Chapter 1144

The notion of keeping family matters private was something Riley had always held dear, but at this moment, she couldn’t care less. Still, she found herself cowed by Carissa’s commanding presence.

Holding back her tears of frustration, she followed Carissa’s instructions and led her mom, sister–in–law, and aunt into the main hall of Silverstone Estate.

Caspian hadn’t finished his shift yet, so only Luna was there with a group of servants and maids, facing so many people. She wasn’t used to such a situation, so she sent someone to call for Viola.

However, when Viola heard that Carissa had arrived, she became even more unwilling to come out. In the end, it was Zoey, despite her high fever, who insisted on coming out to handle the situation.

Seeing Zoey’s condition, Carissa couldn’t help but feel a pang of sympathy. In just a few days, she had visibly lost weight. Her complexion was pale and sickly, her lips flushed with fever, and she was so weak she could barely walk without support.

Carissa had always been close to Zoey. Now knowing that she was Isaac’s sister–in–law, she felt even closer to her.

Seeing how unwell Zoey was but still coming out to handle things for Viola, Carissa said, “If Ms. Prince won’t come out, then please ask Madam Prince to come out. Why should a sick person have to work?”

“My mother–in–law is also ill, Your Grace,” Luna replied.
