“Beatrice, we're counting on you in the future!”
“I think Lord Campbell will ask for your daughter's hand in marriage very soon!”
“Don't forget about us once that happens!”
Beatrice was still in a daze.
Jennifer's mother, Linda, twitched her lips out of jealousy. “No need to feel smug! Tyrone likes our Jennifer!”
Kevin was also seething with envy and
jealousy. “What a stroke of luck that someone like Lord Campbell will fall in love with Ysabel!”
Beatrice stammered in response, “You guys have overthought. Ysabel doesn't know who Lord Campbell is...”
As she was speaking, a nurse pushed Ysabel’s bed out and said, “She can be transferred to the general ward now.”
Lying on the bed, Ysabel had regained her consciousness. She was very weak, and her lips were pale. “Mom...”
Beatrice's tears streamed down her cheeks again.
The Stern family began wagging their tongues as though they were out of their minds.
“Oh my goodness, Ysabel! You're finally awake! We were so worried about you!”
“Yes. We didn't sleep for the whole night!”
“Ysabel, tell me the truth. Do you know Lord Campbell?”
Ysabel was stunned.
Lord Campbell? Isn't that Donald?
“Yes, I know him,” she answered
feebly.
Then, she felt drowsy and wanted to fall asleep again.
“Oh f*ck! Our speculation is correct!”
“Lord Campbell is in love with Ysabel as expected!”
“No wonder!”
The crowd suddenly became sensational. What a glory it is to be liked by Lord Campbell!
Someone piped up, “Who was the one who helped you guys solve the problem with Julian back then?”
Ysabel felt her eyelids quivering as she replied, “Lord Campbell.”
