After hanging up, Ste said to Lauretta, "Lauretta, Jonathan was in a car ident. Do you want toe with me to check on him?"
Lauretta was stunned.
"A car ident? Why would Jonathan get into a car ident?"
"I don''t know the details," Ste replied. "We''ll have to go and see."
Lauretta was silent for a few seconds before saying, "I''ll go with you."
When they arrived at the hospital, a crowd had already gathered outside the operating room.
Skyler, Israel Williams, Coleman, and Aurora were there, along with Violet Yancey, who lookedpletely unconcerned.
Seeing Ste, Violet finally cracked a smile and greeted her.
"Ms. Cameron, where''s that assistant of yours, Abby?"
Violet and Abby were both blunt and straightforward, so they had foundmon ground and gotten along well.
"Abby has some things to take care of," Ste said. "It''ll probably be a while before she cane back."
Recently, something hade up with Abby''s family. After picking Ste up from the airport, she had gone back home to handle it.
Since then, they had barely been in contact.
Abby still didn''t know that Foreman had held her captive for a week.
Before returning to Solmaris, Ste had only contacted Abby to ask if she wanted toe back with her.
Abby had told her she needed more time and probably couldn''t return just yet.
Violet nodded, looking disappointed.
She had a lot of new gossip to share with Abby.
Skyler''s gaze fell on Lauretta, who had arrived with Ste.
He offered a kind smile. "Lauretta, you came too."
"Yes," Lauretta said. "I was with Star. When we heard Mr. Williams was in an
ident, we came to see how he was."
At this, Lauretta looked at Skyler.
"Mr. Williams, how is he now?"
Skyler''s face clouded over with worry.
"He''s in surgery right now. The situation is... not good."
"Mr. Williams, what do you mean by ''not good"?" Lauretta asked.
Coleman, standing nearby, answered calmly, "He''s not out of the woods yet."
Ste and Lauretta exchanged a look.
If his life was still in danger, the situation was clearly very serious.
Just then, Aurora asked, "Father, how did Jonathan get into a car ident? Have they found out the cause?"
"The driver who caused it has been、
detained, Skyler said. "He was driving a heavy truck, drunk, exhausted.
An enigmatic smile yed on
Aurora''s tips. "For so many years et
nothing major has happened to the Williams family. But this past year, it''s been one problem after another."
Coleman remained silent, but Israel couldn''t help but shout, "Exactly! f you want to know who''s pulling the strings, just look at who benefits the most in the end. Isn''t it obvious?"
Skyler also looked at Ste. He didn''t say anything, but his eyes were filled with suspicion.
From the current situation, Ste was the prime suspect.
If something happened to Jonathan, the bnce of power within The Williams Group would be shattered.
With the cards Ste held, not even Coleman, Israel, and Aurorabined could stand against her.
Ste would be the biggest beneficiary.
Skyler asked hesitantly, "Star, did you..."
He trailed off, his voice stopping midway.
Even if Ste was behind this, they needed concrete evidence.
She was no longer the same Ste they could easily sling mud at and force into a confession.
Ste, of course, knew what Skyler wanted to ask. She denied it outright.
