Facade of Love Novel novel Chapter 272

hapter 272 Tell Me 

I did not react immediately. After a moment of hesitation, I realized that my hands and feet were a bit swollen. It was not too serious, but upon closer inspection, it was still rather noticeable. 

Was this man always so observant? 

He could even notice minor things like the fact that I had been hungry and cold. 

Looking at him, I smiled and said, “You have a keen eye, but it’s just a minor thing, and it’s already solved.” 

I really had no intention of telling him about this, or anyone else for that matter. 

After saying that, I prepared to tidy up and leave the hospital. However, Idris seemed determined to get to the bottom of it and pressed me down on the bed, demanding, “Tell me, who did this to you?” 

Seeing his serious and stern expression, I hesitated and said, “It’s no one…” 

“Tell me!” 

His voice was so terrifyingly low that I was frozen, and I looked at him, slightly scared. 

Seeing my reaction, he seemed a bit guilty. He lowered his head and softened his tone after dispelling the anger on his face for a moment. Then, he said, “When did you become so fond of keeping things to yourself? The old Yvette never wanted to suffer in silence.” 

Uh, was this an assessment? 

I was speechless and paused before saying, “Officer Jackson has been taking good care of me…” 

Knock, knock! 

There was a knock on the door. 

Idris frowned but still asked, “What’s the matter?” 

Ensio entered the room, and he looked a bit pale. After glancing at me, he hesitated and said, Mr. Young, something has happened.” 

Idris did not look at him, his dark eyes fixed on my swollen fingers. He asked in a low voice, ” Just say it. What happened?” 

Ensio hesitated briefly, then said, “Something happened at Officer Jackson’s place.” 

Something happened? 

Idris and I looked at him at the same time, and Idris lowered his gaze slightly. “What happened?” 

Ensio paused and said, “Officer Jackson’s house caught on fire half an hour ago. His wife was in a hurry to escape and jumped from the building.” 

Officer Jackson’s wife was Renata, right? 

How did…

I was stunned for a moment, unable to react. 

Idris furrowed his brows slightly and asked, “How is she?” 

Ensio replied, “The building wasn’t too high. When the rescue team arrived, she was still alive. She was rushed to the hospital and is now in the emergency room.” 

Idris nodded and said, “I see.” 

After Ensio finished speaking, he left. 

I remained silent and had a strange feeling in my heart. Renata was a police officer, right? Why would she have chosen to escape by jumping from the building when there was a fire? 

Idris saw that I was not speaking and asked, “What are you thinking?” 

I shook my head and looked at him, saying, “It’s late. You should go back. I’m fine.” 

The news of our divorce had already been announced, and there was no need to pretend to be a couple anymore. He really had no reason to stay here. 

He did not budge, only saying, “I will investigate what happened at the police station.” 

I was taken aback, not expecting him to hold on to this matter. I could not help but say, “No…”
