Chased Her Around After Breaking off His Engagement by F BOY's DOLL

Chapter 649: Ran a Fever

“Even if Mr Lisa found any evidence, I will insist it was my idea. It wouldn’t involve you,” Scarlet reassured Cecilia.

Scarlet’s unwavering loyalty deeply moved Cecilia. “With you by my side, Scarlet, Isabella would have known the

consequences of crossing me!”

At the thought of Isabella, a glint of cruelty flashed in Scarlet’s eyes. “Oh, by the way… In private, when there was

no one else around, you didn’t have to be polite to Isabella,” Scarlet advised.

Before, they had been polite to her face, but now they shouldn’t have expected any mercy if they were alone.

“Don’t worry, Scarlet. I wouldn’t be polite to her anymore,” Cecilia declared, a sense of revenge evident in her

eyes.

On the other side…

Eloise woke up from a nightmare, startled. She sat up in bed, feeling a lingering fear. Glancing at the time, she

realized it had already been evening, so she quickly changed clothes, preparing to go out.

“Madam, where were you going? Dinner was almost ready…” a servant in the living room tried to stop her.

“I’m not eating. Oh, by the way, did Cecilia’s friends stay for dinner?” Eloise asked.

“They had already left.”

“They left?” Eloise was a bit surprised. Why didn’t they stay for a meal? As the servant hesitated to speak further,

Eloise’s phone

rang.

“Williams, I was just about to leave. What did you say? Silvia fainted? I’m coming right away…”

Seeing Eloise rushing out of the house, the servant said nothing

more.

Meanwhile, Lisa was driving back to the company. Memories of a little girl who had fallen in the garden many years

ago resurfaced in her mind. At that time, the girl’s knee had been scraped and hurting, tears welling in her eyes,

but she had still tried to cheer everyone up, enduring the pain so no one would worry about her.

Cecilia had been so sensible and considerate back then, making everything feel so beautiful. When did she start to

change? Was it when Isabella returned to this family? Or was it when Isabella began to shine…

Lisa vividly remembered the first time she saw Isabella. It had been during a design competition when Isabella had

been working as Lucy’s assistant. Isabella’s right hand had been swollen and bruised, indicating a severe injury.

However, Isabella used her injured hand to embroider beautiful roses on her dress.

At that moment, the chairman of the Castle Fashion Association, Seb, unintentionally revealed Isabella’s true

identity as the founder of the Sofia Welch Group…

Despite being in her teens, Isabella had established such a large corporation and had managed the family business.

She had achieved so much at such a young age, willingly serving as an assistant to mentor more youthful

generations.

Her ambition and vision had surpassed that of many others…

As Lisa spent more time with Isabella, she witnessed her shining in various aspects of life…

Although Lisa hadn’t wanted to compare Isabella and Cecilia, their perspectives and ways of handling things had

been worlds apart.

On the other side….

As Isabella dropped Benjamin off at the entrance of the villa, Benjamin gently patted her head. “You suffered.”

“It was nothing,” Isabella replied. Cecilia’s schemes couldn’t harm her.

“There’s something I didn’t tell you…” Benjamin looked into

Isabella’s eyes before speaking. “On Christmas Eve, Lisa contacted me.”

Those words surprised Isabella because Lisa didn’t usually reach out to him.

“Within the next month, leading up to New Year’s Eve, the family discussed the plan to announce your identity. So,

Mathew and I were working to resolve the external forces as soon as possible. We wanted to ensure everyone knew

you were the true daughter of the Logan family before New Year’s Eve.”

Isabella’s eyebrows raised slightly. “So, they had originally planned to surprise me on New Year’s Eve, but you just

spoiled it?”

Benjamin chuckled. “Considering the recent events, Lisa should be the one to inform you tonight… Everyone

wanted to reveal their identity as soon as possible. Unfortunately, due to various reasons, the villains succeeded for

now.”

“It doesn’t matter to me whether it’s announced or not,” Isabella smiled. “Don’t worry about me. You should go

back now and take care on your way.”

“If anything happens next, remember to inform me.”

“Don’t worry. Am I not capable enough to handle Cecilia?” Isabella smiled, not taking Cecilia seriously at all.

“Tomorrow, the Heilig family might hold a funeral. I’ll come to pick you up then.”

“Okay.”

After Benjamin left, Isabella returned to her lakeside villa. She decided to eat, drink, and then attend to her work.

She needed to attend Freda’s funeral and check her grandfather’s health.

On the other side…

Scarlet received a message and hurriedly ran to Cecilia’s side. “Cecilia, Isa had two rice bowls tonight, enough to

feed a pig. She could eat and sleep peacefully while you were starving and suffering here!”

“I already expected this…” Cecilia weakly lay on the bed. “The more wretched I became, the more triumphant she

felt…”

She had Lisa’s support for now, but what was there to be proud of?

“Cecilia, are you feeling better now?” Scarlet asked, concerned.

Cecilia’s face was pale, her lips devoid of colour. To seek Lisa’s forgiveness, she had spent an hour soaking in an

ice-cold bathtub!

Scarlet heard the beeping sound of the thermometer indicating the end of the measurement and quickly checked

it. “Heavens, Cecilia,

your temperature was already 39 degrees Celsius! I’ll find a fever patch for you…”

“Scarlet…” Cecilia weakly called out, stopping her. “Applying it now would ruin everything. Call Lisa and ask when

he’ll return…”

“Right, right…” Scarlet didn’t expect Cecilia to remain so calm even when sick. It seemed she had indeed changed!

As Scarlet reached for her phone, Cecilia’s vision started to blur, and she eventually fainted.

“Hello, Mr. Lisa. When will you be home? It’s already 8 o’clock… Cecilia is…” Scarlet didn’t even finish her sentence

before Lisa coldly interrupted.

“Let her wait.”

“Cecilia can’t wait any longer. She has a fever now, with a temperature of 102 degrees Fahrenheit! Her face has no

colour… She cried the whole afternoon… Maybe she cried too much and got sick…” Scarlet’s voice trembled,

almost in tears. “Please, Mr Lisa, Pls come back quickly… Cecilia hasn’t eaten anything at this hour, and her fever is

so severe…”
