Chapter 387

I had my head down and spoke calmly. I didn't want to continue this conversation anymore.

“Anna Garcia, are we best friends? Can't you tell me the truth? Why don't you tell me what really
happened?” he asked me with hurt and worry in his eyes as he grabbed my hand abruptly.

Ronan's hands felt so warm that his faith momentarily cheered me. However, I managed to pull my
hand back and look at him nonchalantly. I didn't want to be caught in the situation of such intimacy with
him because it wasn't appropriate.

“I don't know what you're talking about. I did it. If I didn't, then why would I admit it? I'm not that stupid.”
I laughed bitterly. Although I was composed, I felt I might burst into tears at any second.

“No matter what you say, I will never believe it was you! I know you, and I trust you. There's no way
you'll assault Aunt Josephine,” he said determinedly as I pulled my hand away. No matter how I tried to
lie, he still believed in me. To be honest, I was pretty touched by his trust.

“I have something I need to do, so if you'll excuse me.” I stood up and turned to leave.

I was afraid that he would expose my lie if I continued to stay.

“I'll send you back. It's not safe for you to be alone when your tummy's so big,” he said casually behind
me.

Despite the casualness in his voice, he was persistent. That was why I hesitated for a while knowing he
would bring up the matter again on my way back. I allowed him to accompany me to avoid arousing his
suspicions.



Throughout the entire journey in his car, I stared wordlessly at the passing view. It was obvious I didn't
want to talk.

“How are things between you and Michael? I heard from the nurse that you've been going for check-
ups alone,” Ronan said after a long silence.

I lowered my head in response to that question. I didn't know how to answer that. I thought about the
way Michael had been treating me since the incident with Josephine, and my heart ached. Before the
incident, we were so lovey-dovey that others envied us. Now, only the two of us knew how hard and
forced things were between us.

Judging from my silence, Ronan frowned and looked at me as he sensed something was wrong
between us. It pained him to see me like this.

“Why do you have to do that? I really don't understand. But, come to think of it, I can't help feeling it has
something to do with your family. Am I right?” He tried again.

My heart lurched violently this time at Ronan's words, and I turned to look at him immediately with
panic in my eyes.

How did he know it has something to do with my family? Could it be that he has already found out
Steven was the culprit? Does it mean the Shaw family knows about this as well? Would Steven be sent
to jail, then?

“W-Why do you say so?” I asked as I looked into his eyes while trying to keep my composure. My voice
was so soft that it was barely audible.



“The look in your eyes tells me I'm right. So, the whole thing is really related to your family?” he asked
with a poker face instead of answering my question.

It was my attitude that gave me away. Although he looked expressionless, the pain in his eyes became
more obvious.

“No. It has nothing to do with my family. How do these two things relate to one another, anyway?” I
replied while lowering my head.

Stay calm, Anna! He's only making guesses. There's no concrete evidence. As long as I don't admit it,
he'll never know!

I tried to convince myself, but I was still worried.

He didn't care if I denied it. The next moment, he pulled his car over and turned in my direction as he
looked at me seriously. Although he was asking me questions, he knew his guesses were correct.

“Who else in the world can make you do such things other than your family? You've always been a
person who sticks to your principles, but whenever your family members are involved, you'll choose to
compromise. I'm sure that's how things are this time too. Am I right?”

I looked at him nervously. “Ronan, don't be ridiculous! My mother-in-law is in the hospital because of
me! It has nothing to do with my family, so stop making strange assumptions. And don't even think
about saying any of these to the Shaw family!” I said angrily as I tried to hide my real emotions.



I had never expected Ronan to think of it when Michael couldn't. Have I underestimated him all this
while? I thought I hid it well enough. I can't believe he can still guess it.

“You know, the more worked up you get, the more I feel everything is related to Steven.”

I didn't know my reactions had betrayed me until he told me. When I heard what he said, I completely
panicked, and my entire body felt cold. Could it be that he has already found out?

“W-What do you know? Ronan, just finish what you want to say!”

It dumbfounded me that Ronan had somehow figured out the culprit's identity. How can it be? Steven
didn't leave any evidence at the scene!

“Do I hear a confession?” he asked in a serious tone.

I lowered my gaze without saying anything. Since he already knew, there was no point in denying
further.

A sense of unease welled within me.

“How did you find out? Why do you think it has to go with Steven?” I asked nervously when Ronan kept
staring at me in silence.

“I saw the surveillance footage from that day. Steven appeared at the same location. To be honest, I
wasn't sure that he was involved, but I know you. I'm sure you will never do such a thing. So, the only
possibility I can think of is you did it for your family again.”
