Chapter 874


    Isabelle staggered backward as she held onto the cart next to her. Then, she reached for her phone


    with her shaking hands and gave Old Mr. Bailey a call, which the man took a while to pick up. Upon


    answering the phone, the first thing that Old Mr. Bailey asked was where she was. “Where the heck are


    you now? I’ve been looking for you. There is a document we need to talk about.”


    Before Isabelle could respond, her tears started rolling down her cheeks, but Old Mr. Bailey kept urging


    her to return. A few momentster, Isabelle faked a cough and said, “Dad, I found Dexter.”


    Old Mr. Bailey paused for a long while and responded in a deep voice, sounding very unhappy. “And?


    What’s wrong with him this time?”


    Isabelle fought back her tears. “Dexter was caught in a traffic ident. Please get here as soon as


    possible.”


    After a moment of silence, Old Mr. Bailey directly hung up the call. Meanwhile, Isabelle was seen


    wiping her tears, not knowing when they rolled down from her eyes. Soon, one of the doctors suddenly


    said, “Oh gosh! This is not good!”

    Startled by those words, Isabelle immediately got closer and asked, “What’s wrong?! What’s going


    on?!” Nevertheless, the doctors were too busy to answer her as the nurses took Isabelle further away


    to keep her from interfering with the doctors. Feeling her limbs going weak, Isabelle staggered


    backward and leaned against the wall.


    Soon, the emergency department was filled with noise, with more patients arriving. In that instant,


    Isabelle felt dizzy, recalling bits and pieces of memory about Dexter. Dexter was the closest person to


    me and the only person who treated me with sincere kindness in the family. At the same time, Isabelle


    was also aware of what her grandfather and father were up to, disappointed about the fact that the two


    elderly valued their own interests more than the family. Grandpa and Dad have always hoped for me to


    find someone reliable to help Dexter in the future, but they’re only doing it for the sake of the family’s


    reputation. But Dexter was a young little boy with a pure heart, and I could feel that he genuinely


    wanted what was best for me.


    In fact, Isabelle had secretly heard Dexter arguing with Old Mr. Bailey as he wanted their father to stop


    taking advantage of his sister. Then, the boy went on to tell the man that he wanted to be in control of


    his own life and that he didn’t need someone else to help him pave the way. The reason he said that


    was because he wanted Isabelle to live a happy life since he knew his sister wasn’t happy at all. As her


    mind was filled with all those memories, she covered her face and broke down in tears.


    Soon, Old Mr. Bailey arrived and nervously made his way to the emergency department. While the


    rescue was still ongoing, Isabelle overheard the doctors discussing some kind of drug that they


    believed Dexter had drunk before the ident. Meanwhile, Old Mr. Bailey lost control of his temper and


    made a fuss there and then, demanding the doctors to save his son in a menacing way.


    Isabelle seized Old Mr. Bailey’s hand and said, “Dad, let’s get out of here and stay out of the doctors’


    way.”


    Old Mr. Bailey’s eyes turned red as he suddenly gave a p to Isabelle’s face. “What’s wrong with you?


    Is this really what you want for your little brother?” Meanwhile, Isabelle was confused with Old Mr.


    Bailey’s reaction, covering her face with her palm while gazing at the man.


    With a menacing look on his face, Old Mr. Bailey said, “I know what you’re thinking, but let me be


    honest with you. You’re not getting a single penny of my fortune even if anything happens to your


    brother. I’d rather give it all to the Second Bailey Family instead of an animal like you. Your brother is


    dying, so how dare you gloat over his misery?!”


    Isabelle frowned and said, “No. Since when did I ever gloat?”


    Nevertheless, Old Mr. Bailey was too stubborn to bother about her reasoning. Then, he turned his


    attention to the doctors and threatened them in a loud voice, “You guys had better do everything you


    can to save my son! Otherwise, I’m going to make sure each of you here regrets it for the rest of your


    life!”
