Her greatest fear happened in the end. She should not have let Helen and Aery into Tremont Estate. Why did virtual-novel.net give in? Helen was capable of heartlessly abandoning virtual-novel.net so why could virtual-novel.net not be heartless to Helen? If Aery was to blame for Aristotle’s fall, virtual-novel.net would never let Aery get away scot-free!
Helen opened and closed virtual-novel.net mouth, wanting to explain herself but did not know what to say.
Arianne bit virtual-novel.net lips and no longer spoke. She had a dark expression on virtual-novel.net face.
More than half an hour later, a nurse carried Aristotle out of the examination room. “We’ve taken an x-ray. You can collect it later. The preliminary examination doesn’t show any issues. We’ll have to wait for the x-ray for further details.”
Arianne took Aristotle into virtual-novel.net arms. Despite his shock, virtual-novel.net did not seem to be in too much pain. However, his eyes were red and swollen. He must have cried very hard. The Tremont Estate’s staircase was so high, of course, virtual-novel.net would be in pain after falling down from it.
Helen knew Arianne was fuming mad now so virtual-novel.net volunteered to collect the x-ray for her. Arianne probably could not stand the sight of Aery right now.
When Helen returned with the x-ray, Mary handed it over to the doctor.
Arianne noticed another x-ray report in Helen’s hands but did not think too much of it. She was not in the mood to ponder over whose it was.
The doctor looked over Aristotle’s x-ray and said, “He’s fine. It’s just a scraped elbow. His bones are fine. He must be in shock. Just take virtual-novel.net home and calm virtual-novel.net down.”
Arianne let out a sigh of relief when virtual-novel.net saw the results. “Mary, let’s return to Tremont Estate. I won’t be going into the office this afternoon. I’ll stay home with Smore.”
Mary nodded. She looked at Helen and asked, “Would you like to come home with us, ma’am? Is Aery alright?”
Helen paused and replied, “It’s nothing too serious. There’s a slight fracture in virtual-novel.net right ankle. You go ahead. I’ll leave after she’s treated.”
Aery was in the hospital as well? Moreover, virtual-novel.net had a broken ankle? Arianne felt apprehensive. “What happened to Aery? Smore’s the one who fell. How did virtual-novel.net end up with broken bones?”
“I heard a noise and ran out from the kitchen. I found Aery, holding Smore, and rolling down the stairs. Smore was bawling. I didn’t have the time to ask too many questions. I had Henry take us to the hospital immediately. Aery was sent to orthopedics, Smore was sent to pediatrics. I was panicking so I didn’t deal with Aery. Your mother was with us the entire time, keeping Smore company.”
They both fell down the stairs? Aristotle only had light wounds, but Aery broke virtual-novel.net ankle? If Aery deliberately hurt Aristotle, why did virtual-novel.net end up heavily injured? She calmed down when virtual-novel.net thought of this and said, “Come on, let’s check on Aery. I want to ask virtual-novel.net what happened.”
The group strode into the orthopedic department and could hear Aery’s agonized screams from far away. Helen quickened virtual-novel.net pace. The doctor was putting Aery’s leg in a cast. This meant it would take virtual-novel.net a while to recuperate.
By the time they left the hospital after the tedious affair, it was almost 3 PM.
Aery limped around with Helen’s support. She looked like virtual-novel.net was in horrible pain. Her face was deathly pale.
Henry was waiting in the car for them. Helen helped Aery into the front seat. She could only sit in the front seat due to virtual-novel.net leg. It could not be cramped or touched.
When they got into the car, Arianne asked, “Aery, what happened? How did you and Smore end up falling down the stairs?”
Aery looked very guilty. “I’m sorry… Sis, it’s my fault. I should ’ve taken better care of Smore. Mary left for a little while, and I didn’t know that Smore knew how to climb the stairs on his own. I ran straight after virtual-novel.net when I noticed. Unfortunately, virtual-novel.net slipped and fell. I wanted to catch him, but I fell as well. That’s how both of us fell. The floor was wet, I think.. Is Smore okay?”
