Chapter 102 Edward's Inquiry
Lizzie greeted him warmly while leaning on a cane, "Thank you for taking care of my daughter here all night, and I will definitely come to the door to thank you someday."

They got the news that their two daughters had an accident in the middle of the night last night, and rushed to the hospital immediately, but at that time, Sera had already fallen asleep leaning on Rose Hill, and he didn't let anyone disturb them.

Mrs. Josie and Anna Xi in the wheelchair greeted him in the same way. Rosehill nodded slightly, glanced at the girl in the wheelchair with extremely faint eyes, and turned to leave.

Anna Xi sat there with a pale face, staring blankly at the prompt that the system just popped up.

Rosehill's favorability value is reduced by five.

She had never had a good impression of him before, so the points would be deducted and directly turned into a negative number.

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

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

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

Sierra looked at Anna Xi staring at herself, her expression also changed, and asked curiously, "What's wrong with your face? Cramp?"

"No." Anna Xi turned her head away.

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

Lizzie sat by the bed, apologetic, "David's family had a big accident, and I almost lost you too."

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

"Well, Mr. Arpu is still here to investigate the accident last night." Lizzie said with a sullen face: "A murderer appeared in our town, three people including a policeman were killed, a road was destroyed, you and Anna Hee was the only eyewitness."

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

Sera has always admired her superficial skills.

She gnawed on a crunchy 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 big turn, "When is Mr. Rosehill planning to come to marry you?"

Anna Xi choked on a mouthful of apple, coughed and said, "Dad! Isn't it too early for Sera to get married now!"

Sierra also echoed with a smile, "It's too early, and we haven't confirmed the relationship yet."

"No definite relationship? You stayed in the ward all night, and I saw you sleeping in each other's arms." Mrs. Josie warned her exaggeratedly; "Men's newness to women is always temporary, don't you just let him play? Playing with you? This is not acceptable, what will everyone think of you if you tell me? Don't let yourself be depraved."

There was unspeakable insinuation in her tone, and Sera hooked her lips to retort: ​​"Why not? Don't you and daddy sleep together all day long? Dad's feelings for you are temporary? Is he just playing with you? Playing for more than ten years? This is no good, Mrs. Josie, what do you think of you?"

Mrs. Josie, who was sitting on the chair next to her, turned pale instantly. This bright mockery mocked her for having no identity and having followed Lizzie for more than ten years.

Anna Xi also felt uncomfortable: "Sera! Don't talk to mom like this."

Serra had her way when it came to pissing people off.

Lizzie's distressed expression was also successfully broken at this moment. He stood up with a cane, and said angrily: "How long are you going to blame me? Even if I have tried my best to make up for your past and your missing father. Love, are you still not satisfied!?"

Sierra laughed and said, "You should have known about the compensation earlier. Leicestershire and Cambunia are only a week's boat ride away. Why don't you come and see me?"

"It was Clemens 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 thinking of picking me up?"

It's just that the incident was too big, and the scandal of the aristocrats was really bad, so Lizzie wanted to bring her back, and she always understood.

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

The so-called fair and favored scales will never be biased towards her.

"You're getting more and more unreasonable!" Li Qi blushed furiously, "It's a different person from the one who came back to me, and you have thrown away all the etiquette and upbringing!"

Sera was also aggressive, "Mrs. Josie ordered the servants to trip me up, which almost disfigured me. Anna Xi intentionally killed her own rabbit and told you that I did it. Last night I drove her away with fear. The results of it?"

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

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

Sera turned her head away and smiled, "Thank you, it's a pity that you can't speak."

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

Gauze was still wrapped around his forehead, and he was holding a notebook in his hand, "I heard that Miss Serra was hospitalized, so I came to offer condolences, and talk about the lost mermaid by the way."

With tears in her eyes, Mrs. Josie stood up and pushed her wheelchair-bound daughter away. Lizzie waited for a while before telling him to sit.

Edward said, "I want to have a private chat with Miss Serra."

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

"Have you just had a quarrel?"

"Thanks to you, I was interrupted before the quarrel was over."

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, the mermaid can only swim on land with its tail for a limited distance, and they can't escape very far if they have been dehydrated for too long, except for the people in the manor who can help him escape. Other than leaving, I can't think of any other thief who is familiar with the environment in Mawson Manor, knows where the mermaid is locked up, and took it away."

This was her suspicion again, and Sera asked lightly: "Do you have any suspects?"

"You are very close to the mermaid. It escaped with your help, but you also saved my life at that time. I didn't tell Master Lizzy my suspicion." Edward said: "The mermaid has great research value. I wish you would tell me where you hid it."

Sera touched the arm on which the splint was fixed, and said calmly: "You have caught mermaids a long time ago, and you know their habits well. What do you want to find with that mermaid?"
