Everything passed by like a blur for Thalia. She had no idea how she found herself in that state with the law to start with.
What she was unaware of was that, Charles had been discovered by a maid who had returned from a rendezvous in the middle of the night. Her piercing scream woke up the house, so to speak.
Ky and Joy were the first to step out, and Joy nearly collapsed at the scene. Richard, as well as some other workers, followed as well. They were all deeply disturbed by the scene that greeted them when they saw Charles at the bottom of the stairs in a pool of his own blood. An ambulance was called, and Charles was soon transferred to the hospital.
He was rushed into a surgery that lasted hours. Ky and Joy waited patiently for good news about their son.
Later on, they found that Thalia was not in the house, and from the police's investigation, she was the most likely suspect judging from the state of her room and where they had found Charles.
