Chapter 375 I Really Didn't Push Her. She Fell By Herself


Upon hearing the scream, everyone bolted upstairs, and the media folks barged in like a stampede.

When they saw Marigold sprawled out on the floor with blood trickling down her forehead, the camera flashes were blinding. "Mom!" Alaric yelled, panic-stricken, and dashed over to her.

No time to think, he shouted, "Call an ambulance!"

He scooped up Marigold and sprinted out.

The reporters swarmed Stellan like vultures, bombarding her with questions.

"What happened? Did you push Mrs. Knight down?"

"Was it an accident or on purpose? What were you two fighting about? Spill the details!"

"Mrs. Knight's pretty old; falling down those stairs must've messed her up bad. If she croaks, you're in deep trouble, you know that?"

Stellan's head was spinning; the reporters wouldn't let up, firing questions non-stop.
