Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 230

The maid stared at the shattered pieces on the floor, her face turning deathly pale.

“Are you blind?! What’s the damn rush?!” Karen, with nowhere else to vent her frustration, took it all out on the maid. “Is someone like you even fit to work at the Blackwood estate?!”

“I… I…” The maid trembled uncontrollably. Even though it was Karen who had rushed out and bumped into her, she was now forced to bow repeatedly and apologize.

“You, you, what about you!” Karen raised her hand to slap the maid.

“Miss Karen.”

Suddenly, Patton’s voice cut in.

He saw the mess on the floor and the trembling maid, and his brow furrowed slightly. “What happened?”

Although Patton was just a butler, he had been by old Mr. Blackwood’s side for decades. Often, his mere presence was enough to represent the patriarch.

Even the defiant Karen had to address him respectfully. “Patton, she wasn’t looking… she bumped into me. My shoulder still hurts…”

Patton ignored her excuse, his serious gaze sweeping over the scene. He ordered the maid, “Clean this up immediately and get a new tea set. Be quick about it! The young master’s car will be arriving any moment.”

The maid nodded frantically.

Only then did Patton turn to Karen and Isabella, his face devoid of expression. “Miss Karen, Miss Isabella, why are you still here?”

The dismissal in his voice was blatant and unapologetic.

Isabella held up the insulated container, her face wreathed in a sweet, docile smile. “Patton, please don’t be angry. Karen was just anxious… This soup was made with the extremely precious ‘EverVita Essence.’ I was just worried it would lose its freshness and that would affect its medicinal properties. Could I trouble you to check again if Old Mr. Blackwood is awake?”

Patton’s gaze swept over the container before he extended his hand impassively. “Miss Isabella, you can leave the soup with me. When the master wakes up, I will deliver it to him on your behalf.”

Isabella’s expression changed slightly.
