Chapter 718 Is That So?
Belle stood there in a daze and couldn''t tell if Jaqueline was joking or not.
"Logically speaking, she had never seen this bright girl shaken up before. If it hadn''t been for this
reason, perhaps she wouldn''t have acted like this. Thinking back to that afternoon, Jaqueline had been
behaving rather politely. She wouldn''t have lost to Belle in any aspect. However, Madam Lilian had
been indifferent and behaved coldly towards her, and she also treated Nuncio as evasively as she
could."
"Belle was also confused for a moment. She couldn''t bear to see Jaqueline so stirred up. Thus, she
took her hand and consoled her with a smile. ""Jaqueline, if things are really as you said, that Madam
Lilian is just unwilling to help resolve the dispute because of her prejudice against the Cole family, then
I will try my best. Although I may not be able to achieve anything, I promise that I will ask her for help.
What do you say?"""
Really? Jaqueline''s eyes sparkled as she asked joyfully.
Belle nodded solemnly.
"Sure, Belle. I hope I can see your action, and then I will find out the reason as soon as possible and
convince you, Jaqueline said confidently."
"Uh-huh, I promise you. Belle smiled slightly."
"Frankly speaking, Jaqueline was smart, cheerful, and well-behaved. Belle had no reason not to
believe her. Although what she said that day was a bit extreme, Belle still promised her. She didn''t want
to trouble Madam Lilian, but since they were citizens of Tambend, they should do their best to help
each other. Even if they couldn''t help, they wouldn''t feel any regrets."
"Belle, I''m sorry, but I''ll leave it to you. It''s already veryte. So, I won''t disturb you any further. I''ll take
my leave first. Jaqueline''s face lit up as she announced in a satisfied manner."

Good night. Belle also smiled and bade each other good night.
"Jaqueline left with jubnt steps. It seemed a fait apli to her that as long as Belle could assist in
this matter, Madam Lilian would definitely help Nuncio solve this problem."
"Meanwhile, Belle felt an indescribable strangeness."
"In fact, there was another important reason why Jaqueline was so enthusiastic about this matter. Belle
understood clearly and had long heard that Brooklyn Cole was going to let Jaqueline join the Ministry of
Foreign Affairs. She presented a good image and was eloquent, fitting the bill for a position in the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs with perfection. Therefore, Jaqueline was eager to assist in this matter for
the ministry to warm up her skills in this aspect, as she was about to take on the position."
"If Nuncio could get Madam Lilian to help them, then it would be a golden opportunity for the Cole
family."
"Belle stood in the garden and watched Jaqueline''s beautiful figure dwindle away. After a moment of
silence, she turned around and went back to Fragrance Garden to sleep."
Bright sun Rhyss prated the purple window gauze curtain.
"When Belle opened her eyes, Calvin had already left."
"After such a long cmity, the internal affairs of the Harvey Group had piled up like a mountain. It had
been ten days or half a month since theyst returned to thepany to work."
Calvin didn''t dare to be careless. He had already driven to work in thepany Tristany in the
morning.
"After Belle got out of bed and washed up, and remembering that Madam Lilian was still there, she
hurriedly walked to the Ink Garden. "
"Madam, are we going back to the hotel or to the hospital today? As soon as Belle entered the guest
room in the Ink Garden, Quina''s voice rang."
"Apparently, Madam Lilian had already gotten up Tristany to do her exercises. The door was ajar."
"Belle felt a little remorseful. The night before, it was a littlete when Jaqueline had chatted with her.
When she returned to her bedroom, she thought about what she had said. She tossed and turned as it
was difficult for her to fall asleep. Hence, she woke upte in the morning."
"Just as she was about to push open the door with her hand, Madam Lilian''s words swept into her ears
like a tornado, making her feel as if it wasn''t real."
"Of course I have to go to the hospital to take care of my daughter. It took me a lot of effort to find her,
and she is very ill. How can I let her in the hospital alone? This time, I have to perform well and take
care of her personally until she recoverspletely and is healthy, Madam Lilian said decisively
without hesitation, and then ordered, ""Quina, call to report that I have something important to do in A
city and will be staying here for a while."""
"Quina understood and immediately said with a smile, ""Okay, Madam. I''ll call right away. I''m afraid that
the other party will urge me. After all, there are many things to do recently."""
"It''s no use urging me. I''ve lived my entire life for others. This time, I want to do something for my
daughter. I''ll take care of her myself and fulfill my duty as a mother. It may be toote, but I''ll do my
best topensate her. Madam Lilian sighed deeply, but her tone was quite determined."
"Madam, in fact, it''s better for Kate to be sent abroad for treatment. I''m not sure if you are nning to
do so? Quina thought of this question and reminded her."
"When Madam Lilian heard this, she felt a lump in her throat and said in a hoarse voice, ""Quina, do
you think I don''t want to? But now, I''m still unsure if they will ept me. It will be too abrupt if I take her
abroad like this. This will arouse her suspicion. Looking at her character, how would shee with
me?"""
"Speaking of this, Madam Lilian''s heart sank."
"s, Madam, you and Kate will reconcile sooner orter. It''s better to take this opportunity to let her
know and tell her about the stakes. We might as well take her abroad to cure her illnesspletely.
Quina certainly understood the uncertainty Madam Lilian was feeling. The suggestion she gave was
too heart-wrenching and distressing for her to go on like this."
"When Madam Lilian heard this, she could no longer control herself. Hot tears welled up in her eyes
and she could not hold back her sobs."
"Quina, do you think I don''t want to? But her body is so weak, and she still has such a temper. She''s so
simr to vian. If I force this knowledge on her, then I''m afraid that her condition will worsen if she
gets too emotional. It''s not worth risking it. I can''t rush this matter and will take my time in this. Who in
this world doesn''t want their own flesh and blood to ept them and reunite as soon as possible?"
Madam Lilian sobbed as she wiped away her tears.
The mood in the guest room was very depressing.
"Belle''s hand, which was about to knock on the door, stopped mid-air, and could notnd on the door."
"The conversation in the room all clearly entered her ears, and anyone with half a brain could
understand it."
"So, that was what it was..."
"Belle seemed to have understood everything in an instant, but she also seemed to be unable to think
of anything. Her mind was in a mess."
She could not push the door open.
"Such news was too sudden. Not only was it hard for Kate to ept it, but it was also difficult for Belle,
who was part of the younger generation, to imagine so."
"Her arm slid down silently, and she whirled around and walked out nkly."
"It was sunny outside, and the garden was bathed in a golden light. The weather in autumn was fresh
and clear."
"Belle tried hard to keep the confusion in her heart on a tight leash. She looked up, took a deep breath,
and even shed tears from the corner of her eyes."
"The sky above Harvey Manor was a deep shade of azure and was refreshing. Yet, her heart was in
shambles."
