Chapter 208 Chapter 208 Hmm , it was probably just a tripped breaker .
Everything should be fine now Damon wasnt paying much attention to whist Lela had said as his attention was all on her .
He simply remarked , Its getting late .
You should all go back and rest Okay Leia nodded with a sweet smile .
Softly , she added , Damon , Bennett , Noelle , good night .
Just then , a servant came upstairs with the medicine .
She was surprised to see all the Anderson siblings gathered at the staircase and quickly greeted them .
Oh , Mr.
Bennett , Mr.
Damon .
Miss Leia Anderson , Miss Noelle Anderson , why are you all standing here ! Is something wrong No.
Leia replied with a smile .
The power went out just now , so we came to check The servant chuckled and said proudly , I was in the kitchen making medicine for Mr.
Vincent when the lights suddenly went out I figured you all might be scared , so I rushed to wake up Paul .
It will be fixed soon .
Maria , I know we can always count on you Leia praised and then asked , Did i that affect my dads s medicine ? J Maria reassured her , Dont worry , Miss Leia .
I was using a stovetop , so the power outage didnt affect anything You know me .
I always do things properly . Dont worry .
Thats good Leia breathed a relief and said , I hope Dads headache gets better soon .
It definitely will Marias gaze then shifted to Noelle .
She beamed and flattered , Ever since Mr.
Vincent started taking the medicine Miss Noelle prepared , he hardly ever complains about headaches anymore .
That ancient recipe of yours really is a treasure ! Miss Noelle , youre so amazing and talented at such a young age .
You truly live up to the name of the Anderson family ! Maria was known as the chatty one in the villa .
If anyone engaged her in conversation , she could talk all day without repeating herself .
Damon was clearly losing patience .
He frowned and said .
Arent you supposed to deliver the medicine ? Get going Oh dear , youre right .
I got so caught up chatting that I nearly forgot .
Maria chuckled .
Well then , Mr.
Bennett , Mr.
Damon , Miss Leia , Miss Noelle .
Ill be off .
Alright .
Leia said with a smile .
Go ahead Yes Maria nodded .
After the servant was left , Damon said in mild irritation , She talks way too much .
We should have the butler keep her in check .
However , Lela put on a gentle and understanding smile , saying , Damon , she doesnt mean any harm .
Dont be too hard on her .
Damon glanced at Leia , who looked bright and cheerful , as if she meant every word .
Damon couldnt help but wonder , Am I overthinking things ? Has Leia really decided to let things go and get along with Noelle ?
If so , that would be for the best .
But why am I still feeling uneasy ? Something about Lela just seems ....
off .
As these doubts lingered in his mind , a sudden crash came from Vincent and Kimberlys ro The sound of shattering porcelain echoed through the hall , followed by Kimberlys panicked voice .
Vincent Vincent , are you okay ? Ah ! Blood ! Blood ! Vincent ! Dont scare me ! Somebody ! Somebody help ! Hearing Kimberlys panicked cries , Noelle and the others froze for a second before rushing over .
When they arrived at the bedroom , they found Maria standing there , completely dumbfounded .
Her chubby face had gone deathly pale , and she looked unterly stunned .
She shook her head frantically while mumbling .
No I dont know anything ! I dont know anything ! On the other side , Kimberly was sobbing uncontrollably , holding Vincent tightly in her arms .
Tears streamed down her face as she wiped away the blood .
Vincent Vincent , dont scare met Whats happening to you ? Vincent was sti vomiting blood , which was gushing from his mouth as if an endless flow . His pajamas were already soaked in red .
It was a horrifying sigh 1/2 5 55 AM Chapter208 Leis was shocked by the scene and her palms drenched Although she desperately wished for Vincents death , watching him vomit blood so violently made her tremble with fear an in cold sweat .
She mumbled , Why is it so serious ? Noelle quickly rushed over to the panicked Kimberly and instructed , Mom , dont hold Dad like that .
Lay him on his stomach on the bed .
O okay , okay .
Noelle , you must save him ! Seeing Noelle , Kimberly clung to her like a lifeline and followed her instructions immediately .
Meanwhile , Damon suddenly walked up to Maria .
Grabbing her by the wrist with a dark and menacing glare , he asked coldly, What happened ? Why is my dad vomiting blood ?
What did you put in the medicine ! Out with it Ahh Maria was petrified .
She frantically shook her head and said , No ! I didnt do anything ! Mr.
Damon , I swear Im innocent ! Ive been poparing the medicine following Miss Noelles prescription Suddenly , Leia turned to Maria and scolded , Maria , what do you mean by that ? Huh ? Maria was dumbfounded .
Leia continued with a stern expression , Are you implying that Noelle harmed her own father ? You did something wrong , and now you want to blame her ! Just admit it already ! Why did you try to murder my dad !! If you dont confess , well send you to jail ! Marias heart nearly stopped when she heard Leias accusation .
She thought .
Tm just a servant .
Why am I suddenly accused of murder ! And jail ? These people are heartless .
The moment something goes wrong .
they want to make me a scapegoat .
This is outrageous ! Terrified at the thought of going to prison , Maria lost all restraint and blurted out , Miss Leia , I swear Im innocent ! I have nothing against Mr.
Vincent .
Why would I want to kill him ? Bus Miss Noelle ... you all treated her horribly at first ! You even made her stay in a storeroom !
Everyone saw that ! Do you think treating her nicely now changes anything ! Do you think the damage you caused can just be undone ! If you ask me , maybe Miss Noelles prescription was the problem.Maybe shes been planning this all along , waiting for the perfect moment to get her revenge ! Ad-free membership subscription
