Luna was shaking like a leaf, seeing the possible consequences in her mind. When she saw Rosalynn leave, she breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Rosalynn wasn't mad at her or the Scott family. It's not that the Scott family was scared of the Silverman Group or the Jared Group, but if a conflict did arise, it would likely end in a lose-lose situation.
Outside the hospital room, Felix and the rest were covered in grime and looked exhausted. Molly was still in her drenched clothes. Rosalynn said coldly, "What happened today was all Ivy's own doing. You've done your part."
Felix glanced at Molly subconsciously. But Molly, knowing fully well about Ivy's plan to sneak out, didn't tell anyone and instead went along with her.
Molly hung her head, apologizing to Rosalynn, "I'm sorry, you can drive me out." For the first time, she cried in front of Rosalynn. Rosalynn squatted down, gently stroking Molly's cheek, and said, "You're Ivy's friend. Friends don't betray each other. You didn't do anything wrong. Plus, if it weren't for you, Ivy might not be alive right now."
Molly lifted her head to look at Rosalynn, tears swirling in her eyes. Rosalynn gave a bitter laugh, "I'm really angry right now, but I don't know who to blame." She noticed some cuts on Molly's arm and a scrape on her hand, and told Felix to take her to get treated.
Rosalynn pushed the hospital room door open and walked in. Inside were Jaime, Wayne, Cory, and Larkin. Rosalynn told Erica and Larkin to go rest, and they agreed. Before Larkin left, he comforted Rosalynn that Ivy was just a little shaken up, but she was fine.
When they left, only the family remained in the room. Jaime chuckled, "Lynn, luckily Ivy is quite a lucky girl, she didn't get hurt!" Rosalynn called Ivy over. Ivy looked at Wayne with teary eyes, then left her father's hug.
"Mommy, I'm sorry," Ivy sobbed. Rosalynn wiped away her tears, "You just wanted to make Cain's birthday wish come true today, right?" Ivy nodded.
"Ivy, do you know who pushed you into the river today?" Rosalynn asked.
Ivy shook her head slightly.
"It was Mrs. Baldie's sister."
Ivy was shocked.
"She is Mrs. Baldie's half-sister. She and her mother have always been mean to Mrs. Baldie. Now their family is facing their just desserts for their evil deeds. Out of jealousy and resentment, she started to think about revenge."
Ivy was always a clever girl.
Once Rosalynn explained, Ivy immediately covered her mouth in horror, "The thing she did today, was it aimed at Cain and Carney?"
"Regardless of who she was targeting, have you thought about what would happen if they were the ones pushed into the river?" Rosalynn asked seriously.
