Chapter 9 Auri And Her Secrets

Finished

Worried that Mabel might be anxious, Aurelia quickly asked, “Which hospital is it? I’ll head over right now.”

After Mabel mentioned the hospital, Aurelia hung up the phone.

Looking at her family before her, she uttered apologetically, “There are some matters I need to attend to. Old Mrs. Quigley needs me, so I’ll return in a few days once I’m done.”

Phyllis and the others had all heard about Mabel, who was a friend of their neighbor in the countryside, Hannah.

After Aurelia left, Phyllis let out a sigh. “The Leedon family probably hasn’t been treating Auri well. As her mother, how could I not notice the changes in her? She’s keeping secrets, not wanting us to worry.”

Xavier was always composed. After a moment of contemplation, he said, “I will spend more time chatting with Auri these next couple of days.”

“I should also pay more attention to Auri,” Charlie added.

Herbert was a high school student, full of youthful vigor. “If the Leedon family dares to bully Aurelia, I will fight them to the end!”

Aurelia arrived at the hospital quite swiftly.

Seeing Mabel anxiously waiting in the corridor, she quickly walked over.

Upon arriving in front of Mabel, she said, “Hey, Grandma.”

Upon seeing Aurelia arrive, Mabel immediately grasped her hand. “Auri, you have no idea how. terrifying it was! It was a chain–reaction car accident, and the car that got crushed was the one right in front of Matthew’s. It was so close, so very close. I almost lost Matthew!”

On her way to the hospital, Aurelia saw the news on her phone.

Upon learning of a horrific multi–car collision on the overpass, where more than a dozen vehicles had crashed into each other, it was reported that one car was crushed by an overturned oil tanker. Tragically, all the occupants of that car were killed instantly.

The individuals from the several cars that collided with each other were almost all injured and were immediately rushed to the hospital.

The specific details were not thoroughly discussed in the news.

Seeing Mabel so heartbroken at the moment. Aurelia thought Matthew was seriously hurt.

“Grandma, don’t worry, Mr. Quigley will definitely be all right,” Aurelia reassured gently.

Mabel nodded, her eyes brimming with tears.
