“ The housekeeper is off duty , so she went home .”
“ Did you go home ? Why did she go home ? _ My sister-in-
law raised her voice in utter displeasure . “ Linda is another ! How could she give her the day off at suc This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
h a time ? _
“ Why not ? _ Isabel scoffed . _ “ Are you saying that Linda has to ask your permission before giving th
e housekeeper time off ? ”
His tone was stern , leaving Pamela momentarily stunned . She then instinctively looked away to the be
d , only to see me lying there , motionless . As she was no match for Isabel , she had no choice but to e
xplain herself , saying _: “ That ‘s not what I meant . _ It’s just that mom and dad have n’t even had bre
akfast at this time ”
It seemed her parents would n’t have food if there was n’t a maid in the
house. Isabel was n’t me , so she naturally wouldn’t let this matter go . “ Pâmela , you ‘re not a
child anymore , are you ? Don’t tell me you ca n’t even prepare thebreakfast for your parents ? _ _ ”
“Er … ” Pamela stammered , not knowing how to
respond . When she poked her head into my room and saw me still unresponsive , she finally realized s
omething was wrong . _ “ Miss Lima , what is wrong with Linda ? ”
“ Oh , are you worried about Linda ? Does anyone in
this family really treat you decently ? Isabel looked at her coldly . “ Linda owes a debt to her family or s
omething that she is bullied and mistreated by her family , so much so that sheAre
you treated like a maid when you are sick ? Is this how you normally treat her ?
“ Is Linda sick ? Pamela asked in surprise , making it clear that she did n’t believe I was sick . After
all , it was quite a coincidence that I got sick at
that time . Probably suspecting it was all pretense on my part , she dashed into the room.with an extre
mely worried expression . Isabel didn’t stop her either , allowing her to approach my bedside . When Pa
mela looked at me , she asked , “ Beautiful , how are you feeling ? ” “ My head hurts … I feel nauseous
_ _… and I’m weak from the fever , ” I replied weakly .
Upon hearing my words , Pamela immediately placed her hand on my forehead , and the heat radiating
from me visibly stunned her for a moment . _ Obviously , it never crossed her mind that I might be reall
y sick . She then looked atElizabeth immediately . “ Miss Lima , did
you tell my brother that Linda is sick ?”
“ Is your brother not busy with work ? _ How could he still have the
energy to worry about his wife ? Isabel scoffed . “ When he married her , he swore he would love Linda
, but what happened now ? _ nobody really cares _when she is sick ! ”
Coughing lightly , I
mumbled weakly , “ Isabel ! Don’t say that . Carlos is just busy , but he ‘s really good to me . ”
“ Stop making excuses for him . Men are all idiots , and I ‘ve seen enough to come to that conclusion . ”
As she spoke , Isabel picked up her cell phone and called again . “ Why are n’t they here yet ? _ ”
As she spoke,
the doorbell rang . Pamela didn’t dare confront Isabel anymore , so she ran and opened the door . As
soon as the door opened , several people rushed in . All these people worked with Isabel ‘s family , and
Isabel then _ _he advised to help me to get up and send me to the hospital .
As the commotion was really too loud to be ignored , my father-
in- law could not continue hiding in his room . So he opened the door and walked
out with mock surprise on his face . “ What ‘s going on here ? Is Linda sick ?”
