Chapter 235 What on Earth Happened?
“Mrs. Wickam?” Rose sounded a little tired. “It’s late. Is anything the matter?”
“My in-law…” Monica took a deep breath, then blurted out guiltily. “I feel sorry for you!”
Rose deliberately paused for a moment, as if she was taking time to regain herself. But before she
could say anything, Monica continued, “I called Linda profusely just now, but she did not answer. When
my call was finally connected, a man answered it. He said that a group of hooligans had fenced Linda
in. He saved her, and they are now on the way to Three Hills Hospital. I… I…”
“Linda is in trouble?” Rose sounded extremely distressed!
“They are arriving at the hospital in about ten minutes. Let’s meet there and talk further!”
“Alright!” Rose hung up the call and glanced at Norman, who was beside her. She regained her

Norman frowned slightly. He looked a little worried. “Are you sure that this will work?”
“Of course!” She scoffed at Norman when she saw the worried look on his face. “Gareth had never
liked our daughter from the start. We can only make him stay by her side with guilt. Look how effective
it is! As long as he feels guilty for her once more, our Linda will be able to be his bride!”
Deep down, Norman felt that it was wrong for them to do so. But he agreed with his wife. There
seemed to be no other way. So both of them did not hesitate any longer. They got dressed and went
out.
Monica was the first to arrive. When she called Linda’s phone, the man answered again. He told her
where they were at. Monica hurried over.
She was taken aback for a moment when she saw that handsome man. Then she hurriedly asked,
“How is she?”
The man cast a glance at Monica, then spoke calmly, “I don’t know for sure. We should wait for the
doctor to tell us about it.”
“Can you tell me what happened just now? About everything that you saw,” Monica spoke solemnly.
The man nodded, and told her the events that transpired earlier. Monica’s face turned pale as she
listened to his story. “Did you say that she was kicked in her left leg?”
“Yes.” the man nodded in response.
Monica looked even more flustered. The man did not ask her any questions. He merely said, “Well,
since you are here, I can now leave. This is her stuff.”
The man handed Linda’s bag over to Monica as soon as he finished speaking. Then, he left without
looking back.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMonica paced back and forth outside as she waited anxiously.
But the door of the operation room was still closed. No one came out of it even after Monica glanced at
it several times.
Not long later, Rose and Norman dashed in. Rose shouted anxiously, “Mrs. Wickam!”
Monica turned around and spoke guiltily, “Oh, Rose. It is all my fault!”
Her voice trembled. She was really unnerved by what happened today. She was the one who gave
Linda permission. She dared not tell Rose about this.
After all, women were more likely to be misjudged if found in the company of a man late at night. The
Benett family was not just a simple family too. Monica was sure to feel guilty.
Rose’s face was as pale as a sheet. “What… What happened?”
She had no intention of blaming anyone, but the anxious look in her eyes was clear as crystal. Monica
could only take a deep sigh and tell Rose what she had learned just now.
“Left… Left leg…” Rose’s face went green. She shivered, and collapsed on the ground!
