Chapter 560 When Draxton Lockwood returned to the estate, Isabella Thompson was waiting at the gate to receive him.
When she saw him get down from the helicopter, Isabella went forward and gave him a gentle hug.
The guards who followed her out were also very excited.
‘Patriarch, has the headman's laboratory really been destroyed?" Spencer Lockwood, who had recovered substantially, was pushed over on a wheelchair over by a helper.
Draxton looked at Spencer and said with a nod, "It's destroyed." The smile on Spencer's face deepened.
Isabella said, 'How can it not be destroyed when the patriarch led the operation in person?" As she spoke, Isabella turned her gaze to the rear and saw the Big Dipper guards carrying stretchers down one after another.
Jake Quillon was on the first stretcher. When Isabella saw the unconscious Jake with an ashen white expression and weak, thin body, her facial expression wavered a little.
Following that was Olivia Lockwood. She used to be a healthy, well-born young lady, but at this moment, she was so thin that she had lost all her looks. Isabella's expression beceven more unpleasant.
Behind them were Keiko Sakurai, Ellen, and Zoey, the three young girls.
The three girls still looked alright. Although they were a little thinner, they had only been captured for a short period of tand so they did not look too terrible.
Isabella said,"Draxton, | think we need to contact the families of these girls. They did not hail from ordinary backgrounds. Doesn't the headman want to fight us? Then let's expand the fighting stage a little wider." Draxton also glanced at the three girls and said, "We'll listen to you, Madam." Isabella shot him a glance before helping Jake and the others to settle down.
Following that, Isabella began to give them medical treatment.

After a moment, Isabella clicked her tongue and said, 'l have to say that although their appearances look a little frightening, the headman will definitely have to adjust the test subjects’ physical conditions to the optimum level if she wanted to perform experiments on them.
‘Therefore, they look quite terrible outwardly, but in fact, their physical indicators are very healthy." Draxton heaved a sigh of relief and asked again, Then why aren't they awake yet?" Isabella thought for a moment. "It's the effect of drugs. | have to concoct smedicine for them. Oh right, there's another discovery. Olivia is pregnant." Draxton was stunned.
Isabella said, 'She's really pregnant this time." Draxton's expression was not relaxed. He looked at Olivia's skinny appearance and thought about how she was still carrying a child. A sense of hostile anger rose in his heart.
Isabella comforted him and said, "Don't be angry. It's the best outcif everyone close to you is safe." Draxton calmed himself down and walked out with Isabella.
Isabella suddenly said, "By the way, has Walter Lockwood woken up yet?" One of the Big Dipper guards approached her and answered, "Walter Lockwood is still sleeping, Ma'am.
' From the tyou gave him the medicine, he still hasn't shown any sign of waking up." Isabella paused for a moment and said, "Let's go take a look." They then changed direction and headed for Walter's room.
On the bed, Walter lay quietly as if he had fallen asleep.
Isabella's gaze was fixed squarely on the other party. Her eyes slowly swept over his body and finally landed on Walter's tightly shut eyes.
'Walter Lockwood!" Isabella called out. "Draxton is here to see you!” ' Ma'am, he can't hear you," said a Big Dipper guard beside her.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Walter's eyelids quivered slightly.
The Big Dipper guard who just spoke was astounded.
He looked at Isabella with a gaze full of admiration and thought to himself, No wonder Mrs. Lockwood is called the Miraculous Doctor. So the Miraculous Doctor can wake people up from an unconscious state with just a few words. She's really different from the others..." Isabella had no idea what that Big Dipper guard was thinking at all. She took a few more steps forward and shouted a few times. Each time, she made sure to mention Draxton's name.
As for Walter, the frequency of his eyelids quivering was getting faster and faster.
Draxton was standing right beside Isabella. His eyes darkened a few shades as his tall body moved to stand quietly in front of Isabella to shield her.
Isabella patted him and gave him a reassuring look.
Isabella continued to shout out Draxton's name. Draxton himself also personally called out, Walter Lockwood, wake up!" Walter's reaction becmore and more agitated, and his entire body trembled. The Big Dipper guards nearby also realized that something was wrong. Their expressions changed, and they shielded Isabella and Draxton vigilantly.
On his end, Draxton shielded Isabella.
Isabella stared at Walter's increasingly vehement reaction. Her eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of her lips revealed a trace of an icy smile.
Just as Draxton called out to Walter again, Walter suddenly sat up in bed. Then, his eyes opened.
In an instant, two beams of silver light shot out from his eyes.
Those were two crystal robots.
As they were moving too fast, the two moving dots of silver light formed two silver streams in the air. One was aimed at Draxton while the other was aimed at Isabella.
Isabella's expression did not change at all. She was already prepared. Two ice needles also shot out concurrently and pierced the two crystal robots in midair in an instant.
Both parties exploded at the stime.

At the stime, Walter's weak voice floated out. "Patriarch, watch out..." He spoke very fast. In fact, he spoke out the moment he sat up abruptly.
However, the crystal robots and Isabella's actions were too fast, so much so that everyone only heard Walter's words after the incident had ended peacefully.
As soon as Walter finished speaking, his body fell backward again.
He lay weakly on the bed, barely breathing, but his eyes were fixed intently on Draxton as he said, ‘Patriarch, I'm useless..." When he saw that Walter was fine, Draxton said, "You're indeed quite useless. Rest well first." Walter gave a bitter laugh and answered solemnly, "Yes, Sir." Then, he turned to look at Isabella. A look of surprise appeared in his eyes as he sized her up.
You must be Mrs. Lockwood, is that correct?” he asked.
Isabella nodded and said, "That's correct. Have a good rest. We'll talk after you have recovered’ Isabella and Draxton did not stay for long. Walter fell asleep again after saying a few words.
Isabella said," Norah Lyons is indeed malicious. She actually tampered with Walter's body. If we weren't on our guard today, we might have fallen into her trap.’ Draxton said, "A dirty, underhand method." Isabella said, "Indeed, that may be so. Norah Lyons knows no bottom line when she carries out her deeds. She is capable of all kinds of devious tricks. We still have to be more careful." As the two of them chatted, they returned to the main building and saw Wesley Lyons staring at the invitations on the table with a grim expression.
Both Isabella and Draxton's hearts skipped a beat. They thought to themselves, "It's here." However, they did not expect the other party to use such a "respectable' channel as sending an invitation.
Isabella picked up one invitation card and looked at it in surprise. "Prince Haddor?" It did not cfrom the headman.
Wesley said icily, "Norah Lyons has been in Southeast Aelinne for so many years. It's impossible that she doesn't have a backer and allies behind her." "In that case, this guy Prince Haddor must be Norah Lyons's ally," Isabella said.
After saying that, she smiled in a teasing fashion.
' Prince Haddor is indeed a good backer. Ordinary people wouldn't dare to offend Norah Lyons if she were to work with him. However, does she have any friends?" Wesley's expression was calm. He even looked at Isabella proudly.
Draxton frowned and asked, Bella, you still have friends in Southeast Aelinne?" When Isabella saw that Draxton's expression was somewhat odd, she quickly said, "We're not friends. He's just a patient, just a patient!"
