"Wait!” Mckenzie raised her hand and grabbed Bailee's wrist. "Was it talking about Grace?”
Bailee was listening to the news. She was so attentive that her heart was thumping and she was trembling.
Grabbed by Mckenzie, Bailee almost screamed with fear. She hurriedly calmed down. "I vaguely heard that it mentioned Grace."
Bearing this, Mckenzie hastily called Grace, only to find that Grace's phone was turned off.
Then Mckenzie called Charlie.
Charlie briefly told her what had happened. Mckenzie was shocked and hurriedly asked the driver to turn the wheel.
When Bailee and Mckenzie arrived at the hospital, the victim’s mother was crying and still beating Charlie.
She grabbed Charlie's clothes, slamming her fist on him.
Charlie was brought up by Mckenzie alone. She had never laid a finger on her son.
How could she bear to see this?
She asked Bailee to wheel her forward. Mckenzie pushed the middle-aged woman with a sullen face.
The woman was grieving. Being pushed by Mckenzie, she was so angry that she slapped Charlie hard across the face.
Mckenzie was furious. "Why are you hitting my son!"
Meanwhile, Charlie kept silent. He gently apologized to the woman with a solemn face and then pulled away Mckenzie." Mom, it's okay."
"What? How many times did she hit you!"
