Elizabeth’s POV: 

As soon as the maids put Jennifer to bed, I heard someone shouting, “Mrs.Jones, bad news! Caroline fainted!”

I felt my heart leap to my throat in an instant.I ran out as quickly as I could and found Caroline in the arms of the maid with her eyes closed.

“Hurry up! Put Caroline on the bed too and bring the first-aid kit!”

Tears welled up in my eyes, but I knew that crying wouldn’t solve the problem at hand.

“It’s all my fault! This wouldn’t have happened to her if she hadn’t saved me in the first place!”

Austin came running to us with a pale expression.

He knelt down and touched the back of his palm to her forehead before he checked her wrist and neck for a pulse.

After a few seconds, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, “There’s no need to worry.Caroline must have fallen unconscious due to stress, but she will be fine.She just needs to get some rest.”

Austin’s words gave me the respite I was searching for.

“Thank God!”

Austin turned his head to the maid and said, “Go and get two sets of clean clothes.”

I was moved by his words because I didn’t expect Austin to be so considerate.

“Austin, that’s very thoughtful of you, but you need to look after Caroline.I’ll be fine as long as there is a maid to help me,” I suggested to Austin.

However, Austin shook his head and said, “Caroline will be fine.She just needs to get some sleep, but you and Jennifer need to see a doctor as soon as possible!”

I smiled approvingly at him and said, “Don’t worry.We have brought a doctor with us.I will call for him once I change Jennifer’s clothes.”

“Okay, if you need anything, please don’t hesitate to let me know.” Austin nodded, turned around, and left.

The maid brought two sets of clothes right after he left.
