The sight of the huge mess at home saddened Winnie.

Tears were welling up in her eyes, and Josiah could tell she was deeply hurt.

“Are you okay, Winnie?” he asked with concern, his brows knitted.

Winnie looked up and did her best to hold back her tears, forcing herself to remain rational.

With a choking voice, she said, “I’m fine. Please check on Mary while I go get the first aid kit.”

“Sure!” Josiah immediately knelt down next to Mary to attend to her.

In a flash, Winnie rushed back with the first aid kit and handed it to Josiah.

While dressing Mary’s wound, Josiah stated, “Mary has lost consciousness due to excessive loss of blood. Judging from this, Jacinta must have left quite a while ago. Mary’s wound is pretty deep, so we need to get her to the hospital to stitch it up. I’ll send her there now.”

Winnie frowned and nodded. “Okay, let’s get going. It’ll be faster if you carry her on your back. I’ll help her up.”

Josiah uttered his consent, and in no time, he managed to get Mary onto his back with Winnie’s help.

As he walked out of the room, he said to Winnie, “I guess I can’t check the surveillance footage with you but keep me posted. Remember, two heads are better than one.”

“Okay. Let me walk you out.” Winnie nodded as she walked out with Josiah.

Previously, she had installed surveillance cameras at home, but after Jacinta moved in, she removed them.

Jacinta had complained that those surveillance cameras made her feel uneasy, so Winnie removed all of them except for the camera that faced the elevator.
