Chapter 168 Hypocrisy

Alisa shushed me with a hand gesture and walked over to the door hurriedly. Once she was sure that no one was over there, she asked, "Are you sure?"

I shook my head before I nodded again. "I'm not too sure, but my gut tells me that the janitor was Randall."This is from .

This time, I didn't keep anything from Alisa. I told her that the janitor was probably Randall. Instead of getting surprised, she nodded.

"That tracks. He probably sent the parcel to the wrong address overseas. Then, the parcel was sent to my place. Perhaps he found someone he knew and asked them to send the parcel back here. After all, the evidence was sent together with gifts each time." Everyone was smart here. So, a single tip was enough for them to grasp the full truth.

However, Randall probably hadn't finished what he needed to do. That was probably why he didn't reconcile with me.

Alisa mulled it over and asked, "How about I try something with Riva? He's not going to refuse reconciling with his own daughter if she's here. It's been a long time since they met. with each other."

I shook my head hastily. "That won't do. Your dad is keeping a close eye on Riva. We would've exposed Randall if you did that.

"He's probably holed up in the hospital all these years because he's searching for some evidence. Perhaps he was onto something already. We can't let him die once more."

I felt the lingering fear in my heart when I thought of the burns on Randall's hand. If Riva didn't leave with her mom back then, would her entire family have died a long time ago?

If everything was exactly as she had thought, then it meant Keenan had no qualms about killing his own flesh and blood, let alone a stranger.

Alisa straight-up slumped to the chair. "Look at you. You're always putting others in front of you. If you worry too much, you won't be able to do big things in life."

Alisa actually said the same thing that the doctor said to me. Had I been worrying too much?

I lowered my head. I merely did what I did because my conscience wouldn't allow me to take another action.

To my surprise, however, Rivaella was admitted to the hospital on the same night. She had at lot of food at the stalls by the side of the road. There must've been something wrong with some of the food because she had food poisoning

Alisa got the call and was about to run over, but she sat back on Leonard's bed. "I have the important task of seducing your husband now. You're going to have to check on Riva. That

would seem more natural."

I saw Leonard gripping the blanket firmly while I nodded and left the ward. This was a fantastic opportunity.

By the time I arrived at the ward, Rivaella looked pale, and she had grown much scrawnier.

"Are you the patient's family? It's bad enough that the young fellows didn't know any better. How could you, an adult, not know about it? She ate so many unhygienic foods and poisoning. She's also having a serious case of diarrhea. "The test results are going conditions. Don't leave, lady. Stay back and look after her."

Don't leave, lady. Sta.. to come out soon. It'll tell us if the patient has other

I nodded at them repeatedly and saw them out of the ward before I went over to the side of the bed. "How are you feeling, Riva? Do you want a glass of warm water?"

Rivaella turned her head sideways and refused to look at me. I didn't let that bother me. I poured her a glass of warm water and let out a sigh of relief after she finished drinking it. "Don't bother putting on an act. You are just as hypocritical as your parents are!" Rivaella rolled her eyes at me and covered herself with the blanket.

I stood next to her and was suddenly unsure of myself. After a while, I cleared my throat. "I was overseas back then. I don't know about what happened to your family.

"I'll apologize on their behalf if they did something wrong, but you probably know the kind of people they were..."

"What do you mean? They are the kind of people who ignore cries for help!" All of a sudden, Rivaella became worked up. She lifted the blankets and glared at me viciously.

"They had the money to send you overseas to have a good time, but they didn't have the money to lend to my mom so she could see the doctor. We were just borrowing some money

for her. We were going to pay them back eventually!

"Do you have any idea how horrible my mom's death was? Do you?"
