Chapter 191

She hurriedly approached Margaret and kneeled at her side. Irene saw that both Margaret's eyes were tightly closed, and her face was pale. There was a palm print on her face, and the right side of her forehead was red and swollen. It was as if she had been hit by something.

Her heart sank as she patted Margaret's shoulders lightly while she called, "Mrs. Myers..Mrs. Myers.." repeatedly. Margaret was still unconscious, so she quickly checked her pulse and breathing. They were weak, and she could not help but feel even more anxious. She called for Loraine as she dug out her phone from her handbag and dialed the emergency line.

While she was on the line, Loraine came up to her. She jumped at the sight of the situation in the room, "Oh no, Miss Nelson! What did you do to Madam? Did you hit her?"

Irene hung up on the call and frowned, "What are you talking about? I saw her lying on the ground as soon as I came in. I don't know what happened."

Loraine glared at her suspiciously, "That's impossible. Mrs. Myers was still in good condition when I left the house. How can she be unconscious on the floor without any reason? Look at the palm print on her face. You must have slapped her just now when you came in. You even pushed her to the ground. How could you do something like this?"

"I didn't. Stop talking nonsense!" Irene was infuriated and worried. She could not understand how she was being misunderstood. She glanced at Margaret, who was lying unconscious and knew that there was no time to argue. She had to save Margaret first.

She asked Loraine to carefully turn over Margaret's body and her head to one side. Then, she covered her with the quilt to prevent her from getting cold and worsening her injury.

However, while she was doing all that, Loraine ran and called for help from the people downstairs, "Help! Mrs. Myers has fainted! Help!"

Irene ignored her. She picked up her phone and called Edric.

"Irene, what's the matter?" Edric's voice was full of joy. It was rare for Irene to call him. So, it was only natural for him to be elated.

Irene bit her lips and said, "Edric, I'm at your house now. Your mother has fainted. Come back quickly."

Edric took a sharp breath, "What did you say? What happened to my mother?"

"I don't know what happened either. You'd better come back quickly, and we'll talk about it later!" She couldn't explain the whole situation clearly on the line. It would be better for her to explain it to Edric in person.

Edric replied hurriedly, "Okay, I'll go back right away. Have you called the ambulance?"

"Yes, the ambulance should be arriving soon."
