Chris was now suspicious of her, hence the reason for sending her to the hospital,
She had anticipated this. Once Rebecca woke up, she would surely expose her.
In the past, Chris never doubted her. No matter what Rebecca said, he would always defend her, but this time he actually chose to believe Rebecca! Emily couldn’t accept such a huge psychological blow and angrily threw her phone against the wall.
“Rebecca, why won’t you just die already!”
HOSPITAL
After a while, Chris stood in the corridor outside Rebecca’s ward, looking troubled as he smoked a cigarette. He was lost in his thoughts, with Rebecca’s pale face constantly appearing in his mind, disturbing him.
“Chris.” Emily’s gentle and pleasant voice sounded behind him, breaking his reverie. He didn’t turn around or acknowledge her presence
While Emily felt flustered and hurriedly approached him, wrapping her arms around him. “Chris, why are you in the hospital? Are you not feeling
Chris lowered his eyes, his hands clenched in front of his waist, the bracelet adorning has wrist. A strange mix of emotions flooded his mind, and he couldn’t shake off Rebecca’s image.
“Let go, I have something to ask you,” he said, his tone firm and devoid of warmth
But Emily stubbornly refused to release her hold, rubbing his back in a coaxing manner. “No, I don’t let go. I want to hug you.”
Frowning, Chris grew annoyed and forcefully freed himself from her grasp, pulling her aside. Because of which Emily nearly stumbled in her high heels, feeling aggrieved and on the verge of tears, her eyes already red
In his memory, Chris had never been so rude to her. Emily’s heart sank, sensing that something was amiss.
Chris, not in the mood to placate her, asked directly, “Does Rebecca’s alcohol poisoning have anything to do with you?”
Emily’s expression suddenly changed upon hearing Rebecca’s condition. She wiped away her tears and feigned ignorance, pretending not to understand. “When did that happen? Could it be the day I went to Malena’s Meadow?”
“Did you spend the night there?” Chris narrowed his eyes, his voice dripping with menace,
It seemed that Rebecca hadn’t lied to him
Emily had prepared her words on the way to the hospital. She couldn’t admit her involvement fully, nor could she deny it outright
“I went there last Friday. It was my friend’s birthday. I stayed for a while, but I didn’t expect to run into Rebecca”
“And then?” Chris stared at Emily, scrutinizing her every expression.

Chris’s eyes turned dark, his voice heavy with suppressed anger. “You are not lying, are yenu Emily?”.
Emily, walking weakly towards Clarks, carefully reached out to hold his hand.
“We’ve known each other since we were young. You should knny the kind of person I am. I admit that I resented a fer she wole you int never wanted her dead. This time, it was my negligence.
I shouldn’t have left her alone in the private room. I should have been watching over her. I’m sorry, I know I was wrong. Please don’t be angry. I genuinely didn’t know she was allergic to alcohol,”
As she finished speaking, guilt overwhelmed her, mul she choked back tears, hoping for his forgiveness.
Chris withdrew his hand, pinching the bridge of his use, bis irritation palpable. For the first time, he was uncertain about whom to believe and whom to suspect.
Chris lit a cigarette but didn’t smoke it, remaining silent for a long time.
“You should go back for now. Keep a low profile and avoid causing trouble. Don’t provoke Rebecca,” he finally said.
Emily breathed a sigh of relief. Chris allowing her to leave meant she wouldn’t face any immediate consequences. She fel a glimmer of joy upon hearing his last sentence.
However, an unprecedented sense of crisis washed over her. Suddenly, she felt the need to see Rebecca
“Chris, may I visit Rebecca in the ward? This all started because of me. I owe her an explanation.”
“No need.” Chris responded without hesitation.
Emily suppressed her frustration and didn’t argue. She obediently stood up, ready to leave.
“Alright, if you don’t want me to go, I won’t go.”
On her way home, Emily grew
new angrier the more she thought about it. She felt restless without seeing Rebecca
But with Chris guarding the hospital, she couldn’t enter the ward unless he granted permission or left the premises.
Emily racked her brains, searching for a solution. Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind–the little girl, Rebeccaana
If something were to happen to Rebeccaana, how could Chris be concerned about Rebecca?
Rebeccaana had a habit of taking naps and enjoyed swinging in the garden after waking up
Before Rebeccaana stirred from her sleep. Emily hurried to her house, bringing a gift along. The maid warmly welcomed her inside
“Where is Rebeccaana?“, Emily inquired as soon as she entered the house.
“She’s still napping. Miss Emily, please wait in the living room. I’ll bring you a glass of water.”
“No need to trouble yourself. I’m not thirsty. You don’t have to worry about me. Carry on with your tasks; I’ll take a walk in the yard ”
The maid nodded and allowed her to proceed, while she got back to her work as soon as Emily left the place and decided to reach to the swing in order to accomplish her mission
And with the affirmation Emily headed straight for the swing. Sitting on it, she pretended to swing a few times. Then, when no one w retrieved a miniature electric screwdriver from her pocket
Half an hour later, Rebeccaana, wearing her red leather shoes, bounded down the stairs with the innocence of a little angel
“Granny Agatha, I want some fresh juice,” she declared as soon she opened her beauty and small eyes sparkling lika diamond in the sky Agatha quickly brought freshly squeezed orange juice to the living room, along with delicate and delicious cakes and snacks,
