Caroline enviously looked at Audrey accepting the jewelry box.
The jewelry was nothing to the Cordova family. At most, it was just a drop in the bucket. But... that necklace was
extremely expensive for ordinary people.
Not to mention the Kashmir sapphire on the necklace. Even if one had the money, one might not be able to buy it.
However, Kylee thought that Audrey was Elliana, so Kylee gave the precious necklace to Audrey.
That necklace belonged to Elliana. Not this fraud.
Audrey took something that belonged to Elliana, Caroline's daughter away. This could not be tolerated.
Everyone praised Audrey for being very beautiful wearing the necklace. However, Caroline felt that Audrey was so
hideous. Audrey couldn't be compared with Elliana whatsoever.
After everyone praised Audrey, Kylee's gaze fell on Caroline's face.
"Caroline, doesn't Elliana look good wearing this necklace?" Kylee questioned Caroline.
Caroline frowned. Facing Kylee's query, she could only answer against her heart, "Yes, she looks good."
Kylee nodded, satisfied.
Seeing Kylee turn her head away, the smile on Caroline's face suddenly disappeared. Her eyes stared fixedly at
Audrey's neck, and her eyes almost burst out with fire. Caroline wished she could immediately tear the necklace off
Audrey's neck.
Audrey could clearly feel Caroline's hostility toward her. Audrey had seized everything that belonged to Elliana. It
was only natural that Caroline hated her.
After dinner, everyone went to the roof to enjoy the night view.
Everyone was standing in the hanging garden and looked at the round moon above them. The servant suddenly
came over and asked Caroline, "Mrs. Cordova, should we bring the desert up now?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCaroline nodded. "OK."
After a while, the servant brought the desert over.
Audrey brought the desert. Everyone ate it and continued to enjoy the view.
Because the desert was brought by Audrey, Caroline disliked it and therefore she did not even have a bite.
In the middle of admiring the view, Kylee, who was sitting beside Audrey, suddenly grabbed Audrey's wrist.
Audrey felt that something was wrong. When she turned around and saw Kylee's pale face, she immediately
supported Kylee worriedly. "Kylee, what's wrong?"
Caroline was sitting on the other side of Kylee. When she heard Audrey's voice, she quickly supported Kylee as well.
"Kylee, are you feeling unwell?"
Kylee gasped for breath, trembling, and said, "My... stomach... stomach... hurts... so bad."
The others noticed and quickly gathered around.
Bryson looked at Kylee's face and scolded the servant at the side, "What are you waiting for? Call Dr. Cater
immediately."
"Yes!"
Bryson turned around, wanting to carry Kylee away from the spot. Just as he turned around, he saw that Audrey
had already picked Kylee up and was walking downstairs.
Bryson stopped Audrey. "I'll carry her."
Audrey shook her head and said firmly, "I'll do it. You lead the way in front."
Seeing that Audrey insisted, Bryson compromised. Audrey carried Kylee and followed behind Bryson.
Audrey was petite but she walked extremely fast while carrying Kylee. Soon, Audrey carried Kylee to Kylee's room.
However, Kylee had already fainted.
When Audrey put Kylee on the bed and just stood up, Caroline pushed Audrey away.
Kylee was kind of heavy. Since Audrey had a hard time carrying Kylee along the way, Audrey was a little tired now.
After being pushed by Caroline, Audrey staggered back two steps before she could barely stand.
Bryson frowned when he saw that Audrey almost lost her balance and fell.
Madisyn rushed to the side of the bed and held Kylee's hand.
"Kylee, Kylee, what's wrong? Where are you feeling unwell?"
Caroline stood beside Madisyn and comforted him, "Kylee should be fine. Don't worry too much. When Dr. Cater
comes, we will know what's wrong."
Brendan lived very close to the Cordova Mansion. After the servant called him, Brendan quickly rushed here with his
medicine chest.
As soon as Brendan came in, everyone immediately gave way to him. Only Madisyn and Caroline were left in the
room. The others were all driven out by Brendan.
Audrey stood outside Kylee's room and paced back and forth with a frown.
She was worried about Kylee's health.
Audrey didn't want anything to happen to Kylee. Audrey's heart seemed to be gripped by an invisible hand, so tight
that it could burst at any time.
When Audrey walked to Bryson's side, Bryson grabbed her hand and held it in his hand, comforting her silently.
On the other side, Jean also leaned in Dean's arms with a worried face.
Only Simon was alone.
Simon felt that his presence was a little superfluous.
However, now that Kylee was in the bedroom, he did not know how Kylee was doing. He did not dare to leave and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcould only continue to suffer outside the bedroom.
Time seemed to pass very slowly. Everyone waited nervously. About twenty minutes later, the bedroom door was
finally opened.
When everyone saw that the door was opened, they all gathered around.
Audrey was the first to grab Brendan's wrist. "Dr. Cater, how is Kylee? What happened to her?"
Brendan said leisurely, "Madam Cordova has become stable. She will be fine soon."
Audrey heaved a sigh of relief.
Bryson asked, "Why did Kylee faint?"
Jean frowned. "Dr. Cater, did Kylee have a relapse?"
Brendan shook his head.
"No. Madam Cordova ate something bad. It was mild food poisoning."
"Poisoned?" Audrey caught the key point in Brendan's words. "You just said that Kylee was poisoned. What was the
cause? Was it because of the food she ate?"
"Well... I need to examine the food that Madam Cordova ate today to confirm."
Jean nodded at Dean. Dean made a "please" gesture. "Dr. Cater, please follow me."
"Alright."
Dean and Brendan went to examine the food they ate before.
Everyone went to the room to check out Kylee. Then, they let her rest in the room. After that, people all went to the
living room to wait for the result.
Everyone waited in the living room for ten minutes. Then Dean led Brendan back to the living room.
Madisyn said with a gloomy face, "Dr. Cater, have you found out what the poison was?"
Brendan took out an oil paper bag, which contained a bite of the dessert.
