Chapter 259: Chapter 259

In the middle of the night, this sudden incident naturally woke up Aurora Sutton and the others.

The boss took Monica Cole to the hospital, while other staff members were left to watch over.

For now, they didn’t know how Monica Cole fell into the river.

Mr. and Mrs. Sutton, half asleep, asked in shock, "How did this suddenly happen?"

Aurora Sutton and Zia Sutton were also bewildered.

Thea Shaw saw Lorraine York, who had strong psychological resilience, return to her room. She thought of the scene she had witnessed earlier, paused silently, and nudged Aurora Sutton, who was also standing in the corridor feeling the night breeze.

Aurora Sutton swayed slightly but didn’t fall. She was a bit panicked: "Thea, what are you doing?"

Thea Shaw remained silent for a few seconds and said, "Nothing, I just saw Lorraine push Monica."

"Ah?!"

The group was dumbfounded when this bombshell was dropped.

Mrs. Sutton was shocked and couldn’t believe it: "Her cousin pushed her?"

Thea Shaw nodded. Her eyesight and hearing were excellent, and besides, there was lighting on the opposite side. She had not seen incorrectly.

Mr. Sutton’s face fell for a moment but then quickly calmed down and said, "It’s okay, you all go back to rest. I’ll go ask the boss, and we’ll leave first thing in the morning."

Thea Shaw nodded and didn’t say anything further.

Aurora Sutton and Zia Sutton still found it hard to believe and asked Thea Shaw again, "Did you really see clearly?"

Thea Shaw nodded.

Zia Sutton and Aurora Sutton did not expect that someone capable of murder was staying across from them.

Though the river was not very deep, it was enough to drown someone who couldn’t swim.

They didn’t know if Monica Cole could swim, but they couldn’t sleep well after returning later that night, tossing and turning.

Until the next dawn, when they heard noises outside.

Mr. Sutton asked Thea Shaw and the others to get up and leave now.

Zia Sutton, extremely tired, couldn’t help but ask, "What about Monica Cole?"

"In the hospital."

Mr. Sutton didn’t say much more, just urged them to hurry and leave.

Only after they drove away did Mr. Sutton say, "After Monica woke up, she mentioned that she did have a dispute with Lorraine, who was called to the hospital, but Lorraine doesn’t admit to having pushed Monica. Monica is somewhat afraid of her and only says she forgot. Uncle Cole checked the footage, and there indeed was a dispute between Lorraine and Monica. It wasn’t clear enough to capture how Monica was pushed, but Lorraine indeed made a move."

"Ah?"

Zia Sutton expressed surprise, "So is this matter just going to be left like that? Isn’t Uncle Cole going to deal with it?"

"Certainly it will be dealt with." Mr. Sutton shook his head. "It’s not my place to interfere with other people’s family affairs. From the looks of Old Cole, it seems he’s going to send Lorraine back."

Mrs. Sutton couldn’t help but say, "So malicious at such a young age, no wonder she looked down on me when I gave her a red envelope last night. Who owes her anything, really! If it were me, I would certainly call the police; after all, the victim is his own daughter!"

But how the boss chooses to handle it, it’s not the Sutton Family’s concern.

Besides, this matter has nothing to do with the Sutton Family.

Zia Sutton said angrily, "Monica is usually so sensible, now being bullied by this outsider cousin who dared to push her into the river, almost killing her. Her father will definitely be angry about this."

Thea Shaw sat in the back seat, continually playing with her chin while listening to their discussion, not inserting comments much.

It wasn’t until they returned to Aethelgard that the matter became unrelated to the Sutton Family. Zia Sutton and Aurora Sutton returned to school, at most keeping the incident in mind or occasionally checking on that Monica Cole sister.
