Translator: 549690339
Lily Gray was standing at the staircase on the second floor of the Gray family villa, when Zara Lucas suddenly pushed her from behind, causing Lily to tumble down the stairs.
With a loud “bang,” the previously hiding butler and several servants were startled by the noise.
“Mis…Miss…”
“Ah, murder! Murder! Call the police—call an ambulance—”

When Lily Gray regained consciousness, she found herself lying in the Advanced Care Unit. Updated from n0v𝒆lbIn.(c)o/m
There was no one beside her bed, but there was some commotion outside the door. Struggling, she reached out and rang the electric bell, and in a short while, the door to her ward was opened.
“Miss, how are you feeling… do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?” Even though the butler had been negligent, at the end of the day, she was still living on the Gray family’s salary. When Lily Gray was in trouble, she still expressed concern.
“I’m fine… just a bit of pain in my leg.” Lily Gray frowned, and tentatively moved her body. Fortunately, besides her right arm and left leg hurting a bit, the other parts didn’t seem to suffer much damage.
In reality, she had never trusted the Lucas family’s mother and daughter duo.
When she intentionally exposed her back to them, she already had her guard up.
However, she didn’t expect that the Lucas family’s mother and daughter would really be so foolish – biting at the bait she deliberately left out.
After the doctor completed Lily Gray’s check-up, he left the ward after warning her some precautions.
Lily Gray’s diagnostic report clearly stated that soft tissue injuries were present in her arm and thigh, and she also had a minor concussion. At Lily Gray’s request, these injury reports would be preserved as evidence that the Lucas family had abused her.
“What’s all the commotion outside about?” Lily Gray, who was now reclining on her hospital bed, asked the butler.
“It’s the reporters… they…they somehow heard about what happened, so they swarmed over here.” The Lucas family was a respected and influential family, and Austin Lucas had made it to the entertainment headlines a few times. So when the reporters heard that Mrs. Lucas was hospitalized, they quickly smelled the hint of a juicy gossip.
“Also… also…” The butler seemed to be having difficulty.
“Tell me, what else is there?”
“Also… the police.” The butler finally uttered, “But I didn’t know if you would want to see the police, Miss. After all, if this matter escalates it won’t be good for you… so…I managed to stop them for you temporarily.”
Heh, truly a servant who bullies their master. It seemed like if she didn’t ask, the butler wasn’t planning on telling her.
“Let them in.” She had no time to deal with this person now. She would deal with the mess of the Lucas family first.
“Ah… let, let who in?” The butler looked surprised, seemingly not believing what she had heard.
Lily Gray hooked her lip in a smile, “You were the one who said to ‘let them in.’ Do you mean we should let in the reporters?”
Brains were useful things. However, it appeared that the butler of the Gray family had grown comfortable after years of just going through the motions and had forgotten to bring her brain when she left the door.
The butler figured out that Lily Gray was displeased. She quickly bowed her head and left. In a short while, two police officers entered.
“Hello, Miss Gray, we are officers from the Prosperity Avenue Police Precinct. We received a report that you were pushed down the stairs at home this afternoon. We would like to ask you some questions with regards to this incident…”
About ten minutes later, the two officers left.
“Miss, are you really going to file a case? Those two, one is your mother-in-law and the other is your sister-in-law. If you sue them… ”
“You said it yourself, one is my mother-in-law and the other is my sister-in-law. But now they want to harm me. Do you think I should continue to stay in such a family? You’re right, I not only plan to sue them, but I also plan to divorce Austin Lucas!”
