The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 447 The Clothes He Left Behind

Lysander hadn’t intended to alarm Adrian, but now that he was here, she couldn’t exactly send him away. With a hint of helplessness, she said, “I’m really okay, you should tell Daphne not to rush over here.”

Adrian quickly pulled out his phone to send a message. “All right, I’ll tell her.”

The policewoman and the policeman shared a glance. Once Adrian had finished his phone call, they turned to Lysander with a smile. “Ms. Thorne, the friend you just mentioned, it’s him, isn’t it?”

Lysander hadn’t expected to cause such a misunderstanding. She was in a bind, unsure whether to explain or to remain silent. She found herself torn, her brows furrowed in distress.

Adrian instinctively protected her, turning to the police officer and saying. “I am indeed her friend. Is there any paperwork that needs to be done? I’ll handle it.”

The police officer couldn’t help but chuckle, teasing, “Ms. Thorne, your friend seems quite concerned about you.”

The corner of Lysander’s mouth twitched slightly. In order not to complicate things, she chose to remain

silent.

Upon seeing the situation, the police officer became increasingly certain that he was the one who caused the suspect to be admitted to the emergency room. Despite his refined appearance, which suggested he was not a man to act rashly, the officer adopted a serious expression and cautioned, “Sir, I understand your feelings, but your retaliation was excessively harsh. The hospital just reported that four of his ribs are broken, and he has lost almost all his teeth.”

After all, Adrian was a doctor. Upon hearing about the injury, it seemed as if he had already realized something.

Josiah lived next door.

It was clear as day who had dealt such a heavy blow.

“Excuse me, is that person’s life in danger?”

“Don’t worry, he’s already in surgery at the hospital. He should pull through,” the police officer said, suspecting the man was playing dumb. However, considering the victim’s feelings, he didn’t call him out on it. Instead, he added, “Remember not to be so impulsive next time. Excessive self–defense can also lead to criminal charges. If someone were to die, it wouldn’t be something you could simply settle with compensation.

Gradually, Adrian started to understand. However, he didn’t raise any objections. He simply acknowledged it, saying. “Thank you, I understand now.”

With a soft sigh, Lysander prepared herself to explain everything to him once they left this place.

All the involved people had already arrived, and the police had no intention of wasting any more time on a case that was essentially closed. They simply said, “If there’s nothing else, please sign and go home to rest as soon as possible. If there are any new developments in the case, we’ll be sure to contact you.

At last, Lysander managed to leave the police station.
