Exhausted, Hester returned home. After saying good night to Austin, she went straight to her room, threw herself into the big bed, and raised her hand to cover her eyes.
"Will you come back?"
Hester murmured in the darkness and fell into a heavy confusion. She didn't want to go back home. She was afraid of hearing it, but subconsciously she missed here.
In a daze, she finally fell into boundless darkness because of her physical exhaustion.
At home. Terence opened the curtain and looked out of the window, frowning. Terence put his hand on his heart and had a strange feeling.
Just now, his heart suddenly beat violently, as if something was involved, so heavy that he could hardly breathe.
"Hester..."
"Rat-a-tat!"
There was a knock on the door. In the blink of an eye, Terence hid his emotions and looked indifferent.
"Come in!"
Lisa pushed the door open and sighed. In the past three years, Mr. Terence had changed a lot. He was mature and steady, but he was so indifferent.
The air around him was so cold that no one dared to get close to him. Except for the young master, it was rare for him to have other expressions.
Sometimes, Lisa felt sorry for Hester's early death. Hester's departure seemed to have taken away all the vitality of Mr. Terence.
And Terence had been waiting for Hester all the time. He changed the decorations of the room to gloomy black, and all his clothes were black.
"What's the matter?"
Terence frowned and turned to look at Lisa, confused. As an old woman in the family, Lisa had been doing her best and had never been absent-minded. Today, Terence was a little surprised to her absent-minded.
"Everything is ready. We can set off at any time." Lisa regained her composure and nodded respectfully.
Nodding slightly, Terence looked a little absent-minded.
"Go and wake Thomas up!"
The winding mountain road was clean on both sides. The man was in a pure black suit, holding a mini version of himself in
e, raised his eyes and said unhappily. He had tried his best to bring her back last night, but she still didn't sleep well, which made him very frustrated.
Hester opened her eyes and looked at Austin with a gentle smile. She did not tell him what happened last night. Austin had been holding a grudge for what happened three years ago. She didn't want to add his trouble in vain.
"I'm just a little tired!"
Turning around, Austin put the hot milk in front of her and sat down opposite her. Austin never wanted to force her to say something she didn't want to say.
"You'd better not go on with your case. It's too complicated. I don't want you to be in danger."
"What?"
Hester looked at Austin in confusion. Austin had persuaded her before, but it was the first time that he expressed his meaning so decisively.
"Why?"
"I know you want to help others, but you are doomed to fail in this case. The defendant did nothing wrong. You have been deceived by the plaintiff all the time. "
Knowing her temper, Austin said straightforwardly without beating around the bush.
"Your client used to be a patient of Leo, and he has some psychological problems. Or, he was suffering from persecutory delusion.
Because of his noble status, the treatment is done secretly. It's reasonable that you don't know! "
