Semua Bab Toxic Compassion: Bab 1 - Bab 10

I dragged myself home, exhausted. I had barely opened the door when I saw Hannah lying in Wyatt's arms on the couch, the two of them laughing as they watched the television.Hannah quickly pulled away from Wyatt when she heard the sound.She looked at me with an annoyed look on her face. "So, you actually remembered to come home? Do you know Wyatt had to carry all the luggage because you didn't pick us up? He was exhausted. Can't you have a little more compassion?!"I ignored her and calmly took off my shoes by the door, but that only made Hannah more irritated. She got up and walked toward me, but Wyatt quickly tried to calm her down. "Nathan was probably busy with work. He didn't mean it. Don't be mad, Hannah. I'm not tired. Oh, right. Nathan, Hannah and I brought you a gift."He then walked over as if he was presenting me with a treasure and handed me a box. Inside was a scarf printed with some landmarks. It was made of cheap synthetic fabric, with rough threads sticking out alo

Wyatt was still beside Hannah, and he quietly reminded her, "Hannah, the watch...""Shut up!" Hannah shoved him away and stared at me, her voice tight with panic. "Where is the ring?! Say something!"Her earlier smugness was gone, and she had even forgotten about the watch. Only panic remained in her eyes.I looked at her and suddenly found it a little laughable.She did not care whether I lived or died, but she cared a lot about a ring. "I sold it..."Before I could finish, the sales associate screamed. "The watch is missing!"The store instantly fell into chaos. Before I could react, Wyatt bumped into me with a panicked look on his face. Then, something heavy dropped into my arms.Wyatt pointed at me and said, "He has the watch. He stole it!"My eyes widened in disbelief, and I quickly denied it. "It wasn't me. Wyatt shoved it into my arms. Check the security cameras if you don't believe me!"Wyatt's eyes instantly reddened. "Nathan, how could you accuse me like that? Everyo

I was so terrified that my survival instinct made me grab Wyatt's arm tightly and drag him down with me.With a loud crash, the truck hit us both and knocked us to the ground.Agonizing pain swept through my entire body. As my consciousness began drifting away, I seemed to see Wyatt's face contort with pain and rage…-When I regained consciousness, I was already lying in a hospital bed, covered in bandages from head to toe. The slightest movement sent sharp pain through me.Hannah rushed over. When she saw Wyatt and me both lying in hospital beds, tears rolled down her face.The doctor said, "Both patients are seriously injured, but the operating theaters are backed up right now. We can only operate on one of them first. Please discuss it with the family."Wyatt spoke weakly. "Hannah, let Nathan have surgery first. He must have hated me because you treat me too well, so he pushed me into traffic on purpose. He probably didn't expect to lose his footing, too, and then we both go

Hannah took good care of Wyatt at the ward. She never hesitated to buy him whatever he wanted to eat or drink, and she would even comfort him, saying, "Wyatt, don't worry about the money. Nathan still has a lot of emergency cash left from what I found last time. Just tell me what you want to eat, and I'll buy it for you."Wyatt nodded, secretly mocking Hannah for being so ridiculously stupid, but his expression was one full of concern. "Hannah, I'm really happy you treat me so well. But I'm also scared that Nathan will hurt me again because he's jealous. Maybe I should leave after I'm discharged."He knew Hannah had no money left for him to spend, so he was already planning to leave anyway.But Hannah had no idea what he was thinking. When she heard that, she immediately took his hand and promised him. "Don't worry. Once he can't fake his death anymore, I'll make him apologize to you. If he refuses, I'll threaten him with divorce. He loves me so much that he'll definitely give in."

Hannah did not have the courage to believe anything the two officers revealed. She shook her head as she pushed the death certificate away. "No... This isn't him... This is a fake! This is doctored! You must have made a mistake!"But the officer ignored her and took out a tablet. They opened a video and continued. "We obtained the footage from the security camera at the intersection. It clearly shows Mr. Ford deliberately pushing Mr. Peters into traffic. Mr. Peters grabbed him on instinct, which caused both of them to get hit."As previously stated, he died because his injuries were too severe, compounded by the serious illness he already had. Doctors were unable to resuscitate him."The footage was a little blurry, but it clearly showed Wyatt with a vicious smile on his face as he suddenly shoved Nathan toward the road. When Nathan stumbled, he grabbed Wyatt's arm. The brakes screeched as the two of them rolled onto the pavement together. Blood soon spread across the ground.Hanna
