Chapter 1281


    The servants had no choice but to retreat and report to Zorion.


    But when they reached the door that led to his room, the servant''s face turned red in


    embarrassment. His door was closed and there were noises from within. What was he doing there?


    The servant raised his hand but quickly withdrew. Recalling how he was scolded previously, he


    thought that it best to look for Deanna/


    The servant walked towards Deanna''s room and knocked on her door. "Miss Deanna..."


    Deanna pushed the door open and looked at the servant who was standing in front of her. "What''s


    the matter?"


    "Well..."


    The servant didn''t know how to exin the situation. All he knew was that there had been noises


    coming from the Zorion''s room.


    Deanna looked puzzled. She hadn''t eaten much in the past two days ever since her brother had put


    her under house arrest.


    Deanna tried to go on a hunger strike, but that didn''t work. She refused to eat for the entire day in


    hopes that her brother would change his mind but he did not budge. Deanna was going crazy, but


    there was nothing else she could do.


    She had lost a lot of weight, she''s...


    As Deanna fell deep into thought, the servant told her about Santiago''s usation while ncing in


    the direction of Zorion''s room. Deanna was shocked to hear what was being said and ran


    downstairs immediately.Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.


    Deanna looked at the help and said, "I''ll go out and take a look. My brother won''t find out. Let''s


    settle our business with Santiago."


    Deanna left after saying that The servant had indeed thought that that was what she was nning


    to do. After all, Deanna was the only person who wouldn''t be afraid of Santiago.


    The servant hurriedly followed her outside towards the main entrance. When they saw Santiago,


    Deanna had the sudden urge to break into tears as she felt that her savior had arrived.


    Santiago stared at Deanna as she stopped in front of him. He thought about how she had lost a lot


    of weight.


    "Open the door," Santiago said with an annoyed voice. The servants thought his behaviour changed


    due to her presence because he was fine prior to her arrival.


    The servants opened the door quickly. But as soon as the door swung open, Santiago pulled


    Deanna out towards him, and turned to walk towards the car. The servants stepped forward to stop


    him but Santiago red daggers at them. The servants took a step back and called after Deanna.


    They knew that something was amiss.


    However, their realization came toote. The corners of Santiago''s lips curled up into a smile. "She


    will be back tomorrow. I am bringing her to visit my grandmother."


    Santiago opened the car door and pushed her right in, causing Raeleigh to wake from her slumber


    before moving over to make way for Deanna. Her face flushed red when she woke up. She had


    dreamed about Jepherson.


    She was baffled at herself.


    "Raeleigh, why are you sleeping in the car? You could catch a cold. Look, your whole face is red."


    Deanna couldn’t be bothered at her haggard appearance. She took off her outer coat quickly and


    handed it to Raeleigh. Raeleigh was still in a dazed state after being jolted awake. She felt like she


    had only taken a short nap, so she was surprised to see Deanna.


    Santiago then got into the car, started the engine and drove right back to Xanthos''s ce.


    Raeleigh finally woke up from her dazed state and looked at Deanna. Then, she removed the coat


    on her and draped it over Deanna instead. "Put this on, or you''ll catch a cold when we get out of the


    car. Why are you so thin? It looks like you haven''t eaten in days. You don''t even have makeup on."


    Deanna had always dressed up whenever she went out, but that day was an exception.


    Deanna was blessed with good looks and looked especially delicate even without makeup.


    However, she looked gaunt that day, as if she had aged a few years. She didn''t look like the usual


    Deanna.


    Deanna sat upright and sped her hands together. She looked a little nervous, but it was hard to


    tell why.


    As Raeleigh sat beside her, she didn''t enquire further when she saw Deanna''s disinterest to


    borate.


    The servant ran back upstairs and stood outside Zorion''s door. He wanted to knock on the door, but


    shrank back in fear. "What should I do? What is he doing inside? Zorion must be in excellent


    physical health. How long have they been going at it for?"


    "Are you still feeling unwell?" Zorion was almost driven mad. It looked like Rossie might have food


    poisoning as she was still feeling sick. Sheid in bed with her eyes closed, tears rolling down her


    cheeks. She ced her hands over her stomach and refused to answer Zorion, her face as white as


    a sheet.


    Zorion knew that menstrual pain could be torturous but had no idea how to manage it. All he knew


    was that Deanna would have simr episodes asionally and she would always take painkillers to


    get herself through the pain. She would be fine after taking the pills with some ginger tea.


    Rossie had tried everything, including the ginger tea and the painkillers but to no avail.


    Sheid in bed quietly.


    Zorion held her arm and asked, "Rossie, where do you feel unwell? Let''s get you to the hospital."


    When Rossie heard that she was going to the hospital, she burst into tears and kept shaking her


    head. She didn''t want to go to the hospital; people would learn of her real age and her


    embarrassing history if she were to go there.


    "How about we make a house call?" Zorion had been very unhappy for the past two days because


    of Deanna and he had no way to exin this to his parents. Due to the whole Deanna issue, he had


    not been paying much attention to Rossie. He didn''t expect anything would actually happen to her.


    Rossie shook her head in disagreement. Zorion couldn''t bear to watch anymore. His heart ached


    from watching her suffer.


    He got up to make a phone call and asked that a private doctore for a house call.


    The servant was still hesitant about the earlier matter when the doctor arrived and knocked on the


    door.


    Zorion immediately opened the door to let the doctor in before closing it.


    The servant had wanted to see what was going on inside but the door was mmed shut.


    They were being so mysterious which further amplified his hesitation to impose on them.


    The doctor informed Zorion that Rossie may need strong medicine. After writing her a prescription,


    he left. Zorion stood at the door and finally noticed the anxious servant. He asked, "What''s the


    matter?"


    "Miss Deanna..."


    When they arrived home, Raeleigh got out of the car and went to open the door for Deanna. But


    Santiago beat her to it and helped her open the car door instead. Deanna looked at Raeleigh and


    said apologetically, "Raeleigh, I''m sorry, I''vee to disturb you again."


    "It''s fine."


    "Please let Dr. Osteen know that I will try to leave as soon as I can. I will find a way to leave." She


    had a strange expression when she spoke. Raeleighughed and asked, "Where do you n on


    going?"


    "I can''t tell you that." Deanna looked around. In fact, this would be thest ce she would choose


    to stay, but it seemed like she had no other choice.


    This was Xanthus residence. Xanthus must be Raeleigh''s new boyfriend, which meant that


    Jepherson had already lost thepetition. It was quite a sad matter to think about.


    Deanna didn''t want to live under Xanthus'' roof.


    But she was left with no other choice.


    She had nowhere else to go.


    Since Deanna didn''t want to say more on the matter, Raeleigh decided to stop probing. On the other


    hand, Santiago thought about her strange reaction as he followed behind the two women.
