Predestined Marriage
Chapter 251: Do You Have an Alibi

The servant called the others over.

Summer was a little dumbfounded by what happened in front of her. Seeing everyone was around Charlie, Summer started to run downstairs. "Dad! What's wrong with you, Dad?" Violet also came over.

She only took two steps down the stairs when she saw Leonardo and Michael came over in a hurry.

Leonardo looked up in her direction as if he had sensed something.

He frowned slightly as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he only glanced at her and didn't say anything.

His eyes were extremely cold.

Summer walked over and knelt on the ground, calling Charlie, "Grandpa?"

Charlie fell down from such a high staircase and lost so much blood. And he was already very old, so no one dared to touch him.

Charlie didn't have any reaction and had already fainted.

The family doctor quickly came over and bound up Charlie's wounds. He was then taken to the hospital.

The Emersons all followed to the hospital.

Before leaving, Michael turned his head to look at the servant who had first discovered Charlie and said, "You come with us."

Fortunately, the Emersons had a private hospital and Charlie could have a surgery immediately.

"We have a preliminary diagnosis of intracranial hemorrhage and multiple fractures. His condition is not optimistic. He needs an operation immediately." The doctor's words made everyone's expression to change abruptly, and the atmosphere became intense.

The door to the operating room was closed and everyone was waiting outside.

Summer looked at Leonardo beside her. Seeing his cold expression, she reached out and held his hand. However, Leonardo did not hold her hand as usual, nor did he look back at her.

At this moment, Michael started to inquiry in the silent corridor.

"Who discovered Mr. Charlie first?" His voice was solemn.

Summer heard this and looked over.

"It's me." A servant who had come with them answered.

The servant seemed to be afraid that Michael would blame her for this matter. Her expression was extremely pale and her voice was filled with panic.

As if she suddenly remembered something, she pointed at Summer and said, "I heard the voice of Mrs. Emerson. When I went over, Mr. Charlie had already fallen downstairs."

Hearing this, Michael looked at Summer and said, "Summer, tell me, what happened?"

As soon as he said those words, everyone stared at Summer.

Summer suddenly got a bad feeling.

They thought she pushed Charlie down the stairs?

Summer calmed down and said, "Previously, a servant came to call me and told me that Grandpa wanted me to come over. When I went over, there was no one in his room. I heard some noises from the stairs. When I walked over, Grandpa had already fallen."

Hearing this, Michael asked in a deep voice, "Which servant told you to go over?"

Summer shook her head. "I don't know. That servant called me outside the room."

Hearing this, Michael frowned and looked at Summer as if he was about to say something. Leonardo, who was standing besides, walked forward and stood in front of Summer. With a cold expression, he said, "Are you suspecting that Summer pushed Grandpa down?"

Michael raised his head and looked at Michael, "Since something like this happened to Mr. Charlie at home, of course we need to question all the people concerning this matter."

Leonardo sneered disapprovingly. "Everyone can tell that Grandpa likes Summer very much. What reason does she have to do such a thing to Grandpa?"

"Of course she has a reason to do such a thing!"

They heard Alisa's voice suddenly.

Everyone turned around and saw Alisa, Adams come over in a hurry.

They got the news that Charlie had fallen downstairs later and then came over.

"Alisa, do you know what you're talking about?" Michael scolded Alisa sternly.

"Of course I know what I'm talking about!"

As Alisa said that, she turned to look at Summer and sneered. "Summer, you held a grudge against Grandpa for sending other women to Leonardo, so you attacked him today, right?" Summer's expression changed slightly as she looked at Alisa in disbelief. "I didn't."

"No?" Alisa smiled. "You are the only one who is not from the Emersons in the old house. Who else could it be other than you? Who else would attack an old man? You said you didn't do it. Does Leonardo believe you?"

Hearing this, Summer's heart tightened.

Based on her intuition, she felt that Leonardo would believe her.

However, that was only her intuition.

She couldn't help but turn to look at Leonardo.

Leonardo slowly pulled his hand out of her hand. His black eyes stared at her. "Do you really hate Grandpa for that?"

Summer was stunned.

Was Leonardo suspecting her?

He did not say that he believed her directly, but questioned her.

Summer felt cold all of a sudden and got extremely disappointed.

She shook her head as before and denied. "I didn't."

Leonardo only glanced at her and looked away. He continued to ask coldly, "Do you have an alibi? Was there anyone else near there at that time?"

Summer took a step back and looked at Leonardo in disbelief. "Leonardo, what do you mean? Now that you have determined that I am suspected of attacking Grandpa and you start interrogating me?" "Answer my question," Leonardo said emotionlessly.

Summer said loudly, "I won't answer you!"

"I didn't attack Grandpa, why should I be interrogated!"

If the person asking her these questions was Michael, Summer would not have resisted so much.

She did not expect that Leonardo would suspect her.

Michael stood out and patted Leonardo on the shoulder. "Leonardo, don't be like that. Summer is still pregnant. Charlie is still in the operating room and nobody knows what happened. Everyone can be suspected, but Summer is your wife. You shouldn't suspect her like this."

Michael's words sounded very reasonable at first, but she felt that something was wrong after thinking about it.

It was Michael who asked who saw Charlie first, but now he stood out to be a peacemaker, saying that no one knew what had happened.

Alisa heard Michael's words and said with an unconvinced expression, "Michael, it definitely has something to do with this woman!"

"Alisa, don't speak so loudly. Mr. Charlie is still in the operating room. We'll deal with this matter after he has done surgery, but..."

Michael paused for a moment and looked around at the people present. Finally, he stared at Summer's face and said, "No one can leave here without my permission."‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒
