Chapter 506


    Misunderstanding


    "But, with my very own eyes, I saw you bring the medicine here to me." J was utterly


    flummoxed.


    Elizabeth then told her the whole story. "When I was about to leave, I ran into Rosa. I asked her why


    she hadn''t left yet. She said that the nurse asked her to send the medicine to you, but then she said


    Mr. Wesley had something urgent to talk to her about, so she had to leave. That''s why she asked


    me to bring you the medicine, so that she could go attend to her other engagement with Mr.


    Wesley."


    Elizabeth continued, "But are you certain that there is something wrong with the medicine?"


    "My husband has had samples of it analyzed. The results came back and there is definitely a


    purgative agent in it," J answered.


    Elizabeth kept mum when she heard her response.


    It was not until then that it dawned upon J. She said, "Rosa must have tampered with the


    medicine and asked you to deliver it to me. That way, she could ce the me squarely on you."


    Elizabeth still keptpletely silent.


    She was never a fan of people scheming against each other.


    J noticed her lengthy silence so suddenly ventured a question, "Penny for your thoughts?


    Why aren''t you saying anything?" Elizabeth shook her head.


    "I''m not good at dealing with theplicated rtionships at y in the workce, so I didn''t see


    what you so easily observed."


    J''s eyes brightened with glee and she couldn''t help butugh, "Well, you always look so distant


    and aloof. Perhaps therein is where the problem lies."

    J had never really thought that Elizabeth would turn out to be a genuinely nice person since she


    looked so frigid on the surface. She also hadn''t thought that Rosa would be so conniving. No


    wonder Rosa would act weird from time to time, especially when J was praised by Draco. "It''s


    my fault that I lied to you. I''m sorry," J said in sincere apology. "I shouldn''t have jumped to the


    conclusion that you were the one who did it just because you looked distant."


    "I''m not distant. I just don''t like to social with others and tend to be a little introverted. Maybe that''s


    why I don''t have many friends. Back in school, I was always isted from the others," Elizabeth


    said with a bitter smile.


    With a gentle smile, J said in a rxed tone, "Well, now I know."


    This misunderstand had actually resulted in the two of them bing closer.


    After this interaction, Elizabeth came to visit her a few times again, but she was still a woman of few


    words. J felt it surprisingly interesting to hang out with a character such as Elizabeth.

    That night, when Ethan came to the hospital straight from work, he was told what had transpired.


    "Although I could be sure it was Rosa now, I don''t have any cold, hard evidence." J had mixed


    feelings.


    Looking at her lifeless, gaunt face, Ethan frowned ever so slightly.


    Since they hade to Barnes, one thing happened after the other, without a moment for reprieve.


    He tucked her in and said, "Don''t think about it. Just rx and take a good rest."


    Ethan checked the surveince video of the hospital that day, but found nothing.


    Presumably, Rosa would taken the precaution to have avoided the cameras when she did it.


    J had almost recovered, and the Mn Fashion Week was around the corner. She decided to


    put this matter aside for the time being. She could deal with Rosa after she came back from Mn.
