Chapter 487


    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 ident?”


    His words refreshed her memory. I’ve experienced a car ident. 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 ident. 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 exined, “She has been crying sincest night and ended up falling asleep as she was exhausted.


    I made her rest in the back room, but she’lle to see you once she’s awake.”


    Knowing Wendy was fine, Anna nodded as her worries were lifted.


    Colton had been carrying the heavy burden of the eldest son of the Gardner Family since he was born.


    As for Wendy, she was pampered with love and care by her family since her youth, so Anna was more


    worried about her.


    “Mom, the driver was killed instantly in the ident,” Colton informed as he watched his mother.


    Anna stiffened as a twinge of sadness shed across her eyes. She never expected to hear such


    news.


    She lowered her gaze as she digested the news. “It’s an ident, and the me belongs to the truck


    driver for running the red light. Please give the driver’s family some money as a token of condolences


    on my behalf.”


    Colton studied the look on her face before he added, “Are you sure it’s an ident?”


    Anna was surprised at first, but her face scrunched up in confusionter as she looked at him


    expectedly. “Are you implying it’s a murder attempt?”


    “This is just my guess, since the truck driver is still in the police station. They interrogated him many


    times, but his answers were always the same, iming he was tired at the moment and didn’t notice


    the car. However, I found that five hundred thousand was transferred into his bank ount within a few


    days based on my investigation.”


    He exined everything to his mother as he initiated an investigation right after she was injured in the


    ident.


    Nicole was listening to their conversation at the side and didn’t expect to learn about theplicated


    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 wereing 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.
