Chapter 1105

Chapter 1105“Out of immediate danger? Does that mean Mrs. Wilson has been in a critical condition?” Natalie balled
up her fists. “Shane, what exactly happened to her? Has she fallen sick or something?”
Shane's expression hardened, and his gaze was as cold as ice. “She was pushed down the stairs and
was severely injured. That's why she's in the hospital now.”
“What?” Natalie's eyes widened. “How did it happen?”
“Someone broke into the Thompson villa last night and rummaged around our bedroom and study,
looking for something but to no avail. The man went downstairs and bumped into Mrs. Wilson as she
was going upstairs, and he pushed her down. Fortunately, she had only climbed up a few steps, or else
she would have been killed given her old age,” Shane answered.
The woman bit her lip. “How severe are her injuries?”
“Her back was hurt, and she hit her head. Other than that, she's fine. The man was in a hurry to make
a run for it, so he did not murder Mrs. Wilson. Fortunately, shortly after she was knocked out, the
security guard saw that the door was open, so he came in to check if everything was fine. He found
Mrs. Wilson unconscious and sent her to the hospital. Since her phone was not with her, the security
guard could not get in touch with me, so he called the company and the manager contacted me.”
“I see...” Knowing that Mrs. Wilson was not gravely injured, she heaved a sigh of relief.
The two children felt relieved as well.
“Was it Sean's man?” she asked while looking at the man.
His lips were pressed into a hard line. “Yes. After Mrs. Wilson woke up, the manager sent people to the
Thompson villa to look into the matter and check if the man had stolen anything. No valuables weremissing, but a lot of Wells Properties' information had been taken away. I guess Sean had sent
someone to search for the share transfer agreement of Wells Properties.”
Since he was out of the country, Sean had seized this golden opportunity to break into the villa.
“He's quite relentless.” Natalie snickered.
“I need to go back,” Shane said.
The woman nodded in agreement. “Sure. Please check on Mrs. Wilson.”
“I will.” He pulled her into a hug. “I'll be back soon.”
Resting her chin on his shoulder, she mumbled gently, “Okay, I'll wait for you.”
That very night, Shane left.
This time, he had asked Silas to stay instead of bringing him along.

Natalie burst into fits of giggles at her reaction.
Soon, Silas came into the villa and interrupted the three women's chitter-chatter. “Madam, the police
have replied.”
Natalie quickly turned to look at him. “What did they say?”
“They've done Annette's record and discovered that many who took part in the same competition as
her previously had allergic reactions as well. The police contacted those designers and found they had
never eaten or touched any allergens. Hence, the police suspect that Annette had used the same
powder against them.”“Hah! She's actually a repeat offender,” Lina scoffed. “Well, she wouldn't have been so calm if that had
been her first time doing it. She must have done it before, but she covered it up so perfectly that no one
ever caught her.”
“Did those designers suffer from other symptoms?” Natalie turned to glance at Silas.
The latter nodded. “Yes, one of them had a respiratory infection. He made it to the hospital in time, but
his limbs became so stiff that he could no longer draw any design drafts and make clothes.”
“What? So his career is ruined?” Lina was taken aback.
Silas sighed. “Yes.”
“Damn Annette! She's such a b*tch!” Lina's face reddened in rage.
Natalie patted her hand to calm her down before turning to look at Silas. “Did Annette plead guilty to
these offenses?”
“Not yet. I rushed over to inform you right after the police found out about it just now. However, there's
solid evidence, so there's no way she can deny it. She's doomed.”
