“Ah…”
The piercing scream echoed on the third floor.
Everyone looked over. When they saw the scene at the stairs, they gasped in fear.
1/5
Just a second before Grace was about to push Audrey down the stairs, Audrey turned around and dodged sideways.
Grace lost her balance and fell forward. She was about to fall down the stairs.
At the critical moment, Audrey grabbed Grace’s arm, and Grace kept the posture of rushing forward.
Grace looked at the stairs in front of her and felt dizzy. She wanted to stand firmly but couldn’t gain her footing. She could only hold on like that and might fall at any moment.
Audrey looked at her coldly and loosened one finger.
“Audrey, if you dare to let go, I will not let you go.” Although Grace was scared, she refused to give in and threatened loudly with a trembling voice.
“Really? That’s great,” Audrey said calmly, “Whether I let go or not, you have no intention of letting me go. In this case…”

With that, Audrey was about to let go

Grace was so frightened that her face turned pale. She screamed, “No, don’t. I was wrong. Audrey, don’t let go.”
“OK, answer me a question.”
Grace turned her head with difficulty, almost crying. “What’s your question?”
“Who asked you to cause trouble for me?” Grace did dislike Audrey but would not take the initiative to cause trouble for Audrey if they didn’t meet.
Audrey believed that someone had told Grace something.
“No one. I’m telling the truth.” When Grace felt Audrey was about to let go, she became nervous. “I’m no lying. I just wanted to teach you a lesson for Ava.”
Ava…
Audrey pressed her lips. She was not surprised by the answer, but she didn’t know why Ava did that.
Was it because of Theodore?
However, Ava knew that the one Theodore loved from the beginning to the end was her.
“Grace.”

A sudden exclamation made Audrey

to her senses. She
looked over and saw Percival and Theodore at the end of the
stairs.
When Grace saw them, she struggled hard and cried, “Theodore, help me! Ah…”
Bang!
Grace struggled so violently that Audrey couldn’t hold her firmly. She screamed and rolled down the stairs.
“Grace.” Percival was worried. He rushed forward and helped Grace up.
“It hurts. Percival, it hurts so much.” Grace felt as if all her bones were broken. She gasped in pain when she touched her face. “Percival, am I disfigured?”
Although she rolled down only a few steps, Grace fell forward, so her face got hit.
Her forehead was red and swollen, and her cheekbone area was bruised and oozing blood. She looked miserable.
Percival held her hand and said, “Let’s me see. Don’t worry. It’s OK.”
“I don’t want to be disfigured.” Tears streamed down Grace’s cheek. She shook off Percival’s hand and limped toward Theodore. “Theodore, it was Audrey who pushed me down. If

I’m disfigured, it’s all her fault.”

“That’s enough. Grace, you stop making trouble.” Percival knew Grace well, so he knew she was making trouble.
“Theodore, I am your sister. How can you be on the bitch’s side? Audrey let go, so I fell down. She did it on purpose.” Grace was angry and aggrieved. “Theodore, you saw it, didn’t you? If she didn’t let go suddenly, how could I fall down?”
Theodore was gloomy. He looked up at Audrey. She was calm as if what had happened had nothing to do with her. Theodore frowned.
“Audrey, don’t you want to explain?”
Audrey unclenched her fists several times and finally smiled with relief, “OK, I’ll explain.”
She walked down the stairs and toward Grace.
Grace felt panicky and stepped back. “What do you want to do? Stay away from me.”
“Grace, what are you afraid of?” Audrey was calm but
frightening. “Didn’t you say that I pushed you down the stairs on purpose?”
“I’m not afraid.” Grace’s heel hit the potted plant at the corner of the stairs. She lost her footing and was about to fall into the pot.
Audrey held her arm again to steady her.

Grace breathed a sigh of relief and Audrey suddenly let go.
led to stand firm, but
“Ah.”
With a bang, Grace fell into the pot and fell to the ground with the potted plant.
“Audrey…”
“I did it on purpose this time. Grace, if I wanted to let go just now, I wouldn’t wait for your brothers to show up, and there wouldn’t be just a scratch on your face.”
Audrey glanced at Grace coldly. Then, she looked at Theodore and said, “Mr. Ainsworth, are you satisfied with my explanation?“
