There was something odd about this incident, but Michael could not care about those because Heather’s condition was more important to him.“Christina, you saw my mother once you reached my house? Is that right?”“Yes. Initially, I wanted to ask your mother to come down, but Judy said that she was napping. However, I don’t feel like it’s nap time now, so I went to her bedroom to find her, and I saw Heather was on the floor once I got in.”Michael kept quiet for a moment, then he asked Judy, “You said Christina pushed my mother, so that’s why she was injured. Did you see it with your own eyes?”“Although I didn’t see it, I know that Miss Williams went up there angrily. Later, Old Madam was on the floor, and there’s a red palm print on her face too. I felt like it must have been her who pushed Old Madam. Otherwise, who else?”Christina was irritated because she felt Judy blamed it on her purposely.“Bullsh*t! I immediately told you to call 000 once I saw her on the floor. When did I
When Christina was about to explain. Judy, who was sitting on her right, muttered suddenly, “You talk like you really care about him. I bet you’re gloating inside.”Christina turned her head and uttered while staring at her, “What did you say?”“I said, I want to go to the washroom.” Judy pouted her lips as she stood up and took a turn to the washroom in the corridor.Judy let out a long sigh after she went into the washroom. She went to check every partition to make sure there was nobody in there. Judy then took out her phone from her pocket and dialed a number.After a while, the call went through.“Heather is still in surgery. The doctor said that even if she’s safe, he cannot guarantee that she won’t be in a coma. Now, Michael is starting to suspect Christina. Alright, call me if there’s anything.”After she hung up the phone, Judy lifted her head as she looked into the mirror to check her paled face because of her nervousness. She exhaled deeply, and the scene that happened
“You’re getting out of control. Call the guards and chase her out of here!” Heather ordered Judy, but she did not move a muscle. Thus, Heather stared at her. “Didn’t you hear what I said? Are you turning against me?”“Why can’t I?” Judy sneered. “Heather, ever since I came to the Larson family. You always gave me an attitude, and you would yell at me if things didn’t go your way. I always wanted to ask you, what is your heart made of? How can you be so wicked?”Heather did not imagine the tolerant Judy would turn against her. Then, Heather turned to Winona, who kept her mouth shut.“Have you ever seen such an arrogant servant before? You won’t know your place if I don’t punish you today.” While Heather was cursing, she picked up the cup and threw it at Judy, but Judy dodged it.Judy pointed at Heather. “You old witch. You dare to be this fierce before you die! Do you think no one can punish you?” Judy raised her hand and slapped Heather while she was talking.For her whole life, H
“I’ve already added the stuff in Christina’s spinach soup, and she’ll have a miscarriage in no time. By then, your other grandson will die since he would not have the cord blood too. I’ll make sure that the Larsons will have no heir if Michael doesn’t marry Serena!”“You… How can anyone be so evil?” Heather felt blood rush to her head, and she almost fainted on the spot. Since her legs had not healed, she could not even stand properly and struggled to lift herself from the wheelchair. It was obvious that she wanted to knock over the thermos in Judy’s hands.Unfortunately, Judy realized this immediately and gave Heather a shove. As the old woman lost her balance, she hit her head on the table and fainted.This took Judy by surprise, and she rushed over to take a look. “Thank God she’s still alive. She’s still breathing.”As the three of them placed Heather back into her wheelchair, they covered the bruise on her head and waited for the chauffeur, Mr. Wesley, in the living room.Aft
If Christina had not been worried about Heather’s surgery, she would have left the place. Then, she would not even have to bear this humiliation and embarrassment.Ever since Christina had gotten pregnant, she grew tired very easily, and after standing for so long outside of the operating room, her legs began to give way as she struggled to stand.Logan noticed this. “You’re pregnant now, Miss Williams, so you should go home and rest. I’ll inform you if anything comes up.”Michael turned around and looked at her swollen belly. He looked conflicted with what he was about to say before he told her off again. “Get lost from this place. My mom wouldn’t want to see you either if she got out of the operating room.”Christina did not say anything. She knew how terrible Michael must have been then and decided to let things slide. Judy was the happiest person among them all. As she put up an act, she walked over to advise Christina. “Yeah, Miss Williams. Since things have turned out that
“Yes,” the guard replied. “Doctor Harris was here.”“Doctor Harris said that she brought some beauty products for the Madam.” Judy pointed to the products where Winona had placed them in the living room.Michael took up the things, had a look, and placed it down. “When did Doctor Harris leave?”“Around noon,” Judy replied.Michael nodded his head and looked at the security guard. “Alright, now get me the surveillance tapes from the camera outside.”“The recordings aren’t complete today because we lost power for a few hours,” the guard answered.“A power outage? When did this happen?”“It stopped for around two hours after Doctor Harris had arrived,” the guard said. Michael’s forehead creased when he heard this. After all, he wanted to see what had happened during Winona’s visit, but how was he supposed to do that without the tapes?Wait a second. The security guard said that the power went out after Winona had arrived. Did that mean she had something to do with his mother’s a
“It really wasn’t me, Michael! Why won’t you believe me?” Christina tried to explain to him. “She was already on the floor when I arrived.”“Who would it be other than you?” Michael had an icy expression on his face as the rim of his eyes draped in coldness. “Are you saying that my mom would slap herself intentionally? Are you saying that’s how she fell and fainted?” It did not feel good to be accused of something she did not do, and honestly, Christina had not been expecting Heather’s apology a few days prior. Even the way Heather treated her had changed and Christina could see that she was sincere. Who knew that something so unfortunate like this would happen after that and dragged her along with it?“It wasn’t me! What must I do for you to believe in me?”“You prove that you had nothing to do with my mom’s injuries!”The bad thing was that everything was pointed towards Christina now. Since there were no surveillance tapes nor witnesses, how would Christina obtain the evidence
“Calm down? How am I supposed to calm down? My mom is already in this condition, yet Christina got away unscathed! As Heather’s son, am I supposed to just watch things happen?” Michael raged. “I will send that evil woman to jail!”“You shouldn’t treat Miss Williams that way. She’s pregnant!”“Yeah. Miss Williams is pregnant now, and we shouldn’t send her to the police station,” Judy added.“I don’t care, she’s obviously using my child as ransom right now! There are plenty of women out there who can give me a child. Why should I tie myself to this one? You’ve seen for yourself how vicious Christina is, Logan. How blind was I to keep this kind of person next to me?”Michael must have been entirely consumed by anger for him to say something like that.“Yes, I get it, but you have to think about the kids too. Travis is still sick, and Miss Williams is carrying another child. If she goes to jail, both the children will definitely be affected.”Logan was panicking. Would Michael really
