Chapter 324

When Elspeth tried her best to rush to the hospital, Isabel was already in the operating room. Elspeth asked Uno to leave and waited outside the operating room alone.

The operation took a long time, but a doctor exited the room solemnly when it was still on the fly. “Who’s the family?”

“Me.” She hurriedly came up to him.

“The burns are bad. We barely saved her from death’s door, but we can’t recover her skin from the burns.”

“It’s okay. Thank you for saving her.” This is the best possible outcome I could ever pray for. I can take things over from there.

By the time Isabel woke up, Elspeth was the only person in the ward with her.

“Elspeth…” Her voice was so hoarse due to hydration.

Elspeth handed Isabel a glass of water atop the table so that she could moisturize her dry throat.

“Do I look ugly?”

“Not at all. Don’t worry. I’ve promised that you will recover from these burns.” Girls tend to care about their appearances, so Elspeth knew how awful Isabel felt at the moment.

A light of hope flashed across Isabel’s eyes, but it faded almost immediately. “I… Forget it. You’ll be leaving the country in a few days. I’m just a burden.”

Elspeth primped the blanket and shot her a glare. “What’s with that nonsense? Why are you a burden? I am leaving the country, and you can come with me.”

Isabel’s brows furrowed. “No. If I go, old Mr. Joneson will find out about it.”
