Shane took out his phone, walked to the side, and made a call.

He said something to the other party on the call and hung up within two minutes.

Natalie stared at him with reddened eyes. “How was it?”

He shook his head gently. “The police said that some officers will be coming over immediately to fill us in on the details.”

“Okay,” replied Natalie, her hands clasped together tightly.

Soon, the police officers arrived.

“Are you Mr. Shane and Ms. Smith?” he asked, looking at both of them.

When Natalie heard his voice, she was surprised. “Are you the person who called me earlier and informed me about my Mom?”

“Yes.” The inspector nodded.

Natalie brushed past Shane and grabbed his sleeve. “Sir, please tell me how my Mom got into the accident.”

“The lady from the Smith family claimed that your Mom slipped and fell down the stairs,” replied the inspector.

“How is that possible?” Natalie's fingers dug into her palms. She refused to believe in this explanation.

Shane took a step forward and hugged her shoulders. Looking at the inspector, he asked, “How did you know that my mother-in-law fell down the stairs?”

“The head of the Smith family called the police,” said the inspector.
