"Well, I am home now. I strolled outside for a while, just back. What's wrong?"
Listening to her leisurely and calm tone, Cathy put her heart down slightly, and restored calm,"Oh, nothing. I just want to ask about Mila?"
"She just ate something and fell asleep, but I guess she woke up without seeing you. She may feel uneasy and dare not cry or laugh. My heart aches with pity for her."
Mrs. Lawson said that and Cathy was immediately worried. But now she could not go back, frowning and thinking a while, "Then she wake up this time... You call me and I'll talk to her."
"Oh, OK. Now do your own works."
Cathy agreed, thinking of the matter, and added, "I see on the Internet that there is rain in Chicago this afternoon. Don't go out today."
"Oh, I see. Don't forget to take your umbrella, too." Her mother didn't know that she was coming to San Francisco today and almost had a car accident. Otherwise she would be worried.
Cathy said a few more words before hanging up.
Rory had come to her and said, "Don't worry too much for the time being. I'll find out."
Cathy looked cool, turned her head and looked elsewhere. She said with no emotion, "This is a matter for the police. I will cooperate with the police. Don't bother you. I will tell Tyrone later and let you go back."
It was her family affairs. She would blame herself, if anyone around her injured. She didn't have enough money to apologize. Although she acted a little inhumane, she had to do it.
Rory looked at her and stopped talking.
After waiting for a while, the police car arrived. After several traffic policemen got off to collect evidence, they went back to the police station together.
Through the monitoring, Cathy was convinced that it was not an accident. The car that popped up suddenly went straight to her, but unfortunately, the face behind the windshield could not be seen at all. He wore not only a hat but also a mask.
"Miss Lawson, we will investigate about what you said and keep in touch with you at any time."
