Chapter 103 She Feels Wronged
Almost dead?
Anna was shocked, but before she could react, Carla already figured something out and said,
"It's not our Katherine, it must be that unlucky woman. How did she come to the wedding? We told her never to step foot in Crownhaven."
"If she's not dead, take her to the hospital. If she is, quietly take her to the mortuary. Don't let anyone find out. What a way to ruin today’s wedding."
The tone was direct, impatient, and full of disgust.
Anna's heart sank. Is that how insignificant she was to her parents?
Even Giorgio, Enrico, and Tom didn't expect Carla to be so indifferent towards Anna.
What kind of emotions would Anna have when they looked at her with sympathy?
At that moment, Anna showed no emotions and coldly smirked.
"Dad, Mom, I am Anna. The person who drowned is Katherine. You should go and see for yourselves."
What?
She is Anna?
Mr. and Mrs. Stefanelli were shocked, looking at their daughter in disbelief.
After seeing the indifference, ruthlessness, and the small mole at the corner of her eye, their faces turned completely pale.
"Anna! It's actually you!"
"How could you pretend to be Katherine? What were you thinking!"
"Carla, Katherine is in danger. Let's go and see!"
"Yes, yes, my Katherine! Please be safe."
Carla hurriedly pulled the server and rushed outside.
The anxious gesture was completely different from before when they thought it was Anna. It was like the difference between night and day.
Anna never had the love of her parents since she was young. She didn't ask for anything, but this attitude still hurt her.
She doubted if she really wasn't an orphan.
"Mr. Vittorio, you go and see Katherine, I have something to do and need to go back."
"You can't leave." Giorgio's big hand still didn't let go, calmly and compassionately holding onto her.
"Katherine had an accident, and you appeared in her place at the wedding. You are the prime suspect. Come with me."
If she leaves now, she will be treated as the assailant and arrested.
Anna contemplated the events that were unfolding.
What kind of bad luck had befallen her?
After receiving the report from the server, the hotel manager had already arranged for Katherine to be taken to the hospital.
When everyone arrived at the hospital, Katherine was being pushed into the emergency room by a group of doctors.
She laid on the bed, as stiff as a rock.
Her entire body was soaked, her skin pale and blistered from the water. Her lips were devoid of color, appearing akin to a lifeless person!
"Katherine! Katherine!" Carla rushed forward and grasped the mobile bed, tears streaming down her face.
"My Katherine, what happened to you? Say something to Mom."
There was no response, lifeless. Carla anxiously looked at the doctor.
"Doctor, my daughter will be okay, right? I beg you, please save my daughter!"
The doctor naturally knew Katherine's identity and patiently replied, "Mrs. Stefanelli, we will do everything we can."
Then, healthcare workers and Katherine swiftly entered the emergency room, the doors closed, and everything became invisible.
Carla, in despair, grabbed Davide's arm. "Did you see that just now? Katherine couldn't hear me, is she going to be okay?"
Davide comforted her, both trying to reassure themselves. "No, don't think too much. Katherine will be safe for sure."
Although Giorgio didn't like Katherine, she was, after all, Charlie's mother. He let go of Anna's hand and looked sternly at the waiter.
"What happened?"
The waiter's hands trembled as he truthfully replied, "My girlfriend called me, and it was noisy everywhere in the hotel. Worried I wouldn't hear her, I went to the secluded garden to take the call. Unexpectedly, I noticed clothes in the water. Out of caution, I jumped in and rescued them. Then, I discovered it was Miss. Stefanelli, so I immediately informed the manager, and the manager asked me to find you."
Davide frowned and asked calmly, "When you rescued Katherine, what was her condition, and did you notice anyone suspicious before or after? What about surveillance cameras? Who pushed Katherine into the water?"
The waiter shook his head quickly. "No, when I rescued Miss. Stefanelli, no matter what I did for first aid, she had no response. It seemed like she had been drowning for some time. I was anxious at the time and didn't pay attention to whether there were people around. That area is a part of the garden designated for couples to enjoy. There are no surveillance cameras installed."
In other words, the cause of the drowning and the assailant couldn't be found!
Carla's vision darkened, and she nearly fainted.
Suddenly, she thought of something and swiftly walked towards Anna.
Smack!
A crisp slap echoed, catching the person off guard.
She sternly scolded, "It's you! It's you who pushed Katherine, wanting to kill her so that you can marry Giorgio!"
"Anna, she is your sister. How could you be so ruthless?"
"How could I have a daughter like you?"
A few consecutive sentences, the entire world directly affirming her guilt, concluding that she was the murderer.
Davide also walked forward, questioning seriously, "Anna, it would be best for you to come forward voluntarily. We don't want to make things too embarrassing."
Anna raised her hand and touched her burning cheek, looking at her parents with exceptionally dark and beautiful eyes, sneering.
"I won't uncover the truth. Speaking with such a venomous tone, I feel like we don't even have any blood relation," Anna said.
"You!" Davide exclaimed angrily. "What do you think you are? How dare you speak to me like this? You don't even value your own father!"
"Davide, since she doesn't recognize us, we don't need to show her any mercy," Carla said.
"Call the police immediately, have her taken to the station and let her explain herself to them," Carla said, taking out her phone to make the call.
Anna remained indifferent, not bothered at all.
She was not afraid of anything, not even facing a gun.
"That's enough." At this moment, a low and cold voice sounded.
It was Giorgio.
He looked coldly at Davide and Carla. "We haven't figured things out yet. Let's wait until Katherine wakes up. Do you still think it's not complicated enough that you have to involve the police?"
Katherine fell into the water on her wedding day. It could've already been a major news story.
If the police were involved and the family's dirty laundry was aired, it would undoubtedly have a great impact.
Davide and Carla adjusted their emotions and looked at Giorgio, whose aura felt icy. "Giorgio, we're sorry. We were just too worried about Katherine and didn't consider the bigger picture."
"You're right. Once Katherine wakes up, the truth will be revealed," Carla said firmly.
Carla glared at Anna with hatred. "Anna, you better pray that Katherine is unharmed, or I won't let you off the hook."
Anna turned her head away, ignoring her.
Under the light, her delicate face was visibly reddened from the hits, and her eyes were swollen.
It was clear that although she didn't express her emotions, she was also feeling upset and wronged.
Giorgio's gaze shifted towards Tom.
Tom immediately understood. "Miss Stefanelli, come here, let me take care of your face injury."
Anna didn't want to stay here either.
The atmosphere and environment suffocated her.
She nodded in agreement, ready to leave, but her wrist was grabbed by a long and beautiful hand.
