Chapter 336
Sent him medicine that he was able to successfully overcome the danger. But when asked later about who gave it, he remained tight-lipped, which remains a mystery to the Whitaker family to this day. How did he suddenly ask her like thatโฆ?
โWhy did Xander suddenly ask about this?โ she asked calmly. Listening to her words, there was no denial in her tone. Xanderโs expression became complicated as he confirmed once again. โSo it was really you? You really saved my life back then?โ
Isabelleโs mind wandered, and she quickly forced a faint smile, looking somewhat helpless. โHow did Xander know?โ Thatโs an admission! Was it really her?
Xander sighed, โSince it was you, why didnโt you tell me back then?โ
Isabelle said, โIt was just a small matter; we were family, right?โ
After a moment, Xander smiled contentedly and said, โYes, we were family.โ He touched her head, and his tone was gentler than before, saying, โI want to thank Isabelle. If it werenโt for you back then, I probably wouldnโt be able to stand here today.โ
Five years have passed, and he can still remember the danger he faced back then. At that time, he thought he was going to die, but unexpectedly, the hospital received a package of herbal medicine sent by courier, which brought him back from the brink of deathโฆ
Chapter 331
Isabelle obediently smiled and said, โI am satisfied as long as I see Xander is fine.โ
Lenora passed by not far away and saw the intimate atmosphere between the two people. She pursed her lips unhappily. Ophelia was supposed to be standing here today. She turned around and walked away, going back to her room to call Ophelia.
โOphelia, didnโt you say you were going to visit Grandpa? Why didnโt you come?โ
Thinking about Opheliaโs situation, she felt sorry for Ophelia. โAfter today, Grandpa and the others will definitely like Isabelle more. You donโt know, she specially made ginseng soup for Grandpa today. I heard she went to great lengths to get a hundred-year-old ginseng from someoneโฆโ
On the other side, an apartment. Opheliaโs eyes narrowed suddenly, โCentennial ginseng?โ
โYeah!โ Lenora said, talking about what happened during dinner, feeling worried and frustrated, โThey say itโs been five hundred years, and my grandparents were so happy, saying she was very filialโฆโ
โI went there today, but couldnโt get in,โ Ophelia interrupted her, โbut I left many gifts, including one for you. Did you see it?โ
โGift?โ Lenora wondered, โI didnโt see it! Did you come? I havenโt heard anything!โ
Ophelia coldly bit her lip and said, โI knew.โ
After hanging up the phone, she immediately instructed Graham, โTomorrow, you go find out where the gifts I left at the Whitakerโs villa went.โ
Graham responded. The next morning, he immediately went to take care of this matter, and when he came back, he told Ophelia, โThe servant at the Whitakerโs villa said that everything had been thrown away.โ
Ophelia just laughed, the smile not reaching her eyes. โIs that so? Well, Iโm afraid youโll have to ask them where they threw it all, because Iโm going to go and pick up my things today.โ
โWhat needs to be picked up?โ Winford came down from upstairs and happened to hear a sentence. He was dressed casually, with his sleeves rolled up, revealing a strong and muscular forearm. With deep and intense gaze, a powerful and dangerous aura emanated, captivating and alluring.
Ophelia ran over and skillfully hugged his waist, pressing her lips downward. She said, โYesterday, I went to the Whitakerโs villa. No one went in, but the gifts were all left behind. The Whitakerโs villaโs servant said that all those gifts were thrown away without any of them being kept.โ
