Chapter 295 She Heard Everything

“Sarah, let me tell you, it was not a car accident at all. Someone hit you on purpose.” Jasmine continued to speak with a serious expression.

Sarah heard what she said and was stunned for a moment. Then she asked in disbelief, “Someone hit me on purpose? Ms. Jasmine, do you mean that there was someone who deliberately hit me in the car accident? That’s not possible, right?”

Sarah felt that this matter was somewhat incomprehensible.

“How is it impossible? Now, the police had already intervened. You should be careful when you go out in the future, okay? “

“Did you find out who is that person?” Sarah continued to ask.

“I asked the police, but they haven’t confirmed it yet, so they can’t tell me for the time being. But I have already confirmed that it was someone else who hit you on purpose. In other words, this is intentional murder. Do you know that?”

“Ah? No way? How could it be so serious? But I don’t usually offend anyone. How is that possible?”

“You just have to listen to this first. When the police report comes out, I will inform you.”

“Okay, I got it.”

“I’ll hang up first.”

“Goodbye, Sis!”

“Bye bye!”

Sarah put away her phone. Vivian teased Simona as she looked at Sarah who was opposite and asked tentatively, “Did something happen? I just heard you say something about a car accident or something?”

Sarah smiled faintly and said, “No! Nothing much!”

The case had not been clarified yet. She did not want the entire Cooper Family to know about it.

Vivian smiled. “Is that so? It’s good that you are alright.”

Some time passed. Because the two children needed to sleep, Sarah and the maternity matron carried the children back to their bedroom while Vivian went back to the room upstairs.

Vivian kept walking back and forth in the bedroom. Thinking about the phone call Sarah just received, her heart was filled with an indescribable fear.

If she did not think of a way again. . . Then it wouldn’t take long before her matter would be exposed.

Vivian walked to the side of the bed and sat down. She thought about what her mother said when she returned from her mother’s house today.

If the Cooper Family’s attention was diverted. . . Then they wouldn’t keep an eye on this. . .

Divert their attention?

But how?

…

Ever since Sarah answered Jasmine’s call, Stephen started to cry. They didn’t know what was going on, but the little guy kept crying with his mouth wide open.

When Sarah returned to her room, she hugged him and coaxed him for a while.

Stephen stopped crying after sometime, but after a while, he would feel wronged and cry again.

Daphne’s heart ached for her grandson. She had been coaxing her little grandson in Sarah’s room until about eleven o’clock.

The little fellow was unable to endure the torture of sleepiness. After eating the milk, he fell asleep in Sarah’s arms.

Daphne saw that her grandson finally stopped crying. Only then did she feel at ease and leave Sarah’s bedroom. She instructed Maternity Matron to take good care of Sarah and the two children at night.

After hearing the other party’s promise, she dragged her body and went up the stairs tiredly.

When Daphne walked into her room, she saw Vivian sitting on the sofa waiting for her. She immediately walked over with some puzzlement.

“Vivian, why are you here? Is there anything I can help you with?” During this period of time, Vivian had handled the matters in the company very well, so Daphne’s impression of this daughter-in-law was already much better.

“Oh, I have nothing much to do. I just want to chat with you Mom. That’s right. Mom, how’s Dad’s health?” Vivian saw Daphne walk over and got up to greet her. She supported Daphne and sat down on the sofa.

Daphne shook her head, “Sigh. . . It’s still the same as before. I wonder when Ethan will wake up?”

Daphne sighed in disappointment at the end of her sentence.

“Mom, you need to take this kind of thing slowly. Don’t be too anxious. What if you tire yourself out?”

Daphne nodded. “Yes. I am indeed a little tired after not sleeping well in the hospital for the past few days. I felt like I was in a trance when I looked at things today. I don’t know what was going on.”

Daphne raised her hand and rubbed her forehead as she spoke.

“Mom, actually, you know what? You are just too anxious. Dad has not woken up yet. Actually, you can think of it this way. He’s too tired from all these years of work. He wants to have a good rest for a while, that’s why he’s unwilling to wake up. Just think of it as him acting coquettishly to you right now. Just take good care of him, don’t be too anxious. Maybe one day, he’ll wake up, don’t you think so?”

Daphne nodded in agreement, “En, Vivian, you are right. I will think that way in the future.”

After Daphne finished speaking, she felt some pain in her head and wanted to rest earlier so she looked at Vivian and said, “Vivian, it is already eleven o’clock and it is not early anymore. You should go back and rest. . .”

“Okay! Mom, I have been a little tired in the company these days. There are too many things and I also feel that I cannot bear it. I really don’t know how Julian managed to survive by himself.”

Vivian wanted to stand up as she spoke, but just as she stood up, her small face suddenly twisted into a ball in pain. She covered her stomach with her hand and sat back down again with a cry.

“Vivian, what happened to you?” Seeing Vivian’s expression, Daphne immediately looked at her nervously and asked.

“Mom. . . I have been on my period these two days. I have been suffering from menstruation cramps in the past. People say that after giving birth, it will not hurt anymore. . . Aiyo. . . But why do I still feel pain after coming here? Oh god. . .”

Vivian said as she clenched her teeth in pain. She used her hands to cover her stomach. It looked like the pain was not ordinary.

Daphne looked at her nervously, “I will go to the living room to see if there are any painkillers.”

As she spoke, she got up and was about to leave.

“Mom! Forget about that kind of thing. It’s not good for the body if I keep eating pain killers. In the past when I suffered from pain, my mom would always cook me some ginger soup and add some sugar inside. Why don’t you cook some for me. . . Oh well, forget it. I should go by myself. . . You have also been tired for the whole day. . . Hiss. . .”

Vivian stood up in pain as she spoke and bent her waist in pain as she wanted to leave.

Daphne reached out and grabbed her arm, “You should rest. I have pretty much rested during this period of time when I am home. Boiling a bowl of sugar water is not a problem. . .” Daphne said as she stood up.

“Mom, why not let Hannah cook it. But she should be asleep at this time. . . Furthermore, I am also worried that she will not do it well. Forget it, I will go. . .” Vivian stood up again with a frown on her face.

“No need! I can cook it myself. Oh, right. Since you’re not feeling well, go back to your bedroom and rest. I’ll send it up to you later.”

Vivian nodded and looked at Daphne and said, “Then it will be hard on you. Mom. I will go upstairs first.” Finishing, Viviam covered her stomach and left Daphne’s bedroom in extreme pain.

Daphne and Vivian walked to the staircase together. Seeing that Vivian went upstairs, Daphne then lifted her foot and walked downstairs.

When Vivian went to the second and third floor’s rest platform, she looked down and heard Daphne’s footsteps coming down to the living room before going back to her bedroom.

When Daphne went down to the first floor, it was already 11: 30.

Even the maids went to sleep. The main lamp in the living room had already been turned off. Only the wall lamp in the corridor was shining with a warm light.

Daphne went straight to the kitchen after going downstairs. She cut some ginger first and started to boil the sugar water. The sugar water boiled very quickly. Daphne poured the sugar water into the porcelain bowl and then put it on the tray. Only then did she turn off the kitchen light and carry it upstairs.

The entire living room of the villa was silent.

Other than Daphne and Vivian, everyone in the house was sleeping.

Daphne carried the tray all the way to the third floor. When she reached the door of Vivian’s bedroom, she heard some sounds.

Hearing the voices coming from inside, she understood that Vivian was probably on the phone right now. She reached out her hand to push open the bedroom door and walked in.

Because Daphne walked lightly and Vivian, who was in the bedroom, had her back to the door, she did not know that Daphne had already entered the room.

“Mom, I also do not know what to do now. Sarah has already heard about the news. It probably won’t be long before the people of Cooper Family know that Sarah’s accident is related to me. . .”

Vivian said as she turned around and wanted to sit down by the bed gloomily.

But just as she turned around, she saw Daphne looking at her in surprise. The hands that were holding the tray were trembling non-stop!

“Vivian! You!” Daphne looked at Vivian in disbelief. She simply could not believe what she had just heard!

Vivian also did not expect that Daphne would hear everything she said. Seeing the tray in Daphne’s hands trembling non-stop, she ran over to catch it.

Vivian looked at Daphne as she wanted to explain. “Mom. . . It is not what you think. . .”

“I will tell Sarah!” Daphne said as she turned around and quickly walked out of the room!

Vivian placed the tray in her hand on the ground and quickly chased out!

When she went out, she was afraid that the sound of her running would wake up the people at home. Vivian even directly kicked off the slippers on her feet and ran downstairs barefooted.

Daphne was so angry that her entire body kept trembling, but she was still a little old. When she went down to the second floor, Vivian quickly caught up and reached out to grab her.

“Mom, can you go back and listen to my explanation first?” Vivian softly looked at Daphne and pleaded.

“Let go of me!” Daphne hatefully threw Vivian’s hand away and continued to walk down the stairs!

The stairs from the living room to the first floor of the villa were different from the ones on the second and third floors. There was no resting platform in the middle. It was from the second floor to the bottom.

Just as Daphne walked to the staircase to lift her foot and wanted to go downstairs, Vivian stretched out her hand and wanted to grab Daphne’s hand.

At this time, Daphne hated Vivian to the extreme that she lifted her hand to throw Vivian away again. But Vivian went to grab her other wrist and Daphne turned around to try to break free.

But for some reason, when the two of them were pushing and shoving, Daphne felt that her feet had stepped on empty air and her body was caught off guard as she fell backwards!

Vivian did not even reach out to grab it when she saw Daphne’s body fall backward on the stairs. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

The stairs were too high. When Daphne fell down, the back of her head hit the stairs heavily and her body rolled down the stairs in a moment. She directly fell into the living room!

Daphne was not sure if it was because she was too panicked, but during the whole process, she did not even call for help and fainted
