Chapter 246
The motorcyclist, whose helmet fell off, was one of the two men from Sage's past life who accused her of being the mastermind in the arson targeting Ivy. He and another man framed her in the police station, claiming that she had paid them to carry out the arson.
She recalled getting embroiled in a long argument with the two men, which was why they left quite an impression on her. Never had she imagined that they'd attempt to run over Donald in Colville.
Therefore, she speculated that Donald's injury in the past life was premeditated instead of an accident.
“Ivy, is this how much you hate me?" She clutched her fist until it physically hurt.
Not only did Ivy try to lock Sage up in a mental institution, but she also wanted to put Donald in harm's way!
In Sage's past life, Benjamin would have fallen for Ivy by this time. Back then, Sage remembered checking out Ivy's Instagram and finding out that the two worked together daily, even having dinners and watching movies. They were almost like a couple.
At the same time, lan disliked Sage to the point that he didn't want to look at her or talk to her. If so, why did Ivy still insist on hurting Donald in her past life?
Henry had to harm Layla because he wanted to ruin the Joyners' family business. But Sage, for the life of her, could not figure out the reason Ivy wanted to harm Donald.
Donald had neither interfered in Sage's relationship nor was involved in company matters. It seemed that Ivy was just adamant about making things difficult for people around Sage!
The thought gave Sage goosebumps. She could have patiently dealt with the problem if it didn't involve Donald, but she could not now sit back and watch if Donald was affected. She had the urge to hurry back to Haldon City and tear Ivy into pieces.
“Young lady, we've arrived," said the driver, which jolted Sage out of her angry thoughts.
She inhaled deeply to regain her composure before getting out of the car. Zachary had been waiting for her on the first floor of the ward. He asked, "Sage, why are you looking for me?" Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
“I didn't take up too much of your time, did 1?" she wondered apologetically.
He replied warmly, "It's fine. Grandpa's asleep. The nurse is looking after him, so you didn't hold me up in any way. Did you run into an emergency?"
She filled him in on the details of the motorcycle incident just now. She opined, "It looked like an accident, but it worried me. Could you get me the surveillance footage of that street? I'd like to take a closer look at the man's face."
Not only did she want to take a good look at the culprit's face, but she also planned to get her hands on the footage so she could investigate the background of the man when she got back to Haldon City in the hope of getting dirt on Ivy.
Zachary was astonished to learn about the accident. "How did you and Donald run into such an unfortunate event? Did you make a police report?”
She shook her head. "I didn't have the time to. Since I had no idea who they were, I decided to quickly get Grandpa back to the hotel in case they came back for us again.”
After some thought, he suggested going with her to the police station to lodge a report and get the police to share the surveillance footage for better investigation.
She thought it was a good idea. It'd be great if the police could find out any information on the two culprits. "Sure. Let's do this." She nodded. Zachary accompanied Sage to the street where the incident happened. The police arrived at the same time and obtained the surveillance footage of the area.
In the first footage, the first motorcyclist's face was obscured by the helmet. It captured a blurry side profile of the second motorcyclist. Sage checked out the footage and requested the police to get some surveillance footage from some nearby shops.
Alas, none of the footage was helpful—the culprits were either too distant or the view was obstructed. In the end, she failed to find a clear picture of the culprit's face.
The police looked into the motorcycle's license plate but did not manage to extract any useful information from it. Feeling disappointed, Sage confirmed that the "accident" was an orchestrated event. She saved the relevant surveillance footage.
