Chapter 995: 280: Viola Thompson is worth it in the world _8
I still need to buy some gifts.
Having bought the gifts, Diana suddenly felt stomach ache and said, clutching her stomach, "I need to go to the washroom. Wait for me."
Rachel also needed to go to the washroom, "I'll go with you."
"Ok." Diana nodded her head.
The two went to the washroom together.
Rachel came out quickly, but Diana didn't come out for a long time because of her upset stomach.
So, she waited outside.
"Rachel."
At this moment, someone behind her called out Rachel's name.
Rachel looked back.
It was a stranger woman.
"Do we know each other?" Rachel squinted her eyes.
The woman said, "You don't know me, but I know you. And I also know that your life has changed drastically because of Viola's appearance. Honestly, I sympathize with you. You both grew up together, but now? Viola is the favorite daughter, and you?"
"Actually, Viola never considered you as her friend from the beginning. If she really thought of you as her friend, she wouldn't just watch as you were tricked by your own parents, eventually losing your chastity, and even having an abortion. Think about it, she's so clever, couldn't she really see your parents' hidden motives? She knew, but she wanted you to lose everything!"
"Also, if she really considers you as her friend, would she take away the person you love the most?"
"..."
The woman's words, sentence by sentence, caused Rachel to bite her lip tightly, her face as white as a sheet.
She remembered her recent experiences.
She was bullied by those scum...
All that could have been avoided.

Viola!
It was all because of Viola!
At this time, the woman walked up to Rachel and handed a small bottle into her hand.
"This thing is colorless and tasteless, I think...you should know what to do." After saying that, she glanced towards the entrance of the washroom, then turned and walked away.
Rachel gripped the bottle in her hand tightly.
"Rachel!"
At this moment, Diana ran over from behind.
"Diana." Rachel linked arms with Diana as if nothing had happened, "Let's go."
"Okay."
Soon, they arrived at the Thompson family.
Viola had a fever of 39 degrees and really didn't have any strength, so it was Mary who came out to receive the several people, "Is it Diana, Fiona, Flora, and Rachel? I often hear Viola mention you. Come in quickly. Viola caught a cold from staying up late playing last night. She has a fever of 39 degrees and is lying in bed right now."
The few of them politely greeted her.
Rachel was very upset.
She noticed that Mary was the last to say her name.
Why did Mary say her name last?
It must be because she looked down on her.
After all, amongst the four of them, she was the one from the humblest background.
Mary smiled and said, "You all should come over often. No need to bring anything."
This was Rachel's first visit to the Thompson Clan.
The Thompson Family Manor was big and luxurious.
It was even more magnificent than what she had seen on TV dramas.
Rachel held mixed feelings in her heart.
Some people couldn't afford a house like this in their lifetime, yet Viola didn't have to make any effort and could enjoy it.
Life?
What fairness is there to talk about?
Mrs. Thompson was sitting in the living room. Mary took the few people to say hello to Mrs. Thompson.
Mrs. Thompson smiled and nodded her head.
Her gaze fell on Rachel and she slightly frowned her eyebrows.
Somehow, she didn't quite like this girl.
Soon, Mary took a few people to Viola's bedroom.
Her bedroom was very large.
Almost 100 square meters, even larger than many people's homes.
The room was decorated in a standard princess style, filled with a romantic pink color.
Viola Thompson climbed out of bed and said, "Fiona, Diana, Rachel, Flora, you're here."
"Vio, are you okay?" Flora Tiarks was the first one to rush over.
Viola's face was a bit pale, "I'm fine."
She rarely fell ill.
At least she doesn't remember ever being sick before, this was the first time she knew that having a cold and fever was so uncomfortable.
It felt like she wasn't even herself anymore!
The four sat by the bed, chatting with Viola.
"Viola, your aunt is so beautiful and elegant!"
"Your grandmother also looks good and kind! She must have been very beautiful in her youth."
"..."
Listening to the way Diana and the others were trying to flatter her, Rachel Barton was speechless.
She wondered if they would still flatter Viola if she were not Young Miss Thompson Family.
Everything Viola owned was just because she was born into a wealthy family.
After a while, a servant brought a bowl of dark Traditional Chinese Medicine, "Miss, please drink the medicine."
Viola took the medicine bowl, without even frowning, she finished the medicine.
Seeing this, Diana exclaimed in surprise, "Vio, you're amazing! You finished it in one go, aren't you afraid of bitterness?"
Viola gave a faint smile, coughed a little and said, "Because of the cold, I can't taste anything, can't even taste the bitterness, so I can finish it in one go."
A severe cold could cause a temporary loss of taste and smell.
Just like Viola Thompson at the moment.
Sensing this, Rachel narrowed her eyes.
It seemed
Even heaven was helping her now.
Not long after, Mrs. Thompson went upstairs to see Viola, "Viola, how are you? Do you want to go to the hospital?"
"It's not necessary, I already took medicine." Viola sniffled a bit.
She was a little under the weather.
Mrs. Thompson was still somewhat worried, "Should we still go to the hospital?"
Viola smiled and said, "Granny, did you forget? I am a doctor."
Rachel snorted in her heart.
Just a cold, right?
What's the big deal?
Mrs. Thompson looked so worried that if someone who didn't know better saw her, they might think Viola was dying.
However,
Everyone dies.
It is inevitable.
Rachel tried her best to adjust her attitude, trying not to let others notice her anomaly.
Because Viola was not feeling well, the girls had lunch, said goodbye to Viola, and then left the Thompson Manor.
Mary Perryne arranged for the driver to take them home.
In the evening, Mrs. Thompson personally brought medicine to Viola's bedroom.
Although she had taken medicine at noon,
But her condition did not improve by the evening, the fever had subsided, but she was still feeling weak, her head was aching, and she could still not taste anything when she ate.
Seeing the lively and bouncing girl suddenly become like this, Mrs. Thompson's heart ached and her eyes turned red, "Viola, do we still need to go to hospital?"
Viola comforted, "Granny, it's just a small cold, I'm really okay, don't worry."
Mrs. Thompson couldn't persuade Viola and continued, "Let's make a deal. If it's not better by tomorrow morning, we'll go to the hospital immediately."
"Okay." Viola's eyes curved with a smile.
Mrs. Thompson helped Viola cover up with her quilt, "Go to sleep, I won't disturb you."
People with colds feel lethargic and sleepy, and not long after Mrs. Thompson left, Viola fell asleep.
The next morning,
Mrs. Thompson got up, just about to go check on Viola when she saw a housemaid rushing down from upstairs, "Mrs.…Mrs.…Mrs. Thompson, it's bad!"
"What happened?" Mrs. Thompson asked.
The housemaid stammered, "Mis…Mis…Miss… she…she has fainted! I…I can't wake her up no matter how much I call!"
