Chapter 1024 - 1063: Fear
"Brother, I’m not wrong, am I? Isn’t this exactly how it is?" Alessia Quinn coldly laughed. "When the police came here previously, wasn’t it clear? Uncle intentionally swerved the car when it crashed, didn’t he? It was as if he was deliberately protecting the passenger seat, otherwise, how could Uncle be so severely injured and still be in the surgery room now!"
Mabel Quinn felt a pang in her heart. No matter what Alessia said, she didn’t retaliate. She only wanted to be concerned about Uncle’s injuries and waited for him to come out.
But Alice Conley couldn’t stand it and said directly, "You should be finding out the true cause of this car accident, not blaming Mabel here. Can Mabel sitting in the passenger seat control whether the car has an accident? It’s like if one day you dress lightly while walking on the street and a rapist targets you, then that rapist dares to blame you, the victim, for why you dressed like that. According to your thinking, isn’t that what’s correct?"
Alessia widened her eyes, "Alice Conley, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Alice laughed coldly, "No matter how nonsensical, it’s not as absurd as yours."
Alessia wanted to say more, but Christopher Quinn stopped her. Then, Christopher spoke to Dorian Howards, "I’m really sorry. My daughter is only concerned about her uncle."
"No problem, it’s just my wife is a bit outspoken." Dorian said indifferently, "But from what I know, this accident was caused by Mr. Edward Quinn’s car having brake issues, which led to it being unable to stop and crashing into the parked car ahead. Shouldn’t the Quinn family consider how the car’s brakes malfunctioned?"
These words pointed directly to the crux of the matter.
Christopher quickly acknowledged. Meanwhile, Michael Quinn, standing by Alessia’s side, had a flicker in his eyes. He had meddled with Uncle’s car brakes.
Though Uncle had expelled him from the Quinn family and made him hand over all the family’s keys, he naturally had duplicates. Last night, he sabotaged the Quinn family’s rear door surveillance and sneaked in, tampering with Uncle’s car.
Once the car drove a certain distance and reached beyond 60 mph, the brakes would fail, leading to a probable accident.
But he didn’t expect Mabel to be on the car with Uncle. And behind Mabel, there was Kyle Kinston.
If Kyle investigates, then he... Michael’s heart was filled with fear, his glance flickering unpredictably as he looked at Mabel.
However, Alessia was thinking why Mabel wasn’t killed in the car accident. Especially upon learning about the crash, with Uncle protecting Mabel like that, the more Alessia thought about it, the more she felt that Mabel might be Uncle’s child.
Outside the surgery room, all was quiet. Mabel stared intently at the "In Surgery" sign lit on the door.
She knew from Alice that she had been unconscious for about five hours, and Uncle was taken into the surgery room with her. Yet he was still in surgery.
But there was nothing she could do, the only thing she could do was keep praying.
Finally, the sign dimmed, and a few minutes later, Edward Quinn was wheeled out. Mabel saw only his head and body wrapped in thick bandages, his complexion as white as the fabric, making him look lifeless, as if he wasn’t breathing.
