Looking at Scott's pale and soft face, I said to myself.
Scott naturally couldn't answer me at this time. I wiped her fingers carefully. Looking at her lying quietly on the bed, I felt bitter.
"Mom, you must wake up. Do you know? Dad is waiting for you. You can't be so selfish. No matter what you become, you are my mom. You said that you will protect me. Mom, you can't break your promise."
I knew that this kind of thing was a great blow to Scott. However, no matter what, I hoped that she could be strong.
I hoped that she could open her eyes and face it bravely.
"Mom, I will find the murderer. I will let that person experience the pain you have suffered."
I clenched my fists and looked out of the window with a fierce look.
Lorraine, you'd better have nothing to do with this matter. Otherwise, no matter how powerful you were, I would make you pay the price.
"Sunny, something bad happened."
When I was sleeping by my mother's bed, Cornelia ran to me in a panic, shook my body hard, and said with a terrified expression.
"What's wrong?" I rubbed my eyes and asked her. "Something happened to Ashe."
Cornelia looked at me and stammered.
Upon hearing this, my mind became sober in an instant.
"What? Why did he have an accident? What happened?"
"Just now... we fed Ashe the noodles you made. After eating, he was twitching all over and foaming at the mouth with a painful expression. Edward has sent him to the hospital. I was scared and didn't follow him. I just remembered that you were here and came up..."
"Ashe!"
I opened my eyes wide in horror, pushed Cornelia away, and rushed out of the room. Just as I was about to go downstairs, Cornelia caught up with me, grabbed my wrist, and said to me with a frown, "Sunny, it's dangerous for you to drive because you're anxious. I'll take you to the hospital."
"Okay." I could only nod helplessly. All I wanted to do was to see Ashe in the hospital.
What on earth happened to Ashe? Why did it happen?
At the hospital.
"Edward... How is Ashe?" Cornelia sent me to the hospital as fast as she could. After I arrived, I rushed directly to Edward. When Edward saw me, he reached out his arms and held me in his arms.
"Ashe is my son. I'm sure he'll be fine."
"Yeah, he'll definitely be fine." Hearing Edward's words, I said with my lips trembling.
"It's all because of her, Eddie. She wants to kill Ashe."
Just as I hugged Edward and waited for Ashe to come out quietly, Ethel suddenly came over and pulled me away with force. She pointed at me and said angrily.
"Ethel, what nonsense are you talking about?" Edward frowned and looked at Ethel coldly.
"Eddie, believe me, it must be Ashley. She is mentally ill, otherwise, she would not have killed Betty. Now she still wants to kill Ashe because Ashe is afraid of her. Eddie, Ashley is really horrible."
Ethel said to Edward in fear.
"What evidence do you have to prove that I hurt Ashe?"
Just as Edward was about to say something, I stopped him and said to Ethel with cold eyes.
"Ashe was poisoned because of the noodles you made. The noodles were made by you, right?"
Noodles?
How could there be something wrong with the noodles?
I looked at Ethel and then looked at Edward blankly.
"Ashe was indeed poisoned after eating the noodles. I have already asked someone to give the noodles to Stewart for examination. The results will come out soon."
"Eddie, don't believe Ashley. She's no longer the Ashley she used to be. She's a murderer." Ethel looked at Edward with grievance and said to me with hatred.
Looking at Ethel's resentful look, I narrowed my eyes and looked at her coldly, "Do you want to accuse me of being the murderer so much? Ethel, you poisoned the noodles, right?"
"You're slandering me."
Ethel was so angry by my words that her whole body was trembling.
I looked at Ethel with a sneer and said disdainfully, "I let you live here because I thought that your life was very poor. However, Ethel, what you have done really let me down. I'll send you abroad as a reward for saving Edward."
"No. Eddie, I don't want to leave you."
Ethel didn't expect that I would say this, and she was scared. She turned back to look at Edward with fear in her eyes.
I also looked at Edward and said coldly, "Edward, do you have any problem with my words?"
If he dared speak for Ethel, I wouldn't let him go easily.
