When he heard what had happened, he rushed to the stairs and saw livia, she was covered in blood.
“Nathan… I…” She was crying as she pointed to Stella and Liam, and then Nathan took off his coat and covered her body.
“Let’s go to the hospital now, it won’t be a problem.”
Nathan hurriedly carried Olivia to the left, before leaving, he looked at Stella with his piercing gaze.
Nathan had already left with Olivia, the people around, although successively prepared to leave, didn’t say anything either, but their gazes were peculiar towards them. Probably because, in their hearts, he was an extremely poisonous woman who had purposely pushed Olivia down that high staircase. Also, the shocking blood on livia’s body and her thrilling scream.
Then they could conclude this scene.
Stella had also already become pregnant and given birth to a baby. As for the blood between her legs, she clearly understood what that meant.
Stella didn’t want Liam to receive the sinister stares of these people and Olivia’s fall and bloodied body were unbearable for this three–year–old.
“Son, let’s go home, okay?” Stella bent down and picked Liam up, and then he hugged her tightly, his face clearly showing that he wasn’t well. “Darling, don’t worry, you weren’t to blame for this.” She comforted him, but inside she was thinking of only one thing.
“Nathan Collins, you’re not a real father!”
Stella was getting ready to leave, when in the midst of all the people one walked towards her, and without giving her a chance to respond, a hand hit her face.
Liam, on seeing the scene, was somewhat stunned, and looked at the person who had hit his mother. It was none other than Carla
Stella only felt a searing pain on her face, but Carla slapped her and almost went for more, but in the end she was quickly pulled away by Filipo.
“What are you doing?
In front of so many people? Let’s just go!” Filipo said, clearly annoyed, but Carla was still full of rage.
“Stella, if anything happens to Olivia, I won’t let you go…”
Liam’s eyes were red, he used his hand to hold Stella’s face, which had been hit by Carla.
“Mom, Il take care of it. Does it hurt?”
He said this and slowly blew on Stella’s cheeks.
Stella felt her eyes getting hotter and hotter, but she tried hard to control it, she steadied her breathing.
“It’s okay, mom’s not hurt, just, let’s go home, okay?”
When she left the hotel with Liam, she met Filipo in the lobby, but Carla was no longer by his side, she had probably gone after her daughter–in–law. And when Filipo saw them, he walked towards them and stroked Liam’s head.
“Stella, don’t think too much about it, just take Liam home, I’ll take care of the rest.” He said understandingly, and Stella just

nodded.
“It’s okay, I’ll take care of Liam.”
Since Stella had come with Nathan, she didn’t have a car to get back so, with some difficulty due to her heels, she walked a couple of blocks until she managed to get a cab.
On the way home, Liam was clinging to his mother as much as he could, so Stella knew he was scared, and didn’t know what to do to calm her son down.
When they got home, Anna was furious, even though she hadn’t attended the party, that didn’t mean there weren’t any spies there, so everything that happened there, she already knew clearly.”
She used her cane and one after the other hit the floor, her face in a foul mood.
“It was only that damn thing coming back that something bad happened. – Anna shouted nervously.” I had organized everything, but now the family reunion was the laughing stock of the whole town!
Beside her were several former employees of the Collins company; because of Anna’s anger, they didn’t dare talk about anything.
Anna’s fury calmed down a little when she looked at the mother and son standing in the doorway, so as not to frighten Liam, she
just smiled.
“Liam, my love, will you come and give your great–grandmother a hug?” Anna sat down on the sofa and Liam walked over and hugged her. “Are you all right?”
“Great–grandma, I saw that woman saying cruel words to my mother, she even tried to push her first, but I didn’t touch her, I swear, she just fell by herself!” Liam said, hugging the lady.
“I know dear, after all, you’re a good boy, how could you do something like that?” Anna actively consoled him, and used her pale old) hand to stroke his head. “Liam, don’t be afraid, don’t worry about it either. Grandma knows it’s nothing to do with you, you’ve done nothing wrong, okay?”
Liam nodded with his red eyes showing, and Anna passed him on to Stella.
“Ella, take Liam to rest for a while, and don’t think too much about this accident.”
Stella took Liam upstairs and spent a long time holding him, until he slowly fell asleep. This situation is really difficult for a child to understand what happened, and Stella, thinking about it, also felt very sad.
After Liam fell asleep, Stella didn’t leave immediately, she sat down at the head of the bed to look at him. Her mind wandered over what had happened today, all very chaotic indeed, and she felt very tired. Then, finally, she fell asleep next to him.
She didn’t know how she had fallen asleep, until a hand patted her shoulder and she woke up again.
“Ella, go back to your room. The weather is very cold. You’ll feel cold if you sleep here, just leave Liam to be looked after by the nanny.” Anna stood beside her with a loving face.
Stella nodded and reached out to turn off the light, then she followed Anna out of Liam’s room and into her own,
“Grandma, you should rest too, okay?”
When she entered the room, she looked at the clock, it was already midnight, and there was no telling how Olivia was, but no matter what happened, Nathan would stay by her side, and he wouldn’t be coming home tonight, least of all Carla.
She was so attentive to Olivia that she would certainly stay by her side the whole time.
