"Mona, what happened? How did you roll down the stairs?" Jane asked worriedly as she sat by Mona''s bed.


    As soon as Jane spoke, Barbara, at the back of the crowd, felt a surge of panic. She feared that Mona would shift the me for her fall onto her. After all, Barbara had been alone then, and Mona had loudly imed she had pushed her down the stairs, hoping Bernard would hear it.


    Now, reflecting on her actions, Barbara felt a deep sense of regre. She did not know how to exin this.


    Mona looked up and met Barbara''s frightened gaze. She noticed Barbara nervously sping her fingers together and felt satisfied.


    "Grandpa and Grandma, I don''t remember how I fell. There are security cameras in the house; you can check them to find out, Mona said with a hint of tears in her eyes.


    These tears were genuine, she was truly on the verge of crying from the pain. Her side felt like it was burning


    She had imed that Barbara had pushed her down the stairs, which could be exined as a careless ident between sisters. It was better to check the surveince footage for rity directly.


    People often believed what they saw and heard themselves.


    That''s right. There are surveince cameras in the house. Old man, let''s hurry and check them out together. After saying this, Jane instructed Mona to rest and headed into the surveince room with Bernard.


    Albert and Barbara followed them.


    As they walked, Barbara wondered if she had identally touched Mona at the time. She could not remember clearly. Seeing Mona roll straight down the stairs shocked her.


    As Bernard and the others approached the surveince room, Barbara''s heart raced, and she felt as if it might leap into her throat.


    But she had not pushed Mona down the stairs. She wondered if she would be med for this.


    Meanwhile, Bernard entered the surveince room, and Albert quickly reviewed the footage. He wanted to understand how his sister could be so clumsy as to roll down the stairs. It seemed they would need to install thick carpeting on the staircase in the future. "Grandpa, it is starting. As soon as Albert finished speaking, everyone turned to the surveince screen.


    Among them, Barbara was the most focused. She wanted to see how Mona rolled down the stairs.


    The footage captured the two''s voices and actions at the staircase, including Barbara''s attempts to block Mona from going upstairs.


    What Barbara said afterward was also battling; she could not understand why she suddenly said that,


    As the footage continued, it clearly showed Barbara stepping forward while Mona retreated, ultimately rolling down the


    stairs.


    It was then that Barbara realized Mona had done this intentionally, deliberately rolling down the stairs to frame her.


    In reality, Barbara had maintained some distance from Mona. She had not rushed to touch her, but the surveince camera had captured an angle that made it look like she had pushed Mona down the stairs.Copyright N?v/el/Dra/ma.Org.


    As soon as Barbara saw the footage, she panicked and looked at Bernard, saying pitifully. "Grandpa, Grandma, Albert, please


    believe me. This is just matter of angles. I really did not push my Mona down."


    "Barbara, my sister can''t have gone down by herself, can she? Unless she is foolish. Also, what did you mean by what you said before my sister rolled down the stairs?" Albert retorted.


    The surveince footage clearly showed that Mona had fallen down the stairs because of Barbara.


    Barbara felt extremely aggrieved. Albert usually doted on her; she could not understand why he was siding with Mona against her now,


    She mumbled an exnation, "It is like this. I went back to my room for a nap and had a nightmare where my cousin was ming me. When I woke up, I felt very scared and dizzy. I happened to see her as I went out and just wanted to ask her about it, which is why I spoke those words on the footage."


    As she spoke, tears began to stream from the corners of Barbara''s eyes. Feeling wronged, she added, "As for how Mona fell down the stairs, I really do not know. Maybe I was still groggy from sleeping and was not fully aware of the situation when I saw her fall "Grandpa and Grandma, I know I was wrong," Barbara said, pleading with them for punishment. "Even if you want to chase me out of the house again, I will not say anything. It was all because of me that Mona got hurt. If I could. I would rather roll down the stairs in her ce and get injured instead."


    As Bernard looked at Barbara''s surveince footage, he noticed that she seemed to have not fully woken up.


    It''s probably because this child doesn''t feel safe enough,'' he thought. She didn''t even understand the potential harm of testing the medicine for me. How could she have pushed Mona down the stairs?"


    "Alright, Barbara. Don''t me yourself, Bernard reassured her. We all know that Mona falling down the stairs was just an ident, and it has nothing to do with you. Just apologize to her properlyter; she will understand."


    Barbara cried uncontrobly, feeling as if she had suffered immense injustice. Even though Bernard wanted to punish her to give Mona some justice, he felt embarrassed to say it.


    "Barbara, you should take a good rest. Is your dizziness rted to the medicine you tested for Grandpa? I remember Dr. Bird saying that the side effects canst a while," Albert spected, thinking about her well-being. Back then, Albert thought he should have acted more quickly to test the medicine for Bernard. If he had, Barbara would not have identally pushed Mona down the stairs.
