Chapter 12 

My heart had become numb. 

As I watched Robert’s desperate look, I felt myself becoming empty. 

Robert…. 

It was late. 

It was already late. 

I was pushed into a dead end by you.. 

When it was dug out from the ruins, it had already ceased to breathe. 

No one would ever be sad because you gave an insincere gift, and no one would have a big fight with 

you anymore. 

In the future, you could chase after your youthful love without worry. 

Robert’s throat felt sweet. 

The body was swaying and about to collapse. 

He tightly held my letter in my hand and muttered to himself. 

Carissa… We had a baby; I had a home… 

“No… Carissa is gone, I have no home…” 

He cried and laughed, appearing insane. 

Shirley covered her neck and ran away like escaping. 

The door was not locked. 

It was pushed away by the police. 

As they entered, they immediately shook open the documents in their hands. 

“Mr. Griffin, you hit and run, breaking traffic rules. Please cooperate with the investigation.” 

Someone aimed an alcohol tester at him.. 

Soon, the tester beeped and sounded an alarm. 

The police frowned, “Drunk driving, take him away. 

Robert paid a lot of fines. 

Repair costs, fines for violations.

The assistant ran back and forth for a long time to help him, and he was finally spared from punishment. 

The first thing he did when he came out was to find Shirley. 

At that time, Shirley was coming out of a luxury goods store. 

Robert rushed up and grabbed her collar. 

“Did you know at that time that the one being pinned down was Carissa, right?” 

Shirley was startled. 

Reacting to the retreat, she exclaimed, “Robert, what are you doing?” 

Robert slapped her across the face, his eyes burning red as he gripped her shoulders tightly. “It’s you, it’s you, if it weren’t for you, Carissa wouldn’t have died!” 

There were security guards around the shopping mall. 

He rushed out and held down the crazed Robert. 

Shirley gained her freedom and then mockingly looked at him. 

“Carissa died, are you going to blame it all on me?” 

At that time, I was also under the ruins. How would I know that your wife was dying? 

“At that time, it was you who let the rescue team save me first. Now, if you blame me for it, don’t you feel guilty?” 

Robert went crazy and shouted, “You came back from abroad, and I kindly helped you. Why did you treat me like this?” 

Shirley was taken aback and her expression became complicated. 

Help me? 

“Robert, dare you say that you were not attracted to me?” 

She spoke slowly. 

But every sentence felt like torturing Robert’s heart. 

Robert, have you ever thought about it? 

“If you hadn’t nervously run over to save me back then, Carissa might still be alive, right? 

Robert stared blankly. 

Shirley smiled gently. 

But no matter what, I will still thank you, Robert. Thank you for saving me. 

“If it weren’t for you, that explosion might have really hurt me. 

“Ah-” 

Robert shouted like crazy, his eyes red as he broke free from the restraints of the security guards. 

He rushed up to Shirley and viciously grabbed her neck. 

Shirley’s beautiful face twisted. 

Four or five security guards tried to stop him, but they still couldn’t pry his hand open. 

Soon, the police arrived. 

Robert was taken away. 

Shirley had only one breath left. 

Robert attempted to harm someone. 

She cried and refused to forgive in the room. 

Robert immediately found a lawyer on the spot. 

The case was not attempted murder. 

Robert said that the complaint only stated that Shirley had premeditated murder. 

Shirley panicked and couldn’t even cry, “When did I murder your wife? What does it have to do with 

me?” 

Robert, however, could not listen. 

Submit the surveillance records provided by the shop owner as evidence chain to the court. 

This time, the ambiguities between Shirley and Robert that were promoted have all turned into 

motives for the crime. 

Shirley was furious and decided to sue Robert for attempted murder. 

But when there was a case on her, she had to first solve the deliberate murder. 

The chain of evidence was insufficient. 

But Robert spent most of his fortune on the legal team, and in the end, Shirley was convicted of manslaughter. 

Imprisoned for ten years. 

3/5 

Robert not only destroyed me. 

He attributed the responsibility to another woman. 

Deceiving oneself, it was believed that everything was Shirley’s fault.
