Chapter 849 Getting Caught

Isabella’s eyes were filled with despair as she watched the trickle of her blood turn into a stream. Her face became paler, and a burning desire within her made her twitch involuntarily.

She wriggled over to grab Kurt with her other hand. “I’m begging you, Kurt. Take me to the hospital.” Seeing that it was almost time, Kurt started the car and quickly drove to the hospital.

He stopped the car at the hospital entrance, then produced a camera and started recording. As he undid her top, Isabella grabbed his hands reflexively. “Kurt, what are you doing?” she murmured in a daze.

Kurt continued to unbutton her blouse with a blank expression. Isabella’s eyes turned misty as his bare skin brushed against hers.

A trace of disgust flashed in Kurt’s eyes as he watched her writhe, but his hands did not stop moving as he ended up with plenty of footage by the time he was done.

After that, he called the hospital, informed them of her location, and swiftly alighted from the car. He then stood in the shadows and watched as the medical staff ran out to carry the disheveled Isabella into the hospital.

“What did you say? Isabella is in the hospital and was… What’s going on? You’d better explain yourself.” Olivia glanced at Amelia, who had brought Tony over, and swallowed the word “drugged” in her interrogation of the person on the other end of the line.

The person on the other end said something, to which Olivia replied calmly, “Don’t worry. The Walkers will be there soon. I have to care for my grandson and I don’t have the time to go over.”

With that, she hung up without another word.

Taking in the older woman’s unpleasant expression, Amelia asked, “What’s the matter, Mom? I heard you mentioning Ms. Walker’s name. Is she all right?”

Olivia sighed. “She was drugged and is currently making a scene in the hospital. The doctor wanted to pump her stomach, but she grabbed his hand and forced herself onto him, thoroughly embarrassing herself. I wonder who did such a wicked thing.”

Amelia’s eyes flashed. Although she felt her heart leap with satisfaction, she said, “I think you should go and see her, Mom. You did acknowledge her as your goddaughter, and she is also the eldest daughter of your in-laws. We can’t justify not paying her a visit.”

Olivia gazed at Amelia, puzzled.

“I won’t come along if you think my intentions aren’t sincere, Mom,” Amelia said with a smile. “I’ll take Tony home instead.”

Olivia beckoned Tony to go over. “I don’t doubt you. You are my daughter-in-law and Tony’s mother. Compared to you, Isabella is just an outsider.”

Tony ran to Olivia’s arms and reached out to smooth the wrinkles between her brows. “Don’t frown, Grandma,” he chirruped, “or you won’t look pretty.”

Olivia laughed heartily and picked him up. “Come. I’ll take you to the hospital.”

Tony frowned, and Olivia stroked his little nose. “What’s the matter? You don’t like hospitals?”

Tony nodded honestly. “I don’t like them. They smell awful. Can we not go to the hospital, Grandma?”
