    She stopped, hesitating, when she saw Nathan stride in from outside, his face dark and gloomy.

    “Nathan, what exactly happened to Vanny?” yton immediately questioned his son as soon as he saw him.

    “Dad, Mom, you should ask Vanessa. Only she knows what vicious things she has done.” Nathan replied irritably.

    Casey’s eyes grew cold as she snapped, “What could Vanessa possibly do? That was self-defense, and in my opinion, she did nothing wrong. Susanna knew you were already married, yet she still interfered between you and Vanessa, trying to steal her husband. As a woman, if it were me, I wouldn’t let her off either. And to even perform surgery on her? Dream on! Do you think Vanessa is a saint? She’s just a woman.”

    “Mom, that’s unreasonable. Why are you so prejudiced against Susanna?” Nathan said, clearly frustrated.

    “This isn’t prejudice, it’smon sense. Son, you’re getting more and more confused. Your wife had an ident, and instead of supporting her, you help outsiders against her. That’s just too much. What kind of husband are you?” Casey grew angrier as she spoke.

    “That’s right. Vanessa is the young mistress of the Powell family. Her problems are the Powell family’s problems. How can you not even understand that? Besides, even so, you are at fault. If you treated Vanessa better and didn’t fool around with Susanna, would she have acted this way? You should reflect on your own mistakes.” yton said, his face dark.

    “Dad, Mom, how do you know I haven’t supported Vanessa? If I hadn’t spoken up for her in front of Susanna, Susanna would have called the police to arrest Vanessast night. She only refrained because of me. Vanessa, as a doctor, deliberately left a hemostat in Susanna’s abdomen. No matter how you look at it, that’s illegal and immoral. Susanna is also a woman and quite pitiful. If her family had any influence, even with my protection, I wouldn’t be able to help Vanessa.”

    “What nonsense are you spouting? I heard the police are investigating this matter. Do you really think that woman would be so kind as to let Vanessa off?” Casey red fiercely at Nathan.

    Nathan’s face turned green. “Mom, do you know why the police are investigating? Vanessa herself called the police yesterday. She not only confronted Susanna but also challenged me. In the end, she tried to prove her innocence and reported it. She doesn’t understand the seriousness of this incident. If she hadn’t called the police, maybe things could have been settled quietly. But now, since the police are involved, once the truthes out, it will be handled officially.”

    Casey was stunned for a moment before saying, “If she called the police, it means she’s truly innocent. Only someone who hasn’t done such a thing wouldn’t be afraid. Otherwise, why would she report it herself?”

    “Mom, you’re not a child anymore. Please think carefully. She was the one who operated on Susanna, and it’s been less than three days. Susanna hasn’t even left the hospital, but the hemostat was already removed from her abdomen, right at the surgical site. The facts are clear. Do you think the police are fools? No matter what, evidence is what matters. If the evidence is solid, no matter how good your reasons are, I might listen, but will the police?”

    Casey was dumbfounded, sitting there in a daze.

    “Even if that’s true, Susanna deserves it.” After a while, Casey muttered resentfully. She really didn’t like the sickly, delicate Susanna.

    “Dad, Mom.” At this moment, Vanessa, who had been standing in the hallway, slowly walked down.

    “Vanny.” As soon as Casey saw her, she immediately came over and took her hand,forting her, “Don’t worry. That woman Susanna is like a fox spirit, ruining your marriage with Nathan. She’s the one at fault. Don’t worry, we’ll find a way to protect you.”

    Vanessa smiled, “Mom, you don’t need to worry about me. I know what I’m doing. Don’t worry, I was the one who called the police. I believe the police will give me justice.”

    Casey looked at her daughter-inw, so confident and assured, and for a moment couldn’t tell who was right or wrong.

    “Vanny, don’t worry. I’ll talk to the police about this.” yton also looked at Vanessa, trying to reassure her.

    Vanessa felt a warmth in her heart.

    No matter what, the elders of the Powell family were still good to her. At least, they knew how to stand up for her.

    “No need, Dad. I have nothing to fear since I didn’t do it. The police will give me justice.”

    Nathan had been staring at Vanessa the whole time, his gaze cold and gloomy.
