Chapter

211

This scene felt strangely familiar to Rachel.

The first time she went to cause trouble for Isabel, Isabel collapsed on the ground, clutching her stomach, Tooking like she was on the verge of death. She's repeating the same act now?

Can't she come up with something new?

Hmph!

I've already studied this trick of yours. When it comes to this kind of thing, all I have to do is act faster than you

With that thought, Rachel didn't hesitate. She slapped her own face hard, using all her strength.

The force was so great that it made her lip bleed, and she screamed before collapsing to the ground.

The commotion was so intense that it immediately caught everyone's attention.

When Xander saw Isabel, pale and writhing in pain, his heart immediately leaped into his throat. Without a second thought, he rushed to her side.

"Rachel!" Ivana ran over, her face full of worry and concern, helping Rachel up from the ground.

"Are you okay?" Both Xander and Ivana asked in unison, their voices filled with concern.

"I-Ivana, I-I'm fine... Please don't blame Isabel. We just had a small misunderstanding. I'll explain everything later, and it'll be fine," Rachel said through choked sobs.

Ivana's gaze shifted to the blood at the corner of Rachel's mouth and the side of her face, swollen like a bun. Fury surged through her. She turned around abruptly and glared fiercely at Isabel.

You did this! And you're still playing the victim! Do you think everyone is blind? Do you really think this will make us believe you? Wasn't it you who slapped her?"

Isabel couldn't respond to Ivana's words anymore. Her ears were ringing, making it hard to hear clearly. The pain made her clench her teeth, and a fine layer of sweat formed on her smooth forehead. Her lower abdomen ached so much it felt as if it wasn't even her body anymore.

"Still pretending? You're- Ivana's words were cut off when she saw blood streaming down Isabel's leg.

The stark contrast of the deep red blood against her pale skin was a shocking sight.

The scene left Rachel dumbfounded.

"Isabel!" Xander's voice was low, filled with unmistakable worry and concern. Without hesitation, he lifted Isabel into his arms.
