Chapter 781 Dead By Tomorrow (1/2)
”Get off me!” Tyron cried out, shaking Poppi off him in disgust.
He didn't have feelings for Poppi the same way she did for him. For Tyron, she was just one of his common friends. Things went on just fine between them before. But in the past few years, she became more and more unreasonable and possessive, even trying to take him for her own property.
This behavior from her was intolerable for Tyron.
However, no matter how hard Tyron pushed and shook her off, Poppi wouldn't let him go. She held him tightly like he was her life support. And it seemed like the only way she could breathe was if he was by her side. ”Tyron, please,” she said in a softer tone. ”You won't catch me doing something like this again. Okay? I'm sorry that I misbehaved today. It's just...seeing you taking care of that woman drives me crazy since you've been so nice to her...”
Tyron said nothing, and simply looked at her coldly.
Seeing this, Poppi bit on her lower lip as tears started to flow down her cheek. ”Come on, Tyron,” she cried out, her voice thick with emotion. ”Don't you think you're being too cruel to me? If you keep ignoring me, I won't have this cut fixed and I'll bleed to death!”
Hearing this, Tyron got stressed at the thought of Poppi's influential family. With a resigned sigh, he thought of the possible consequences of her actions. He wasn't afraid of her family, but he had more important things to do right now than deal with something as trivial as that.
Thinking of this, Tyron gave in and stopped resisting. ”Come to my office and I'll dress your wound,” he said sternly. Then he walked up closer to Poppi, pointing a finger at her. ”Never pull a stunt like that again. Ever.”
With that, Poppi's sadness immediately turned into joy. As soon as Tyron turned around and led the way back to his office, a sly smile appeared on Poppi's lips.
Meanwhile, back at Emily's ward, the mess from all the commotion earlier had been cleaned up by the staff. Emily was getting some rest, although she resented the fact that she still couldn't get out of the hospital.
'What a day!
Why do I have to suffer just because that crazy woman likes Tyron?
I already have a husband and two kids. Jeez...' thought Emily.
