Stop It, She’s Remarrying! By Stellar Strands Chapter 97
Conrad frowned but he knew that Mrs. Taylor wouldn’t lie.
“Why is it that serious?”
Mrs. Taylor said, “I don’t know…”
“I don’t want to drive alone again! Please don’t leave me alone…”
Mrs. Taylor froze. She was not deaf. She could clearly hear everything that Esme had said.
Even through the phone she could already imagine how her master was holding Esme.
She then looked at Fia, who was sitting on the sofa as she gasped for air. Even someone like her who was
not involved in their affairs could feel her heart turning into stone.
“Mrs. Taylor?” Conrad looked at the phone. She didn’t even finish before hanging up the call.
“Madam, I’ll take you to the hospital.” Mrs. Taylor helped Fia up as she cried.
Why would fate treat someone as gentle as her madam like this?
The ambulance siren could be heard once she was outside and she saw Silas get out of the ambulance with Jason.
“How is the madam doing, Mrs. Taylor?”
“She can’t breathe… Can’t speak…”
Jason looked at her with a darkened expression. “She’s suffering an anaphylactic shock.”
He carried Fia into the ambulance and put her on a stretcher, then began giving her first aid with his colleague’s assistance.
The woman in the hospital bed opened her eyes and all she saw was white.
She looked with numbed eyes. Was this all a dream?
“You’re awake?” The man next to her bed held her hand tightly.
“You scared me.” Fia blinked and her vision began to focus as she looked at the man that was so close to her.
So handsome. Well–dressed.
So unlike him when he was in his youth. It kept reminding her of how he looked in the past.
“Fia?”
Conrad bent forward slightly and waved his hand in front of her.
Fia stared at him, listening to his soft words. She sobbed and her tears rolled down uncontrollably.
“Are you feeling uncomfortable?”
His tone became even gentler, worried that it would surprise her. He quickly helped to wipe away her
tears.
Fia gulped trying to ease the pain from her throat and asked like a helpless child, “Why?”
She wanted to ask why he was so gentle. To make her sink deeper?
Conrad was stunned and he held her hand tightly.
“Why did you eat that mango? Don’t you know how dangerous it is? You suffered an anaphylactic shock.” Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
She stared at him. “When did you know about this?”
She remembered clearly what he said when Mrs. Taylor called him. “She started it, let her see it through.”
His dispassionate tone was like a hand pushing and holding her under the water, stopping her from breathing.
He couldn’t help but say it in a severe tone, “When I knew about it, they were already saving you.”
He could still remember his heart tightening at that time.
He thought that everything was going to be alright, not expecting that something like this was happening.
“You can’t eat mangoes. Why did you eat one?” He was obsessed with this.
She gently asked him, “Did I interrupt you from accompanying her?”
He frowned.
“So… You tried to call me back, even willingly using your life as a wager?”
Fia let out a weak smile. “I did, didn’t I?”
Conrad let
go
of Fia’s hand as his expression changed. “You’re at fault this time. Apologize to Esme with
me next time.”
Fia was outraged as she asked him, “So, I have to apologize to her because I got admitted to the hospital and interrupted you from spending time together?”
“That’s not what I meant!” Conrad cut her off.
“Do you even know who Victor is? Why did you ask him to have his people antagonize Esme!”
There was confusion in Fia’s eyes, but she wouldn’t give him the satisfaction.
She was deliberately going against him.
