The Heiress’ Return & Revenge

Chapter 211 Despair

Luca and Aaron hurriedly chased after their mother, only to find her collapsed on the ground. Startled,

they quickly lifted her up and rushed her to the emergency room at the nearby hospital. The doctors

provided emergency treatment for Salma and examined her condition. They explained that her anger

had led to high blood pressure, which caused her to

faint.

Fortunately, she was brought in on time, and there were no major issues after receiving. treatment.

However, the doctor also advised her to be more careful in the future and to avoid losing control of her

emotions. Only then did the two brothers heave a sigh of relief.

After Salma was taken to the hospital room to rest, Luca and Aaron stayed by her bedside. Then,

Luca’s phone rang. He looked at the caller ID before he immediately answered the call. “Dad.”

“Are you with your mother? I’ve been trying to call her, but no one answered,” Steven uttered.

After watching the video his wife sent him, Steven was furious. If he had been there, he would have

broken his son’s leg.

Luca was taken aback at first. “Mom’s phone might have fallen at the spot where she fainted,” he

commented. Then he said to Aaron, who was next to him. “Hurry and go look for Mom’s phone.”

They were in a hurry to send her to the hospital earlier, so they hadn’t paid attention to the grounds

where she had fainted.

Aaron stood up. “Okay!”

Steven sounded worried on the other end of the line. “What do you mean? Did Salma faint? What

happened to her?” he asked.

Luca didn’t bother concealing anything-he told him about what happened in the hospital room after their

mom fainted. When he heard that his wife was fine, Steven breathed a sigh of relief. He was especially

angry at his fourth son and Jodie.

One was a scoundrel, and the other was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Neither one of them were good

people.

“You take good care of your mom and come back when she recovers. Get Andrew to come over to take

care of your mom and stop meddling around with Jodie.”

Luca nodded. “Yes, I’ll get Andrew to come over soon.”

It was clear that his dad was really angry this time. Andrew was in trouble, but he deserved it.

As for Jodie, his feelings towards her were more complicated now. After hanging up the phone, he

contacted Andrew and asked him to come over quickly.

In the hospital room, Andrew, who had just applied medicine to his face wound, was taken aback when

he heard that his mom had fainted, lo, Mom fainted. I’m going to go see her.”

Jodie was stunned. Isn’t she a little too fragile? However, she feigned a worried look on her face. “Ah,

why did Mom faint? Is everything okay?”

“The emergency treatment was timely, so she’s fine now. But she hasn’t woken up yet,” he said while

getting to his feet.

She pretended to be anxious as she stood up as well. “Then, I’ll go see Mom with you.” Because one of

her feet was in a cast, she couldn’t stand steady-she fell toward him.

Andrew immediately supported her. “It’s fine. You’re suffering from such a serious injury, and it’s

inconvenient for you to move around. I’ll go on my own.”

He was also afraid that his mother would wake up and get angry when she saw him and Jodie together.

Jodie pursed her lips. “Alright, I guess I would just be a burden if I tried to tag along in this state. She

gave Andrew a nudge with a worried look on her face. “You hurry along, then. You can message me

later.” Andrew helped her sit down. “Okay. Rest well. I’ll come see you later.”

Jodie nodded. “Okay.”

After Andrew left, the worry and anxiety in Jodie’s eyes disappeared. Her expression was replaced by

one of schadenfreude. She treated us so badly in the past. It serves her right to faint! Why can’t it be

more serious? What a shame.

In the meantime, Salma was still unconscious in her room after Andrew arrived.

Luca and the others looked at his miserable appearance, and they gave him sympathetic looks.

“You’ve paid quite a price for Jo,” Luca said. When they returned home, it was likely that their

ather would give him a good beating.

Andrew glanced at him. “Stop talking nonsense. The three of them teased each other for a

while

After a while, Salma woke up.

The three brothers immediately surrounded her “Mom, are you feeling better?

Salina finally regained her consciousness after passing out for a while ‘Much better. When

she saw the fourth son was also there, her face darkened. Initially, she wanted him to leave as she

didn’t want to see him, but she was also afraid that he would go look for Jodie like he did before. So,

she held her tongue back.

However, she didn’t plan to let Andrew go so easily, either.

“You and your brother still have work tomorrow, so you guys should go back to the hotel first,” she said

to Aaron and Luca. “Andrew can stay here with me.”

If Andrew could stay with Jodie, then naturally, he should be able to stay with her as well. Luca and the

others understood that their mother wanted to punish Andrew, so they played along with her.

“Alright, Mom, call us if you need anything.” As the two of them were about to leave, Andrew felt a bit

uneasy. All three of them were her sons. Why could the other two go back to the hotel to rest? Yet,

Andrew didn’t dare to object.

When Luca and the others reached the door, Salma called for them again. “I want you guys to tell

Simone about me fainting and being hospitalized tomorrow. If she wants to see me, then you guys can

bring her along.”

Although her husband told her not to actively seek out Simone anymore, Salma just really wanted to

see her biological daughter after she fell ill. It was just like when she wasn’t feeling well before, and

having her daughter by her side gave her a sense of security. When her daughter was still at home,

she would eat the healthy food that Simone cooked specially for her. Simone would cook several times

a week, and her blood pressure never rose again after eating Simone’s food. However, in recent times,

her blood pressure had started to rise and was becoming unstable.

The more I think about it, the more it seems like having a daughter is better than having a son. She

couldn’t help but feel a glimmer of hope and anticipation. Will my daughter want to come to the hospital

to visit me after hearing that I’ve fainted? Salma wondered.

This would prove that Simone still cared about her as a mother.

Do you want me to explain how you fainted?” Aaron turned around and asked Salma. He could roughly

guess what his mother was thinking. This can be an opportunity to reconnect with Simone. Considering

how much Simone cares about Mom, she’ll probably come to the hospital to visit. right? It’s just that

Mom’s reason for fainting seems a bit embarrassing to talk about.

Of course, it wasn’t embarrassing for his mother to faint, but rather, it was embarrassing to share what

his younger brother did.

Salma had a similar thought. “Just say that my blood pressure suddenly rose and that it caused me to

faint. Don’t mention the embarrassing things your younger brother did.”

Andrew felt unjustly accused. He hadn’t done anything wrong, so why was he being

humiliated? He and Jodie were innocent, contrary to what others believed.

This sense of being wrongfully accused by his own mother caused a lot of discomfort within him.

However, he didn’t dare to say anything as he was afraid that it would cause his mother to faint again.

“Don’t worry, Mom, I understand,” Aaron said with a nod.

After the two left, Andrew was left alone in the hospital to keep watch.

Salma thought of those antagonistic mothers-in-law in TV dramas, and she decided to torment her son

a little. She made him fetch water, then complained that it was either too. hot or too cold. Occasionally,

she would get upset and throw a cup of water at him. She also made him sit on a hard, wooden stool

while telling him to watch over her.

Salma couldn’t rest comfortably, so she woke up frequently and would order Andrew to do things every

time she woke up.

She got him to fetch her water, wash her feet, massage her head, add a blanket if she felt cold, remove

the blanket if she felt hot, and so on. It wasn’t until dawn that Salma finally fell into a deep sleep.

Andrew, on the other hand, was completely sleepless after being constantly tormented. With dark

circles under his eyes and a look of despair on his face, he went to buy porridge for his mother.

Meanwhile, it was the final day of the live broadcast of the variety show, and the production. team

organized an activity. Lunch was provided by the production team. After this episode. of the variety

show, everyone waved goodbye to the live camera. The production team also gave everyone a day

and a half off. This allowed everyone to explore and have fun in the surrounding area before they all

returned home together the day after that.

Simone was discussing with others about where to go sightseeing when Aaron and Luca walked over

to her.
