CHAPTERS 1276 - 1280
CHAPTER 1276
Prince and Lemur worked together and listed all the big shots in Madison City on a piece of paper. The list obviously included the most mysterious figure of Madison City, Mr. Carter.
Lemur looked at the name "Mr. Carter" and immediately thought of Young Master Carter, who they had met a few times. "Prince, should we remove this Mr. Carter from the list?"
It was after careful consideration that Prince had decided to write down Mr. Carter, so he said, "We all know that Mr. Carter wouldn't be the one to do that to Felix, but we are now listing down the names of big shots in Madison City. If he's not included in the list, who else do you think deserved to be called a big shot?"
Lemur said, "Well, you're right, but I don't want to cause any unnecessary misunderstanding between Boss and Young Master Carter. After all, Young Master Carter has done a lot to help Boss since Felix's disappearance. We really mustn't let them get into a fight with each other anymore."
Prince hesitated and asked, "Why don't we make a new list then?"
"You guys don't have to worry about it too much, okay?" Silvia, who had just returned from the washroom, grabbed the name list and casually glanced through it. "I can still tell who's the good guy and who's the bad guy. I won‘t get into a fight with Andrew just because Mr. Carter is on this list."
Lemur said, "Boss, it's no doubt that Young Master Carter is really good to you, so you should cherish him. Don't argue with him for no reason! Frankly, men really hate unreasonable women!"
"Just cut the crap already, will you?" Silvia was completely focused on finding the murderer, so she was not in the mood to talk about Andrew at all. "Now, help me analyze the background of these people. We must not let go of any clues.“
In the past, Felix would usually spend most of his time with Silvia. They would go to school and go home together. They were so close to each other that it felt like they had become one. However, Silvia had never seen Felix having anything to do with any of the big shots in Madison City, so she could only use this foolish method to find out the truth.
Despite it being silly, Silvia believed that as long as she had put enough effort into it, she would still be able to gather at least some clues!
"Okay." Prince and Lemur replied. Then, the three of them started analyzing the people on the list. However, they still could not find any new leads after a few hours of analysis.
"Boss, rumor has it that it could be the big shot who had banished Felix from the city! But this could be a baseless rumor or even a news that the culprit had released in order to cover up his doings!"
"Well, that's possible too." Silvia rubbed her aching temples and said feebly, "Prince, Lemur, it's getting late now. Let's wrap up for tonight. You guys can go home first.“
Prince asked, "Boss, are you not going home?"
Silvia leaned against the chair and answered, "I'll go home in a bit. Go ahead!"
"Let's leave together then." If Silvia was going to stay back, then how could Prince and Lemur feel at ease leaving her behind?
Silvia put on a wry smile and said, "I won't let anything happen to me before I find Felix's murderer. I must avenge him, so you guys, stop worrying about me, okay?"
Prince and Lemur said, "Boss...“
Silvia waved her hand and said, "Just leave me alone! I need some time by myself to think about all this, please!"
"Okay..." Knowing Silvia's stubborn temper, Prince and Lemur stopped persuading her. "You should go home soon! If there's anything, make sure you give us a call immediately, alright?"
"Okay, thanks!" Prince and Lemur both grew up with Silvia. They had never abandoned her even when she was in trouble after her father's death. It was the same now. Silvia often thought that she was lucky to have such great friends in this life.
Soon after Prince and Lemur had left, Silvia's phone rang. It was an unknown number, but Silvia answered it without a second thought. "Hello? Who is this?"
“Silvia, it's me!" Alina Bell replied in a sweet voice. "It had just been a while since we've met. Have you already forgotten me?"
"What's up this time?" It was because of Mr. Donald's case that Alina had called Silvia previously. Hence, Alina must have a reason for calling again now.
“Silvia, I'm sure that you've already seen the photo of Felix lying in a pool of blood," Alina said with a grin.
"You killed him?!" Silvia was surprised that Alina actually knew about this. The first thing that came into her mind at that very moment was to think that Alina was closely related to the culprit.
"Me? Hahaha..." Alina laughed hysterically. "Silvia, don't you think that you are thinking too highly of me? l'm just a toy under someone else's thumb, do you really think that I would have the ability to kill your Felix? Besides, I like Felix too much to be able to hurt him."
Silvia's first response was to suspect Alina. However, after calming herself down, she knew that Alina would not have the ability to do so. Even if she was the culprit, she would not have exposed herself like this. "Alina, you are not the murderer, but you know who did it, don't you?"
"I don't know much either, hahaha…" Alina continued to laugh like a maniac. "Silvia, I'm sure that it didn't feel good seeing your beloved man lying in a pool of blood... Oh no, maybe, you are happy. After all, you have found yourself a new lover, didn't you? With the powerful and handsome Young Master Carter by your side, I suppose that you've completely forgotten about Felix, right?"
"Alina, tell me what you know." Silvia ignored everything Alina had said. She only cared about the clues that Alina had at hand.
Silvia believed that as long as she could get her hand on some of the clues, she would definitely be able to ferret out the killer and avenge Felix, so that Felix could finally rest in peace.
“Silvia, you bitch, why are you still trying to pretend?" Alina snorted. "Since you've already found another man, then you should just live a good life. Felix is now in your past and his life and death has nothing to do with you anymore."
Silvia was so exasperated that she wanted to smash the phone. "Alina, you f*cking called me to give me clues about it, didn't you? So why are you talking all this nonsense to me now? Tell me or I'll really kill you."
Silvia knew Alina's character very well. Alina would not tell her what she wanted to know that easily.
"Wow... You're being so arrogant now that you're with Young Master Carter, huh?" Alina was satisfied by the fact that she was pissing Silvia off. "Kill me? Tell me Silvia. Tell me how you‘re going to kill me. Do you really think that I'm afraid of you?"
CHAPTER 1277
“Alina, what do you want? Tell me who the culprit is!" Indeed, Silvia was very eager to get the clues from Alina as she was desperate to take revenge on Felix‘s behalf. This was Silvia's weakness and Alina knew it very well.
"You're asking me what I want?" Alina continued to laugh hysterically. After a while, she suddenly said fiercely, "I want you to go to hell, Silvia Turner. If you die at this instant, I'll then tell you the clues that I have now."
"Huh... I'm afraid that I'll have to disappoint you. I have no intention of giving up on my life at all." Silvia's parents had given birth to her and worked hard to raise her, how could she take her life so easily? She would never do that! Moreover, she also believed that Felix would not want that!
Many years ago, Silvia had been kidnapped and tortured with extreme means, and she almost did not survive.
Up till this moment, she could still remember what Felix had said to her. He said, "Dying is very easy. You could die by stabbing yourself with a knife, or you could just poison yourself. Instead, it's more difficult to survive and live life to the fullest extent under all circumstances."
Because of Felix‘s words, Silvia held on until her father and Felix had come to save her. She had been thrown into icy cold waters and almost froze to death!
After that incident, she was completely traumatized. She hid in her room all day and did not dare meet anyone. lt was Felix who broke into her room and told her, holding her hands, "Silvia, as long as we are still alive, everything that we have experienced will not be a big deal. From now on, let's live a wonderful life, so that we will leave this world contentedly in the future.“
Yes, as long as she was alive, there would be hope. Even if Alina had refused to give her the clues, Silvia believed that she could still find out who the culprit was and avenge Felix, who had died a miserable death.
"Huh..." Alina sneered and said, "Bitch, since you said that you're not going to die, it means that you don't want the clues and you don't want to avenge Felix anymore, do you?"
"It's up to myself if I want to avenge Felix. It has nothing to do with you. Don't call me again in the future. I don't want to hear your disgusting voice ever again." Alina was unwilling to provide any clues, and Silvia thought it was impossible for her to get anything out of Alina, so she decided to hang up.
"Silvia, if I don't give you any clues, you will never find out who the culprit is," Alina quickly added before Silvia could hang up. So, Silvia paused.
Knowing that Silvia was still listening, Alina added, "Silvia, why are you still trying to act like a saint? I really feel sorry for Felix. Why did he fall in love with a slut like you? It had only been a few months since his disappearance, but you've already bedded Young Master Carter. Oh, by the way, I really want to know who's better in bed, Felix or Young Master Carter?"
"If you want to know,then why don't you go experience it yourself?" Knowing that Alina has no intention of providing her with the clues, Silvia thought that it would be useless to continue on with the conversation. Therefore, Silvia hung up the phone, not giving Alina any more chances to speak.
However, Alina refused to give up. She sent a text message to Silvia. "Silvia, you don't have to worry about how Felix died. Just go keep your Young Master Carter company and live a good life. And here's a gentle reminder, take a good look at the people around you, they might be just wolves in sheep's clothing."
After the message was sent, Alina put away her phone and tilted her head to look at the man standing next to her. "You heard everything, didn't you? I don't think the call would work out like how you intended it to."
"We'll know very soon if it worked." The man stood in front of the window and looked at the vivid lights outside. His gaze was deep and somber. "Silvia, I know you have your own difficulties, and I know that you don't want to be with Andrew. Don't be afraid, I will come save you very soon."
Felix looked out of the window, and Alina looked at him. This man was someone who she wanted to have all this while but could not get...
In the past, she could not even think of standing next to him this way. Now, her dream had finally come true. She could finally spend time alone with Felix!
Alina reached out, wanting to grab him, but before she could even touch him, she withdrew her quivering hand. She was a ruined woman, and no longer deserved to be with him!
"Alina..."
Just as Alina was withdrawing her hand with disappointment, Felix suddenly called her name, which made her eyes lit up with hope. She put on a faint smile and said, "Hmm? What's the matter?"
Felix looked back and stared at Alina solemnly. "I want you to be nicer to Silvia in the future. I don't want to hear you cursing at her anymore."
After listening to his words, the hope in her eyes began to extinguish. Eventually, her eyes turned dull and gloomy...
Huh... What had Alina been thinking?
In the past, before everything had happened, Felix would never take a look at her because of Silvia. Now, she's just a woman who Mr. Donald had defIIed. It was impossible for Felix to ever fancy Alina at all!
After a silence, Alina asked, "Why did you save me?"
She had been violated by Mr. Donald and expelled from University A. After knowing about the truth, not only did her father not comfort her, he even assaulted her... At that time, Alina was completely hopeless, so she chose to take her own life.
Just as she was breathing her last breath, Felix suddenly appeared. He saved her and urged her to live on. He even suggested a plan to take down Mr. Donald.
Under Felix's guidance, Alina found Silvia and handed her the explicit photos that Mr. Donald had taken of the female students. She used Silvia and Andrew to help put Mr. Donald into jail and avenged herself.
After Mr. Donald's incident, she began to work for Felix.
"I thought that I've already made it clear to you, didn't I?" Felix shifted his gaze back to the window and said in a cold voice, "Since you're still confused, I'll explain it to you again. I saved you because I want to use you against Andrew."
"Okay." Alina smiled, concealing her dejection perfectly.
Right from the beginning, Felix had already told her that he saved her because he wanted to use her. However, she refused to believe it and even foolishly hoped that he would change his mind eventually, but it turned out that it was all false hope.
However, she had no regrets being his tool to get what he wanted!
CHAPTER 1278
“A formidable figure in Madison City!"
"Pay attention to the people around you!"
"They might be wolves in sheep's clothing!"
After reading the message from Alina, those words were deeply embedded in Silvia's mind.
As for the most formidable figure in Madison City, the legendary "Mr. Carter" was the first person in Silvia's mind. Moreover, Andrew was his son, and Andrew was someone who was by Silvia's side... Alina seemed to imply that Andrew was Felix's killer.
Andrew had never had anything to do with Alina, so why would she want to do that? Silvia could not figure it out. Did Alina put in so much effort just to sow discord between her and Andrew?
Alina was an extremely jealous person. In the past, she would always find fault with Silvia just because Silvia was the campus belle. So, Silvia could not rule out the possibility that Alina was only trying to cast a bone between her and Andrew.
After realizing all these possible reasons, Silvia chuckled and said, "Alina, it seems that you are really good at playing tricks, but I, Silvia Turner, am not someone who you can easily fool."
When Felix went missing, none of them had ever met nor had anything to do with Andrew, so Andrew absolutely did not have any motive to do that. Hence, Silvia was certain that the clues that she had gathered as of now were all fake. Someone was trying to lead her into the wrong direction, and it was possible that the culprit was hiding somewhere close to them, waiting for them to fall into his trap.
Silvia scrolled through her phone and deleted Alina’s message without any hesitation. Then, she blocked Alina's contact. She did not want to hear Alina's voice nor receive any more messages from her. Silvia would not give anyone a chance to damage her relationship with Andrew!
After deleting the messages, Silvia felt at a loss. She had hit a dead end. Where should she start looking then?
Ring...
Silvia was startled by the sudden sound. When she saw that it was Andrew calling her on the phone, she gradually calmed down.
She answered the call, "Hello?"
Andrew said in an unfriendly tone, "Silvia Turner, do you know what time it is now?"
Silvia looked at the time shown on the phone screen and answered. "It's 9 o'clock."
Andrew said, "It's already nine, so why aren't you home yet?"
"I'm not going home tonight," Silvia immediately hung up the phone.
Why must he sound like he was lecturing a child? She was an adult! She had her own life and thoughts. So what if she was a little late home?
After packing up, Silvia put on her backpack and went downstairs. Just as she arrived on the ground floor, she bumped into someone. Silvia looked up and saw Andrew's somber face.
She glanced at him and tried to break away from him. However, as soon as she took a step, Andrew had already pulled her back into his arms. He said in a deep voice, "Did I allow you to leave?"
"Do I need to get your permission to go wherever I want?" Silvia was already feeling very depressed, but this man was yelling at her. Because of this, she could no longer hold her anger in.
Just as Silvia was about to lose her temper, Andrew lowered his voice and said in a gentle voice, "Do you know how worried I was when I saw that you weren't home at this hour?"
No matter how angry she was, all her anger dissipated when she heard what Andrew had said. Silvia rubbed her face against his chest and said, "Can't you just tell me that you're worried about me? Why do you have to be so fierce with me?"
"It's because you don't take things seriously unless I speak this way!" That was what Andrew said, but he knew that no matter how fierce he was to her, Silvia still wouldn't take things seriously. She would just do whatever she liked.
"Okay, I'll keep that in mind." Thinking of her deceased father and Felix who had died miserably, the fear of losing Andrew overwhelmed Silvia. She anxiously reached out her hands and wrapped her arms tightly around Andrew's waist. "Andrew, hold me tighter."
Andrew hugged her tightly and asked, "What's the matter?"
Silvia felt much more at ease as she leaned against Andrew's chest, listening to his strong and steady heartbeat. She could even joke around with him. "Does a wife need a reason to hug her husband?"
"Did you do something wrong again?" Silvia had never acted coquettishly with him. Andrew thought that she must have done something wrong that she was behaving this way.
"Andrew, what kind of a person do you think I am?" She was just scared. She was afraid that she would lose Andrew like how she had lost her father and Felix. She wanted him to hug her, so that she could feel that he was really by her side. However, this man actually thought that she had caused trouble again.
Andrew smiled and said, "You're someone who would cause trouble for me every now and then."
"I will not do that again, Andrew." From now on, she would try her best to be a good wife. She would not let him worry about her anymore and she would no longer do things that would upset him.
"Silvia, you can just do whatever you want. You don't have to restrain yourself. No matter how huge the trouble is, your husband will have the ability to clean up the mess for you." Andrew said confidently.
Silvia asked, "If I actually make a hole in the sky, can you help me fix it?"
Andrew replied, "If you can make a hole in the sky, then I will have the ability to fIx it."
Although Silvia could never make a hole in the sky, Andrew's words warmed her heart. It seemed that as long as he was by her side, she would be able to forget all her fears.
“Andrew, could you please promise me one thing?"
"Sure."
"Aren't you going to ask me what it is?"
"I'll agree to whatever you want me to do."
"Promise me that no matter what happens in the future, you will not leave this world before me. You promised me that you will take care of me for the rest of my life, I hope that you will keep your word." In fact, Silvia did not actually mean that she wanted Andrew to take care of her for the rest of her life. She was just afraid that he would suddenly disappear as her father and Felix did.
"I promise you." Then, Andrew lowered his head and kissed Silvia's lips. After tasting her lips, he gently released her.
"As long as you want me to, I will surely take care of you for the rest of your life." If he could, he really wanted to take care of her for the subsequent lives.
"Andrew, will you lie to me?" "
"I…" Andrew did not know which incident was she referring to, so he paused.
"Andrew, you promised me to take care of me for the rest of my life, so you mustn't break your promise! Otherwise, I'll never forgive you." Andrew's hesitation frightened Silvia, so she hurriedly gave him a few punches on the chest.
"I'm not lying. I will take care of you for the rest of your life." Andrew covertly breathed a sigh of relief the moment he heard that this was what she was referring to.
Andrew did not know what Silvia was afraid of deep down in her heart, nor did Silvia know what Andrew was worried about. At this moment, they only knew that neither of them wanted to lose each other.
CHAPTER 1279
Silvia had never mentioned anything about Felix's death to Andrew.
The reason was simple. Andrew had nothing to do with Felix. He had no obligation to look for the murderer for her. Moreover, Silvia did not want to keep relying on Andrew for her personal affairs.
All these years, there would be someone who would take care of her and protect her. She had always taken them for granted and she would rely on them so much that she had become so helpless when she finally lost them.
A few months ago, she could only sit and watch as Norman and his cronies snatched Wateria Corporation away from her. Now that she had found out Felix was murdered, she could not even find any clues!
She told herself that she could not rely on Andrew anymore. She had to do it herself...
As she was deep in her thoughts, Andrew grabbed her cold hand within his warm palms. In his deep and powerful voice, he asked, "What's wrong?"
"No, nothing.“ Silvia shook her head and said, "Andrew, could you please concentrate on your driving? No matter when or where, you must prioritize our safety, okay?"
“Okay, I know what I'm doing." Something must be bothering this young lady but she was not willing to tell him. Andrew did not want her to worry, so he withdrew his hand and focused on his driving.
It was already 10:30 pm. when they got home. However, the lights in the house were still on. Levi and Julien would even run to the door from time to time to see if Andrew had managed to bring their sister-in-law home.
After waiting for quite some time, they finally saw the two coming home. Levi trotted towards them and hugged one of Silvia's arms. "Sister Silvia, did Andrew bully you behind our backs?"
Silvia smiled and stroked his head. "No, he didn't."
Levi did not believe her. "But you don't look so well..."
"Really?" Silvia touched her face. She had experienced so much for the past few months, but she still could not hide her emotions. She would always show it on her face, and even a child could notice it. "It must be the weather. It's really cold outside."
Levi tiptoed and whispered in her ear, "Sister Silvia, I've already called for some backups. You don't have to be afraid of Andrew anymore. Just tell me if he bullies you, okay?.“
Silvia said, "Backups? What backups?"
"It's a secret for now. I'll tell you in a couple of days." That afternoon, Angela had called Levi on the phone to ask about the situation here, and Levi had accidentally revealed that Andrew had locked Silvia up in a dark room as a punishment. When Angela heard that, she was so furious that she instantly said she was going to go over to Madison City to help Silvia out.
Angela was a go-getter. No one would be able to stop her when she had decided on something, so Levi was guessing that Angela was probably on the plane to Madison City at this very moment.
"Do you have to keep me guessing like this, Levi?" Silvia knew that Levi was a cheeky little boy, so she did not take his words seriously. She thought that Levi probably was just trying to scare Andrew.
"Andrew, Sister Silvia is a lady. You should always treat ladies well, and not bully them."
Levi gave Andrew a discontented look, and then pulled Silvia up. "Sister Silvia, you must be hungry, right? Auntie Cherry has prepared a lot of good food for you. Make sure you have more of it later, okay?"
Andrew kept quiet. He was quite happy that the boys could get along so well with Silvia.
"Okay, I will." However, after sitting at the dining table and looking at her favorite dishes, Silvia still did not have an appetite. She did not feel like eating anything at all.
Levi, who did not notice it, was still eagerly filling up her dinner plate. Silvia did not want to disappoint him, so she ate some of it.
"It‘s okay if you don't feel like eating." Andrew grabbed Silvia's hand and said to the boys, "Levi, Julien, I'll take care of her. You two can go back to your room first."
"Andrew, don't think that we don't know what's going on. You're probably going to bully Sister Silvia again once we leave. This won't do. We'll definitely not leave her alone this time." Levi thought that Silvia was not looking well because of Andrew. Therefore, he wanted to stay back and protect Silvia.
Andrew felt a little helpless as he said, "I'm not going to bully her."
It really warmed the cockles of Silvia's heart to see that Levi was being so protective of herself. "Levi, Julien, we've already made up. He's not going to bully me anymore. Go, you guys should go to bed already."
"But... okay, we’ll go back to our room first. If there is anything, make sure you come to us, okay?" Levi still could not feel at ease, but looking at the gentle smile on Silvia's face, he chose to believe her. He chose to believe that Andrew was still someone who would cherish her and treat her well.
After sending the boys to their room, Silvia could no longer force a smile on her face. She said feebly, "I'm feeling a little tired. I want to go back to my room first."
"I'll come with you." Andrew stood up and carried her into his arms. Silvia was so startled by his actions that she immediately stretched out her arms and wrapped them tightly around his neck. “Andrew, I'm really tired tonight. Don't mess around, okay?"
"What do you think I was going to do?" Andrew wanted to carry her back to the room because he noticed that she was looking very tired.
However, this woman obviously saw him as an animal and even thought that he was going to do something to her.
"I know I could always feel at ease whenever you're here by my side." Silvia leaned against his chest. His warm embrace had given her a strong sense of security, which she was very much lacking at this moment.
"What a silly woman!" Andrew was satisfied with this answer so he could not help but to carry her tighter in his arms.
After returning to her room, Silvia immediately went to the bathroom and took a bath. When she came out, her forehead was covered with sweat and she was even swaying as she walked. It looked as if she was going to fall on to the ground at any time. Luckily, Andrew noticed it in time and caught her from hitting the floor.
"Silvia, are you not feeling well?" Andrew's heart wrenched as he looked at Silvia, who was covered in cold sweat. "I'll send you to the hospital right away."
Silvia shook her head. "No, I'm fine..."
Andrew couldn't help but pick Silvia up and strode out of the room. "You're sweating so much because of the pain. How could you say you're fine?"
"It's... it's because of my period." Silvia was embarrassed to say it out loud. However, if she didn't say it, Andrew would definitely bring her to the hospital again.
The previous time, when she thought that she was pregnant, Andrew immediately brought her to the hospital. If she were to go to the hospital just because of her period this time, she really did not know how she would face the doctors and nurses at the hospital.
So, she must not let him leave the room!
Andrew was slightly stunned. He asked, "Really? That's what happens when you're on your period?"
"I never had cramps before this, but my cycle was messed up so that's why I'm getting the cramps this time." To stop Andrew from taking her to the hospital, Silvia had no choice but to patiently explain it to him while enduring the pain.
CHAPTER 1280
"As long as I am here, I'll make sure that you'll never have to experience the pain again." Andrew carried Silvia back to the room and gently put her on the bed. "Lie down and don't move. I'll try to think of something to deal with your cramps."
"I'll probably be fine after some rest. You don't have to be too anxious about it." Silvia had never experienced such a situation, nor would she pay attention to such things before this. So, when she got the cramps, she was at a loss. Fortunately, Andrew was by her side. She had his chiselled chest to lean on. With him by her side, she was starting to feel a little better.
"Lie down and don't move." Andrew pulled the quilt and covered it over her body. After that, he turned around. When he was about to leave, Silvia quickly reached out her hand and grabbed him. "Umm..."
Silvia's face was already flushed and she still could not speak her mind. However, Andrew was being very patient with her. "What's the matter, just tell me about it."
"Well... I ran out of pads at home and it's not quite convenient for me to go out and get them now. Could you please go get some for me?" After hesitating for a while, Silvia finally said it in embarrassment.
After all, a man, especially a young master like Andrew, would probably feel ashamed to do that, so he might actually refuse her. However, he was the only person Silvia could ask help from at this moment. After saying her request out loud, she anxiously waited for Andrew's reply.
"You‘re unwell! So why are you bothering about makeup pads? Auntie Cherry will get some for you next time. By the way, let me ask Auntie Cherry to prepare some hot soup for you. It will warm your stomach and you'd feel better after that." Hearing his answer, Silvia suddenly felt all the energy in her body drained away...
She was telling him that she needed sanitary pads, but he completely misunderstood her and thought she wanted makeup cotton pads! Silvia was flabbergasted.
Did she have to explain it that literally to him so he would understand?
"Don't glare at me like this, be good," Andrew stuffed her hand under the quilt and ignored the exasperated look on her face. "Wait here, I'll ask Auntie Cherry to get it ready now."
Silvia was totally speechless. How could this man be so slow witted?
After stepping out of the room, Andrew did not look for Auntie Cherry first. Instead, he dialed Dr. Thames' phone number. "Menstrual cramps. How should I deal with it?"
Dr. Thames, who was on the other end of the call, did not expect Andrew would ask her this question. She was stunned for quite some time before she had finally come back to her senses. "Master Andrew, is Miss Turner not feeling well?"
"Yes." Andrew nodded.
"It's quite a common symptom among women. You can make her some ginger tea for her..." Speaking of this, Dr. Thames suddenly paused. "Master Andrew, why don't I go over and have a look at Miss Turner? It's usually not a big deal to have cramps, but it's also something that we shouldn't overlook. Miss Turner is still young, we should treat it now, or else it might become a bigger problem in the future."
There were two reasons why Dr. Thames had offered a medical visit. One of the reasons was she did not want to miss any chance to meet Andrew, while the other was that she must show concern for her employer's wife. Otherwise, how could she be considered as a qualified private doctor?
"Be here in ten minutes." After saying that, Andrew hung up the phone. In front of Dr. Thames, he would always be a man who was as cold as ice. He would even omit all the extra formalities whenever he spoke to her.
The moment Dr. Thames realized that Andrew had hung up on her, she was so furious that she immediately threw her phone away. "Damn it. Silvia, you little bitch, just wait and see. I will definitely get rid of you soon."
After venting her anger, Dr. Thames calmed down. She picked up the mobile phone that she had thrown away and said to herself, "Little bitch, just f*cking wait and see what I'll do to you."
It wouldn't be long until she could finally get rid of the thorn in her side and get the man she had always wanted. Andrew was hers, and he could only belong to her. No one else could touch him.
Auntie Cherry, who was preparing to return to her room, saw that Andrew was coming down the stairs. She quickly turned around and asked politely, "Master Andrew, is there anything else I can do for you?"
"I don't know why Silvia would ask me to go get her makeup pads or something in the middle of the night." Andrew told Auntie Cherry. "By the way Auntie Cherry, she's having cramps. Do you know what she should eat during her period?"
Auntie Cherry was a woman, and some things, only a woman could understand. Why would Silvia be in the mood to think about makeup pads when she was having menstrual cramps?
Thus, Auntie Cherry was absolutely certain that the 'pad' Silvia was referring to must be sanitary pads. It just so happened that Andrew was ignorant about it and actually thought that Silvia wanted him to go get some 'pad' at this hour.
It was really funny to even think about it, but Auntie Cherry did not dare to laugh. She could only hold it in and said, "Master Andrew, I think Miss Turner does not need that... But something else instead...“
"What does she need?" Andrew raised his eyebrows in confusion.
"Master Andrew, if I'm not mistaken, Miss Turner needed some sanitary products."
Oh no, Auntie Cherry could not hold her laughter any longer. She had to find a way to get out of that place, or else she might get punished if she were to let out a laugh. "Master Andrew, I'll go out and buy some for her now."
Now that she had already explained it to this extent, there might actually be something wrong with Andrew's head if he still could not get what she meant.
He spoke nonchalantly, "Auntie Cherry, could you please go keep an eye on her for me? I'll go get it myself." Andrew thought that if it was something that Silvia needed, it would be better for him to get it himself.
After watching Andrew leave the house, Auntie Cherry immediately went to the kitchen to make a cup of ginger tea for Silvia. Just as she was stepping out of the kitchen, she bumped into Dr. Thames, who was rushing over. "Dr. Thames, why are you here at this hour?"
"Master Andrew called me and asked me to have a look at Miss Turner." In Dr. Thames' opinion, there was no need for her to explain to a servant like Auntie Cherry. However, as long as she had not gotten her hands on Andrew, any inappropriate action would make these people a stumbling stone to her road to success. Hence, she would not offend Auntie Cherry and she would still answer politely.
"I see." In front of Auntie Cherry, Dr. Thames had always played the role of a professional and intelligent doctor, so Auntie Cherry had always had a good impression of her. "I've prepared some ginger tea for Miss Turner. Let's go see her together."
"Is this for Miss Turner?" A ferocious look flashed in Dr. Thames's eyes as she looked at the cup of tea in Auntie Cherry's hand. "Auntie Cherry, where is Master Andrew? Is he not home?"
"Master Andrew went out to get some supplies for Miss Turner." When it came to this matter, Auntie Cherry's face was full of smiles. "Master Andrew really dotes on Miss Turner. He even went to buy sanitary products for her."
"Yeah, he really doted on Miss Turner..." When Dr. Thames heard these words, she really wished that Silvia would die at that instant. However, she still had to put on a friendly smile. "Auntie Cherry, I'm going up to see Miss Turner now. I'll take this tea to her then."
