Chapter 573
Yvonne started screaming. Soon, she alerted everyone in the house.
However, Madeline was surprised by the word Yvonne had yelled out just now.
Abuse?
Karen and Winston arrived at the scene shortly after.
When they saw the bruises and wounds on the old master’s arm, their eyes widened.
“W-What happened?” Winston questioned. Then, he rushed forward to inspect the old master’s condition.
Karen walked over with worry on her face as well. When she got over, she pushed Madeline away. “Oh, Old Master, what happened to you? Did you fall from the bed?”
“Aunty Karen, they don’t look like they’re from a fall. It’s obvious that someone is deliberately abusing Grandpa!” Yvonne purposely fanned the flames to Madeline. “Madeline, you’re the one who’s been taking care of Grandpa after he got here. Were the wounds on Grandpa…’
“Watch your mouth.” Jeremy’s cold voice came from outside the room.
Yvonne quivered reflexively. She lifted her head timidly and saw Jeremy’s cold side profile. She did not dare to say anything anymore.
Jeremy walked next to Madeline, his icy gaze softening. “What happened? What happened to Grandpa?”
Before Madeline could say anything, Karen ran over angrily and accused Madeline. “Madeline, you’re too cruel! You look fragile on the surface, but you have such a dark heart! You paralyzed the old master and now you’re doing such heinous things!”
Jeremy’s eyes went cold. “How many times do I have to tell you that Linnie has nothing to do with Grandpa getting poisoned?”
“If she’s not related to that, what about this?” Winston charged over while fuming. He pointed at the old master’s wounds with trembling fingers. “Jeremy, go look at your grandpa’s wounds. Do you think a human is capable of doing this?”
