When Cordelia rushed to the hospital, she saw Zephyr and Kate waiting at the emergency room’s entrance.
“How’s she?” she asked with concern.
He pulled her aside and whispered, “We don’t know the exact situation. When I got the call from DL’s manager, they said she fainted at the shopping mall and rolled from the stairs.”
Cordelia felt a squeeze in her heart.
“Why was she at the shopping mall?” she asked.
Zephyr was stunned. He did not think too much about it. “Isn’t it normal for a young lady to go shopping sometimes? Moreover, she’s DL’s VIP. She’s a frequent customer there.”
“I mean…” Cordelia hesitated and frowned.
She was not sure whether Zennie passing out had anything to do with Phil, but that indeed happened after they left Royal Manor.
“What’s wrong, Cordelia?”
“There’s something that I want to tell you.” She pursed her lips with a complicated look in her eyes. “We better find somewhere there’s only the two of us. Don’t let Aunt Cloud know about this yet—”
Before she was done, Kate ran over and screamed, “She’s awake! Zephyr, your sister…
“Cordelia, you’re here too?”
“Yes.” Cordelia nodded.
“Is Zennie alright, Aunt Cloud?”
“She’s fine.” Kate’s eyes were red. “She hit her head and got three stitches.”
Cordelia bit her lip. She could not help but feel sad.
“Can we go in to see her now?”
“Not yet. The doctor said we’d have to wait.” Kate shook her head and forced a smile. “This girl’s clumsy, I’ve told her many times. See, she fell really hard today! It’s good that this happened. This ought to teach her a lesson!”
