Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 63 Pay Up

Margot coughed lightly a few times. “What’s wrong with me?”

Holding her hand, Ophelia had a look of worry. “Mrs. Winthrop, you passed out. Thank God the nanny found you in time; otherwise, things might have gone south very quickly. Are you hungry, Mrs. Winthrop? I can buy some food for you if you want.”

She then looked at Elspeth, who was standing beside her. “Elspeth, could you come with me?”

Looking at Callum, Elspeth wanted to ditch this awkward atmosphere of the three being around each other, so she nodded. “Sure.”

Ophelia bought a lot of food, looking as if she cared a lot for Margot.

However, these foods could not be consumed by a patient that had just woken up.

Elspeth wondered what Ophelia’s plans were, so she did not say anything about it.

Reaching the entrance, Ophelia suddenly said that her stomach ached. Wanting to buy some medicine for it, she said that she would be right back.

“Elspeth, I’ll have to trouble you to give these to Mrs. Winthrop.” Ophelia smiled apologetically.

Finally, Elspeth knew what she was scheming. “Okay.”

She received the food and went straight into the ward.

After standing around outside for a while, Ophelia entered.

The moment she entered, she saw Ophelia helping Margot to eat with a packet of opened snacks on the table.

Callum was not there as he seemed to be out.

“Elspeth! What are you doing?” Ophelia stared at her, wide-eyed. “Do you not know that Mrs. Winthrop can’t consume these kinds of greasy and fried foods? Why did you still buy these for her?”
