That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

As soon as they walked into the examination room, they saw Emma with half of her shoulder bare, wrapped in layers of bandages.

Beatrice and Lily stood beside her, anxiously looking at the doctor. “Doctor, how is Emma’s injury? Is it serious?”

The doctor glanced at Victor standing at the door before turning back to explain to the two women, “Miss Thornton’s injury is not too serious. She has a fractured arm that will need some time to heal, and there are abrasions on her shoulder. The abrasions are extensive, and some areas are quite deep, which might leave scars.”

Everyone was stunned at these words.

Beatrice was the first to react. She looked down at the bandages on her daughter’s shoulder, filled with disbelief. “Is the area really that large?”

The doctor nodded.

Emma sat in the chair with a calm expression, but inside she was full of frustration.

She had indeed intended to use a self-inflicted injury as a strategy but hadn’t expected to hurt herself so severely.

During the examination, the doctor had already told her this, and she had seen the injuries herself without the bandages, it was truly shocking.

However, what was done was done, and the injuries couldn’t be undone.

She only regretted that the doctor had bandaged her up too early, not allowing Lily to see the wounds firsthand, which would have deepened her guilt!

Even without seeing it herself, Lily felt immensely guilty after hearing the doctor’s words. “Isn’t there any way to avoid scarring? No matter the cost!”

The doctor looked at them with difficulty. “There is a way, but Miss Thornton would have to endure some hardship.”

“What way?” Beatrice asked.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

The doctor replied, “After the wounds heal, she can undergo a skin graft surgery. I can recommend a hospital where the surgical marks would be virtually invisible.”

At these words, Beatrice’s expression changed. “What’s the use of that? Even if she has surgery, it only covers the shoulder scars. The grafted area will still have scars! My daughter was perfectly fine before, now she suddenly has such a large scar…”

Seeing Lily’s increasingly irrational words, Emma frowned slightly and interrupted her. “Mom, it’s nothing, just a few scars. They’re not on my face. I’ll just wear fewer off-shoulder clothes in the future.”

After speaking, she glanced at Lily’s expression out of the corner of her eye.

Seeing her so understanding, Lily felt even more guilty. “Emma got hurt saving me. Don’t worry, I will take responsibility.”

Beatrice understood her daughter’s intention and her expression gradually turned sorrowful. “It’s not the scars that I mind so much. What I care about is that Emma is already at this age and now has such a large scar. Others will definitely mind it. How will Emma get married then?”

As she spoke, her eyes began to redden.

Emma felt relieved in her heart but pretended to comfort her mother lightly. “Don’t worry. I believe that someone who truly likes me won’t mind these things, just like I…”

At this point, Emma subconsciously glanced at Lily beside her, her expression turning bitter.

Although she didn’t say it out loud, everyone understood.

Just like how she had liked Victor for many years without minding that he never truly cared for her.

Lily was deeply moved and turned to look at Victor with a heartfelt tone. “Emma got hurt because of me. During this time, you must take good care of her for me as a way of repaying her for saving my life.”
