“What’s the matter?”
Natalie obediently gave the pills to Sebastian.
Sebastian sighed in his mind that Natalie was really too forgetful.
“Don’t you remember? You took your medicine before I headed out to fetch dinner.”
“But Elizabeth just toldthat the nurse asked her to bringthe medicine.I think the doctor must have prescribed new
medication for me.”
Just now, Natalie had thought that Elizabeth was really so thoughtful to deliver her the medicine.
Sebastian still had his guard up.
After going through many dangerous situations previously, he happened to be very vigilant now.
“Draco was going to take you to Milan Fashion Week and this event is very important.These two colleagues of yours may be
jealous and went out of their way to secretly sabotage you, which went on to cause your illness.You’d better be more careful from
now on if they bring you anything.”
“But everyone seems so nice to me.”
Natalie was a newcomer to Draco’s studio.She didn’t want to be suspicious toward any of her colleagues.Besides, maybe she
got sick simply because she ate something that had gone bad.
With a mocking smile on his face, Sebastian said, “Just because they seem nice, doesn’t mean they’re really nice people.Well,
that means I have to be out for a while.”
Natalie thought that what Sebastian said made sense.
She asked with curiosity in her voice, “What are you going to do now?”
While stroking the pills he was holding, Sebastian said, “I’ll go find more evidence.I’m going to the nurse station to ask for one
more medication.Also, don’t eat anything that others bring to you when I’m not around.Let’s talk smore about it when I
return.”
After that, Sebastian took the pills away for tests.
*******
In the evening, Natalie was chatting with Johanna over the phone.
Johanna asked with concern in her voice, “I heard that you’re going to Milan.How’s the trip going? Is it fun over there?”
Natalie didn’t dare to tell Johanna that she had becsick again.
“Well, it’s not bad.I’ll bring you a gift when I return, Mom.”
Johanna was overjoyed to hear that.
After Natalie hung up, she got a call from Sebastian.
“Who have you been talking to just now?”
Natalie was really amused by his possessiveness.
“I was just talking to my mother.Have you found anything suspicious about the medication?”
“Yes, there’s indeed something wrong with the medicine.It looks like the powder in one of the capsules was secretly replaced
with cathartics.You haven’t gotten better from your illness yet.If you continue taking this, you will go on to have worse diarrhea.”
At the thought that the medicine was brought to her by Elizabeth, Natalie felt very uncomfortable in her heart.
She asked suspiciously, “Was it Elizabeth who replaced the medication?”
If that was the case, maybe it was also Elizabeth who had put cathartics in Natalie’s breakfast secretly and made her suffer from
diarrhea.
“We can’t be absolutely certain now,” Sebastian said in a calm voice.
“Currently, she’s only a suspect.”
After hanging up, Natalie couldn’t let this matter go.She kept thinking about how to confirm her suspicions On the second
morning, Elizabeth cto visit Natalie once again.
“I brought you schicken soup.This will be good for your stomach.”
Elizabeth cin with a food container at this time.Her face was both expressionless and calm.It sounded like she was
concerned about Natalie a great deal, but there appeared to be no warmth in her eyes.
“Thank you.I’m thinking about what to have for breakfast right now.”
Natalie smiled as if there was nothing wrong.She had heard it from Rosa that Elizabeth seldom socialized with other colleagues.
Why did Elizabeth cto see Natalie again? The more Natalie mulled it over in her head, the more she suspected Elizabeth.
The first tshe chere with Rosa, Natalie had thought Elizabeth conly because Rosa made her.
But why did Elizabeth cfor the second ttoday? She must have ssort of ulterior motive.
“Well, the soup may still be a little hot. Letopen the lid for you “ Elizabeth proceeded to open the food container.
The chicken soup was garnished with a few green onions, appearing very appetizing.However, Natalie wasn’t paying attention to
the soup at all.She lifted a corner of her quilt, got out of bed and put on her shoes.
“Where are you headed? You don’t look very well.Lethelp you.”
Elizabeth quickly in her eyes happened to be very serious right then.
With a gentle smile on her face, Natalie pointed her finger to the bathroom in the ward and said in a very weak voice, “I want to
go to the bathroom.”
Elizabeth nodded and didn’t say another word.She carefully helped Natalie head over to the bathroom.
Once they reached the door of the bathroom, Natalie suddenly fainted with no given warning.
“Natalie!” Elizabeth exclaimed as she panicked.
In fact, Natalie only pretended to faint.
Now that there were only two people in the ward, if Elizabeth wanted to hurt Natalie, she would definitely do nothing to help her
out.
In addition, Elizabeth might even do something secretly to Natalie while she was unconscious.It was obvious that Elizabeth was
very anxious at this time.She did everything she could to help Natalie up.
Elizabeth was slender and a little on the thin side.
Due to that, it was extremely difficult for her to lift Natalie up.
After a few minutes of this, Elizabeth finally helped Natalie over to the bed.She tucked Natalie in and hurried out to get the
attention of the doctor.
Natalie opened her eyes and peeked out of the ward.
This was strange.
Elizabeth didn’t appear to be acting.She couldn’t pretend to be unconscious anymore.
If the doctor walked in and found out that she had only pretended to faint, it would be very embarrassing.
With her elbows supporting her body, Natalie leaned against the pillow on her bed as if she had just regained consciousness.
A few minutes later, Elizabeth hurried into the ward with the doctor right behind her.
Seeing that Natalie was awake now, Elizabeth cover to the bed in a rush and asked, “Didn’t you just faint? When did you
wake up? How are you feeling right now?”
Natalie asked in a dazed, “Did I really faint just now? I thought I was in bed the entire time.”
There was no other expression on Elizabeth’s face other than worry.
She turned to look at the doctor and said, “Please check if she’s all right.”
