Chapter 158

Frederick rushed to the mansion, only to find Laveme sitting in a wheelchair, looking like an absolute

wreck.

Her face was streaked with tears, eyes swollen, she looked downright pluful

Fredenck quickly stunde over to her, dropping to one knee he asked, “What happened?”

Layere didn’t respond, the just kept wiping away her tears.

Sadie watched this scene, her legs trembling, the was worried Mr. Winston would blame her, but she

had no choice but to gingerly report to Mr Winston

Mr Winston, Ma’ar took a tumble down the stairs. We were all preoccupied and didn’t notice until she

was already on the ground.”

“What’s the matter with you all? The lady’s not at her best, she needs someone by her side! Isn’t that

obvious?” Frederick’s voice was filled with anger.

Laverne sniffed and said, “Don’t blame them Marguente was the one who usually look care of me, it’s

normal they don’t know my habits Besides, it was my own clumsiness that caused me to fall”

Frederick immediately gently rubbed Laverne’s knee, “How do you feel now? Does it still hurt?”

Laverne lowered her head, hearing Frederick’s concern made her even more upset, “I can’t feel

anything, my legs are numb”

Numb?

What the hell!

The stairs were so high, even a young and fit person could break a bone from such a fall!

And Laverne’s legs were numb, how bad was this injury!

Frederick hurriedly asked, “Did you get it checked? Where’s the doctor?”

Sadie swallowed, too scared to articulate clearly.

“Mr. Winston, we’ve already taken Ma’am to the medical room for a check–up. But the doctor couldn’t

find anything.. the doctor said there’s no injury to her bones or muscles, but she just can’t feel any pain.

We’re worried she might have some illness…”

A flicker of guill flashed in Laverne’s eyes, but being a sharp woman, she hid it well.

She blinked and casually said, “When I was young, I used to spend long hours with my legs submerged

in mud and water, it’s caused some old issues. Every time the seasons change, my legs either hurt or

itch, now they’ve gone numb. You don’t need to worry, it’s an old problem.”

“Ma’am, how can we not worry? Your legs are numb but the doctor can’t find a cause, we have to take

this seriously! Sadie continued.

Of course, the doctor couldn’t find anything because Laverne was playing sick!

Ever since Marguerite left Sapphire Valley Estates, Laverne had been feeling uncomfortable, worried

about Marguerite’s difficulties, or the possibility of her being taken advantage of.

Every day she thought about how to bring Marguerite back, and so she often pretended to be ill,

claiming to have a fever, or a fall….

She wanted to give the impression that she needed to be cared for, and only a specific person could do

it right

But she knew Frederick was still angry, and if she directly asked for Marguerite to come back, he

definitely wouldn’t agree.

So, Laverne pondered for a moment, preparing to tackle this issue another way

“Listen, you really don’t need to worry about me. My legs will recover in a few days. It’s just that right

now, with my legs numb, I need someone to take care of me. Marguerite may have left, but others can

fill in. You could ask Yuna to look after me for a few days. She’s my granddaughter after all, she’s

bound to take care of me better than Marguerite”

Laverne believed her strategy was a win–win.

Not only would Frederick realize how good Marguerite was, but he would also see Yuna’s shortcomings

and viciousness

After all, it’s only through comparison that people feel discomfort
