Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 549

“Serena, you go get washed up. I’ll go check on Isabella.”

Serena nodded.

After Catherine left, Serena closed the door.

She subconsciously glanced back at her big, lace-trimmed bed, at the spot where the man had just been lying.

Her fingers curled reflexively.

That shameless fox.

***

Half an hour later.

Isabella was wrapped in a thick blanket, leaning weakly against the living room sofa. Her face was flushed an unnatural red from a high fever, and she let out a suppressed cough from time to time.

She was hooked up to an IV drip, and the corners of her eyes were red.

She was a pitiful sight.

Catherine sat beside her, her expression a mixture of sympathy and helplessness.

Just a short while ago, she had knocked on Isabella’s door, but there was no response. She assumed Isabella was trying to use this tactic to avoid being sent to the suburban villa, so she had patiently prepared to talk things over with her.

Sending Isabella to the villa wasn’t about giving up on her as an adopted daughter. It was to give her space to calm down, reflect on her situation, and adjust her attitude. Once she had figured things out, Catherine would naturally bring her back.

But after knocking for a while with no answer, Catherine immediately had Alfred get the key.

When they opened the door, they found Isabella flushed with fever, sprawled deliriously on the floor, seemingly struggling to get to the door. She was unconsciously calling out for her mother.
