Chapter 1089
Felix stood at the stairs, and Jennifer glared at him with a mix of anger and surprise. Clearly, she had witnessed something.
Rosalie quickly walked up to Jennifer and asked, “Jen, what’s going on?”
“Mommy, I saw Felix pushing Aido downstairs!” Jennifer said. “Not just me, but Guille saw it too!”.
She didn’t understand why Felix had pushed Aiden. If Aiden hadn’t grasped the stair handrail just now, it would have resulted in a dreadful fall.
She had watched a TV series in which there was an aunt who was pushed down the stairs and then died.
Although Rosalie told her that what happened in the TV series was all fake, she still had nightmares for a long time.
Rosalie then looked at Guillermo. “Guille, is what Jen said true?”
Guillermo nodded. “When Jen and I saw Aiden about to go downstairs, Felix suddenly rushed out and pushed him.”
Suddenly, everyone’s eyes focused on Felix.
Felix’s little body winced.
“Felix, tell me why you did this?” Rosalie looked at him seriously.
He looked at Rosalie with his dark eyes wide open, then glanced at Aiden, and finally fixed his gaze on Jennifer.
At this moment, Jennifer looked more angry than confused. Felix
hesitated, unsure of what to say. He heard a sound coming toward Aiden, which prompted him to try to push Aiden away.
But if he said that, no one would believe him.
Because he had no evidence!
Felix lowered his head and said nothing.
Seeing this, Rosalie frowned and turned to look at Amelia. “Amelia, I’m sorry for what happened to Aiden. I’ll ask the driver to send you and Aiden to the hospital first.”

“Yes, yes. Let’s go to the hospital first,” Lillian also hurriedly said.
Amelia nodded and left with Aiden. Rosalie turned to Lillian and said, “Lillian, I’ll take the children back first. We’ll come to see you another day.”
“Okay!” Lillian replied and glanced at Felix, who was lowering his head. “Felix is still young. Educate him slowly, and everything will be fine,” she said, with hope in her heart.
Although Lillian never believed that adults were criminals and that children would inherit criminal traits, because Felix pushed Aiden down the stairs, she couldn’t help but think of Yvette again, making her feel a bit uneasy.
She thought, “This child has been with Yvette for five years. Could it be that he has become indifferent to human life under her influence?”
“I know,” Rosalie answered and left with the children.
She sent Zaid and Karina back to the Burton residence first and then returned to the Youngblood residence with another three children.
Along the way, Jennifer had been angry and ignored Felix.
And Felix kept lowering his head with his little pale face filled with panic.
After returning to the Youngblood residence, Rosalie asked Gary to look after Guillermo and Jennifer. Then she held Felix’s hand and went to the study.
“Felix, can you tell me why did you push Aiden downstairs today?” Rosalie asked.
Felix pursed his mouth tightly and said nothing. At this moment, his mind was only filled with the angry look of Jennifer just now.
“If you have any reasons, tell me. You wouldn’t just push someone for no reason, right?” Rosalie continued.
“Even if I said it, you wouldn’t believe me!” Felix said.
“If you don’t tell me, how can you be sure that I won’t believe you?” Rosalie asked. “Have you forgotten that I’m a lawyer? If you have a reason or if you’ve been wrongly accused, I’ll make sure justice is served and clear your name. But if you intentionally pushed Aiden downstairs, I’ll also have to punish you!”

After a moment of silence, Felix said in a low voice, “I heard a sound coming toward Aiden, so I wanted to push him away.”
“Sound? What do you mean?” Rosalie was confused.
“It was just a sound.” Felix was too young to describe the sound he heard. That was all he could explain.
Rosalie pondered for a moment. “Other than the sound, was there
anything else? If you want me to believe that you didn’t mean to push Aiden, at least let me help you find evidence. If it was just a sound, how can I find evidence?”
Felix lowered his head again. Yes, he had no evidence. So even if he said so, it still didn’t work.
No matter how Rosalie asked, he refused to say anything more.
Seeing this, Rosalie didn’t press further. Instead, she asked him to go back to his room, and once he figured things out, he could come and talk to her again.
Seeing Felix walk out of the room with his head down, Rosalie felt a little depressed.
Fortunately, Aiden grabbed the handrail in time. Otherwise, she really didn’t know how to face Amelia. After all, Felix was brought there by her.
“But… just a sound? He probably wasn’t lying to me just now,” she thought.
Moreover, during this period, Felix had been very well-behaved at the Youngblood residence.
She could feel that he was sensitive and had low self-esteem. She often put him together with Jennifer and Guillermo, hoping that he would become more cheerful.
Perhaps she needed to go to Lillian’s place again to investigate and find out exactly what that sound was.
Meanwhile, after walking out of the study for a few steps, Felix saw Jennifer standing there angrily and staring at him. “Why did you push Aido downstairs? He is such a good person. If you push him downstairs like this, he will easily die!”
Children of that age already had a concept of life and death.

Her anger made him feel tingling. She had never been this angry with him before, and now it was all because of Aiden.
“I… I’m not pushing him downstairs.” he stammered. He just wanted to push Aiden away from the sound.
“I saw it with my own eyes!” she said angrily, frustrated that he still refused to admit it. “Let’s go to the hospital. Apologize to Aido!”
Apologize? Why should he apologize? He didn’t want to push Aiden downstairs at all. If he apologized, it would be admitting that he did it on purpose!
“I… I won’t apologize,” he said,
But when he said that, she became even more furious. “Why won’t you apologize?”
“Why should I apologize?” he asked.
“Because you pushed Aido!”
“I didn’t push him!”
“But you did push him!”
The two children were arguing in the corridor, and many housekeepers stood at a distance, looking at them.
