Chapter 255 Slander

Maggie had always been wary of Beth, for she never believed that a woman who saw her as a love rival. would harbour any good intentions.

At first, when she saw Beth standing motionless, Maggie let her guard down a bit, only to realise that something was off about the passing waiter.

The tray he carried no longer bore glasses filled with wine, but only two empty ones. Without drinks, there was no need for him to purposefully head upstairs; he should have gone down to replace the glasses.

In her moment of realisation, the waiter suddenly turned, discarded his tray, and thrust violently towards her back.

With quick reflexes, Maggie steadied herself on the stair railing and dodged to the side.

The attacker hadn’t anticipated her alertness. Having missed his target, he tumbled headfirst down the

stairs.

“Urghhh!”

A scream rang out as the waiter crashed down, rolling several times before coming to a stop on the ground. floor’s carpet.

The onlookers, visibly shaken by the sight, gasped at the commotion.

The woman briskly retreated two steps, casting a glance downward. The commotion also attracted a large number of onlookers in the vicinity.

Maggie stood firm, clutching the railing, sweating a cold sweat from the close call.

If the waiter had succeeded, she couldn’t imagine how bad her fall could have been.

However, in her haste, she inadvertently twisted her ankle again during the attack.

She was speechless, cursing her poor luck for the month.

Maggie stood still. From where she stood, she could see the fallen waiter, a young man probably in his early twenties, his face scraped from the fall.

He slammed his forehead against the stairs‘ edge. Blood trickled down from his forehead, staining the dark brown carpet with drops resembling dark red flowers–a chilling sight.
