Chapter 122: Desperate
Each day passed quietly, the day after tomorrow was the day of surgery and tomorrow, Emily had to be hospitalized to prepare for surgery with Brian.
To be honest, she was very worried. She wasn’t worried about herself because the doctor had assured her that she wouldn’t be in pain, but she was worried about Brian’s probability of success.
She knows that even though surgeries are guaranteed, there will still be small mistakes that can happen.
Since the night Kevin refused to take Daisy away, Emily saw that Daisy’s eyes seemed to be avoiding her, but she didn’t care much.
“What time will you leave tomorrow?” Kevin asked while patting her back to soothe her to sleep because he saw her tossing and turning.
“I’ll start leaving at seven o’clock in the morning, I’ll have time to kiss you good morning.” She replied lazily.
“Yes, if you’re gone for a few days, you’ll make up for it for me to have sex multiple times in a row in one night, okay?” He blew gently into her ear, teasing her.
“Pervert.”
Emily turned over and crawled into Kevin’s arms, looking for some warmth to help her sleep.
These days, he doesn’t work overtime, brings many documents home for approval, and spends almost all of his free time with her, so she feels secure, believing that he has cut off that little tail.
Furthermore, Lisa also did not update any images related to him on social networks.
However, her faith turned into despair, making her heart as cold as ice when the clock just struck ten at night when Kevin received a call.
He quickly jumped out of bed, put on his pants and shirt, told her that something had happened to his friend, and needed his help, and then rushed off.
“Kevin, maybe I really lost you. I… don’t want to keep this shell anymore.” Emily sighed, quickly reaching out to wipe away the tears that had just flowed out.
During the night, Kevin did not come home and when he returned, Daisy told him that Emily had left home at six o’clock in the morning.
Last night, Emma suddenly had a high fever and her amniotic sac broke even though it was not yet her due date.
It was dark and raining heavily, so her mother couldn’t ask anyone for help and couldn’t call a taxi, so she called him.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
All night long, he stayed awake outside the emergency room. It wasn’t until this morning, when two babies were born healthy and his parents arrived that he could feel secure and run home to see his wife off. He didn’t expect she was gone.
His hands trembled as he operated the phone, finding her contact number.
“Emily, where are you? Tell the driver to stop, I’ll come pick you up.” He quickly spoke up when he heard the person on the other end of the phone pick up the phone.
“I’ve gone more than halfway. You just keep working, I’ll go for a few days and then come back. Oh, is your friend okay?” Her voice sounded softly.
“It’s okay. So when you get there, call me.”
“Yes.”
Emily put down the phone and went into the hospital with Kent and his wife. All three people went to Brian’s bedside and encouraged him.
Because Kent and his wife knew there had been animosity between Jennifer and Emily, they did not let their daughter come here during this time and forced her to stay at the company.
Besides, they still hadn’t told her that Emily was her older sister.
In the afternoon, after the doctor examined Emily one last time, she walked around the hospital to relieve herself.
While passing by the obstetrics department, hearing the sound of a baby crying, she suddenly felt lovely, her feet unconsciously approached and slowly walked across the rooms, looking around.
When she was about to return to Brian’s hospital room, passing by a room, she suddenly heard a very familiar voice.
Through the half-closed door, she was stunned to see the people inside the room, which were her parents-in-law, her husband and Emma, and two newborn children.
Her mother-in-law held a baby, and her husband held a baby, looking at them with extremely affectionate eyes, filled with love.
Her strength seemed to be drained, her whole body staggered, and she had to cling to the wall, groping to leave.
She raised her hand, calculated, and concluded that those two babies were crystallized from the love of her husband and his ex-lover.
“Oh my god, Kevin, you… what are you doing? Why are you still married to me? What are you doing?” She looked up at the sky, tears flowing like rain.
Seeing her come back with red eyes, Brian was worried and asked if it was because she was afraid that she was about to donate bone marrow to him.
She shook her head and said she had just witnessed a touching incident so she was just too emotional.
“Look at you, how old are you? Why are you like a child?” Brian held her hand and spoke gently.
“Ever since I found out I had a brother, I wanted to be a kid again.”
Brian nodded and promised that after he was healthy, he would satisfy all her demands, turn her into the happiest princess in the world, and let her enjoy her brother’s pampering.
He also hoped that by then, she and Jennifer would erase all past resentments, become good sisters to each other, and grow up together.
When dawn came again, the surgery began.
Anesthesia was injected into Emily’s body, causing Emily to gradually lose consciousness and temporarily no longer be able to think about painful things.
When she woke up, it was dark outside and when she looked next to her, she saw Brian still in a coma.
Perhaps the surgery was a success. Her tears were uncontrollable, flowing down her face and falling onto the pillow.
Before going into surgery, she turned off her phone and also told Kurt that if Kevin called, just say she was asleep and he would ask her to call back later.
She did not know that this afternoon her husband drove to that mountain area and discovered her lie.
She wasn’t at the company and Kurt couldn’t find any reasonable explanation.
After three more days, Emily left the hospital. She cannot stay here for a week as ordered by the doctor.
Her lie was discovered by her husband and for three days, he has not called her.
If possible, she wants to take this opportunity to break up with him. As long as he is angry, she will easily provoke him to sign the divorce petition.
He and Emma had children together, they were a true family, not her.
The taxi took her away from the hospital and towards the villa. The moment she approached the familiar gate, she felt like a passerby, not the owner of this place like her husband had said.
When she passed the living room and saw Kevin sitting cross-legged, staring at her, she still pretended not to see and walked past him.
“Don’t you have anything to say to me?” Kevin asked.
“If you want to ask anything, just ask.” Emily stopped and replied but did not turn her head.
“Emily, are you planning to leave me to become Brian’s bride? Where have you been these past few days? What did you do? Why did you go with the president of GE Corporation and his wife? Are you trying to please your future parents-in-law? Why are you taking birth control pills?”
Kevin stood up, walked in front of her, grabbed her hand, his eyes filled with anger.
Yesterday, exactly afternoon, when he went to the hospital to take Emma and the two babies back to their house, he saw his wife walking on the sidewalk in front of the luxury cafe with Kent and his wife. They laughed and talked happily.
Before that, when he discovered that she wasn’t at Kurt’s place, he even tricked himself into thinking that maybe she wanted to go to the beach or somewhere alone to relax, but she didn’t want to let him know.
He tricked himself into thinking that when she was in a better mood, she would return to him.
“It turns out that in your heart, I’m that bad. Okay, I’m too tired, Kevin, let’s break up, no, it’s called a divorce. Let’s get divorced.” She pulled her hand away from his, trembling as she spoke.
“What are you saying? Get divorced? Emily, you lied to me and now you want to divorce me. How could you be so cruel to me? I don’t agree, you are my wife and I am your husband, this relationship will only end when I die. I really didn’t expect you to turn your back on me because of Brian.”
At the last sentence, Kevin shouted, startling Daisy, who was hiding in the kitchen, eavesdropping.
This was the first time she witnessed him raising his voice to his wife. She also didn’t know what happened between them.
“He’s my older brother. I didn’t have an affair with him, on the contrary, you, Kevin, you raised another woman outside. What right do you have to speak loudly to me?”
Speaking of this, Emily burst into tears. He was the one at fault, but he blamed her.
The fact that Emma had two children with him was before he married her, so she did not mention it for the time being. But the relationship between him and Lisa made her heart fall into the abyss too many times.
“Older brother?”
“Right. I am Kent’s daughter. These past few days I’ve been in the hospital donating bone marrow to Brian so the doctor can perform the surgery. He has leukemia but Jennifer has heart disease and cannot donate bone marrow.”
Emily pulled the test documents out of her bag and threw them on the sofa.
Kevin quickly picked them up and quickly read each line. He doesn’t know this. Why didn’t she tell him, causing him to misunderstand and say such hurtful words to her?
Although Emily wants to divorce Kevin, she does not accept the bad things that she did not do.
Therefore, she had to explain, not to hold on to Kevin, but because she did not want to be wrongly accused and have her personality tainted because that would mean she was at fault with her parents.
“I’m sorry Emily. Why don’t you tell me? I should be the one by your side, right? How are you feeling? Are you still in pain?”
Kevin approached and tried to touch Emily, but she quickly backed away and once again repeated her request for divorce.
At this time, Kevin remembered that she had just accused him of raising women outside.
“Just now you said I was having an affair? What are you talking about, Emily? I only have you, who am I having an affair with?”
Even though Kevin questioned her, his hand still reached forward, wanting to comfort her, to stop her from crying.
“You dirty, don’t touch me. Please look at these photos. You’re dating Lisa. In the end, do you see her as someone to replace me or do you see me as someone to replace her?” Emily opened Lisa’s page, gave him the phone, and said.
The latest photos that caught Kevin’s eyes made him shocked and confused for a moment, but then his face quickly darkened, showing a dangerous look, as if he wanted to kill someone.
At the same time, Daisy was trembling while calling her daughter, went into the room, took her wallet, and ran out of the villa from the back door.
“Emily, I will give you the answer. I repeat, I only have you, my soul and body forever belong to you alone. Is someone like her worthy of climbing into bed with me?”
After saying that, Kevin took the phone and called Venn, asking if Lisa was with him. The answer he received was that she asked for leave today because she had a headache.
He hung up the phone and called Daisy, but she didn’t respond. After searching around the villa, the couple discovered she had disappeared.
The clothes in her room were still there, but the desk drawer was pulled out and there was no wallet inside, it seemed like she left in a hurry.
