Arabella knew that mixing those two medications wouldn’t cause instant diarrhea, but about half an
hour later, it would definitely trigger severe diarrhea. Those two medications were so potent that even
anti–diarrhea pills couldn’t stop them.
Martha sure was in for a rough night.
Arabella glanced up at Serena, who quickly looked down and, in her flustered state, knocked over the
mushroom soup.
“Are you alright there, Serena?” Louisa asked.
A servant came over to help Serena clean up the mess.
Serena, distracted, said, “I’m fine.”
“Arabella, you’re such a caring soul, looking out for the household help,” Kenneth said, full of praise.
“But you’ve got to remember to eat too.”
“Sure thing” Arabella served herself another bowl and ate slowly, while Serena seemed restless and
soon made an excuse to leave. Meanwhile.
Zachary had just gotten home to find his parents waiting on the living room couch, frowning.
Zachary’s father was about to lose his cool, but upon seeing his son bruised and dirty, he was taken
aback. “What happened to you? Who did this to you?” Their usually neat and tidy son was a mess. His
white shirt was dirty and stained with alcohol and blood, and his arms were covered in wounds.
“I’m fine.” All Zachary wanted to do was going upstairs, taking a shower, and washing away the whole
disastrous night.
“Hold it right there!” Zachary’s mother scolded. She looked at his injuries and angrily demanded, “Did
you go out with Yolanda tonight? What did you buy her? Why did you spend so much money? And look
at the state you’re in!” NôvelDrama.Org content.
The earlier refill of hundreds of thousands of dollars was from Zachary’s personal savings, but for the
extra money the club demanded, he had to take it from his parents‘ emergency funds.
So, not long after Zachary swiped his card, his parents received a text message notification.
“You’re not even married, and you’re already spending so much on her, even getting yourself into a
state like this! Look at you now; you’re no aristocrat. People who don’t know better might even mistake
you for a thug!”
Zachary’s mother was furious: “If you were interested in Arabella, I could understand. She has a certain
cold and aloof charm. But Yolanda? What do you see
her? Do you like her affectations or her stinginess?”
“Mom, I’m exhausted.” Zachary didn’t want to say anything else. He headed upstairs.
Zachary’s mother was livid. “Look at him.”
“Alright, alright. The lad’s all banged up; let’s leave him alone. Someone get him some medicine,” said
Zachary’s father. As he saw his wife dialing a number, he quickly asked, “What are you doing?”
“I want to know what happened tonight!”
After calling Olga and learning about the night’s events, Zachary’s mother scolded, Just as I thought,
both your daughters are no good! Zachary’s injuries–I can chalk it up to bad luck! But what about the
forty thousand tonight?”
“Over forty thousand? I have no idea what you’re talking about!” Olga was confused by her words:
“Zachary just accompanied Yoli to a classmate gathering.”
“A classmate gathering cost over forty thousand? My son isn’t even married to your daughter, and
you’re already treating him like an ATM? And withdrawing this much? People will think you haven’t
raised your daughter right!”
‘Mrs. Panter, could you please show some respect? Are you implying that my daughter is ill–bred?”
“You can still understand what I’m saying! Let me make something clear today: we, the Panter family,
don’t want Yolanda! This over forty thousand tonight can be considered a breakup fee. Don’t contact
Zachary anymore!”
