Chapter 312: Magical Realism Action Blockbuster

Chapter 312: Magical Realism Action Blockbuster

The netizens had quite a show to watch.

"So exciting, like a modern sci-fi fantasy action blockbuster!"

"Hahaha, the comment above is killing me."

"Seriously, I haven't seen such a realistic brawl in years."

"And that recording just now, do you think it was real?"

"I'm guessing it's real. It hasn't been that long since the charity sale, and that caregiver had no idea they'd be ambushed. How could they fake it on the spot?"

So people immediately started digging for the truth, looking into the details of the charity sale.

While a few netizens made light of the situation, others tried to uncover the truth, and some were left deeply alarmed.

"There was a chainsaw at the scene. Did they use the chainsaw?"

"Don't know."

Because toward the end of the fight, the person livestreaming had their phone knocked to the ground. They could only hear some sounds but couldn't see what was actually happening.

After all, many of the items there posed serious risks. One wrong move and someone could die.

Be it the attack on the caregiver or the ensuing fight, either could have cost someone their life.

"If they really used the chainsaw, the consequences would be unthinkable!"

This had gone way beyond the scope of fans arguing.

...

The incident blew up big time.

Amelia and the others got the news too.

So the barbecue ended abruptly.

Amelia had Persephone and the others take Briar to rest.

As everyone had been drinking, York and Amelia asked the others to spend the night at the Jenkins Villa.

The two of them were driven by their driver to the police station.

After all, this was no small matter.

Since multiple statements brought up Amelia, they asked her to come and explain what happened.

Amelia herself was quite worried too.

With so many people present and dangerous items like chainsaws at the scene, the situation was highly risky.

Because of the distance, Amelia and York arrived at the police station a bit late. The area was packed with family members of those who had been fighting, along with people who came after watching the livestream or hearing about it through messages.

Amelia was slightly stunned to see so many people.

“There are this many people?” Amelia blurted out.

York handed Amelia a tablet, indicating that quite a few people had gathered this time.

Trailing them was a vehicle packed with bodyguards for protection, officially introduced as assistants.

Among the crowd at the scene, some recognized Amelia and some didn't, but every single person looked frazzled with terrible expressions on their faces.

After all, this would give anyone a headache.

Most of these people were kids, many hadn't even started working yet.

If not handled properly, they might be detained and end up with a criminal record.

Amelia walked inside. The police, already informed of who they were and their reason for coming, brought Amelia in for questioning.

Amelia was very cooperative.

When she came out, she noticed through the glass that many people were crying.

Some bore injuries from the beating, some were frightened, and some felt remorse...

A number of people were drenched in blood, and she was told that the severely injured had already been taken for emergency care.

Amelia looked at these people and their frazzled relatives, sighing helplessly.

She could only help them as much as she was able.

"Thank you, thank you," said a white-haired elderly person, wiping away tears. "The child's parents aren't here, I’m the only one who came…"

...

While things were hectic here, countless people online were also discussing the incident. Some reporters and others had arrived in the area, hoping to get firsthand information.
But since this was a police station, they didn't dare go too far. So they just stayed outside, Watching people come and go as they finished their business, and snapping photos from afar.

...

At the hospital.

After Rhys, Finn, Cleo, and Felicity learned about William's condition, they all discussed having psychiatrists treat him together.

Just then, Rhys's phone suddenly vibrated.

He answered the call and got the latest news.

"I'm taking Grandpa and Grandma back first," Felicity said, pausing slightly before adding, "Come find me when you're done. I have something to ask you."

Rhys gave a slight nod, indicating his understanding.

Finn, Cleo, and Felicity left first, while Rhys headed straight to Isabella's hospital room.

As soon as he opened the door, Isabella quickly hid her phone.

Rhys wasn't having it. He directly snatched her phone away.

"What are you doing? Give me back my phone!" Isabella shouted.

Rhys, however, ordered someone to restrain Isabella.

Rhys scrolled through her phone and discovered what Isabella had been doing with her second account.

"Do you know someone could have died!" Rhys said furiously.

"There was a chainsaw at the scene! You saw it yourself!"

The situation was genuinely frightening; a single misstep could have resulted in bloodshed.

"What's it to you? How is that your concern? If they want to fight, let them! Give me back my phone!" Isabella said angrily.

Her attempt to kill the caregiver had failed.

The police arrived fast; soon after her message was sent, they moved to round everyone up.

Of course, the caregiver was taken along too and was now at the police station giving a statement.

She'd missed the best opportunity to strike.

Hearing Isabella's words, he felt a wave of dizziness from his anger.

"Their business?" Rhys pointed at the phone. "They were all standing up for you!"

"Isabella, if any one of them had died, that death would be on you!"

Isabella rolled her eyes.

"But nobody died." Isabella was very annoyed now. While they fought amongst themselves, no one had the thought to harm the caregiver!

Rhys was so angry he felt like he could cough up blood.

He couldn't understand how a person could be so wicked!

"Confiscate all communication devices from her," Rhys told the person watching Isabella. “Stay next to her and watch her carefully. Don’t let her make any moves until I return."

"Yes!" Someone immediately came forward to handle it.

However, Rhys’s plan was disrupted when the police showed up.

This whole incident had started with Isabella.

So they needed to take Isabella back for questioning.

Unable to intervene, Rhys allowed them to take Isabella away and quickly went to inform William..

After learning about it, William just told Rhys to handle it.

But when he saw the police station interface on the tablet, he caught sight of Amelia.

Just a fleeting glimpse, but he knew it was her.

...

The internet was thrown into turmoil.

The reporters remained outside and did not enter.

People were interviewed as they came out after finishing their business.

Most people didn't want to talk, but some were willing.

So—

"Of all things to do, they spent the whole day just staring at their phones, watching that Isabella!"

“She kept saying how wonderful Isabella was and how kind she was, but where is Isabella now?"

"What normal person could do something like this? I feel like the kids have been brainwashed!"

Already having emotions they couldn't vent, they all spoke out now.

Everything said was directed at criticizing Isabella.

“That Isabella spends all day online doing nothing good—she’s the one who turned my perfectly good child into this!"

Those nearby listened and nodded in agreement, then moved closer together.

These parents were all victims in the same way, sharing in the same thoughts and grievances. Everyone was very dissatisfied with Isabella.

Right at this moment, Isabella was being brought over too.
