Chapter 1104 Play It Poorly

Anthony's hand was injured too?

Raymond's emotions instantly exploded, "He was the one who hit me! I didn't even touch a hair on his

head. How could he be injured? He's despicable! This guy definitely plans to turn the tables!"

Mavis also had a serious expression and didn't say anything.

Malcolm said, "Since both of you are injured, it would be better to confront each other face-to-face. We

can't just listen to one side of the story." This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

Mavis nodded in understanding.

Then Malcolm gave a nod to the officer.

In less than two minutes, Anthony came in on a wheelchair with Kane pushing him from behind.

As soon as he entered, almost all eyes in the hospital room looked at his right hand at the same time.

The originally fair and slender bones were now bruised and swollen, indicating that he was seriously

injured.

Mavis frowned as she watched him and began to doubt what happened.

Raymond was about to explode,"Anthony! Callahan! You're cunning! You..."

Before he could finish cursing, Malcolm interrupted, "What happened to your hand?"

Anthony glanced at his own hand nonchalantly and hooked his lips, "Just a small injury."

Kane explained for him, "When Mr. Callahan had an accident last time, he probably suffered some

internal injuries. This time when Mr. Parker attacked him again, during self-defense, something went

wrong, which caused injury on his own hand."

Kane then looked at Mavis again, "But Mrs. Callahan, you don't need to worry too much about Mr.

Callahan because he has already seen a doctor. Fortunately it did not hurt any finger bones. It can only

be considered as minor injury."

Mavis twitched her mouth slightly.

Raymond sat up angrily, "Which eye did you see my sister worrying about him? Also, I have fractures

before I can count this as minor injury. Why should you consider that little injury of his as minor? And

moreover, I'm the one who got beaten up here. How come I am responsible for injuring him?"

There were standards for assessing injuries medically. Although Raymond didn't know how Anthony

made himself like this, Raymond didn't believe that this could be considered minor by those standards

either.

Malcolm spoke calmly, "Both of you are injured. If Anthony's hand is due to being beaten up, and if

there is an assessment of light injuries, Raymond will be suspected of provocation or intentional harm.

If you both don't agree on reconciliation, it will lead into imprisonment."

"What!"

Raymond was furious. He couldn't understand why after all these twists and turns , the most important

responsibility would fall onto himself instead.

"When Anthony broke my arm, his hand was perfectly fine. Now he suddenly comes over claiming to

be injured too. Most likely, he orchestrated the whole thing. Why should he blame me for it?"

Green Grove Apartment was an old walk-up building without surveillance.

It cannot be proved that Anthony's injury had nothing to do with him.

"F***!"

Raymond was so angry that he could only grab the blanket with his left hand and hammer the blanket.

The failure lay in the fact that he was the one who made the first move. No matter what happened, he

was at fault first. Anthony was just too cunning.

When the atmosphere became tense, Anthony spoke up generously, "It's just a small family conflict. I

don't mind it personally. Thank you for Mr. White and Rara for making this trip."

Implied in his words, he had no intention of pursuing legal action and will not send Raymond to jail. He

chose to settle the matter.

Raymond gritted his teeth and said, "Who asked you to be so hypocritical?"

Mavis also said, "I do not accept a settlement under this result. Anthony's hand injury has nothing to do

with Raymond. He will stop at nothing to achieve his goals and even used self-harm to harm Raymond.

I cannot tolerate this behavior. I request that the NIB intervene in the investigation to determine whether

his hand was injured accidentally or intentionally afterwards. There must be a time difference for

investigation, and I refuse to believe that there are no clues."

Anthony's jawline stiffened slightly.

She continued solemnly, "Mr. Callahan, as for our matter, I will appeal to the court as soon as possible

and request a compulsory divorce. If you come to your senses before that, you can contact me at any

time to proceed with the divorce procedures. Otherwise, we will see each other in court."

Anthony's face was so livid.

Mavis didn't care whether he was happy or not, but just felt angry. "If there's nothing else, please let Mr.

Callahan leave. Raymond needs to rest."

Raymond rolled his eyes and said, "Hurry up and leave. If you stay for another minute, I'm really going

to lose it."

This parting remark was completely disrespectful, especially in front of Malcolm and Lyra.

Anthony, silent and sullen, was wheeled away by Kane.

Malcolm and Lyra said goodbye to Mavis and left the ward with Anthony.

In the hospital corridor, Malcolm bluntly commented, "You got what you should have but played it

poorly."

Anthony was speechless.

Lyra also said, "Mavis was already wavering on whether to get a divorce, but then you came in and put

on this great show, making Mavis furious. How should I scold you?"

Anthony's Adam's apple rolled lightly as he tightened the swollen bones of his hand.

Lyra said, "I know you too well. You would rather tell a hundred lies to cover up than sincerely

apologize. If I were Mavis, I wouldn't want to forgive you either."

Anthony listened silently as Lyra continued to berate him in the hospital hallway. It seemed like a public

trial against him. "You were almost crushed with guilt when you thought Mavis died during childbirth,

but now that you have a chance to make it up to her, you're not cherishing it?" she scolded.

Anthony was taken aback and muttered, "Rara..."

"If you don't love her, then stop harming her and set her free," Lyra said firmly before walking away

without looking back.

Malcolm didn't say anything but gave Anthony a look of good luck before following his wife's footsteps.

Kane couldn't help but sigh heavily. "Mr. Callahan, your hand is injured and yet... you're making things

more complicated for yourself. If necessary, why don't you find some helpers for advice?"

Anthony shot Kane a cold glance. "I don't need your reminder."

Kane shut up obediently.

...

Ever since the day he had beaten Raymond up, Mavis had been taking care of Raymond in his hospital

room for days on end without seeing Anthony again.

Anthony did indeed seek out some helpers because he had to go to NIB almost every day due to the

car accident and fight cases. Whenever he went there, he would sit in Chad's office and have tea with

him.

Chad never held back his words and always teased him whenever they met. "Only someone as foolish

as you can walk on tightrope at cliff edge while chasing after your wife," Chad joked.

Anthony sipped his tea calmly without changing his expression no matter how sarcastic Chad sounded.

"I've told you before that the ultimate trick of chasing after your wife is shamelessness," Chad

continued teasingly. "Besides, you were at fault from the beginning, but instead of swallowing your

pride, you came up with lousy ideas that even broke your brother-in-law's arm. Now, Mavis wants to

appeal for divorce, and what use is it coming here asking me now?"

Looking down at his still swollen fingers which hadn't healed yet, Anthony lightly agreed, "It was indeed

a terrible idea. But I want to see if there are any worse ideas from you."
