Chapter 177

Sophia froze, her expression cracking slightly. She clearly hadn't expected me to ask that question, which immediately made her connect my words to the events at the villa that day. I had repeatedly told her to check the hallway's surveillance footage, saying that if she did, she would definitely find something wrong. But she didn't believe me. She never believed me. If she had trusted me even a little, things wouldn't have turned out like they did. Sophia tightened her grip on my arm and choked out, "It was my fault that day. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have gotten such serious injuries." "Joshua, take care of yourself. Once you're discharged, I'll make it up to you. I won't let you get hurt again." I lowered my head, staring at the tiles on the floor, watching the moonlight spill in through the window and reflect off the tiles. My gaze was a bit lost, and I was in a daze. I thought I heard Sophia say she would treat me well in the future and not let me get hurt again.
