Chapter 412

That night, just as Celeste was getting ready to leave work, she received a call from Jordyn.

Since tomorrow was Saturday, Celeste guessed Jordyn probably wanted to visit her. But she wouldn’t be free.

She had plans to visit the nursing home with Betty and the others to discuss her mother’s treatment and medication with the

doctor.

So, she didn’t answer Jordyn’s call.

On Saturday, when she arrived at the nursing home, Celeste found that Isabelle looked even thinner than the last time they had seen her. Her hair was dry, and her face had lost all color.

The doctor explained, “The psychiatric medication she was on earlier has a certain level of toxicity to the liver and kidneys.

“It wasn’t an issue before, but given her current organ failure, it’s no longer suitable. So, we’ve stopped part of her medication. “Her mental state has been very poor these past few days, and on top of that, she’s taking antibiotics for organ failure. Her body is under tremendous stress…”

Celeste tightened her grip on her bag and nodded in understanding.

Afterward, she and Ivan talked with the doctor for a long time. They only left the nursing home at noon.

As they were leaving, Jordyn called again. But, Celeste pressed her lips together and declined the call.
