Chapter 255 Slander Maggie had always been wary of Beth, for she never believed that a woman who saw her as a love rival. would harbour any good intentions.

At first, when she saw Beth standing motionless, Maggie let her guard down a bit, only to realise that something was off about the passing waiter.

The tray he carried no longer bore glasses filled with wine, but only two empty ones. Without drinks, there was no need for him to purposefully head upstairs; he should have gone down to replace the glasses.

In her moment of realisation, the waiter suddenly turned, discarded his tray, and thrust violently towards her back.

With quick reflexes, Maggie steadied herself on the stair railing and dodged to the side.

The attacker hadn't anticipated her alertness. Having missed his target, he tumbled headfirst down the stairs.

"Urghhh!" A scream rang out as the waiter crashed down, rolling several times before coming to a stop on the ground. floor's carpet.

The onlookers, visibly shaken by the sight, gasped at the commotion.

The woman briskly retreated two steps, casting a glance downward. The commotion also attracted a large number of onlookers in the vicinity.

Maggie stood firm, clutching the railing, sweating a cold sweat from the close call.

If the waiter had succeeded, she couldn't imagine how bad her fall could have been. However, in her haste, she inadvertently twisted her ankle again during the attack. She was speechless, cursing her poor luck for the month.

Maggie stood still. From where she stood, she could see the fallen waiter, a young man probably in his early twenties, his face scraped from the fall.

He slammed his forehead against the stairs' edge. Blood trickled down from his forehead, staining the dark brown carpet with drops resembling dark red flowers-a chilling sight.

"What happen? It looks like a waiter falling from upstairs!" Someone exclaimed.

"Is he dead? There's so much blood." "Get the doctor! Doesn't the hotel have a first-aid counter?" "What happened for him to fall like that, eh? Isn't that the adopted daughter of the Camerons?" The murmurs of speculation rose. As they spoke, they lifted their eyes and found Maggie standing at the top of the stairs.

16:21 Mon, 27 May GB Chapter 255 Slander Her eyes were filled with unwillingness at the failed attempt.

Maggie was indeed sharp.

Beth had hoped the fall would sabotage her chances to be with Nathael.

Surprisingly, Maggie had deftly avoided the attack.

Nathael was negotiating with Orson's son when he looked up to see a crowd gathered around the bottom of the stairs, with Maggie standing pale-faced by the second-floor railing.

"Excuse me." Nathael said.

He walked briskly. His gaze settled on the fallen man, a frown etching his brow. He called out, "Alex." "Understood, Mr. Harris." Alex responded.

He checked the waiter's breath before reassuring the onlookers and saying. "He's going to be okay." As the hotel's doctor arrived at the scene, Alex moved to the side and let the doctor do his job.

Nathael didn't wait for the outcome. He moved quickly to Maggie's side. His hand steadied her as he asked in a low voice, "What happened?" Maggie glanced back, and she saw that Beth had already left via another staircase.

Beth gavea warning. She probably thought I didn't get the hint, and she believes I'm carrying your child. Then that waiter tried to pushdown the stairs, but I dodged it on time." In just a few words, she relayed the incident.

Observing the waiter's blood-stained face, Nathael could easily envision the recent danger.

As he glanced downward, he noticed Beth was among the crowd below. Her eyes locked with his.

Nathael's gaze darkened with a hint of murderous intent lurking in their depths, like a sword unsheathed and ready for vengeance.

Beth felt a sudden tightness in her chest; an inexplicable fear mingled with an unspoken unease surged in her heart.

No, she thought to herself; Nathael wouldn't just take that woman's word for it.

It was that waiter who attempted to push Maggie downstairs-what did that have to do with me? Beth kept reassuring herself. She was convinced that even if Maggit sought to frher, there was no evidence to support such claims.

"How's your foot?" As he squatted before Maggie, Nathael asked. His fingers gently squeezed her swollen ankle, and his brow furrowed. He said, "The swelling seems worse; I'll ask someone to bring you flats." Maggie didn't refuse; after all, the high heels were truly uncomfortable. She had only planned to show her face and wait for Nathael to exchange pleasantries with Orson before leaving However an unexpected accident had occurred 2/3 16:21 Mon 27 May P Chapter 255 Slander Just then. from the crowd below, a voice urgently proclaimed, "He's awake! It looks like he's fine!" After the flats were delivered and Maggie had switched shoes, she heard the commotion downstairs. Looking down, she saw a tall waiter being supported by a doctor, slowly getting to his feet.

75% They had stopped the bleeding on his head. Although he appeared to have a fractured arm, his injuries were not serious.

Orson's son, together with the hotel manager, rushed over. The manager asked hex what om happened? Did yo you hurt badly? How could you be so careless as to fall down the stairs and disturb our esteemed guests?"

Maggie scrutinised the waiter. Ben had an ordinary appearance but was tall in stature. His facial features. were average, with sslightly long and unkempt hair in the front. His hair quality wasn't very good, and there were dark circles under his eyes, betraying his fatigue. Ben glanced towards Beth. He clenched his teeth and declared, "I was just about to go downstairs to get more wine when someone suddenly pushed ne down!" With that, he looked straight up at where Maggie stood.

No one expected his answer. All eyes followed his gaze upward.

Only the stern-faced Nathael and a woman in a white dress stood there..

The manager paused for a few Deven seconds before warning in an even tone, "Think carefully. We have VIPS NO here today. Are you sure you didn't just twist your ankle by accident? Don't speak rashly!" Ben lowered his gaze and reaffirmed, "Someone did push me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have fallen headfirst." The manager's expression soured. He hoped to downplay the incident, but under the watchful eyes of the crowd, it was difficult to dismiss.

Orson's son was the first to break the silence; he asked, "Why would anyone push you? Did you see who it was?" Ben pondered for a moment before responding uncertainly, “I can't be sure, but it looked like... that lady." Once more, he cast a meaningful look in Maggie's direction, leaving his implication hanging in the air.

The guests around them started to discuss among themselves. Sfind his accusation baseless; Maggie had no personal vendetta against him, so why would she do such a thing? Others believed in Ben's injuries; the fall from the stairs was too dangerous to be staged for a mere prank. He wouldn't gamble with his life.
