Chapter 702 Frankie sat on the bed, completely dazed. She couldn't wrap her head around how she had ended up going along with his wishes. That deep, smooth voice echoed in her mind again: "Grandma, I know you're not fond of me. A kid as dark and ruthless as I am, it's understandable. I don't blyou for it." "When I go in, with this broken body of mine, there's no way I'll make it to release day. But I've got a reason to hang on; I want her to be safe and happy.

She just walked out, and I couldn't turn in time, so she got hurt. Officer, I didn't hit her... you can check the surveillance cameras..." Lincoln took in the sight of the honest old man, his face a picture of panic and helplessness. Despite the anger bubbling inside, his gut told him something was off.
He went straight to the doctor, who said, "Ashley's injuries aren't too bad; we're treating her, but her will to live is really weak."
