Chapter 99 Gavin Woke Up

Outside the ward of the hospital, Heidy and Hearst waited nervously. When Gavin showed signs of waking up, the doctor started the treatment. As time went by, Heidy became nervous. She hoped that Gavin would wake up soon.

On the other side, Annie also looked to the ward in uneasiness. When she saw that Gavin's eyes were still closed, she prayed in her heart.

After a long time, the door finally opened. The next second, Hearst came inside and stood in front of his bed. Grasping the hand of the Gavin, Hearst shouted, "Gavin, can you hear my voice?"

The little boy rolled his eyes and opened them slowly. When he saw Hearst's worried face. With a bright smile, he said, "Daddy..."

Hearing the familiar voice, tears welled up in Hearst's eyes. Holding his hands tightly, Hearst said with a smile, "Yes, baby. You finally wake up. Thank God you finally woke up."

Gavin smiled. Turning around, he fixed his eyes on Heidy. Taking notice of this, Heidy stepped forward and said smilingly, "Gavin, thank you for waking up."

Gavin's voice was still weak. He said slowly, "I heard what you said when I was asleep. I heard you chatting with me."

Tears streamed down her face, which was filled with joy. In a soft voice, she said, "Yes, I've been talking to you all the time. Gavin, can you tell me who pushed you into the water?"

Hearing her answer, Hearst's face also turned grave. He asked, "Who pushed you into the water? Is it her?" Hearst turned to Heidy.

Taking notice of that, Heidy frowned and emphasized again, "I said it wasn't me."

"The person who pushed me into the river isn't her." As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the front. Following his eyes, they saw that Annie was standing there with a pale face and a nervous look. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Taking a deep breath, Annie reminded calm and said, "Gavin, what are you talking about? I have always been so nice to you. How could I hurt you?"

"When I was pushed down, I saw your face. Although you wear the same clothes as Aunt Heidy, I can see your face clearly. Aunt Annie, why did you do that?" Inquired Gavin.

Hearing that, Hearst flew into a rage and disbelief. "You? Annie, why did you do that?"

Annie shook her head and explained hastily, "It's not me. You should go to verify whether I was with my friend that day. The doctor said that the accident might cause a head injury in Gavin's head, which injured his memory. Brother Hearst, I love her so much. How could I do such a thing? "

"Are you really with your friend at the time when accident happened to Gavin? And you know I can find out the truth," said Hearst in a cold tone. "If there is something wrong with Gavin's memory, how could he still remember what clothes the woman wore that day?"

Annie's face was pale. She looked at him anxiously. After casting a glance at Gavin and Hearst, Annie kept silent for a while and finally gave up to resist. She thought that no matter how she explained to him, he would never believe her.

Thinking of this, Annie said seriously, "Okay, I admit it. On that day, I was lost my mind. Then I pushed Gavin into the water. However, I didn't expect that he would be badly injured."

Hearing what she said, Heidy sneered, "If it was not a calculating crime, why you made such great preparation before? You prepared the same clothes and the same shoes as mine. If I guess correctly, the place we wet that day was your plan too."

Leaning on the pillow, Gavin nodded and said, "Dad, it was Aunt Annie who asked me to ask Aunt Heidy out. Besides, she said that I needed to ask her some questions. Aunt Annie said that only in this way could I know whether you love me or not. And call daddy in the place where Aunt Annie told me before."

Heidy walked towards Annie and said to her in a cold tone, "You must have known the history between me and Hearst. So, you asked Gavin to ask me the questions. You know my answer. And from the monitor, Hearst would know that I had a quarrel with Gavin. Then, I would have the motivation to hurt him. You did a good job. It's hard to find your fault."

In the park, not every place was monitored. There was a camera near the place where the accident occurred. In this way, Annie could leave here safely after the accident. She dressed herself like Heidy, people would definitely misunderstand her. There was no evidence to prove Heidy's innocence. Unless Gavin woke up, Heidy would never be able to clear herself.

At this moment, Hearst was nervous. He looked at Annie coldly. He didn't expect that she, who seemed to be well behaved, would do such a scheming and cruel thing. If Gavin hadn't woke up in time, he and Heidy would have...

The more he thought about it, the angrier he looked. He looked at her coldly, "Annie, you're such a bitch."

Annie couldn't help trembling and looked at him with fear. In a hurry, she got down on one knee and held his hand. Annie said nervously, "Hearst, I did this because I was lost my mind. I just thought that Heidy didn't deserve you..."

"So, to torn us apart, you want to murder Gavin? The manager in the park said that no one would pass there under normal circumstances. So from the beginning, you are intended to kill Gavin. Am I right?" Then, he grabbed her wrist harder and harder.

Her bones started throbbing in pain as if they would be crushed at any moment. Shaking her head, Annie said in fear, "No, it's not like that. I don't want to kill Gavin. I love him so much..."

Heidy crossed her arms in front of her chest. In an indifferent tone, she interrupted, "You love Gavin because you know that he is the most important person to Hearst. Please him, and ask him to help you talk to Hearst. But you know that he is my son, and he will be the obstacle for marring Hearst. So you have to kill him. Then, you can frame me."

Annie's face was as pale as paper. With her eyes wide open, she looked at Heidy in disbelief. Suddenly, her wrist was painful and she screamed, "Ah." Then, Annie was thrown to the ground hard.

Her wrist was dislocated, aching a lot. Looking at Hearst with fear, Annie couldn't help trembling. Kneeling and climbing to his feet, Annie hurriedly begged for mercy, "Hearst, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it. I just love you so much and want to be with you so much that I do such an irrational thing. In fact, I have been guilty in these days. In order to make up for my loss, I must take good care of Gavin..."

After hearing what she said, Gavin said in a cold tone, "Aunt Annie, don't you hope that I will never wake up? I heard your voice when I was asleep."

Fixing her eyes on Gavin, Annie hadn't expected that he had heard it. Falling feebly to the ground, Annie stared at the tall man in front of her with a stiff face. She knew she had no other choice. Thinking of this, Annie said in despair, "Hearst, I'm sorry. I'm just so jealous of Heidy. I hate her for getting your love. That's why I could be obsessed."

At this moment, with his hands clenched into tight fists, blue veins standing out on his temples, Hearst said in a cold voice, "I always thought that you were a good and kind girl, but I didn't expect that you are so vicious. You dared to hurt Gavin. I will never let off you. Assistant Liu!"

Assistant Liu walked up to him and asked, "Boss, what can I do for you?"

"Throw her into the same place and let her drown," said Hearst in a cold tone.

Annie held around Hearst's legs tightly and begged in fear, "No, Hearst, please don't... I can't swim. I'll die."

Giving her a heavy kick, he said to her in a cold voice, "You can't swim. Can Gavin swim? You have to pay for what you have done. What are you doing? Take her away."

Several tall and strong men came in and carried her away. "Hearst, I beg you, please let me go. I'm your cousin," Annie begged.

"If you dare say one more word, and I don't mind getting your relatives involved," said Hearst coldly.

Hearing this, Annie immediately shut up and looked at him in despair. She knew what kind of person Hearst was. She believed he could definitely do it. Seeing herself dragged away, Annie regretted, but there was no way to retrieve the situation.

The room became quiet again after Annie was taken away. Looking at the woman standing next to her, Hearst recalled what had happened these days and felt remorseful. At the thought of his slander against her, Hearst said in a low voice, "I'm sorry for what I have done to you."

Seeing him sincerely apologize, Heidy said coldly, "You don't need to apologize. I don't care. But I'm glad that I could finally clear myself. As I said before, you didn't give me the basic trust. You don't deserve my love."

Hearst tried to grab her hand, but she avoided it coldly. Seeing her hand in the air, Hearst frowned and said sincerely, "I'm sorry that I didn't trust you, but I have to admit that Annie has done it very well. It's very difficult to find fault with her plan. I will do the same thing again if everything start over.

Looking at him and staring at his face, Heidy bit her lips tightly and said firmly, "And our marriage is also over."
