"I think that we have to look at the evidence about whether these gentlemen slandered Ms. Madden or not, not just by relying on what others say. Don't you agree?" Mrs. Leigh suddenly let go of her husband's arm, stepped forward, and said to the crowd with a meaningful smile.
The crowd nodded, feeling that it was justified.
Lyra's heart skipped a beat when she looked at the smile on Mrs. Leigh's face. An ominous feeling instantly rose, causing her body to tense.
Julien sensed Lyra's strange behavior and lowered his head to ask her, "What's wrong?"
"I... I'm fine." Lyra forced a smile on her face. "I'm just hurting a little from the fall. Julien, can you take me to the doctor?"
Her intuition told her to get out of this place right away.
Otherwise, something beyond her control would happen.
Julien subconsciously wanted to tell her that he would take her after this matter was resolved.
However, when he looked at Lyra's begging eyes, he finally nodded and agreed.
He held Lyra's arm and turned to leave.
Sydney's sharp eyes narrowed and she called out to them coldly, "Stop. This matter hasn't been cleared up yet. Where do you think you're going?"
"Exactly. You guys said that Sydney pushed Lyra, but my darling is still standing here without leaving. Why are you leaving instead? Are you feeling guilty?" Luke also said.
Hunter and Layden nodded as well.
A trace of mockery flashed in Mrs. Leigh's eyes.
"We're not leaving," Lyra turned around with reddened eyes and said in an aggrieved voice, "I'm in pain so I want to see a doctor. Julien can testify."
Julien nodded slightly, indicating that she was telling the truth. "We'll come back after seeing the doctor."
"Who knows how long it'll take before you guys come back?" Layden crossed his arms and said in a cold voice.
"Exactly. You can't go to a doctor by yourself either. What if the injury gets worse? It's better to call the doctor over. Is that all right, Mrs. Leigh?" Hunter looked at Mrs. Leigh.
Mrs. Leigh nodded. "Of course."
Then, she beckoned a waiter and told him to get a doctor.
Lyra was too late to stop them and could only watch as the waiter walked away. Her heart burned with
fury.
'I knew it.
'These people are all targeting me. They're not letting me leave on purpose!'
"Ms. Madden, your expression seems a bit odd. Is it because you're not happy that we called a doctor for you? You can't be like that. We're doing this for your own good. It's bad enough if you're not grateful, but how could you get angry as well? You're too much." Luke looked at Lyra and criticized her with an expression saying that she was very insensible.
The others also echoed, "Yes, Ms. Madden. That's not right of you."
"You..." Lyra was going mad with anger.
Julien patted her shoulder. "All right, Lyra. They're right. You shouldn't be angry."
’I..." Lyra's body trembled.
'I'm not angry about that.
'I'm angry because these people are stopping me from leaving!'
However, she could not say those words. She could only try her best to suppress her anger and stopped talking.
Soon, the doctor came.
Everyone was watching, so Lyra did not dare to refuse and could only let the doctor examine her.
After the doctor finished the examination, he said," The lady is fine. She just has a minor scrape on her arm. Just put a band-aid on it."
"All right. Send the doctor out," Mrs. Leigh said to the waiter who brought the doctor over.
