Lizzie greeted him warmly while leaning on her crutches, "Thank you for taking care of my daughter here all night. I will definitely come to say thank you someday."

They got the news that their two daughters had an accident in the middle of the night yesterday, and rushed to the hospital as soon as possible. However, at that time, Sierra was already asleep against Rose Hill, and he did not let anyone disturb them.

Mrs. Josie and Annashe in a wheelchair also greeted him. Rose Hill nodded slightly, glanced at the girl in the wheelchair with very faint eyes, and turned to leave.

Anaxi sat there with a pale face, looking at the prompt that had just popped up from the system with dull eyes.

Rose Hill's favorability value is reduced by five.

She had never liked him in the first place, so this point would be deducted and turned into a negative number.

Why?

She rolled her eyes in panic, thinking about what had happened recently. After being pushed into the ward by Josie, she suddenly understood when she saw Sera's rosy little face on the bed.

Is it because she abandoned Sierra and ran away last night?

But in that situation, why couldn't she escape for her own survival? Isn't that a vampire who has done all kinds of bad things? Why would he care about such a thing with her?

Sierra looked at Anaxi staring at her, her expression changing, and asked curiously: "What's wrong with your face? Cramp?"

"No." Annahi curled her head.

Mrs. Josie put the fruit basket she brought on the bedside and said pitifully: "We were all crazy when we got the news that you were in the hospital last night."

Lizzie sat on the edge of the bed, apologetically, "Something happened to David's family, and I almost lost you."

Sierra smiled slightly, not feeling much about the fatherly love he showed, "Will you take me home later, Dad?"

"Well, Mr. Apu is still here to investigate last night's accident." Lizzie said with a stern face: "A murderer appeared in our town. Three people including a police officer were killed, and a road was destroyed. You and Anna Xi is the only witness."

Mrs. Josie peeled two apples and gave one to each of the two sisters.

Sierra has always admired her superficial skills.

She gnawed on the crispy apple and nodded, "There have been murders happening around me for two days in a row. He should investigate me."

She didn't want to recall what happened last night for the time being, and Lizzie's conversation also took a U-turn, "When will Mr. Rosehill plan to come and engage you?"

Anaxi choked on an apple in her throat, coughed and said, "Dad! Isn't it too early for Sera to get married now!"

Sierra also smiled and agreed, "It's too early, and we haven't confirmed our relationship yet."

"No confirmed relationship? You guys stayed in the ward all night, and I saw you hugging each other and sleeping." Mrs. Josie warned her exaggeratedly; "Men's novelty towards women is always temporary, do you just let him play with it?" Are you kidding me? That’s not okay. How will everyone see you if you tell me? Don’t let yourself down."

There was unspeakable innuendo in her tone, and Sierra curled her lips and retorted: "Why not? Don't you and your father sleep together all day long? Is your father's feelings for you temporary? Is he just playing with you? Have you been playing for more than ten years? This is not okay, Mrs. Qiao Qian, what will everyone think of you if you tell me?"

Mrs. Josie, who was sitting on the chair next to her, turned pale. This was a clear mockery that she had no identity and had followed Lizzie for more than ten years.

Anaxi also felt uncomfortable and said: "Sela! Don't talk to your mother like this."

Sierra always had her own way of pissing people off.

Li Qi's distressed expression was also successfully broken at this moment. He stood up with crutches and said angrily: "How long are you going to blame me? Even if I have tried my best to compensate for your past and your missing father." Love, you’re not satisfied yet!?”

Serra smiled and said: "You should have known the compensation earlier. Leicestershire and Cumbonia are only a week's boat ride away. Why didn't you come to see me?"

"It was Clemans who refused to let me meet you!" Lizzie argued.

"Really? Then you can always think of a way to call me, right? Why wait until the funeral is over before you think of picking me up?"

It was just that the matter was too big and it was not good for the noble scandal to spread, so Lizzie thought of taking her back. She had always understood it.

Of course, he felt a lot of guilt after seeing her, but compared with Qiao Qie and Anna Xi, who had been with him for more than ten years, everything was insignificant.

The so-called fair and doting Libra will never be biased towards her.

"You are becoming more and more unreasonable!" Li Qi's face flushed with anger, "You are completely different from when you came back to me. You have completely thrown away all etiquette and upbringing!"

Sierra was equally aggressive, "Mrs. Josie ordered the servants to trip me up, which almost disfigured me. Annashe deliberately killed her rabbit and told you that I did it. I endured my fear and drove her away last night. The results of it?"

She took a deep breath, "In the end, she left me and ran away without even saying hello or apologizing. Do you know how desperate I was at that time? You knew the truth of everything, but you never really stood up for me. .”

"I went back and called for help! I didn't abandon you!" Anaxi immediately retorted, with tears in her eyes, "You don't have to frame me like this."

Sierra turned her head and smiled, "Thank you, but it's a pity that you have such a mouth that can't speak."

Edward came in at the wrong time, and the atmosphere in the family became tense.

His forehead was still wrapped with gauze, and he held a record book in his hand. "I heard that Miss Serra was hospitalized. I came to express my condolences and talk about the lost mermaid."

Mrs. Josie got up with tears in her eyes and pushed her daughter in a wheelchair to leave. Lizzie waited for a while before asking him to sit down.

Edward said: "I want to talk to Miss Sierra alone."

When the ward door closed, he sat where Lizzie had just been.

"Did you just have an argument?"

"Thanks to you, I was interrupted before I could finish my argument."

Edward was silent for three seconds and decided to get to the point.

"The mermaid ran away after Thomas and I were injured. As far as I know, mermaids can only swim with their tails on land for a limited distance. If they are dehydrated for too long, they can't escape very far. Unless the people in the manor can help him escape, Apart from leaving, I can’t think of any other thief who is familiar with the environment in Mawson Manor, who knows where the mermaid is kept and takes it away.”

This was another suspicion on her head. Sierra asked calmly: "Do you have anyone to suspect?"

"You are very close to the mermaid, and it escaped with your help, but you also saved my life at that time. I did not tell Mr. Lizzie my suspicions." Edward said: "The mermaid has great research value. I just I wish you could tell me where you hid it."

Sierra touched her splinted arm and said calmly: "You have caught mermaids a long time ago and know their habits well. What do you want to find with that mermaid?"
