Chapter 41 Why Should I Harm Him?
Hanging up the phone without further delay, Tessa immediately interrupted the training and apologized to Trevor, “Trevor, I have an urgent matter, so I have to head off first!”
Instead of blaming her, he advised worriedly, “Tessa, remember to be careful on the road!”
Tessa strode out of the room and went downstairs to hail a cab to head to the hospital. After getting into the car, her right eyelid suddenly jumped with fury, which suddenly left her with a bad premonition.
…
Nicholas’ gaze was thoughtful. When he heard the anxious tone from the other side, he didn’t feel like she was faking it, but he didn’t immediately believe in Tessa either. After all, this matter was related to Gregory’s personal safety, so he needed to wait and hear from her before he could understand the whole matter.
At this moment, two tall figures strode over from around the corner of the corridor. When Kieran and Tobias learned that Gregory was in the hospital, they came at once. Kieran was as nervous as a cat on hot bricks while Tobias had a serious expression.
Tobias then stepped forward to ask, “What happened to Greg? How is he now?”
When she saw her husband, a worried Stefania stepped forward almost immediately and answered, “Tobias, Greg had food poisoning! Although he’s all right now, I was scared to death!”
Knowing that Gregory was all right, Kieran and Tobias breathed a sigh of relief almost at the same time, but their faces quickly turned cold. “Who poisoned Gregory? How dare they!”
Kieran was also furious. “This person really has the guts, huh? How dare they treat Gregory like this! They’re seeking death!”
Gregory was the apple of the eye of the whole family and those who dared to attack him were really audacious!
10 minutes later, the cab stopped at the entrance of the hospital. Tessa ran into the hospital in a hurry, and when she arrived outside the emergency room, she found that all the members of the Sawyer Family had arrived.
She instantly realized the seriousness of the matter. After entering through the door, she didn’t care about anything else but hurriedly asked about the situation, “President Sawyer, how is Greg? What happened?”
No one responded.
The air seemed to be stagnant for a few minutes and everyone around looked at Tessa with unfriendly gazes. Stefania’s face was extremely cold, while Tobias was stern. Even Kieran, who was usually spirited, looked extremely unsympathetic.
As for Nicholas, he looked gloomy and said nothing, while Roselle’s gaze had a few shades of gloating in it.
Yana couldn’t wait to see Tessa being ripped apart, so she sneered, “What do you mean? I think we should ask you this, Miss Reinhart.”
Startled for a moment, Tessa then frowned before she asked, “What do you mean?”
A sarcastic Yana answered, “How dare you ask us! The doctor found some kind of drug laced in the juice that Gregory drank in the afternoon, which caused Greg to have food poisoning and was sent here for gastric lavage.”
“What?” Tessa’s eyebrows twitched in disbelief. How could that little boy be…
Snorting, Yana gradually looked derisive. “Miss Reinhart, you don’t have to pretend to be innocent. Other than Andrew and my daughter, you are the only one who has touched this glass of juice. You first tried to obtain Greg’s affection, and then drugged him with sinister intentions… You’re so despicable! Say, what’s your purpose in doing this? Or, did someone else send you here?”
Tessa’s face suddenly sank. How could they be suspicious of me? It’s completely bizarre and incomprehensible!
With a firm expression, she responded strongly, “Mrs. Gingham, what evidence do you have to slander me with such words? Greg and I have no grievances or enmity with each other, so why should I harm him?”
Almost immediately after that, she looked anxiously at Nicholas and members of the Sawyer Family. Then, she said resolutely, “President Sawyer, Mrs. Sawyer, Old Master Sawyer, I promise that I had only given Greg lessons today, and I did not know about anything else! As for that glass of juice…”
Looking directly at Roselle, Tessa said curtly, “If I remember correctly, Miss Gingham, you are the one who handed the glass of juice to Greg. Miss Gingham, you’ll admit to it, right?”
