The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 378 Could Never Let Go

Meanwhile, Veda slammed the phone down in frustration.

Michael hadn't contacted her for days, and when he finally did, it was just for these trivial matters. He even

stood up for Emily against her. Was there really nothing else he could talk to her about? Shouldn't she be the first

person he wanted to care about?

These thoughts made Veda's anger boil over, and she clenched her teeth in frustration. Just then, her phone rang

again.

Veda answered it, and the person on the other end immediately spoke up, "Hey, Veda, how's it going with that

thing?"

She responded after hearing Veda's affirmative reply, "I knew it, you're the only one who cares about me! | can't

rely on anyone else like | can on you..."

Before Scarlett could finish her sentence, Veda cut her off, her tone sharp and unyielding. "You've got some

nerve calling me. | don't know what you're playing at. You toldto freeze Emily's cards and promised$4.2

million. Well, I've frozen her cards. When am | getting my money?"

Veda's allowance had always been tightly controlled. Mason used to give her money, and then it was Michael,

but neither provided enough for her to spend freely. So Scarlett's offer was incredibly tempting.

And all she had to do was freeze Emily's bank cards. That was no big deal for Veda. After all, with Michael away,

she had a lot of control over Smith Corporation, and Emily's cards were tied to the company's funds. Freezing

them was a piece of cake.

But she hadn't expected that within half a day of freezing the cards, she would receive a warning from Michael

instead of the $4.2 million. Now she was left with nothing but a tarnished reputation and no money.

Veda's anger grew, and she decided to lie to Scarlett. "I can prove right now that I've frozen all of Emily's cards.

Mom, you're about to go abroad. | suggest you don't meddle too much. Just transfer the $4.2 million, and we'll

still be mother and daughter."

Scarlett wasn't intimidated by Veda's words. Her tone immediately changed, and the motherly facade vanished,

replaced by a sharp, grating voice.

"Veda, you've got snerve talking tolike that! Don't forget, even if | go abroad or to another planet, I'm

still your mother!

"Fine, I'll give you the $4.2 million, but tell me, does Michael know? If he comes back, those cards can be

unfrozen! What you need to do is make sure Emily's cards are permanently frozen. Got it?" Scarlett's tone

becmore commanding.

Veda hadn't expected Scarlett to switch from polite to harsh so quickly. She had just been scolded by Michael

and now by Scarlett. Frustrated and upset, Veda hung up the phone, her dissatisfaction growing.

She directed all her anger at Emily, gritting her teeth. "Emily, why do you always ruin everything for me? Why is

it always you? Daniel sides with you, Michael sides with you. How am | supposed to see you as a true friend? |

wish | could tear you apart!"

Emily had been waiting outside the operating room all day. There was no news from inside, and the red light

above the door was becoming increasingly glaring.

Penelope had been by Emily's side, feeling deeply for her. Just moments ago, they had been happily drinking

coffee in the office, and now they were facing a major crisis. How could a girl in her twenties handle this?

As Penelope struggled to find words to comfort Emily, Abigail and Daniel arrived.

They had run into each other at the hospital entrance. Daniel had heard from a colleague about a severe assault

case at the neighboring hospital and found out it was Emily's mother, Isabella.

Daniel and Abigail rushed over and saw the devastated Emily.

Their first concern was for Emily's unborn child.

"Emily!" Abigail hurried to support Emily, seeing her lips tremble and her emotions on the brink of collapse. She

seemed swallowed by a whirlpool of despair.

Daniel's heart ached for Emily and everything she was going through. He couldn't understand why all these

terrible things kept happening to her. If he could, he would take on all her pain. It was at this moment that Daniel

realized he could never let go of Emily.

He felt a deep need to protect and care for her.

Looking around, Daniel noticed Michael was nowhere to be seen. It was always like this. Michael didn't know how

to take care of Emily, yet he claimed she was his.

Thinking about this made Daniel want to punch Michael. Seeing Emily's breakdown, Daniel was more determined

than ever. He wouldn't let Emily go this time. He would fight Michael for her.

"You're Daniel Wilson, right?"

Penelope's voice interrupted Daniel's thoughts. She looked concerned, and Daniel quickly greeted her.

"Yes, that's me."

Penelope nodded, seeming relieved. Daniel was curious how she knew him, but then Abigail greeted Penelope.

"Ms. Blair."

Penelope's eyes flickered with sympathy and sadness as she looked at Emily.

She said, "I've paid all the expenses. Abigail, I've seen you at the company a few times.

| know you're Emily's best friend. | trust you to take care of things here.

"I have to get back to the company, but I'll cback as soon as | can to help with Emily. If there's any change

with her mother, letknow immediately."

Daniel quickly exchanged contact information with Penelope. The Wilson and Watson families didn't interact

much, so Daniel hadn't known Bryan's mother was Penelope. He just saw her as Emily's kind boss.

He thanked her, speaking firmly, "Ms. Blair, don't worry. I'll take care of Emily. | won't let anyone bother or hurt

her. I'll also look after Ms. Taylor."
