"Calm down! Calm down!" Yoel held down Xenia's hand with his free hand. "Skylar is going to sue her, so she came to me."
"Really?"
Xenia looked at Yoel dubiously.
"It's true, I swear! Besides, don't you know Skylar's wife? Why don't you ask her?"
Yoel was really scared when Xenia pulled his arm.
He understood Xenia's personality. She had kicked his car in a fit of rage and even scratched his car with her keys. It would be no surprise if she really broke his arms now.
"So she doesn't know who I am? And you didn't tell her anything about me?"
Xenia was still reluctant to let the matter go.
"Yes..."
"Are you Yoel?"
As soon as Yoel answered Xenia's question, two policemen in uniforms entered the ward.
One of them was the one who had just talked to Xenia.
When the policeman saw Xenia holding Yoel's arm, he felt confused. "Do you guys know each other?"
"Yes." Xenia immediately admitted. "Sir, have you asked why that woman hit us?"
"Not at the moment."
The policeman glanced at Xenia. As the case was still in the investigation stage, it was not convenient for them to disclose it.
"Alright, you can leave now. We're going to question him."
The other policeman began to send Xenia away.
"Can't I stay here?"
"No, you can't."
Although Xenia was reluctant, she was still sent out by the police.
After Xenia left, the police closed the door to the ward.
Xenia desperately leaned against the door, trying to listen. However, the ward was soundproof and the police officers did not talk loudly. Hence, even when she tried for a long time, she still heard nothing.
She could only turn around and call Coralie to ask about Amelia.
It was already in the evening when Coralie was taking a rest after dinner when she received a call from Xenia.
"Coralie, do you know Amelia?"
Xenia asked immediately as soon as the call was connected.
"Amelia? Valerie's mother?"
Coralie was a little surprised. She did not expect that Xenia would call to ask her this.
"Yes, today I had a quarrel with Harvey in the hospital, and suddenly, a car ran into me. Harvey is now in the emergency room after saving my life and the driver was Amelia..."
"Amelia? Did she run into you with a car?"
"Yes and we were in the parking lot. Logically speaking, she shouldn't have driven so fast, but she did anyway. I think that she did it on purpose."
Xenia didn't hide anything from Coralie and told her her own assumptions.
"But why did she hit you? If she had to hit someone with her car, she would have hit me..."
Coralie did not understand it at all. After all, if Amelia still had hatred towards anyone, it would definitely be directed towards Coralie or Skylar. She couldn't figure out the connection to Xenia.
Xenia was the daughter of the prestigious Lowell Group. Amelia was such a smart person. Wouldn't she have thought twice before hitting others?
"I don't know, but I don't think it's that simple."
"Or maybe it was a mistake in stepping on the accelerator pedal, thinking that it was the brake?"
Although Coralie could not drive, she still felt that Amelia had no reason to hit Xenia.
"But she didn't even use the signals. She just rushed straight into us. Even if she was in a hurry, she should've signaled to us!"
In others' eyes, this might've been an accident.
