Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 366

Initially, he thought that one of the residents in the building had an accident, but he didn’t expect that the person he would see was Sonia. He couldn’t be bothered to ask who Douglas was, and neither was he curious as to why he was addressing her as his aunt. He immediately rushed in to check Sonia’s condition, and he realized things were bad after taking a look at her.

Not only was her wrist cut and there was a pool of fresh blood beside her, what was more serious was that there was a big bump on the back of her head!

Knowing that he shouldn’t wait a second longer, Charles picked her up from the floor. “Hey, kid, I’m bringing my darling to the hospital, and you’re coming with us!”

There were still many questions he had to ask this kid.

“Okay,” Douglas replied, bobbing his

head.

Holding Sonia in his arms, Charles dashed out of the stairwell and out of the neighborhood with Douglas trailing behind with all his might, running with his little legs.

In the car, Charles found the nearest hospital with the help of the navigation system and sent Sonia there. Ten minutes later, she was rushed into the emergency room.

Only then did the both of them breathe a sigh of relief and waited anxiously on the bench.

While waiting, Charles turned to Douglas. “Hey, kid, where’s your family and what’s your parents’ number? I’ll give them a call lest they worry about you.”

“My parents are in the military, and my uncle sent me to stay with Aunt Sonia,” Douglas replied.

Hearing him address Sonia as ‘Aunt Sonia’, Charles felt very uneasy, so he asked with a frown, “Why are you calling my darling your aunt? Who’s your uncle? He’s so thick-skinned!”

Could it be Toby Fuller? But I’ve not heard that he’s an uncle, he thought.

When Douglas heard Charles criticizing his own uncle, he pouted his lips. “My uncle is Zane Coleman!”

Stunned at first, Charles then cried out angrily, “What? Your uncle is that annoying guy, Zane?!” Damn, that annoying jerk actually sent his nephew to Sonia and even told him to address her as his aunt. Hmph, his motives are so obvious that everyone could tell! This is more than thick-skinned; he’s just purely shameless! “Give your uncle a call quickly and tell him to bring you home,” he said in a huff. “What the heck! Why didn’t he take care of his own nephew and let my darling do it instead?”

Swinging his little legs, Douglas said in a sorry voice, “I’m sorry, sir. My uncle is away on a business trip and not in Seafield.”

Charles knitted his brows. “What? He ran away?

“No, he didn’t! He’s just away on a business trip!” Douglas corrected.

Waving his hand in frustration, Charles said, “I don’t care why he went away, but from my point of view, he just ran away. Since he had run away, then I’ll settle this score with him when he returns. As for you...” He stared at Douglas for a few seconds. In the end, he sighed in defeat. “Forget it. What can I possibly do to a little guy like you? Alright, Little Doug. Tell me how my darling got hurt,” he said with a serious expression.

Like a miniature adult, the expression on Douglas’ face turned equally serious. “I don’t know, either. Aunt Sophia said that she was going out to buy salt, but she didn’t come back after a long while. So, I went downstairs to look for her and gave her a call. Then, I discovered that her cell phone was ringing in the stairwell. When I went over to take a look, she was already in that state.”

Charles’ fists tightened after he heard it. “Looks like I need to make a trip to Bayside Residence and check the surveillance tapes.”

Sonia had been attacked on her head, resulting in such a huge bump, and together with her cut wrist, it all obviously showed that someone had hurt her with intent. Still, it couldn’t be considered as murder.

If murder was the objective, Sonia’s wrist wouldn’t have been cut that way. He had seen the cut on her wrist: It was circular in size with a very small surface—about the size of a peanut—and it wasn’t deep, either.

Therefore, if someone wanted to murder her by cutting her wrist, the cut would have been a deep, straight line. Only then could the cut reach the artery and cause profuse bleeding. So, the person who injured Sonia was definitely not after her life. Otherwise, why wouldn’t they cut her artery directly?

In addition, there was only one hit to her head. If murder was the intent, there would have been more hits on the head even without cutting the wrists as it would only be possible to kill someone with a few more strikes to the head, but the perpetrator didn’t do that.

Besides, Sonia’s clothes were neat, and she didn’t look like she had been violated. So, what exactly was the motive of the perpetrator?

Regardless of what the motive was, he had to get to the bottom of it and find out who the person was so he could get payback.
