Chapter 9
Caroline didn’t want to incite a conflict and didn’t resist. Soon, these men grabbed her arms and pinned her down.
Amelia and Romilly had smug looks on their faces, thinking that they were finally able to catch this wornan.
“Mom, I’ll get them to send her to the police station now and let the police investigate this matter! If this is a fraud, we won’t let her go easily!”
After venting her wrath, Amelia gestured to the bodyguards to bring Caroline away. However, at this moment, Leon, who had remained silent the entire time, suddenly hugged Caroline’s legs, stopping the men from bringing her away.
Although he couldn’t speak, his eyes spoke the anger for him. He didn’t want these people to take Caroline away.
To save Caroline, he even jumped up to hit the bodyguards and bit their hands.
The bodyguards were in pain but didn’t dare to do anything to Leon. Finally, the boy hugged Caroline’s legs tightly and lay on the ground as if he wanted to become a boulder to stop Caroline from moving.
Everyone was shocked at the sight as they all knew how unruly Leon was usually. He would always ignore anyone who spoke to him and was never close to anyone.
He had never even initiated contact with his father, aunt, and great-grandma. It was impossible for him to hug someone.
However, he was currently trying to persuade a woman who had only been here for two hours to stay by hugging her.
It was downright jaw-dropping.
“Leo… Catherine exclaimed in shock.
Carmen assumed the act of a grandmother and said, “Leo, what are you doing? Get up quickly! Come to me!”
Leon didn’t listen to anyone and didn’t move as he grabbed onto Caroline’s legs tightly.
Caroline understood that Leon had started to accept her and didn’t want her to leave him.
She would try to stay for the sake of her son.
“Mrs. Ziegler! Can you ask these people to let go of me? I have something to say! After I finish, if you guys still want to catch me, I won’t do anything!”
Caroline looked at Catherine. The latter raised her hands and gestured to the bodyguards to let Caroline go.
With Catherine present, Amelia and the others didn’t dare to pull any stunts. After the bodyguards let go of Caroline, she immediately bent down to carry Leon in her arms.
“Leo, you can get up now!”
Leon let go of Caroline’s legs. Caroline swept her gaze across the women in the main hall, and her gaze finally landed on Catherine.
“Mrs. Ziegler, there’s something you need to know. Yvonne’s information that the Lewis residence sent was actually mine! You can ask people to investigate it to know the truth. Since I’m the one who is compatible with Quintin, it’s logical for me to be the bride to bring good fortune to him. Also, didn’t you see that Mr. Ziegler woke up when I came here? Doesn’t that mean I saved him?” Caroline responded to their difficult questions with a calm tone. Catherine listened to her while nodding as she felt that the woman’s words were reasonable.
“Okay, I believe your identity is real. I’ll go check on whether it was your information. However, why did you threaten to hit Kent and Bryan? They’re just children!”
Caroline took a deep breath and answered, “Mrs. Ziegler, if those two are children, isn’t Leon a child too?”
She pondered, “Do you know why 1 threatened to hit them? That’s because they were all bullying Leo!”
“Leo is younger than them, and he isn’t even taller than them. Also, he can’t speak. Does that mean he deserves to get bullied? They’re all your great-grandchildren. Shouldn’t you ask Leo if he was hurt?”
“They’re all my precious great-grandchildren. They all grew up and played together. Why would they harbor evil intentions? Why would Kent and Bryan bully Leo?”
Catherine never knew how her three great-grandchildren interacted with each other. She always saw Kent and Bryan taking the initiative to play with Leon and being nice to him.
She didn’t know it was all an act by the two children taught by Amelia and Romilly. They told the two children to be nice to Leon in front of Catherine.
Leon was still young and couldn’t speak. Moreover, he was a proud kid and never bothered to snitch on them. Therefore, it wasn’t abnormal that Catherine never knew the behind-the-scenes.
Amelia immediately rebutted, “Mom, stop listening to her lies. Kent and Bryan are such obedient kids. They always thought of Leo and would never bully him. Don’t listen to her make things up!”

Romilly also added, “Grandma, you know how kids play. They are fust playful but will make up with each other quickly This woman is blowing things way out of proportion! She’s setting my son up!”
To get another witness, Amelia asked Carmen, “Carmen, don’t the three children get along well?”
Carmen went on with Amelia’s words and replied, “Of course. What kind of bad intentions can a child have? Caroline must be thinking too much and making a huge fuss over nothing. After all, you shouldn’t threaten to hit children!”
That’s right! Kent and Bryan were so scared! They are still so traumatized!”
The women blamed Caroline for everything.
However, who was the person making things up and twisting the truth?
Caroline turned around and looked at Leon, who was beside her. Leon had a cold expression as he silently listened to the adults’ conversation.
His eyes were filled with disdain and contempt for the women. This was the main reason why he loathed them.
Even if her son couldn’t be bothered to witch, Caroline would never allow anyone to accuse them wrongfully.
She said coldly. “Mrs. Ziegler, 1 heard you are a virtuous and fair person, so I hope you will seek justice for Leo today! I have a video right now that can show how Leo was bullied. Mease take a look!”
Caroline knew that Catherine was the eldest in the Ziegler family, and the Ziegler family members had to listen to her orders. She was also a very powerful woman when the was young, so the definitely had a say in the Ziegler family.
Caroline took out her phone and found the video recording where die was filming the garden and showed them.
She turned the volume to the highest and started playing the video. The sound of children playing could be heard.coming from the recording
Soon, Kents and Bryan’s, shouts could be heard.
“Little mute Leon! Stalker! You’re a b d without a mother! Go and drink urine”
In the video, there were two chubby boys being rude to Leon and pushing Leon. Then, Leon started fighting them.
After that, the two chubby boys pushed Leon onto the ground until the latters nose was bleeding non-stop. They also stuffed dirt and leaves in his mouth. Finally, it ended with the two brothers stomping on Leon.
“How dare you run into us! Well beat you into a pulp! You little mute!”
The video ended, but Catherine was dumbfounded by what she had just seen.
She couldn’t believe her two great-grandchildren had bullied her other precious great-grandchild. She was instantly infuriated
“Was this really done by Kent and Bryan?”
