Inside an intensive care unit, Finnegan saw Quiana, who was covered in blood and unconscious due to severe injuries. 

Her body was covered in bruises, her head had been struck, and a clump of hair had been yanked out, revealing the scalp beneath. 

Her face was marred by over a dozen scratch marks, a sight too gruesome to bear. 

“Finnegan, here’s the thing. Mrs. Larkin-” 

Upon hearing the news, Romona, who had specifically come to handle this matter, was about to explain, but Finnegan, with a cold face, interrupted her, “I don’t want to know the cause right now. Everyone, get out!” 

He was going to treat Quiana. 

Romona furrowed her brows. 

Seeing that Finnegan’s expression was not good, she could only nod. “Let’s go out first.” 

After she led the people out, Finnegan suppressed his emotions and treated Quiana. 

Alexander who was assisting on the side said, “Your mother has sustained a hematoma in her head, a moderate concussion, and there are indications of internal bleeding within the abdominal cavity. She also has multiple fractures throughout her body. The situation is not very optimistic.” 

“No worries. Just cooperate with me and she’ll be fine!” 

Romona felt somewhat frustrated after leaving the intensive care unit. 

“What are the findings?” she asked her colleague. 

Her colleague replied, “There are no surveillance cameras there, so we can only reconstruct what happened through on-site investigation and eyewitness testimonies. At the moment of the incident, the injured individual was maneuvering her electric bike after a grocery run, coinciding with the deceased’s attempt to cross the street. The suddenness of the situation left neither party with sufficient time to react, leading to the unfortunate collision. The deceased, already in his seventies, fell to the ground immediately after the collision. A pair of scissors from the vegetable basket he was carrying pierced his waist, causing severe bleeding. By the time the medical staff arrived at the scene, there were no signs of life. It was an accidental death caused by a common traffic accident! But the family members were somewhat irrational. They beat up the injured individual on the spot, leaving her seriously injured!” 

Romona furrowed her beautiful brows. “What’s the current attitude of the deceased’s family?” 

Her colleague gave a wry smile. “The deceased’s family is very adamant. They said they’re willing to take responsibility for injuring someone. But they insist that the person who injured their elder, resulting in his death, must also take responsibility. They don’t need compensation, but they demand that person must go to jail!”

“Do they mean they’re unwilling to settle this peacefully?” 

“Indeed, they are unanimous in their opinion: The injured party should go to jail!” 

Romona was a little annoyed. “It looks like this issue won’t be easy to resolve.” 

She had intended to help Finnegan resolve this matter peacefully. 

If the family of the deceased did not want to do so, then there was nothing that could be done. 

Her colleague asked, “Captain Quickwood, what do we do now?”

Romona thoughtfully said, “Since they’re being so stubborn, let’s handle this by the book. Take those who were involved in the assault back to the police station first. As for the rest, we’ll deal with them after Finnegan has finished treating his mother!” 

“Okay,” 

Once her colleague left, Romona pinched the bridge of her nose. She was a bit tired after a night without rest. “His sister got into trouble last night, and his mother got into one this morning. Finnegart is really unlucky these days.” 

Right then, her phone rang. 

She answered the phone. “Hello?” 

After a while, Romona frowned. “A teacher from Jadeborough High School forced a student to jump off a building, and when the parents found out, they rushed to the school and injured the person, vowing to pursue the matter to the end? Wait… what’s the teacher’s name? Desmond Larkin?” 

Romona’s red lips twitched. 

“Finnegan, what is going on with you lately? Why is your whole family in trouble?” 

Romona then instructed over the phone, “Get the student’s parents under control first, then bring the student and Desmond to the hospital. We can’t afford any mishaps.” 

After hanging up the phone, Romona cast a complicated glance at the intensive care unit. She called over two colleagues, “Stay here and let me know if Finnegan comes out.” 

Then, Romona turned around and left, arriving at the entrance of the emergency building. 

It wasn’t long before two ambulances came rushing in. 

Two stretchers were carried down, on one of which lay a boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old, who was completely unconscious. 

On the other lay Desmond, his head bleeding profusely. 

After taking a glance, Romona knew she couldn’t ask anything now. “Get him treated first.” 

She turned to her colleague. “What on earth is going on? How could a teacher drive a student to jump off building?”

“You can’t really blame the teacher. It’s the student who went too far. 

The students of Jadeborough High School had all participated in a group morning run.

However, that student had been hiding in the classroom playing with his phone instead of going for the morning run. 

While Desmond was conducting a class check, he chanced upon it. He seized the student’s phone and directed him to participate in the morning run. 

In an unexpected turn of events, the student was not merely resistant, but he even escalated the situation by climbing up the window and threatening Desmond to return his phone. 

And then, quite carelessly, he fell from the third floor. 

Desmond was thus labeled as the teacher who drove students to jump off buildings. 

Upon understanding the situation, Romona gave a bitter smile. “This issue isn’t easy to resolve either.” 

Desmond’s actions were in line with his responsibilities as a teacher, and there was inherently nothing wrong with it. 

However, in this era, if something happened to a student, regardless of whether the teacher was right or wrong, their career was destined to come to an end, and they would have to bear the responsibility. 

Her colleague nodded. “Indeed, it’s a tough situation. The student’s parents are adamant that this teacher forced their son to jump off the building. They’re demanding the school and the Department of Education to dismiss him, and they even want him thrown in jail.” 

Romona said, “I understand. You go ahead with your work. Let me know if there are any updates.” 

Once her colleagues had left, Romona glanced at the time, then promptly drove away from the hospital.
