She knew that Armand had not yet convinced Elizabeth.
He himself didn’t care but Elizabeth cared about his matter a lot.
He must feel upset to be in such a situation.
Theresa faintly sighed and got up to pour a glass of water for Armand to rub his lips. His lips were cracked as his lips stayed dry for a long time. His hair was messy and there were stains of blood that had not been wiped clean.
She reached out to hold his hand and whispered, “Armand, please wake up.”
He must not suffer from something bad for the sake of Elizabeth as well as Theresa.
Armand who was lying on the bed didn’t move.
It seemed like he was not waking up either.
Boyce didn’t sleep all night. He was having dark circles and he looked quite tired.
He returned to his residence and opened the door. He was used to being the only one at home.
Jasmine stood in the living room when she heard the commotion.
Boyce walked in and saw her standing door, “Didn’t you go to school today?”
“I have no class today.” Jasmine was dressed neatly, “I wanted to go to find you initially.”
Boyce said, “No need. Theresa is with him.”
“Have you had your lunch?” Jasmine asked.
“No,” Boyce said.
“I will go and cook something for you. Do you want to sleep for a while first?” Jasmine could see that he looked slightly tired. Boyce said, “I still have to go to the police station. You cook something first. I will take a shower so that I will become fresh.” Jasmine was upset seeing him being so tired.
“Can’t you take a leave to rest at home today?” Jasmine said.
Boyce said, “No, I still have to attend a meeting this afternoon.” He pulled his collar and undressed his shirt as he walked into the bathroom. Jasmine looked at him and went to the kitchen to make something for him to eat.
Jasmine wasn’t sure if he was in a hurry to leave so she cooked some dumplings which she made last time and kept inside the freezer.
She peeled the garlic to make garlic paste and poured some balsamic vinegar into a bowl. After Boyce finished his shower, he wore a handsome uniform and looked elegant and valiant. His look in uniform was very charming. Jasmine looked like she was obsessed with his handsome look and she only regained her consciousness when Boyce walked over. She quickly said, “Wait outside. It’s almost ready.”
She put the bowls of garlic paste and balsamic vinegar on the table. Then, she took the dumplings out of the pot and put them on a plate before serving it.
Boyce pulled out the chair at the table, “Eat some too.”
Jasmine who sat at the opposite said, “You eat first. I’m not hungry yet.”
Boyce also didn’t eat breakfast. It was now noon and he was really hungry. He picked up a dumpling using a chopstick and ate it after putting the dumpling in the vinegar.
It was quite hot and he didn’t chew carefully before swallowing it.
Jasmine went to get a cup of water for him, “Eat slowly.”
Boyce said, “It’s so delicious.”
Jasmine looked at him while propping her chin in her palm. She asked him, “How is Armand’s injury?”
“It’s not life-threatening,” Boyce said.
Jasmine felt that a weight had been lifted off her mind, “That’s good. He didn’t suffer any physical injuries, right?”
She knew that a lot of people had suffered physical disabilities after having car accidents.
Boyce said, “No.”
Jasmine nodded her head.
After finishing the meal, Boyce drank some water and stood up while saying, “I’m leaving now.”
Jasmine walked over, “Wait a minute.”
Boyce stood still and looked at her.
Jasmine walked towards him and reached out to tidy up the collar of his uniform, “You look good in this suit.”
“Am I only looking good in this suit?”
Jasmine smiled, “You always look good.”
Boyce stretched out his arm around her and hugged her while stroking her hair, “Bye.”
Jasmine nodded her head.
When Boyce arrived at the police station, he was called by the subordinates of Officer Miller.
He walked into the office of Officer Miller and saw that his desk had been emptied.
Boyce asked, “Officer Miller, why…”
Officer Miller put down the photo frame in his hand when he saw Boyce. He walked towards Boyce and said, “Come here and have a seat.”
He pulled Boyce to sit down on the sofa.
“I have retired.” Officer Miller said.
Boyce looked at him for a long time and remained silent.
It was because he knew that Officer Miller felt very sad to leave the job now. He loved his job and now he was retiring early so he must be feeling very upset.
“Officer Miller, in fact…”
Officer Miller waved his hand to indicate Boyce to stop his words. He had already made up his mind and there was nothing for him to regret.
“I have recommended you to replace my position, but the superiors will also need to examine the suitable people first. You should try to have a good performance.” Officer Miller looked around in the office, “I really feel a bit reluctant to leave here. It’s not that I feel reluctant to leave this position. It’s that I feel reluctant to leave this place. I really love this place after working for such a long time.
Boyce lowered his eyes and he didn’t know what words could he say to comfort him.
“Hey, let’s talk about other things. Just forget all the unpleasant things before this. After all, I’m still your boss today.”
Officer Miller patted Boyce’s shoulder.
