Chapter 192

She sat in a wheelchair. Although there was an elevator upstairs, it was still not safe up there, and he didn’t feel at ease letting her go up by herself without accompanying her. Hearing the care hidden beneath his domineering demeanor, Ophelia’s eyes gently curved, and she rubbed her head against his palm, responding in a soft and delicate voice, “I know!”

After speaking, he glided the wheelchair, pulling Lenora towards the garden. Once out of Winford and Glenda’s sight, the timid Lenora finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then immediately crouched down in front of Ophelia.

“Cousin, where is your foot injury? Let me take a look!”

Seeing her worried and anxious appearance, Ophelia felt a warmth in her heart.

“It’s nothing, I just twisted my ankle accidentally; it’s not serious. Did you come all the way here for this?”

“Was it really not serious? I saw the video someone posted in the group. If it weren’t for my cousin’s husband reacting quickly, you would definitely have fallen off the stage!”

Lenora took a leave of absence and was not at school, but the school celebration was such a big event that it was impossible for her not to know about it. She heard that her cousin was injured and was hurriedly carried away by her cousin’s husband, which scared her, so she rushed over to see what was going on.

At first, she went to the hospital, but she was a step too late; Ophelia had already left the hospital and gone to Sunset Vista. Ophelia saw that she was indeed worried, so she propped her feet up and let her examine them carefully.

“It really wasn’t serious. The doctor said that resting for two days would be enough. If you don’t believe it, just take a look.”

Lenora gently furrowed her delicate brows, as if she were dealing with some important research, and seriously examined her feet for quite a while. In the end, she finally believed her words and stood up from the ground.

“That Elva was really too much!” she said indignantly.

Ophelia waved her hand casually and said, “Elva has already received her comeuppance, so there’s no need to mention her again.”

He asked, “What did you take leave for these past two days?”

Hearing her talk about this, Lenora’s mood suddenly soured, and she forced herself to hide it, not wanting her to notice.

But Ophelia’s eyes were too clever; how could they be deceived? She narrowed her eyes and lowered her voice, saying, “What’s going on? Tell me the truth! Is someone bullying you?”

Seeing her cousin care for her so much, Lenora’s eyes turned red, and she said in a muffled voice, “No…”

She lowered her head and said, “I took a leave of absence to participate in a program.”

“Participated in the program?”

Ophelia remembered that in her past life, her cousin had entered the entertainment industry. However, despite her good family background and having a top-tier older brother, she had been in the entertainment industry for so many years and still remained an obscure eighteen-line actress. However, later on, it seemed that something had happened to her, and suddenly she was embroiled in scandals, even facing a nationwide online harassment campaign, with people demanding that she leave the entertainment industry.

At that time, she saw these messages online and was extremely anxious. She originally wanted to secretly go find her cousin to ask her what had happened and see if she could help come up with a solution. However, before she had the chance, something happened to her, and she died unexpectedly on the street…

I didn’t know what happened to my cousin after she died. Recalling the memories from her past life, Ophelia felt a heavy weight in her heart.

Coming back to her senses, she asked, “Did something unhappy happen while participating in the program?”

Lenora concealed her expression and shook her head, “No…”

Seeing that she seemed unwilling to speak, Ophelia’s gaze dimmed, and she planned to ask Winford for help later to find out if she had been bullied.

To go along with her wishes, I temporarily set aside the topic and instead asked a question that had been in my heart since my past life—

“Nora, I remember you said when you were a child that your dream was to become a doctor and that you were very interested in that field. How did you end up thinking about going into the entertainment industry?”

At that time, Lenora always followed her mother, saying that she wanted to be her mother’s student and, in the future, to become a revered divine doctor like her mother. Over the years, she had drifted apart from her uncle’s family, and she didn’t know when her cousin had set her sights on the entertainment industry.
