Chapter 335

After saying that, he went upstairs without hesitation. Isabelle happened to come over and, seeing Freya’s figure going upstairs, she asked the servant, “What’s going on?”

The servant whispered, “Ms. Greene came; Mrs. Whitaker didn’t let her in and even asked to throw away all the gifts she left behind.”

Isabelle’s heart relaxed, and she smiled lightly, “Just throw it away; the Whitaker family indeed doesn’t lack this kind of thing.” She was about to go out, so she walked out.

Ophelia had brought too many gifts, which made it difficult for the servants to handle. As she was passing by, one of the servants accidentally knocked over a box. A beautifully packaged hundred-year-old ginseng fell out!

Isabelle paused her steps, her gaze flickering slightly. She suddenly said, “Don’t bother throwing them out so hard; you guys can take these things and divide them yourselves.”

The servants were surprised and said, “Thank you very much, Ms. Whitaker!”

Isabelle smiled lightly and casually picked up the old ginseng. As she turned around and walked back, she said, “Ophelia came and even brought gifts, but remember not to mention it in front of Grandpa and Grandma to avoid upsetting them. After all, as you all know, Grandpa and Grandma no longer recognize this granddaughter.”

The servants responded. Someone saw Isabelle taking the ginseng, but those who knew better didn’t speak up. In the Whitaker family, Ophelia was already a thing of the past, and Isabelle was the favored young lady of the Whitaker family!

That night, Isabelle personally cooked ginseng soup for Shaun. Shaun took a sip and was instantly amazed, “This ginseng must be at least five hundred years old! Where did you get it from?”

Such a good thing; it’s not that the Whitaker family doesn’t have the background, but it’s not so much that it can be casually used to make soup!

The usually cold and aloof Isabelle was obedient and submissive in front of Shaun. “I was always concerned about my grandfather’s poor health while I was away, so I found a way to ask someone for help.”

Shaun was instantly moved and happy, looking at her affectionately. “Isabelle is thoughtful. With such a filial granddaughter, it wouldn’t be a problem for me to live another twenty years!”

The rest of the Whitaker family also watched Isabelle with admiration and love. Helena, in particular, embraced her tightly, as if she were her own heart. Richard praised and then said gently, “You were outside, and the family was afraid that you would be wronged. Next time, don’t ask for help like this. We should take care of it.”

Others nodded in agreement. Isabelle, with a filial appearance, shook her head and said, “As long as it can make my grandfather’s health better, what does it matter if I suffer a little?”

The Whitaker family was even more grateful. The whole family, with only Lenora, picked at the food in the bowl with chopsticks, absent-mindedly. She glanced at the servant beside her and wanted to ask if Ophelia had come today, but the words stopped at her lips, and she swallowed cautiously.

The rest of the family didn’t like Ophelia. If she were to speak up, her parents would definitely get angry. Like her, Xander was also feeling a bit off.

After dinner, the family dispersed, and Xander called out to Isabelle, “Five years ago, was that medicine sent by you to me?”

Five years ago? Medicine? Isabelle’s eyes flickered slightly. Five years ago, she remembered that Xander was filming in the mountains when he was bitten by an unknown snake. It was only when someone…
