“Ms. Bernice, Miss Emma, Mr. Deon has sent the bird’s nest soup,” a servant’s voice came from the door.
Bernice sat up and said unhappily, “Couldn’t he send something else?”
Deon’s soft voice came from the door, “Ask her what she wants to eat.”
Immediately after, the servant asked, “What would you like to eat?”
Bernice stared at the door and said after a long time, “Doesn’t he know what I want to eat?”
Emma held back her laughter, got out of bed and walked to the door.
“She likes to eat braised pork, stewed meatballs and steamed yellow croaker….” Deon was listing the dishes, “You go and make these first. I’ll come up with something else….”
Emma opened the door.
Deon stopped before he could finish the sentence.
He stared at Emma, then frowned at the servant in front of him and said, “Go and make something else.”
The servant quickly nodded and carried the bird’s nest soup away.
Seeing that Emma had opened the door, Bernice felt that she should not stay in bed anymore. She put on a blanket and got off bed. When she met Deon, she only slightly glanced at him, looking extremely arrogant.
However, Deon was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled and asked, “Are you still suffering from the jet lag? Did you sleep well? Are you satisfied with the food?”
“I’m fine,” Bernice said impatiently.
Emma smiled and said to them, “I’ll leave you two to talk.”
Bernice immediately pulled her, “Where are you going?”
Deon also asked nervously, “Where are you going?”
Emma was surprised. Then she realized that they must think that she was going to run away from home again. She explained, “I’m just going to the kitchen. I want to see if there is something else to eat.”
Deon heaved a sigh of relief, “Alright.”
“Wait for me. I’ll go with you.” Bernice went into the room to get changed.
Emma stood there and winked at Deon. Then, she closed the door and walked out gently. Not long after, she heard Bernice’s voice, “What are you doing in here? Get lost!”
“Sorry, I was wrong…,” Deon pleaded for mercy.
Emma looked at the sky. It was a sunny day. Collin would probably take Stony out to play.
Meanwhile, Stony was in a carriage and was blindfolded by a black cloth. As the carriage went further away, he became more and more panicked. Could it be that he would never see his mother again…?
His mouth was sealed with tape so he could not shout. But he still shouted in his head again and again.
Mom….
Mom….
Emma felt a sharp pain in her heart. She frowned and rubbed her chest. Then she turned around and headed to the kitchen.
“Something happened to my friend. I’ll go take a look.”
Emily said this after hanging up the phone, and then went upstairs. Her hands trembled in panic. She sat in her room for a long while and finally calmed down.
It was just a coincidence.
It just happened to be the same as in her previous life.
However, the uneasiness in her heart gradually grew.
She hurriedly took her bag and coat and went downstairs. Maury was still sitting in the garden. Susan and the butler were cleaning up the glass cup that she had just broken. The painting on the easel stayed as she left it.
Before Harold’s car arrived, Emily had already stood at the door. Maury asked on the chair, “What friend? Male or female?”
Emily looked back at him and was really unwilling to tell him that her so-called friend was actually Eliot.
“Female,” she said.
“Is it the one you brought home last time?” Maury only remembered Emma. She was the only friend that Emily had brought home. Although Emma had a child and was pretty quiet, Maury was still very happy. After all, she was Emily’s first friend.
Emily thought for a moment before she realized that he was talking about Emma. She answered, “Yes.”
“Get along well with your friends. It’s nice of you to take care of her when she is in trouble. Don’t forget to take care of yourself, alright?” Maury said as he tilted his head and coughed.
“Dad, you should go in and lie down,” Emily said.
“Alright. I still want to go to the hospital to take a look,” Maury frowned and sighed.
What he didn’t say was that he wanted to see Elsie.
Elsie was his biological daughter and she was hospitalized because of the car accident. She may even go into a vegetative state. As for Eliot, although he was not biologically related to Maury, he was brought up by Maury. Therefore, Maury still looked forward to seeing Eliot when he was ill on the hospital bed.
Emily didn’t say anything, because Harold had already arrived. He probably ran a lot of red lights on the road. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to get here so quickly. The moment the car stopped, Emily opened the door and sat in.
Harold didn’t even greet Maury and the others. He took a sharp turn and set off.
“There is no need to be in such a rush. We are already too late,” Emily closed her eyes, “He’s in the operating room now.”
Harold answered, but he did not slow down.
On the other side, someone from the Britt Group hid in the bathroom and secretly sent a message. No one knew whom this message was to.
But not long after, the door to Elsie’s ward was opened. A person came in, probably a nurse, changed her urine bag and left.
Elsie had been lying with her eyes closed.. Then she heard her phone rang.
