From Discarded Wife to Queen (Tyrone) novel Chapter 19

The hospital was crowded. Isabella waited in line to register and

didn’t leave until after getting her vaccination, it was already noon by

then.

As she walked out of the hospital, she spotted a fruit stand by the

roadside selling big, beautiful strawberries, so she bought a bag on

impulse.

Carrying the strawberries, Isabella took the elevator, walked down the

corridor, and stopped at the door of Sophia’s ward.

Sophia loved eating these, so she could use the visit as an excuse to

bring them to her. The ward door wasn’t fully closed; it was left

slightly ajar.

Isabella peeked through the crack. Sophia was curled up at the head

of the bed, hugging her knees and staring blankly out the window.

Isabella’s eyes scanned the room. Seeing that Sophia was alone, she

breathed a small sigh of relief.

Good, good. William wasn’t there.

Isabella raised her hand, just about to knock on the door-

“Isabella?”

That familiar, cold voice came from behind her, calling out her name.

Isabella jumped and quickly turned around.

“Mr. Brown…”

Damn it.

How did he appear like a ghost out of nowhere?

He wasn’t alone.

There was also a stylishly dressed young man with him.

Isabella recognized him immediately, it was Sophia’s cousin, Atticus

Brown.

When Atticus first saw Isabella, his expression froze.

His gaze swept from Isabella’s hair to the corners of her eyes, then from her eyes to her lips, basically giving Isabella a complete 360-

degree scan. Finally, he asked William in confusion, “Bro, who’s this?”

William also slowly swept his gaze across every inch of the girl’s face.

Something flickered in his eyes, but quickly disappeared without a

trace.

His thin lips parted slightly as he said calmly, “She’s the one who

saved Sophia.”

Atticus immediately caught on and excitedly moved closer. “So you’re

Sophia’s lifesaver! Hello, hello, I’m Sophia’s cousin, Atticus.”

“Hello, Isabella.”

“Are you here to see Sophia?” Atticus glanced at what she was

carrying.

“Yes.” Isabella nodded. “I brought her some fruit.”

William looked down at Isabella’s delicate arms struggling with that large bag full of strawberries, his brow furrowing almost

imperceptibly.

“Give me that. You go in.“He took the bag from Isabella’s hands.

Atticus, standing nearby, watched as William took the bag from

Isabella – their hands clearly touched and then pulled apart like

they’d been shocked…

He was absolutely stunned.

William actually touched a girl’s hand?

Wasn’t William the type who kept everyone at arm’s length, the kind

who would show a cold face even when women tried to talk to him?

Atticus rubbed his eyes.

He must be seeing things, right?

Lying on the hospital bed, Sophia noticed the young girl walking in

from outside.

“Sophia, this is Isabella, the person who helped you at the mall that

day.” William placed the strawberries on the nearby table and said

briefly,

Due to her congenital illness, Sophia had a delicate temperament and

a pure, elegant appearance.

She stared at Isabella for a while before speaking: “Thank you.”

Before she passed out that day, she had seen what Isabella looked

like. In her memory, she was a girl with very pretty features, though

she didn’t know why she had made herself look like this today.

“It was nothing, really.”

“Are you feeling better? The medicine they gave you – no side

effects?” Isabella asked.

Sophia shook her head slightly. “No, the doctor said if I’m okay after

one more day of observation, I can be discharged.”

“That’s good.”

Isabella felt relieved hearing this.

She wasn’t good at being around William, so she didn’t plan to stay

long. She turned to look at William. “Um… Mr. Brown, I have things to

do, so I’ll be going now.”

William’s expression immediately darkened..

His

gaze

fixed tightly on her face. “What do you have to do?”

Isabella: ‘It’s time I need to go home for lunch.”

William’s brows furrowed slightly as he fell silent.

Isabella thought William had unilaterally cut off their conversation,

so she turned to leave.

“Eat here.”

William’s deep voice suddenly came from behind her.

Unexpected, carrying a forceful tone.

Isabella’s steps paused.

She turned around, looking at William in confusion. “Eat here?”

“Atticus brought food from a restaurant. You can eat with me,

said.

William’s tone left no room for argument.

Like a superior assigning tasks to a subordinate.
