to look at Josiah and exclaimed, “Oh, I remember now! The celebrity named Shania Hamilton! She got arrested a while back for assaulting someone with a knife. She was aiming for me, but Nate shielded me from the attack. We then called the police and had her arrested.”“Oh, right, I remember that incident! You told me she hated you because Xavier had her blacklisted, right?” Josiah asked with a frown.“Yeah.” Winnie nodded. “That’s exactly what happened. Well, technically, she wasn’t just aiming for me. She was also going for Xavier.”“That explains everything, then. Stuart wants Xavier dead, but he doesn’t want to get his hands dirty, so he gets someone else to help him do it. Since Shania happens to have a motive for killing you two, she’s the perfect tool for the task,” Josiah said.Winnie let out a huge sigh. “Yeah, that’s probably the case. This reminds me, Granny asked me about Shania’s motives when we were done giving our statements at the police station. She told me that she asked the police officers about Shania’s motives, but they didn’t tell her anything. Had I not told my granny the truth, she wouldn’t have figured it out even if she had been present at the scene. Stuart somehow managed to find out about it and is using Shania to get at Xavier. How did he find out, though? Could it be that Granny provided him with that information? I was wondering if Granny had been tricked into helping Stuart out, but… Now that I think about it, there might be more to Granny than meets the eye. I feel like Granny knew exactly what she was doing all along. In fact, she might’ve been the one who orchestrated some of that stuff. Why would she do that, Josiah? The Granny I know would never do such a thing! She would never!”Winnie ended up crying after saying that last sentence.Josiah had never seen her this upset before, and it pained him deeply to hear her sob. He instinctively slowed the car down and asked, “How about I send you home instead? You could get some rest while I head over to see Old Mr. Fairchild.”Winnie massaged her aching forehead and replied after a brief pause, “It’s fine. I don’t feel like resting anyway.”She then pulled out her phone and called Mary, who was in charge of looking after Jacinta.“Mary, how is my granny doing? Is she all right?” Winnie asked the moment the call got through.Mary sounded a little worried as she said, “Same old. She still won’t eat, drink, or speak to anyone. Mrs. Fairchild, should we send her to a hospital?”“Not yet. We’ll discuss this further when I get back. For now, just try your best to talk her into eating. Remember, do not let her contact anyone other than me,” Winnie replied with a worried frown.“I understand. I don’t think Mdm. Sumner
