When Aubree arrived, she found the child’s father and grandmother at his bedside. Hoping to gather more information, she and Birgitte posed as reporters for an interview. However, before they could enter the ward, they unexpectedly encountered the child’s father.
Arthur Morgan was just a junior high student at that rebellious age. Stanley gave them a suspicious look and asked, “Are you reporters?”
Aubree and Birgitte exchanged glances, instantly sensing that something was amiss. ‘That’s strange,‘ Aubree thought. ‘From what we heard, the Morgan family has always been incredibly welcoming to the press–so why this sudden change? But our arrival seemed to make Mr. Morgan unusually guarded? Aubree pondered, surprised.
Birgitte glanced at Aubree for a signal and began, “Hello, Mr. Morgan. We’re here for an interview…” adhering to their prepared script. Before she could finish, Stanley interrupted her. He turned to Aubree and said, “You’re Aubree Miller, aren’t you?”
Did he recognize me?‘ Aubree was briefly taken aback but quickly regained her composure. She then stated, “That’s correct. Let me reintroduce ourselves–we are from Bree Technology, here to gather the complete account of Arthur’s suicide attempt from you, Mr. Morgan.”
“There’s no need,” Stanley snapped, his eyes blazing with disgust. “I have nothing to say to you murderers. Now get out!”
“What’s with this attitude? Aren’t we just here to discuss things properly?” Birgitte retorted indignantly. Usually, situations like this involve simply asking for compensation or taking a strong stance and insisting on filing a lawsuit.
Honestly, they weren’t worried about going to court–legally, this entire situation had little to do with them. However, with so many eyes watching from the shadows, even the smallest action could be blown out of proportion. Recently, complaints against the platform surged.
The higher–ups were under increasing pressure, having repeatedly called for urgent discussions to resolve the issue quickly. However, the Morgan family refused all offers of compensation and showed no interest in legal action. Their main goal appeared to be stirring up trouble and drawing media attention. No one could tell what their true intentions were.

Stanley sneered. “My son is lying in there, his life hanging by a thread, and you expect me to speak nicely? I’m already showing mercy by not killing you.”
Birgitte was ready to argue further, but Aubree stopped her. “Let it go, Birgitte. Let’s get out of here.” Aub intrusion, Mr. Morgan.”
ded calmly, “My apologies for the
As soon as Aubree exited the hospital, her expression darkened. Ronald’s intentions were now unmistakable–he was resolute ip his plan to undermine her. “Ms. Miller, why did you stop me from speaking just now? He refused to meet with us–there’s something suspicious happening here!” Birgitte seethed with indignation.
“No, no,” Aubree reassured her. “We’re already at a disadvantage in terms of public opinion. If we create a scene, it will only backfire on us.”
Aubree carefully reviewed the inconsistencies in Arthur’s suicide case, convinced that she had overlooked something important. She closed her eyes to think, then suddenly opened them wide. Urgently, she exclaimed, “Birgitte, I need all the interview materials released tonight–right now.”
“Got it. I’m on it right away,” Birgitte replied.
Birgitte worked with impressive efficiency. Shortly after Aubree returned to the company, she received the materials that Birgitte had compiled. As Aubree carefully reviewed each one, she confirmed a suspicion she had been harboring.
Throughout all the media interviews, several members of Arthur’s family appeared–yet one person was notably absent: his mother, Lynn. However, Lynn was not absent; she recorded several accusatory videos and shared them on social media while intentionally avoiding any public appearances.
Why is that? Is she afraid to show herself? Or would appearing in public reveal her true intentions?‘ Aubree wondered.
Aubree drummed her fingers on the desk. “Please run a background check on someone for me, she instructed. “Make sure to focus your inve anything related to the hospital,”
Arthur was the only child of the Morgan family, and naturally, they indulged him, lavishing care and resources on his upbringing incident involving jumping was undoubtedly not a coincidence. All Aubree knew was that the Morgan family had out with details of those discussions remained unclear.

The only explanation that came to Aubree’s mind for why they would sacrifice their only son like this was deeply troubling.
