Chapter 233 Grandma Has a Heart Attack
Ruth was startled awake by Rosa's shout, when she looked up and saw that it was Belle and Rosa
standing in front of her, she breathed a sigh of relief, put away the medicine bottle in her hand and said
with a smile, "So it's Mrs. Harvey and Miss Rosa, please go in."
"Ruth, what are you holding in your hand?" Rosa was curious when she saw Ruth quickly put away the
things in her hands upon seeing them, and fluttered her big eyes as she asked.
"Nothing." Ruth smiled and said, "It's the medicine Grandma is taking."
"Oh." Rosa nodded, and stopped asking questions.
"Ruth, is Grandma's heart condition better?" Belle asked with a deep, pensive gaze.
Ruth's face was solemn as she nodded and said solemnly, "Grandma is old and naturally has heart
problem, but it's nothing serious anymore, please don't worry."
"Thank for your careful care." Belle sighed with relief and said from the bottom of her heart.
"It's my job." Ruth smiled modestly and led them in.
Belle and Rosa got down to work.
The morning passed quickly as they discussed the New Year's banquet, and then Lennox came over to
report on his work.
It was close to noon, and Rosa had been busy all morning, so she followed the designer to the central
island.
Belle signed the list of food items to be purchased, and then she organized her books and prepared to
go back to Fragrance Garden for lunch.
When she looked up, she saw Ruth walking in.
"Mrs. Harvey, eat here, I've prepared everything for you." Ruth said with a smile.
Belle didn't hesitate and nodded her head and agreed.
The dining room in Ink Garden had bright windows and clear windows.
A sumptuous table of meals was being laid out on the dining room, each dish placed on the cooker now NôvelDrama.Org © content.
cooking, steaming with heat and overflowing with fragrance.
Belle's stomach rumbled.
Her appetite had improved after her pregnancy sickness had subsided. Even she threw up after eating,
Belle insisted on eating something.
"Mr. Harvey, you must be hungry, and it's cold, hurry up and eat." Ruth stood to the side and said
thoughtfully.
"Okay, Ruth, let's eat together." Belle graciously sat down and said towards her.
Ruth smiled and graciously sat down as well.
"Ruth, there are no outsiders here, you can go to the point." Soon after finishing the meal, Belle got up
and made two cups of hot tea, handing one of them to Ruth before speaking.
"Thank you, Mrs. Harvey." Ruth reached out to accept the cup of water handed over by Belle and then
hurriedly thanked her, "Mrs. Harvey, you are really wise, nothing can be hidden from your eyes."
Ruth did not expect that Belle would be so quick to see what she was thinking, smiled appreciatively
and led her to the lounge inside.
"Ruth, is it something to do with Grandma's heart condition?" Belle had just entered the lounge when
she stopped laughing and asked in a serious and earnest manner.
The look on Ruth's face in the corridor this morning was obvious to Belle, and she had believed her
words, thinking that her grandmother's illness would be fine, but when Ruth had deliberately left her for
lunch, she anticipated that something was going to come to her alone.
When Ruth heard Belle's question, she became serious. She looked around, closed the door of the
room tightly and said in a lowered voice, "Mrs. Harvey, you really guessed right, there is something
suspicious about Madam's heart disease."
Belle's heart tightened and she hurriedly said, "Ruth, tell me about it."
"It's a long story." Ruth sighed and said, "The day before yesterday in the middle of the night, Madam's
heart suddenly became uncomfortable, she was gasping for air and screaming that it was unbearable. I
gave her the medicine, and she became better. Last night, I didn't dare to be careless and slept in
Madam's room. In the middle of the night, Madam's heart became uncomfortable again and she
couldn't catch her breath. I heard the movement and got up to check, I was surprised to see that her
hands were opening, and her face darkened, this is the sigh of heart attack. I took first aid measures,
helped her to breathe and gave her first aid medicine, and only then did her condition stabilise."
At this, Belle asked with worry, "Ruth, how is Granma's heart? She should be sent to the hospital.”
"She is old and it is normal that she would have a heart problem. I was scared and I had to call
someone to take her to the hospital, but when Madam woke up, she said she didn't want to alert
others. I am just a servant, so I can do nothing about it, so I want your advice.” Ruth said with
embarrassment.
Belle was silent.
Grandma did not want to go to the hospital, for she knew that she was too old to go to the hospital, and
she did not want the people of Harvey Mansion to know that it would cause panic.
"If Grandma really doesn't want to go to the hospital, then we can invite a famous doctor to come into
Harvey Mansion to see grandma." Belle pondered and suggested.
"Mrs. Harvey, there's something I don't know if I should say." Ruth hesitated before speaking up
decisively.
"What is it? Please go ahead." Belle was taken aback and her heart sank, with this demeanour, Ruth
seemed to have another hidden agenda, and she asked solemnly.
"Old lady has a heart problem for a long time, but it has been under well control, but she became
uncomfortable these days and it seemed to be serious. I think it's strange, I've been giving her these
medicines every day, there's no reason for her to have such a serious condition. This morning when I
gave her the medicine, I noticed that the colour of the medicine was not right, and when I took it out, I
found that the medicine in the bottle had been changed.” Ruth said sorrowfully, her heart full of fear, the
matter had come to this, she could not bear the consequences, had to tell Belle.
"What?" Belle was so shocked to hear this that she stood there speechless.
This was too unbelievable!
Who had the guts to do this?
Even dared to harm grandmother, it was horrible.
This was a crime, and Sophia would be killed. The people in this Harvey Mansion were so
unpredictable that Belle only felt chills running through her body.
"Then do you know who did this?" Belle asked in surprise after her shock had subsided.
"I don't know, I really can't think of who did it." Ruth shook her head, then took out two medicine bottles
from her pocket and handed them over, saying nervously.
"Mrs. Harvey, look, these two medicines have been changed."
Belle took them, they were the white bottles that she and Rosa had been holding when they came
across Ruth in the corridor this morning. She stood there in daze, like she had suspected something.
Belle thought it might be that Sophia had a worse situation, but she did not expect such an outcome.
She flipped through the instruction of the medicine bottle, it was imported medicine, and when she read
it, she knew that it was a key medicine, in reality, she didn't know anything about medicine either, she
just stared at it with a frown.
"This medicine should be white, but it is not yellow. I have been giving these pills to Madam for years,
there is no way I could be wrong, and I am a doctor myself, so I can't even get these pills wrong." Ruth
took out two kinds of pills from her hand, one yellow and one white, and put them in her palm, the
difference was huge.
Belle's face became even gloomier.
At this point, it wasn't just shock, it was fear and anger.
If this was really a deliberate change, then it was a deliberate murder, it was simply too horrible!
Just the thought of it sent a shiver down her spine.
"How many other people know about this?" She asked, lowering her voice after a moment's thought.
"Apart from you and me, no one knows yet, and I am still considering whether to tell Madam." Ruth was
in a sullen mood and said with deliberation.
"Tell her." After only a moment's thought, Belle immediately made a decision, "This must be told to
grandmother, don't worry, grandmother has been through thick and thin, besides, she is still very clear-
headed, I she will be able to stand it, and will have a clear judgment. Since someone is already after
Grandma, they won't stop until they get what they want, and when Grandma finds out, she'll be
prepared in her heart, and maybe she'll even have a sense of perspective."
"Well, that's a fair point." Hearing these words from Belle, which matched her own thoughts, Ruth
nodded, "Mrs. Harvey, please come with me and tell Sophia about this."
They could only do so, maybe Madam still knew something inside that they did not know, at that
moment, Belle nodded her head.
The two of them walked towards Madam's bedroom.
As usual, Sophia was sitting on the soft chair in her bedroom with her eyes closed.
"You're here." Just as Belle and Ruth walked in, she opened her eyes.
Belle secretly sighed. Sophia really did still have a clear ear.
"Grandma, how is your health now?" Belle asked softly as she approached.
"Belle, come here." Sophia smiled and extended her hand towards her.
Belle took hold of her wrinkled hand, saddened, "Grandma."
She called out softly again.
"Belle, don't worry, I won't die for a while yet." Sophia smiled lovingly, the expression on her face was
calm and bland.
"Grandma, I want to take you to the hospital." Belle came closer and said seriously.
"No need, there's not much point in going to the hospital for me at this old age." Sophia smiled
fearlessly, "Besides, my son is still lying there in this hospital, and it will only upset me."
Belle's heart sank, thinking of Hudson and even more so of her mother, tears almost fell down her face,
her heart was so sad.
