Chapter 309

Carrying a heavy heart, Susan, weighed down by guilt, spent a long time caring for Penny at the hospital before she finally left.

“Okay, let it go,” Ben comforted, softly tousling her hair. “We’ll find a way to make it right with her. That’s what counts.”

“Yeah,” Susan agreed, attempting to sound more upbeat. “I’m the reason she injured her leg. Ben, I see now that I’ve been too small–minded. Going forward, I’m going to be genuinely kind to her.”

Ben nodded but didn’t say much.

He kept his suspicions to himself.

Everything would wait until the investigation results were in.

Penny was hospitalized for a few days.

During this time, Judith and Susan made several trips to the hospital.

Ben also spent these days thoroughly investigating the matter.

To his surprise, the incident wasn’t a self–staged drama by Penny.

He looked into the owner of the red car involved.

A man who had spent his whole life in Coraland, making any ties to Penny pretty much a long shot.

Moreover, the surveillance footage showed that the crash was caused by a sudden argument between

the couple in the car. In anger, the man drove recklessly, and unexpectedly, the brakes failed, leading to

the accident.

If it was intentional, the argument beforehand seemed unnecessary.

Moreover, the brake failure was indeed confirmed upon inspection.
