True Love Deserves a Second Chance
Chapter 24 Framed

Joey had not yet recovered from the trauma Sebastian caused her when she was once again startled by the news of her father's critical condition.

Her mind instantly went blank, and she couldn't help but stagger back a few steps.

Alexander, noticing her distress, immediately asked, "What's wrong? Is it about your father?"

Only then did Joey remember that Alexander was her father's attending physician. She quickly replied, "Alexander, my dad, he fainted."

"Don't worry, let's go there right away."

Half an hour later, Alexander emerged from the emergency room and took off his mask to look at Joey.

"Your dad is out of danger now, but the situation is not very optimistic. The last heart valve replacement surgery wasn't done well, leading to an infection. We'll observe him for a few days, and if it doesn't improve, we'll have to perform another valve replacement. I'll consult with more experts, so don't worry."

Joey, with a pale face, looked at Alexander and said, "Thank you."

Alexander chuckled softly. "I'm a doctor. Saving lives is my duty, and it has nothing to do with Sebastian. Don't worry."

Joey forced a smile and said, "I know, but I'm still grateful to you."

"Alright, if you want to show your gratitude, treat me to a meal when your father gets better."

"Okay."

"Take good care of him. Don't let his emotions fluctuate too much. It's not good for his condition to be unstable."

Joey stood by her father's bedside, her expression grave. Her father's sudden deterioration made her suspicious. She asked in a hoarse voice, "Julian, did my dad talk to anyone earlier?"

Julian frowned at her and replied, "When I arrived, Isabella had just left the room. I suspect she told your dad about your miscarriage."

Joey clenched her fists tightly, a hint of fierceness appearing in her once beautiful eyes. Her father had always cherished her like a treasure.

How could he possibly withstand the double blow of replaceing out that she had been framed by her family to be Sebastian's lover for three years and that she had lost a child?

Isabella must have calculated all of this, revealing the truth to her father first and then giving Sebastian the fake report. She wanted to push her to the brink!

'Isabella...' Joey silently repeated her name in her heart.

At the bar, Isabella celebrated her victories. Not only did she make Sebastian hate Joey, but she also worsened Joey's father's condition. She even disrupted the Blackwood family's business. She didn't believe that Joey had any chance of turning the tables. This was the consequence of competing with her for a man!

Isabella's eyes were filled with ruthlessness, and a disdainful smile played on her lips.

As she entered the restroom, she happened to see Joey leaning over the sink, vomiting.

She clicked her tongue a few times and sarcastically said, "Oh, even though you've lost the child, you still have morning sickness. What a pity. Even if you vomit out your intestines, Sebastian won't feel sorry for you. After all, you're the one who aborted his child!"

Joey had come to meet clients today to save her father's company. She never expected these people to be so malicious, taking turns to make her drink.

What's worse, as she passed by a private room earlier, she overheard Sebastian talking to someone. He said he had never liked her and called her his pet canary.

Joey was already feeling agitated, and now Isabella came to provoke her, causing her suppressed emotions to explode.

She glared at Isabella with bloodshot eyes, a fierce smile playing on her lips. "It was you who tampered with the medical records, and who told my dad about my child, wasn't it?"

Isabella chuckled dismissively. "Yes, I wanted Sebastian to abandon you, to destroy your family. You were the one who overestimated yourself, trying to steal my man! I gave you a chance to leave him, but you didn't listen to me. Don't blame me for being ruthless!"

As she spoke, she slowly approached Joey, her eyes filled with undisguised satisfaction.

Joey bit her lip hard, a cold smile on her face. "Isabella, has anyone ever told you that what goes around, comes around?"
