Chapter 823 Did I Do Something Wrong (1/2)

”Enough! No more arguing between the two of you!” Emily broke up their tense quarrel just in time, while rubbing her temples to ease the headache which throbbed there. ”Isn't it something worth celebrating that my mother has recovered?”

This time, the two men finally shut their mouths, but they stared at each other with fierce, piercing gazes, like arrows targeting foes.

”Mom.” Emily turned to Carol and said, ”Since you have almost recovered now, I can't come over and look after you every day anymore. I have other business to take care of. Please understand my situation.”

Her job was more than merely an occupation. It was her dream. Now that Carol had recovered and was no longer at any risk, Emily could be more at ease and focus on her career again.

Hearing her words, Carol felt a bit disappointed. ”Mom knows. You have been working so hard these past days... But, can I at least come and visit you at your workplace?”

”Of course you can, but only when your wounds are fully healed. So you should stay in hospital until you have fully recovered, please,” Emily promised her with a nod.

Finally, they had reached an agreement.

Actually Tyron still had something to tell Emily, but he had to swallow his words given Jacob's presence. His hatred for Jacob continued to grow and spread. How he wished he could grind Jacob under his feet once and for all!

Jacob offered to take Emily to the doctor's room, so they soon left. Seeing their backs disappearing from sight, Carol looked at Tyron asking for help, ”Tyron, what should I do? I won't be able to see Emily that often any more...”

Emily was not only her daughter, but also all of her life. At this moment Carol was immersed in anxiety and she tore up.

Tyron couldn't be less anxious than Carol, but he managed to comfort her patiently, ”I will think of a way out. I can't let Jacob get away with doing whatever he wants.”

On the other side of the hospital, Jacob took Emily to have a thorough check-up because of what had happened last night, but it turned out that there wasn't any physical problems to be detected and she was in good health. So the doctor could only prescribe Emily some medicine for neurasthenia and instructed her to get some rest.
