Ex-Wife Don't Leave, Love Is Coming Again! novel Chapter 781

Meanwhile, at the Farwell residence, Catalina had not slept for almost the entire night.

Last night, ever since Lucian brought Estella away, Catalina's body began to feel itchy. However, she did not overthink the condition and planned to continue sleeping.

Unexpectedly, after some time, the itchiness worsened, rendering her unable to fall asleep.

She endured the discomfort until the following day. Upon waking up, Catalina noticed her body was covered with red spots similar to Estella's.

A few other housekeepers who were more closely acquainted with Catalina came over and checked on her. A short while later, their bodies started to itch too.

Catalina swiftly realized the illness was contagious. She immediately instructed everyone not to establish physical contact with one another and arranged for those uninfected people to stay in the courtyard.

Only after coming up with a simple plan to sort out the predicament at home did she remember to contact Lucian to report the circumstances to him.

Just as she took out her phone, Catalina saw his car driving into the house's compound.

Everyone stepped backward and watched while Lucian parked and got out of the vehicle.

“Mr. Farwell, Ms. Estella's disease is contagious. You...” Catalina moved forward and expressed her concern to Lucian while putting up with her body's discomfort.

She had served the Farwell family for many years and was considered one of the few to witness Lucian and Estella's growth. She had long since regarded them as her family.

Seeing how Lucian carried Estella in his arms when they left the house last night, Catalina assumed he would be infected too. To her surprise, he seemed completely fine.

Lucian sized her up while wearing a solemn expression. “How many people have contracted the disease?”

She regained her senses and recalled the number of infected personnel before reporting, “Approximately four to five people. I've asked them to remain inside the house. Those staying in the courtyard are the unaffected group.”
