Chapter 136: Speaking the Truth
This time, he was not sitting in a wheelchair.
He was standing up straight. His figure was long and handsome.
He was wearing a simple black jacket, and his entire face was cold and solemn.
He held a long gun between his slender fingers.
“Mr. Foster.” Lance stood behind him and called out respectfully, “Why don’t you let me do this?”
wanted Mr. Foster to give him the gun..
He really did not expect that his boss would go straight to Eleanor with a gun to take out his anger for what happened to Madam earlier.
It would have been fine to let him do it.
But Mr. Foster insisted on going to Eleanor in person and not letting him interfere at all.
Mr. Foster was not only the fourth son of the Foster family and the leader of the Royal Sky Group, but he was also an excellent sniper.
Even though separated by such a long distance, he understood that Mr. Foster could absolutely hit Eleanor’s head in one shot…
However, he was not willing to stain the hands of his boss with blood.
It was better to let him do it.
“Give me the gun. I’ll keep an eye on Eleanor for you,” Lance pursed his lips slightly and whispered.
“No need.” Max was silent, his cold eyes looking out the window.
Lance sniffed and couldn’t say anything else.
On the other side.
In the hospital ward.

Eleanor lay worriedly on the bed, her nerves on high alert.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open.
She unconsciously curled up her arms and legs, not daring to take a breath.
“Eleanor, are you hungry? Mommy brought you some porridge…” Vanessa went inside the hospital room with an insulated lunch box. There was a slight smile on her face.
Behind her, Christopher, Edward, and Benjamin followed closely.
It turned out to be them…
Eleanor let out a small sigh of relief.
However, the thought of having to confess the truth to them…
She felt a drumbeat of fear in her heart.
What would Dad, Mom, Edward, and Benjamin think of her…
What would they think of her? Would they think that she was a bad person and that she was unforgivable?
Vanessa couldn’t help but furrow her brow as she sensed that there was something wrong with Eleanor.
The Tycoon’s Deepest Repentance
Chapter 136: Speaking the Truth
She quickly put down the insulated lunch box in her hand. She worriedly walked over to the bed and asked, “Eleanor, what’s wrong with you? Does your body hurt somewhere? I’ll call the doctor…”
Hearing her say this, the others immediately surrounded the side of her hospital bed, their eyes looking at her with concern.
Eleanor shook her head vigorously. “I’m not uncomfortable…”
“Then what’s wrong?” Vanessa touched her face and asked softly.
Eleanor’s fingers clenched.
She was both nervous and afraid.
Of course, she did not want to say anything about the truth of her injury.
Be she knew that the mysterious sharpshooter was watching her every word and action.
She did not want to say it, but she had to!
“Mom, Dad, brother, Benjamin…” Eleanor’s hesitant eyes turned around everyone’s face.
After that, she bit her lips tightly and spoke with some difficulty, “I’m sorry. I lied…”
“Lied?” Vanessa frowned in confusion, not understanding what her words meant.
The others were confused as well.
Eleanor’s eyes were red again.
This time, she wasn’t faking it.
She really wanted to cry.
“I wasn’t pushed down the stairs by Charlotte.” She took a deep breath and finally told the truth.
“What did you say?” Vanessa’s eyes widened in disbelief.
you all…” “I fell down by myself.” A crystallized tear rolled out of her eyes and Eleanor sniffled desperately. “I’m sorry… I lied to
Vanessa froze completely, unable to say a word.
She hadn’t expected the truth to be like this…
“Then why didn’t you say anything earlier?” Christopher was also completely stunned, his eyes rounded. A rare flash of anger came from the bottom of his eyes. “Why did you just lie?”
He never thought that the well–behaved and beautiful daughter in his own mind would lie and cheat and even falsely accuse others…
Christopher was so angry that his eyebrows were furrowed, and his fists couldn’t help but clench.
Edward, who was standing beside him, froze when he heard this.
An intense anger immediately rose in his clear eyes, and he turned to Eleanor with a slightly agitated tone. “So, you deliberately fell down the stairs and then framed our sister Charlotte, didn’t you?”
Eleanor couldn’t help but close her eyes the moment his words came out.
She did not dare look into the eyes and faces of the crowd.
“I’m really disappointed in you.” Edward’s eyes narrowed and his voice was cold, “Go apologize to Charlotte quickly.”
The handsome young man’s face was slightly twisted, showing that he was really angry.
Christopher sighed and helplessly shook his head. “Eleanor… Eleanor… How could you do such a thing? Because of you, I have wronged Charlotte. She must be very sad… You must apologize to her.”
Chapter 136: Speaking the Truth
Eleanor was lying on the hospital bed with her trembling voice and said, “I was… just obsessed… I didn’t know…”
“Obsessed?” Edward coldly asked back, “I think you had a malicious intent, right?”
Eleanor was so guilty that she couldn’t speak because she was stopped by Edward.
Christopher’s face was angry and hateful. He couldn’t help but continue, “Eleanor, you really shouldn’t have done that! I will definitely have to punish you. Not only do you have to apologize to Charlotte, but you also have to face the wall in your room and think about what you have done.”
As Eleanor listened, she felt both humiliated and uncomfortable.
Unconsciously, she raised her eyes and looked at Benjamin at her side.
He also looked at her, his eyes complex and cold, deep with an elusive emotion.
Benjamin…” Eleanor unconsciously called out to him.
His eyes moved and he suddenly spoke out, “Eleanor, you did something wrong indeed, and it was extremely wrong.”
This was the first time that he had spoken to her in such a stern and cold manner.
When she heard this, her heart suddenly ached.
She was so afraid, afraid that Benjamin would think she was a bad person…
“When you get out of the hospital, apologize to Charlotte.”
He looked at her helplessly and said this.
Everyone was demanding that she apologize to Charlotte…
Eleanor reluctantly bit her lip.
It was all because of that godforsaken sniper. If he hadn’t threatened her, how would she have gotten to this point?
“Alright.” At that moment, Vanessa, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke up.
Even though she knew that it was Eleanor who had made things worse, and it was Charlotte who had been wrongly accused, Vanessa’s heart was still in Eleanor’s favor.
She could understand that Eleanor had a sensitive and fragile mind, and maybe she was afraid that Charlotte would be a threat to her, so she would do this…
Looking at the pale and fragile appearance of Eleanor, she couldn’t bear to say anything about her at all.
“Okay, stop talking.” She let out a long sigh. “Eleanor already knows she’s wrong, so you guys just let her take care of her health…”
“Mom, don’t you have a double standard?” Edward’s eyes stared at her, a cold aura emanating from the bottom of his eyes.
This was the first time he had ever spoken to his mom in such a rebellious manner.
