Chapter 1140 What A Fool (1/2)

”Okay!”

said Emily just before Jacob picked her up in his arms. As she put both arms around his neck, she couldn't be happier at this moment.

They were going back home.

They were finally going back home to their children.

Emily was really happy that she could finally call it their home again.

After what had seemed like an impossibility, the thought of everything going back to the way it had used to be made Emily feel relieved.

Jacob was thoughtful enough to drive slowly on their way back because he didn't want Emily to get carsick. Just as they were about to take the last turn towards their house, suddenly, a woman stormed out from the front gate and jumped in front of their car. If Jacob had not slowed down and hit the brakes on time, she might have suffered a fatal injury at the very least.

”What's going on?”

Emily's eyes widened in shock. Although the car stopped just in time, the impact shook the car and made a loud thudding noise. Emily's face turned pale with fear and she tried to get out of the car as quickly as possible to see if the woman was still breathing. ”Jacob, call an ambulance right now!”

”Stay here! You're not going anywhere like this!”

Jacob grabbed Emily's hand and gave her a stern look. ”Just hang tight. I'll go and see what's going on. I know her,” he said, seemingly annoyed.

Jacob had seen the woman's face as soon as he had hit the brakes. It was none other than Michelle.

For some reason, Michelle was wearing a hospital patient's uniform, which puzzled Jacob.

”Ah! I see!”

Emily frowned and shook her head. The expression on Jacob's face had given Emily a hint of who the woman could be.

She gave Jacob a meaningful look and said, ”Okay, just be careful!”

Just as Jacob got out of the car, the woman stood upright, immediately confirming Emily's guess.

The cold wind blew Michelle's hair over her pale sickly face. The hospital uniform that was clearly a few sizes bigger than her size hung from her delicate frame, concealing her weak body. However, it looked like the wind could blow her off her feet at any moment.

Indeed, it was Michelle.
