Chapter 292
Raine was so agitated that her body, which had not yet recovered, was even more fragile. She was so
angry that she could not breathe.
The doctor came in, gave her IV fluids and some more instructions, and then left.
Mark's handsome face had been grim and calm since Summer left. He did not speak again after she
left.
Lying in bed, Raine's eyes flickered over him. A glow o f joy rose in her heart. He signed the divorce
papers!
But then she thought of her own face, and the glow in her look and eyes dimmed again.
She did not care about looks, but who would not care when a woman's face was ruined like that?
Mark got up from the couch and was striding his long legs out of the ward.
Raine, who was half-leaning on the bed, sat up and stared at the figure, and asked, "Where are you
going? I ... Have nightmares..." Her voice was hoarse.
He turned around and his eyes fell gently on her. In a deep voice, he answered, "I'm going to have a
cigarette. I'll be back soon..." "You can smoke right here, I don't mind." She shook
her head.
"But I mind. You lie down and rest. I'll be back soon..."
Mark laid her down on the bed, gently pulled the blanket over her with his big hands, and then turned
and walked out of the room.
Baine seemed as though she was about to say something, but the words reached her lips and she
swallowed them back.
Outside the room, in the long corridor, the tall, muscular figure reclined against the window, a cigarette
between his slender fingers, the intense sarcasm and cold in his eyes swirling like smoke.
His thin lips curled up coldly as he thought of the woman, as cold as ice.
There was no need for a woman like that to cross his mind again!
The next morning
Summer woke up very early. Maybe she was not used t o sleeping in the hotel bed. Maybe she did not
feel like sleeping at all.
She felt that she had been half asleep all night and had not slept soundly.
Today, she planned to go to school and quit.
When she arrived at the school, she went directly to the principal's office and told him the reason for
her coming.
The principal was slightly shocked at first, after which he tried every means to retain her, but she
insisted on resigning and could not promise him to stay.
In fact, she knew only too well that the principal's reason for keeping her was mostly because of him.
"Now that you've made up your mind, I respect your decision, but if you want to come back, you’ll
always b e welcome back." The principal spoke with unusual fervor.
Summer just smiled symbolically and saw Dean as she walked out of the school with a box in her
hands.
Dressed in a police uniform, he was talking to the owner of a restaurant across the street from the
school, his body standing straight.
Seeing her, Dean walked quickly over to her, took the box from her, and asked in surprise, "You have Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
no class today?"
"I quit," she said lightly.
"Why?" Dean then looked down at her belly, smiled awkwardly and said, "Look at my reaction."
"Why are you here then?"
"There was a rape case here some time ago. I’m here investigating the case." "Then I won't disturb the
kind and honest Officer
Singleton who is investigating the case. I'll go first.” Summer took the box in Dean's hand.
Dean looked at the time and said, "Why don't you wait for me for a minute? I'll finish up and drive you
home.”
