A loud scream turned the voice-activated lights on, and the small staircase lit up instantly. Sophia took two steps forward and saw a person lying in a pool of blood on the stairwell one floor beneath her. Isn’t that Irene Weber?!

“Oh, my God!” she exclaimed in fright. Then, she ran to call for help. Fortunately, they were in a hospital. So, help arrived quickly, and Irene was placed in a hospital ward in a matter of minutes.

As the first person to discover Irene, Sophia hurriedly followed and waited outside the emergency room with her assistant. Within a short time, many people arrived, including Irene’s assistant, staff from the agency, leaders, members of the Fletcher Family, as well as a large number of reporters drawn by the possibility of a scoop…

“Chica!” When Michael learned of the news, he frantically ran over. Upon his arrival, he saw Sophia standing in front of the operation room with a bag of ice held up to her swollen face. She was being interviewed by a group of reporters surrounding her. Meanwhile, the security guards of the hospital and Sophia’s bodyguards were trying to chase away the reporters. However, their efforts seemed to be in vain as the reporters flooded into the room. Countless microphones, phones, and recording devices were practically hitting against Sophia’s face.

“Miss Edwards, did you push Irene Weber down the stairs?”

“If you didn’t, why were you the first person to discover her after she fell down the stairs?”

“Are you jealous of her because she was Taylor Murray’s first love?”

Sophia said nothing. Putting on her mask and covering her face, Hale and Gemma escorted her as they pushed through the crowd to leave.

Michael’s face turned dark at the sight before him. When somebody came to visit Sophia just now, he had taken the opportunity to run some errands. To his shock, he returned only to learn that Sophia had pushed Irene down the stairs! Moreover, he heard about it on the breaking news! Although Sophia was jealous of Irene, who was his ex-girlfriend, she was not stupid enough to push Irene down the stairs.

Upon noticing Michael’s arrival, the massive horde of reporters rushed toward him, shifting their attention to him instead. Hence, a large number of reports surrounded him suddenly.
