Chapter 184
Chapter 184 She Really Fell
Isabella's eyes reddened.
She and her parents were not fated with one another in this life, but she also had no regrets because of her
masters.
Jackson patted her shoulder "Alright, there's no hurry to settle the matter now. Since you're both here, stay for a few days."
At night, Isabella and Draxton were fooling around in bed.
Faint footsteps could be heard in the corridor outside.
Sitting on Draxton, Isabella's ears twitched, and she jumped off the bed. She then leaned against the door and peeked outside.
Draxton looked at his body and gritted his teeth as he walked over
Isabella turned around and gestured for him to keep quiet before pointing outside.
Through the crack in the door, they saw Vanessa wearing a translucent white nightgown with a white lace veil over it and walking barefoot to Jackson's room.
She knocked lightly on the door with one hand and held a soup bowl in the other
Speechless, Draxton followed Isabella and peeked at Vanessa's actions behind the door
Draxton was the dignified Lockwood family patriarch. When had he ever done such a stealthy thing like peeking?
It was already past eleven at night, and Jackson was asleep when a knock on the door awoke him. When he opened the door, he saw Vanessa.
"Vanessa, what are you doing?" Jackson frowned at the scantily clad woman in front of him.
Vanessa looked at him shyly and said, "Jackson, I made you a bowl of soup. Try it."
As she spoke, Vanessa tried to walk into Jackson's room.
Jackson stopped her with his wheelchair and said with a dark expression, "Vanessa, it's the middle of the night. I don't want soup. Go back and sleep." Vanessa looked at him quietly. After a moment of silence, she asked, "Jackson, do you not understand what I
mean?"
Jackson answered with a cold face, "I don't understand, and I don't want to understand. Vanessa, don't forget that you're still a married woman."
Vanessa's expression changed when she heard his answer. "Jackson, you view me with disdain. Since that's the case, I'll divorce my husband tomorrow."
Jackson looked back at her with an unfathomable gaze and said, "Vanessa, we're not young anymore. Don't make a fuss. It won't be good if you wake the children up. Since I promised to take care of you and your daughter, I will not go back on my word. You don't have to do this."
With that, Jackson ignored Vanessa's paled expression and closed the door.
But Vanessa stretched out her hand and squeezed it through the gap in the door. Like when she was a young girl, she angrily stared at Jackson with stubbornness in her eyes.
"Jackson, you should understand that nothing gives Ally and me a greater sense of security than you being my husband and Ally's father. If you reject me, I will leave with Ally tomorrow and live on the streets. It Old Mr Sif catches us, you can collect our corpses."
Jackson's face darkened. He carefully glanced at Isabella's room, not daring to make a sound for fear of waking her up.
This was too embarrassing. If Bella saw this, where would his dignity as her elder be?
But Vanessa was intent on making a scene. By hook or by crook, she would achieve her goal today
Sneering, Isabella opened the door and walked out.
She placed her hands on her hips and swaggered over to the two of them. Jackson's expression immediately
changed.
Seeing her, Vanessa said, "Bella, you came just in time. Look at your Master Vaughn."
Isabella interrupted her and said, "Aunt Falkona, why are you here in the middle of the night? I remember that Master Vaughn settled you and Alanna in another villa. Did Master Vaughn invite you over?" An awkward look flashed across Vanessa's eyes.
However, she gritted her teeth and was about to speak when Isabella interrupted her again. "Aunt Falkona, why are you wearing so little? Don't you feel cold? You have to keep warm when you're old. Otherwise, you'll fall sick easily"
Vanessa's face turned green.
What did Isabella mean by old? Was she old?
Isabella continued, "Aunt Falkona, although you are a few years younger than Master Vaughn, he can still find a young and pretty lady if he is looking for a wife. It's unseemly for you to appear in front of him dressed like this....
Vanessa's face alternated between green and red. She finally couldn't take the embarrassment anymore when she saw that Draxton had also come out.
However, Isabella's expression changed. She said to Draxton, "Draxton, quickly go back into the room. Someone is naked here. What if you see something you shouldn't see? Although Aunt Falkona is old, she's still a woman..."
Draxton answered cooperatively, "Bella, don't worry I didn't see anything. I won't even look at a young woman, what more a lady of Ms. Falkona's age."
"Hey, Draxton, how can you say that? Leave Aunt Falkona with some dignity," Isabella said.
"Alright." Draxton turned around and closed the door.
Isabella turned around and shielded Jackson behind her while looking at Vanessa with a faint smile.
"I almost forgot that you are not yet divorced, Ms. Falkona. Yet, you're dressed like this to meet another man. Your husband must feel like a cuckold..."
Even though Vanessa was thick-skinned, she finally couldn't take the humiliation anymore. Embarrassed and with her face burning red, she turned around and ran.
Isabella shouted behind her, "Aunt Falkona, run slower. Your arms and legs are old. It won't be good if you fall...."
As soon as Isabella finished speaking, Vanessa fell.
The soup bowl in her hand was smashed, and the soup inside leaked out.
The smell of the soup was strong. Even from a distance, Isabella could still distinguish the soup's ingredients.
The soup contained Deer Whip, Eucommia, Panax notoginseng, Achyranthes bidentata, and Cistanche deserticola..
Isabella's expression immediately turned cold. It was apparent what this woman's intentions were, serving Master Vaughn such a nutritious soup in the middle of the night.
How little did she think of Master Vaughn's abilities for her to bring him such nourishing soup?
Master Vaughn injured his leg, not his... Isabella coughed. Her thoughts had sidetracked.
Isabella had to call an ambulance in the middle of the night.
The reason was none other than that Vanessa had broken a leg.
Isabella was Miraculous Doctor, but Vanessa was a woman she didn't like. She definitely wouldn't waste a second of her time treating Vanessa.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
Isabella directly sent Vanessa to the hospital.
