Chapter 607: Chapter 610: Revealing the Truth to Bella Scott (1)
Chapter 610
Rodney Rhodes originally wanted to see if Hannah Ford had any utilitarian value.
However, when he saw her swollen face and bloodstained body,
the image of that blood-soaked, cold and ruthless man suddenly surfaced in his mind.
Rodney Rhodes’ legs instantly went limp with fright, and he dared not look at Hannah Ford anymore.
In the end, it was the Stone family members who sent her to the hospital when no one else would.
Since the Manor was closest to First City Hospital, Hannah Ford was now receiving treatment in the VIP ward just below Lily Gray’s.
Aidan Lucas followed Samuel Mckinley into the elevator, deep in thought.
He was extremely grateful that he could hear Lily’s secrets from the past before seeing Bella Scott.
If it hadn’t been for the citrine necklace’s proof, he almost mistook Hannah Ford, that vicious woman, as his lifesaving angel from the past.
As for Bella Scott…
Heh, when Aidan Lucas thought of that woman, he couldn’t help but express a hint of mocking in his eyes.
Fortunately, he wasn’t the only one who mistakenly recognized someone else.
At least, Bella Scott was one such woman, even more foolish and pitiful than him.

When Aidan Lucas arrived at the entrance of Hannah Ford’s ward, he just happened to hear a commotion inside.
“Uncle Mark, is this your investigation result? I don’t believe it. Hannah’s facial injuries don’t look like they were caused by falling down the stairs… It’s obviously man-made!”
“No, you go and investigate again. I must know the truth!”
At this moment, Bella Scott was receiving her report from the Scott family’s loyal servant, Uncle Mark.
Bella Scott’s eldest son, Oliver Ford, was still holding a laptop, sitting on the side busy with work.
Her youngest son, Albert Davis Landers, was playing with his cell phone, half-listening to the conversation between Bella Scott and Uncle Mark.
It was evident that these two sons didn’t care much about Hannah Ford, lying in bed.
“Second heir… this is indeed the information that I have found. I believe this is the truth.” Uncle Mark was also in a difficult situation. The incident happened at the wine party hosted by the President.
Initially, it was difficult to know the details from within.
Moreover, all the guests who attended the wine party seemed to have sealed their lips in unison.
They refused to reveal a single word about the specific events of that time.
How could Uncle Mark know that it was because all those present, were so shocked by Aidan Lucas’s cold and ruthless gaze at that moment?
They were already wary of the Lucas family’s power.
Furthermore, who would dare provoke Aidan Lucas in that state?
Thus, after leaving the banquet, they unanimously chose to forget about the incident.
Although the Scott family was a prominent family in B City, their relationships with the major families in A City were not as close as the Lucas family’s.
As a result, they could only learn a little about the specific information released by the Presidential Palace after the cleanup.
Rodney Rhodes, scared out of his wits by Aidan Lucas, had his men announce to the public that Miss Ford had simply accidentally fallen down the stairs and unfortunately triggered her old heart condition.
“The truth?”
Bella Scott walked furiously toward the bed, pointing at Hannah Ford on the bed and yelling at Uncle Mark, “Look at the scars on Hannah’s face; they are not from any fall! Uncle Mark, I trusted you and left Hannah in your care. Are you going to betray my trust like this!?”
The gentle and elegant demeanor on Bella Scott’s face had long disappeared.
“Second heir, I…”
Before Uncle Mark could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a knock on the door.
Bella Scott finally remembered that she had invited Aidan Lucas.
She hurried to the door and opened it for him.
“Ethan, this is great… You’re finally here. Look at Hannah; she…”
