The beautiful mansion shone brightly in the sunlight, with every corner of the yard exuding elegance.
The kids just went to the ski resort.
On the lush green lawn, Justin Kingston sat on the open-air sofa, sipping tea against the wind, admiring the clouds rolling and unrolling on the horizon.
Aunt Zhou stood beside him, watching his furrowed brow, hesitating to speak several times.
"Is there something you want to say?" Justin didn’t look at her, his gaze still fixed on the horizon.
This perception made Aunt Zhou involuntarily shiver.
She respectfully bent over and bravely spoke, "This morning... while Miss Lane was making noodles for you, I asked her a question."
Justin turned his gaze, eyes gentle, "What question?"
"I asked her why she left with Anton Miller outside the rescue room..." Aunt Zhou’s tone carried a hint of apprehension.
The question that had troubled him for a long time was finally about to have an answer?
Justin focused his attention on her, "Why?"
"She only said... he’s about to get married, is the answer important to him?" Aunt Zhou finished, lowering her gaze further.
Upon hearing this, Justin frowned and felt a deep pain in his chest!
Fool, of course, it’s important!
Justin’s eyes turned dull, and a nameless anger rose in his heart!
After a while, the phone rang, and Aunt Zhou turned and left; work matters weren’t suitable for her to hear.
Justin took out the phone, glanced at the caller ID, and swiped his finger over the answer key, gently placing the phone to his ear.
"CEO Kingston, the complete surveillance you requested has been sent to your WeChat."
Justin ended the call.
His heart trembled subtly, what truth would he see?
A bit expectant, yet a bit fearful.
Justin suppressed the intense emotions boiling within, opened WeChat, and clicked on the ten-minute-long surveillance video.
Outside the rescue room, some people stood, Mia was not there, nor was his mother.
Soon, his mother appeared on the screen dragging Mia.
"If my son dies, I’ll make you pay with your life!" his mother spoke wildly, filled with hatred, "Don’t think of living another second!"
Justin noticed that Mia was barefoot, wearing a patient’s gown, appearing very fragile.
"Is Justin inside? What happened to him?" Her voice was full of panic, as if she was unaware of the car accident.
The atmosphere at the scene was tense.
The light above the rescue room’s door flashed intensely, no one answered her questions.
His mother glared at her with hatred, as if wishing to crush her.
Soon, Justin saw the doors of the rescue room open, and Monica Usher emerged covered in blood.
Her eyes were lifeless, she moved step by step without strength, like a walking corpse.
"How is he? Why did you come out?"
She murmured, "Still in rescue, Justin is already unconscious."
Justin sat on the open-air sofa, yet continually observed Mia Lane’s expression and state.
It was evident she was extremely worried, "What... happened to him? Why is he being rescued?" Her heart was full of fear.
At this time, someone spoke, "Mr. Kingston went to Aethelburg to find you, and when he saw you crossing the street to get on a car, he rushed into the traffic in a panic, regardless of his own safety, just to prevent you from disappearing from him again..."
This was the reason for the car accident.
For the first time, Justin learned such a real and credible version.
If he could risk his life for her, how important must Mia Lane be to him?
In the surveillance footage, Justin saw her crying like rain, and his heart ached as well.
"Why don’t you just die?!" His mother’s sudden scream caused Justin’s heart to contract sharply! Follow current novels on novel(ꜰ)ire.net

A fierce slap landed on Mia’s pale face, also hitting Justin’s heart.
