FreeNovel“Carrie!”
Ryan's grimacing eyes lit up as he eagerly made his way to Carrie. He pulled her into his arms, his voice trembling in lingering fear.
“I'm sorry. It’s my fault that | didn’t get there in time.
“I'm sorry for the hurt and pain you went through. | could've done a better job protecting you. Just hit me. Take your anger out on
me.”
Everybody was shocked.
Ryan, the Grim Reaper in the business, was lovestruck.
Carrie had the magic powers to put Ryan in his place.
“Ryan, why did you say that about Ralph? Why?”
Due to her autism, Carrie was stubbornly persistent on certain matters. “Why did you say that about Ralph? If it wasn’t for Ralph, |
would've been dead. Ralph saved my life. Why did you have to be mean? Why?”
Why?
The countless whys would have annoyed anyone else.
However, Ryan held her tight and whimpered tenderly in her ear. “You must have been afraid, Carrie. Are you alright? I'm sorry for
not protecting you.”

“Ralph didn’t do anything wrong. He risked his life to save mine. Don’t say that about him, alright?” Carrie would not let go of the
matter until she got through to Ryan. Otherwise, she would not be able to focus on anything else.
Yasmin felt for Ryan.
Carrie's condition finally stabilized, but the accident set her progress back significantly.
As Carrie would not let up, Ryan did not want to put more emotional strain on her. He swallowed his pride and pleaded hoarsely,
“Then promise me, babe. Don’t look at other men. Just look at me, Carrie. I'm the only man for you.”
Ralph left the hospital and hurried back to the station.
After sorting out the paperwork, Ralph sent his people to retrieve the report filed by Brian and his daughter. The file included
information on the bullies and their statements.
There was not much to the case.
Ralph could not settle down once he reviewed the file.
Bella's call then cin.
“Bella.” He paced his breathing.
“How are you doing, Ralph? Are you okay?”
Bella's anxious voice boomed during the call. “We saw the news about Savrow Art Academy and that you were heading a team
there. Aunt Mila saw the news, and you didn’t pick up her calls. Since Justin and | are here, she asked us to pay you a visit.”
“The perpetrator was arrested. I'm fine.”
“] don’t believe you.e out and show us.” Bella was persistent. “We are in front of the station.e out to prove that you are
safe and sound, or we won't know what to say to Aunt Mila.”
Ralph walked out of the police station and saw the Rolls Royce parked across the road.
Awkward, Ralph glanced around and slipped into the car while no one was looking.
“Don’t drive a fancy car to see me.”
Ralph whined the moment he got into the car. “Smay know you're my family, but others would think I'm a dirty cop who takes
bribes from the rich.”
Justin smirked at Ralph’s wild imagination.
“Thank goodness you're okay, Ralph.”
Bella raised Ralph's arms and told Justin to take multiple photos from different angles.
“Send the photos to Aunt Mila, Justin.”
“Okay.” Justin looked down on his phone and sent the photos through WhatsApp.

“Hey, hey. That's a bit excessive.” Ralph clicked his tongue. “Should | take off my pants, so you can take photos for my mom?”
Bella replied, “Uh... If you insist, | don’t see why not. I'll take a few photos since that’s what you want.”
Justin kept a stoic face. “We're all men. | don’t mind.”
Ralph was speechless. Bella and Justin were made for each other.
“We saw you carrying a girl out, Ralph. Was she a victim? Is she okay?” Bella, a kind soul, asked out of concern.
Ralph pursed his lips in silence for a moment before deciding to tell the truth. “The girl is Carrie.”
The couple went white. “Who? Carrie? Our Carrie?”
“Yes.”
“Oh, my God.” Bella covered her mouth in shock.
“Where is Carrie now? How is she?” Flustered, Justin turned pale.
“Don’t worry. Carrie is fine. She sustained minor injuries and shock.”
Ralph looked at the tand spoke in a flat tone, “Ryan must be taking her hnow.”
Justin could not shake off the concern. “Bella and | will head to Ryan's to check on Carrie.”
As his mind flew back to Carrie's conversation with Brian, Ralph pulled a grim look.
“Bella, Justin, | have a request. I'm not in a position to intervene, but can you help me?”
