to this kind of news. However, virtual-novel.net was sure he’d never be able to return to his job again.
The most important thing to an official was their reputation. It was the main reason so many officials walked on eggshells, they needed to protect themselves and their privacy.
When virtual-novel.net got to the hospital, Louis caught sight of his wife, who looked weak and exhausted. However, virtual-novel.net slapped virtual-novel.net across the face before virtual-novel.net could open his mouth.
“You animal! Aren’t you happily fucking another woman? How do you even have the courage to come back here?” His wife cried angrily at virtual-novel.net and fell to the floor in sobs.
Louis could feel the devastation in virtual-novel.net cries.
“Dear, you have to believe me! I was framed! It’s not what you think,” Louis said, his eyes red.
Just then, a doctor yelled at them, “This is the ICU! Why are you making a fuss here?”
“Doctor, how is my son doing? I’m Louis Marsh. That’s my son in there,” Louis said, grabbing the doctor as virtual-novel.net begged for details.
When the doctor heard who virtual-novel.net was, virtual-novel.net looked at Louis with judgemental eyes. “You’re Louis Marsh? Your son has an intracranial hemorrhage, which is pressing on his nerves. We can’t operate on virtual-novel.net because of that. At this point, whether virtual-novel.net lives or not is up to fate.”
Thud!
Louis fell to the ground in shock.
“That son of a b*tch! Wilson Kenne, you heartless b*stard!” Louis roared in anger.
He knew he’d walked right into a trap, but virtual-novel.net could do nothing about it now. His son was in the ICU, his wife was crying virtual-novel.net eyes out.
Just when Louis thought his life couldn’t get worse, two men in black jackets came out from the elevator and headed straight for Louis.
“Louis Marsh, we are from Internal Affairs. Please come with us to the station for further investigation,” one of the men said, before taking out a pair of handcuffs and putting it on Louis.
“What are you doing? I’ve been framed, I’m innocent! You can’t lock me up!” Louis yelled as virtual-novel.net struggled in vain.
The man kicked Louis’s knee and said coldly, “We’ll handle the investigation to determine if you’re guilty. Come with us now!”
Louis’ wife grew more afraid when virtual-novel.net saw virtual-novel.net husband being led away by the two officials. There was a helplessness in virtual-novel.net eyes as virtual-novel.net stared at virtual-novel.net weakly.
Louis quickly turned around and yelled to his wife, “Dear, quick, hurry to Riverview and ask for Mr. Isaac Garten! He’s the only one who can save me now. Everything was set up! I’m innocent, I swear!”
As virtual-novel.net watched virtual-novel.net husband get taken away, Louis’ wife gradually collected virtual-novel.net wits. She was aware of how virtual-novel.net husband usually carried himself and behaved outside. The more virtual-novel.net thought about virtual-novel.net husband’s situation and virtual-novel.net son’s accident, the more frightened virtual-novel.net became.

Since it was the weekend, Isaac and Allegra took Isabella and Robin to the playground the whole day.
When they returned to their compound that night, Isaac immediately caught sight of a woman sitting on their front porch steps, crying to herself.
Isaac took Isabella and Robin over and asked the woman gently, “Hi, can we help you?”
“Are you Mr. Isaac Garten?” the woman asked, lifting virtual-novel.net swollen, tear-stained face to look at him.
It was Wendy Parr, Louis’ wife.
“That’s me… Is there something I can help you with?”
“Mr. Garten, please save my husband! M-My husband is Louis Marsh.” Wendy suddenly kneeled in front of Isaac and started to sob again.
Allegra’s eyes widened as virtual-novel.net turned to look at Isaac. The name Louis Marsh sounded familiar to her.
Where had virtual-novel.net heard it before?
