"Young Madam, what are you talking about?" Jane, who didn't know what had happened between Elizabeth and James, said with a smile, "Isn't he on a business trip now? Even if he came back, he would inform you first, wouldn't he? How could he not tell you when he came back?"
Hearing this, Elizabeth's heart missed a beat, and the smile in her eyes disappeared, "He really didn't come back?" It was impossible! She was really sure that she hadn't applied the potion before she fell asleep.
"I think so."
Elizabeth looked at Jane and asked with a frown, "Jane, weren't you at home just now?"
Jane shook her head, "No. I just received a phone call and was told that I should go out to take a parcel." While saying this, Jane felt a little strange and said in puzzlement, "Previously, when we received a parcel, the superintendent would take it and then send it to us personally. But today, I was asked to take it at the gate."
South Lake was a high-end residential area where the rich and the noble lived, so the security measures here were very nice. Generally speaking, people who did not register would never be allowed to come in.
"But, I didn't see any delivery guy when I went there. The person called the landline at home, so I don't know his phone number. Young Madam, do you think it's a prank?" Otherwise, why didn't she see anyone when she went out?
Elizabeth was not in the mood to care about this matter at this time. Hearing this, she just shook her head with disappointment, "I don't know." She originally thought that Jane was at home so that she would know whether James had come back or not and whether those things were her own illusions or not. The result let her down.
In fact, she thought that James might really come back. However, he deliberately sent away Jane because he didn't want Jane to see him.
However, she denied this idea as soon as she thought about it, because this was James's home. Why should he do that?
She let go of Jane's hand, "I'll go up first."
Seeing that Elizabeth turned around and wanted to leave, Jane hurriedly stopped her, "Young Madam!" 'What?¹ "Why do you wear a mask? What's wrong with you?"
Elizabeth smiled awkwardly, "I'm fine. I caught a cold, and I'm afraid I'll infect you."
"Oh." Jane nodded, "How do you feel now? Have you taken the medicine?"
"Yeah, don't worry. I'll go to sleep first. As for dinner... don't wake me up at dinner time. I'll eat when I'm hungry."
Elizabeth quickly went upstairs. At this moment, she couldn't care that much, grabbed her mobile phone and called James.
However, the only thing that came from the receiver was a mechanical cold female voice, "The number you dialed was busy."
Although she was disappointed, she sent him a message, "James, did you come back just now?"
After that, she thought for a few seconds, and then sent the second message, "Did you... apply the medicine for me?"
Looking at the messages on the screen, she waited nervously, hoping that she could receive his reply in the next second.
However, she did not receive a reply from James but received a call from Theodore's mom.
Listening to her cursing and crying, Elizabeth frowned hard. After a while, she asked, "Did you make a mistake?" Otherwise, it would not be like this.
"If the doctor said so before we came here, I would believe him. But he suddenly kicked us out. Don't tell me that you don't know this reason." Saying this, Theodore's mom rushed up, raised her hand, and wanted to slap Elizabeth.
Elizabeth turned her body sideways and said with cold eyes, "I said that I don't know. I came here just to make it clear to you."
Theodore's mom failed to beat her and almost fell to the ground.
"Mom..." Theodore said, "Forget it."
"Forget it?" Theodore's mom stood firm and turned to look at Theodore, "I want to forget it, but this disgusting b*tch doesn't want to let us off. She bullies us again and again! Look at your father. He is still weak, but now he is sitting in the cold wind with us!" After that, she turned around and glared at Elizabeth fiercely, "Elizabeth, don't pretend to be innocent and know nothing. How didn't I know that your heart is so vicious before? Fortunately, Theodore saw your true features. Otherwise, my family would have been destroyed by you long ago!"
Hearing this, Elizabeth really felt it ridiculous, and her voice was even colder as she said, "I said that I really don't know about this matter. Perhaps, it's because you did so many bad things that you've offended someone else!"
When Theodore's father heard this, he turned his head and glared at Elizabeth. His breathing became unstable, and he gasped for air.
"You b*tch, how dare you say this!" Theodore's mom trembled with anger, "Do you know that now we not only can't stay here but also can't be accepted by other hospitals? Who do you think is capable enough to do so?"
Elizabeth frowned, and her heart skipped a beat.
That was right. Who would be so capable?
