Chapter 901
But upon closer thought, had she really been violated by Spencer? No, on the contrary, Spencer had his fingers broken, became addicted to drugs, and was covered in scars.
nbsp;
"Joseph, don't you believe me?" Megan looked at him with a pale, sorrowful face.
nbsp;
Joseph gazed at her nbsp;silently.
nbsp;
This was the woman Joseph had once deeply loved. Even though nbsp;he no longer loved her nbsp;romantically, he had thought of protecting her well. But suddenly, Joseph realized he didn't nbsp;understand her at all.
nbsp;
He felt it nbsp;the first time with Rex.
nbsp;
And this time, when his relationship with Cassie was going well, Megan was suddenly kidnapped, and everything changed.
nbsp;
If it weren't for the two siblings, he wouldn't have cut off Spencer's fingers or fought this lawsuit.
nbsp;
If Megan really orchestrated all of this, it was too horrifying for him to comprehend.
nbsp;
"Megan, your case will be officially taken over by the police. The police will also work hard to find those two kidnappers for you. We have broken up, so please don't come looking for me anymore." nbsp;Joseph lowered his eyes and said softly, then took a step to leave.
nbsp;
Megan grabbed his arm and cried out bitterly, "Joseph, it's okay if others doubt me, but we've known each other for twenty years. Don't you believe me? I'm just a weak woman; I don't have the ability to kidnap Spencer. His combat skills can rival Wyatt's. Besides, I really didn't know Spencer was also kidnapped. When I opened my eyes, he was the first person I saw."
nbsp;
"Exactly," Nathan hurriedly added. nbsp;"Even if I hang out with some small-time thugs, I've never been involved with those who inject drugs. These people are clearly part of an organized group. And what if they come after Megan again?"
nbsp;
Megan gave Nathan an appreciative look; he had finally said something sensible.
nbsp;
Joseph's temples throbbed from the siblings' words.
nbsp;
Never had Joseph felt so annoyed as he did now. He felt as if he were floating in mid-air, powerless, afraid, and terrified.
nbsp;
Especially when he saw Cassie walking out of the courtroom, Joseph became completely agitated.
nbsp;
"I will find someone to protect you for a while longer, but please don't contact me again." nbsp;Joseph shook off Megan's arm.
nbsp;
"Megan, you need to understand that when we broke up, I gave you the house, the car, and billions in cash. And you, Nathan, I have protected the Zenith family for so many years, saving you multiple times. I owe you nothing," nbsp;he then added.
nbsp;
Megan's face turned as pale as snow, and tears streamed down her cheeks.
nbsp;
But Joseph no longer had the strength to care. He was too exhausted because he realized that his entanglement with Megan had completely destroyed the hard-earned relationship he had built with Cassie.
nbsp;
"Megan, stop tying your life and death to me," nbsp;he concluded.
nbsp;
Joseph took a step back, turned around, and walked away without looking back, heading towards Cassie.
nbsp;
In the hallway, Laura and Cassie were waiting for the elevator.
nbsp;
Joseph walked briskly towards Cassie, his steps urgent, but before he could get close, Peter blocked his way.
nbsp;
"Move aside, I need to talk to Cassie," nbsp;Joseph said.
nbsp;
Joseph anxiously stared at Cassie. In just a few days, she had become much more haggard, with red eyes and even dark circles.
nbsp;
Cassie must have been very worried about Spencer's case, probably not having slept for several nights.
nbsp;
Joseph's heart ached deeply.
nbsp;
It was all his fault. If he had trusted her more, things wouldn't have come to this.
nbsp;
Laura sneered, "Mr. Hernandez, don't be so shameless. When you hurt our Cassie, you were ruthless and merciless, calling her a vicious woman without giving her a chance to explain. Now that you realize nbsp;you nbsp;had nbsp;misunderstood Cassie nbsp;all along, you want to come back and make amends?"
