The more she despised something, the more it would appear in front of her.

Boyce was just about to take his leave, when Mrs. Miller stretched her arm out, “What are you doing here? Did you want to see if you’ve angered my husband to death?”

Mrs. Miller felt that Boyce was the cause of everything, and she blamed him.

Boyce had no intention to start an argument, but Mrs. Miller didn’t want to let him off the hook that easily.

“Come inside now!”

Officer Miller shouted in a deep voice.

Mrs. Miller scoffed and knocked Boyce on her way inside, Officer Miller glared at her and said sternly, “The doctor already said that I shouldn’t get angry, carry on what you’re doing if you want me dead.”

“What have I done? It was him…”

“Mother, that’s enough,” Wendy Miller interrupted Mrs. Miller. She was afraid that Boyce would be irritated and exposed her dark past.

She peered at him and said coldly, “My father was hospitalized because of us, are you happy with how things are now?”

Boyce seemed completely unfazed, he only cast a glance at her.

He didn’t see the need to explain himself to such a person, and so he stood there in silence.

Officer Miller’s hospitalization was rather indirectly related to him, he wasn’t the main reason of why this happened.

He avoided her sideways and walked out when Wendy tugged him by his arm, “Boyce, if you didn’t want to be in this relationship from the start, why did you agree and investigated me behind my back…”

She wasn’t done when Boyce’s phone rang in his pocket, he took it out and the caller named ‘Cutie’ was shown on the screen.

It was Jasmine Burke who accompanied Boyce to purchase a mobile device at the time, she told him, “The first contact you save on your phone should be mine.”

She snatched his device from him and keyed in her phone number. When she got to the caller’s name column, she asked Boyce, “What are you planning to address me as?”

This question had never come across Boyce’s mind, he figured that her name suited the best.
