Chapter 214 Deborah Killed Your Chandler

Jane lunged uncontrollably toward Deborah, but Adrian immediately stepped in front of her, blocking

her hands with

his own.

Jane’s body swayed and she fell to the ground.

Evelyn rarely spoke up for Adrian, but this time she did. “Even without being pushed, you’re not so

weak as to be unable to withstand the wind, are you?”

Jane sat paralyzed on the ground, her face showing utter despair, as she cried out in pain.

Deborah remained silent.

Chandler had already passed away, so there wasn’t much left for her to explain.

Let them make a fuss if they want to.

Gerald saw Jane being pushed down, and his face became pale with anger. “We came over just to ask

about the real situation and find out Chandler’s whereabouts. Mr. Moxley, it’s not appropriate for you to

use force.”

Adrian looked at them indifferently. “If you really want to know the situation, the police’s words are the

most

reliable.”

As soon as Gerald entered, he announced that the police had informed him that Chandler had fallen off

a cliff and into.

the sea.

Gerald looked at Deborah with a somber gaze. “It was Chandler who hurt you, who wronged you. I’m

sorry for that.

But no matter what, his life…”

Deborah didn’t want to hear any more, so she interrupted him.

“I don’t have much to say. If Mr. Black wants to know something or investigate anything, he can talk to

the police. I’m sorry, I’m not feeling well right now and I don’t want to discuss anything further.”

Jane looked at her with a pained expression on her face, and after a long pause, she finally spoke with

difficulty, “You

killed a living person, Chandler was still so young.”

“You, Ashton, and Joseph must take responsibility for this; you can’t just let it go!”

Deborah said calmly, “Oh, in that case, I’ve already told you. You should go talk to the police.”

There were police officers outside.

Vance brought a few police officers and waited outside, waiting for Deborah’s condition to improve

before proceeding

with taking her statement and understanding the situation.

Upon hearing the commotion inside, Vance quickly led people in..

Jane collapsed on the ground, crying out to the heavens, “Chandler can’t just die like this, you

murderers must pay for your actions. Otherwise, even if I die and become a ghost, I will never let you

off the ho ok, wuu wuu wuu…”

Vance’s face darkened, and he immediately stepped forward to intervene, “Please, both of you, leave

for now. We, the police, will thoroughly investigate the situation and provide a proper resolution for

everyone involved.

Ms. Shepherd is injured and needs to rest. Please avoid having too many people here to disturb her.”

Jane’s emotions spiraled out of control, her cries growing louder and louder, until eventually she

struggled to breathe, gasping for air.

She stubbornly lay on the ground, refusing to leave no matter what was said.

Gerald lost Chandler and was emotionally distraught.

The police had told them several times to leave, but Gerald just stood there, dumbfounded, not

registering their words. Vance was in a dilemma. Chandler had passed away, and Gerald and Jane, as

parents, were also victims.

The police couldn’t directly take action, so they drove them out.

But now, the situation has changed. Jane seems to be showing signs of men tal instability, and it’s hard

to say if something unexpected might happen.

Vance hesitated, as someone hurriedly entered from outside.

The sound of footsteps grew closer and closer, and everyone in the sickroom turned their gaze toward

the door,

Joseph hurried in from the door, his face anxious and his body slightly swaying. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Upon entering, he didn’t look at anyone; his gaze was immediately drawn to the sickbed.

Upon seeing Deborah lying safely in bed, he finally managed to breathe a sigh of relief, almost

collapsing from exhaustion.

He tried his best to stay calm, sitting on the edge of the bed, but cold sweat still broke out on his

forehead.

Just as he entered the hospital and was on his way upstairs, he overheard some medical staff

discussing that Ashton’s condition was quite serious.

It’s hard to say whether it can be saved or not.

Ashton was in danger, so naturally, Joseph was worried. He wondered if Deborah felt the same way.

Now that he saw Deborah, he finally felt a bit more at ease.

He reached out and tightly held Deborah’s hand, which was hanging outside the blanket.

He ran in from the outside, his hands somewhat icy. Holding hers like this, he could feel the warmth of

her hand.

He lifted the blanket a little more and carefully examined Deborah.

Aside from the bandage on her head, she didn’t seem to have any visible injuries on her body.

The situation seemed a bit better than he had imagined. Joseph held her hand tightly, his palm

pressing firmly against

hers, his entire body tense.

Deborah spoke up, “I’m fine. But Chandler and Brandon…”

Joseph didn’t hear the latter part of her sentence and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, “As long as it’s

nothing serious, that’s good. It’s my fault, I was too careless, I shouldn’t have let you go out alone.”

Jane started screaming again, “Joseph, Chandler is your brother after all. You share half of the same

blood, do you know that this woman killed your Chandler!”

Joseph didn’t pay her any attention and just asked Deborah, “How are you feeling? Has the doctor

checked you out? Did the results come out yet, and what did they say?”

Deborah looked at Jane, who seemed to be acting crazy, and suddenly she wasn’t quite sure what

choice Joseph would

make.

He might not have feelings for Chandler, but when it came to Gerald and Robert, there were definitely

emotions.

involved.

Now that Chandler had passed away, Gerald’s attitude represented the Black family’s inability to accept

this outcome.

It would be unbearable to accept that Deborah caused all of this, at least that was what the Black family

would mostly

think.

Deborah sounded a bit distracted. “I’ve checked, and I’m really fine. I just have a head injury, but

there’s no internal

damage.”

She thought Joseph still wasn’t quite clear about the situation, and couldn’t help but want to explain it

directly again, “But Chandler really has already…”

Jane, filled with excitement, continued the conversation, “Chandler has fallen into the sea. Joseph, did

you foresee this all along and deliberately let Chandler die, or are you truly unaware of the situation?”

Joseph finally turned around to look at her, his eyes calm and undisturbed.

He spoke up, “Well, so what?”

Jane’s face stiffened, and soon her expression turned into one of immense hatred and resentment.

“So you really did join forces with her! I knew it, you’re so calm because you already guessed it, didn’t

you? You knew it would turn out like this!”

Gerald seemed to be at the end of his patience as well. “Joseph, Chandler is a member of the Black

family after all, and he’s your half-brother from the same father.

He died just like that. I’m not saying we should blame Deborah right now, but as his brother, you should

find out the truth. He may have made mistakes, but he didn’t deserve to die. And even if he did, it

should have been the police who judged him.”

Chandler had passed away, and now Gerald couldn’t calm down.

This fact was so sudden that he simply couldn’t accept it at the moment.

Joseph was still holding Deborah’s hand, patiently waiting for Gerald to finish speaking.

After they finished speaking, he calmly said, “Actually, my thoughts are quite the opposite.”

Gerald didn’t understand, “What do you

mean?”
