“Same here.” charity said, “In fact, I’m different from Chester in certain aspects. I surely can’t sleep with someone
I’m not interested in, but he can sleep with any woman to satisfy his needs. It has nothing to do with love.”
“Chester’s not the only one. In fact, many men are the same. They can see love and needs as separate entities, but
we can’t. Perhaps it’s because we can only do it with someone we love.”
After some thought, Catherine said, “Since you can’t give him hope, it’s good you made it clear to him. However,
how do you feel about Max?”
“He’s nice. I feel relaxed when I’m with him. I’m thankful to him as well, but-”
“But you’re now as calm as still water. This might either have to do with your illness or indifference to him,”
Catherine interrupted her. “In that case, you’d better get your illness treated first. I think you’re still young, so

there’s no need to rush into a relationship. Just take it slow.”
After spending some time strolling around, Charity received a call from Larissa, who said that a traffic officer and
some security guards had come to interrogate her.
With that, Charity immediately headed upstairs.
The traffic officer who came was a middle-aged man in his 40s, and there were two slightly younger security
guards. One of them was a male, whereas the other was a female.
Larissa happened to be speaking nicely to the traffic officer and police officers. “My daughter is a victim as well. I
hope you won’t blame her. It was a critical situation. If compensation is needed, we’re ready to provide full
cooperation.”
“Mom, please fetch some coffee for the officers. Let me do the explanation.”
Charity reminded Larissa gently.
“Oh, yes. I forgot about it.” Larissa tapped her head dully.

“I don’t need coffee. We came to work.” The female police officer took out her license. “I should’ve come earlier,
but your attending physician claimed that you hadn’t fully recovered after you met with an accident and that you
lost a part of your memory of the accident. However, when you tried to escape on the highway, you caused a
three-car pile-up, so the condition was rather awful.”
“I know.” Charity said very apologeticaly, “How are the victims now?”
“You didn’t hit other cars on purpose. It was the switch of lanes that caused a collision with other cars. Luckily, there
was an airbag for protection, so they only suffered fractures and concussions. No one was seriously injured. Having
said that, there’s no way the victims are fine with it. Over ten of them have been kicking up a fuss at the police
station and national security agency,” the traffic officer said.
“I'll double the fees for the medical expenses, mental distress, industrial injury, and car repair,” charity said.

The police officers and traffic officers were more than satisfied with her cooperation.
“Actually, we’ve investigated the surveillance footage.” The female police officer suddenly said, “When you were
hunted down, you could’ve made use of the congested traffic at that moment to ram into the Land Rover. However,
you didn’t. I asked the driver, Steven, and the security guard on the passenger seat. They said you didn’t want to
cause heavy casualties at that point.”
“Unfortunately, Huxley is dead.” The male police officer said, “But after our analysis, it’s a fact that Huxley meant
to hit your car into the river on the river bridge and die with you. If you had used other cars to block the Land
Rover, he might’ve gone crazy and crashed into other cars on the highway because he was on drugs.”
“He was on drugs at that time?” charity was dumbfounded.
“Yes. When we salvaged his car and did an autopsy on his dead body, we noticed from his lungs that he was on
drugs.”
“But when Huxley was going after your car, he went a little insane and caused another four-car pile-up. Two victims
were heavily injured and are currently under emergency treatment. However, this has nothing to do with your car.”
