Chapter 487 It Was a Set-up
Anna regained consciousness after two days, but she couldn’t move around due to the fracture. She scowled as soon as she woke up, and her expression was displeased. “Why do I feel like I’ve been run over by a truck?” Anna mumbled.
Anna was born with a silver spoon as the eldest daughter of the Lowre Family, but she didn’t carry many responsibilities in her family at that time. Even after she married into the Gardner Family, she hadn’t suffered much.
However, every part of her body was hurting after she woke up from today’s sleep.
Hayden was waiting beside her bed the whole time. As he watched her regain consciousness, a joyful expression took over all the worries on his face. He reached out his hands and held her palm as he addressed, “Grandma.”
Anna lowered her gaze as her head turned in his direction and saw the boy. Warmth filled her expression as she greeted him, “Hayden, you’re here. But why are you injured?”
Seeing the bandages around his forehead, Anna scowled in concern.
Colton took her distressed look in mind as he stepped forward to get her attention. “Mom, don’t you remember that you were involved in an accident?”
His words refreshed her memory. I’ve experienced a car accident. No wonder it hurts.
“I remember it. A truck was speeding at us,” Anna answered slowly.
Colton sighed in relief to see she could remember what happened. “Yes, you broke your leg and hit your head hard in the accident. Nicky has done the surgery on you. Even if you’re fine now, it will hurt nevertheless.”
Anna let out a sigh as her son’s voice reached her. As she recalled something, she scanned around the room for Wendy, but her daughter was nowhere to be found, so she asked, “Where’s Wendy?”
He explained, “She has been crying since last night and ended up falling asleep as she was exhausted. I made her rest in the back room, but she’ll come to see you once she’s awake.”
He explained everything to his mother as he initiated an investigation right after she was injured in the accident.
Nicole was listening to their conversation at the side and didn’t expect to learn about the complicated things in between. She stepped forward and looked Colton in the eyes. “President Gardner, do you mean the truck driver did it on purpose?”
Colton lowered his gaze and he nodded, not bothering to hide his boiling anger. “We’ll know after we check the monitors of the road around that time.”
Nicole clenched her fists, but she felt the need to clear up the confusion, “President Gardner, who’s their target? Is it Mrs. Gardner or Hayden?”
Her eyes betrayed no emotions, and it was as if she was trying her best to suppress her anger.
If the culprits were coming for Hayden, Nicole would suspect Lydia and Queenie. However, she doubted Queenie would harm Anna as Queenie was marrying Colton soon. After all, if something bad happened to Anna, the marriage would be postponed for sure.

What a waste of reading! This could have been an excellent novel if it hadn't skipped chapters after 531 and then everything is garbled. Get your act together if you still want a reading audience!!!...
