Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
However, the people in the small wooden house not only humiliated her but also took away all the valuable things from the two of them. Therefore, the two of them were penniless now, and they couldnât contact anyone without a mobile phone. They could only think of sneaking away from everyone and returning to the villa to get some clothes and money.
However, before the plan could be implemented, Mrs. Watson caught them outside the villa.
Mrs. Watson looked at her daughterâs disheveled appearance and felt both angry and disappointed.
âWhat happened to you?
Emma still wanted to quibble, but Mrs. Watson only stared into her eyes.
âTell me the truth! Emma, I hope what I heard is the truth!â
Of course, Emma didnât dare to tell her mother that they had failed to frame Le Wan and Zhai Jing and had instead been cheated and tainted.
Her pride made it impossible for her to accept her failure in front of others, so she could only explain half-truthfully,
âWe went to the small wooden house on the mountain to relax, but we didnât expect to meet a bad person and be locked in the house.â
Since she couldnât avoid losing her dignity, Emma wanted to use the Watson familyâs power to nail the two of them to death. Hence, she added fuel to the
âIt must be the Le family. They went up the mountain before us, so they might have made some arrangements on the mountain.â
Mrs. Watson didnât expect the Le family to be so bold as to attack Emma and the others in public. She was naturally furious.
However, the two childrenâs health was more important now, and the company was still in a mess. They couldnât spare anyone to deal with this matter at the moment, so they called the police station to ask Chief Elber to deal with the Le familyâs matter. In the end, they didnât expect that old man Elber would be so straightforward when he received the money, but he was dragging his feet when it came to handling the matter.
Indeed, it was better to rely on themselves than others. They had to think of other methods.
At this moment, the doctor came out after examining the two of them.
Mrs. Watson stood up.
âDoctor, how are the children?â
Although she said âchildren,â the doctor knew that Mrs. Watson was really concerned about Emma, so he briefly mentioned Serena and then focused on Emmaâs situation.
Therefore, Mrs. Watson didnât notice the strangeness and missed the opportunity to discover the truth in advance, laying the foundation for the tragedy between the two girls.
Inside the ward, Serena was also listening attentively to the doctor outside the ward. Seeing that the doctor and Mrs. Watson didnât mention anything about her condition, Serena heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, she was glad that she had made all kinds of preparations in advance, so she wouldnât be
exposed easily.
Emma didnât notice her situation. She was still thinking about how to get revenge on Lewan and the others.
Outside, Mrs. Watson heaved a sigh of relief when she learned that her daughterâs condition wasnât particularly serious. She decided to bring Emma back immediately and keep her under her watch.
âIâm sorry, Serena. I have something important to tell Emma. Can I trouble you to leave for a while?â
Mrs. Walter entered the ward and chased Serena out of the ward in a slightly impolite tone.
Obviously, she was also dissatisfied with Serena. As Emmaâs good friend, she thought that Serena should play the role of advising, but Serena obviously didnât fulfill this responsibility. Instead, she acted together with Emma.
Every parent had a filter for their children. Therefore, when their children had deviated from the norm, many parentsâ first reaction was to think that it must be someone elseâs child who had led their children astray.
Obviously, Mrs. Watson had also fallen into this filter, so she couldnât help but vent her anger on Serena.
Serena wanted to say something, but she couldnât help but tremble when she saw her sharp gaze. She whispered,
âIâm sorry, Mrs. Watson. Iâll leave now.â After saying that, she curled up and walked out of the ward.
Emma saw Serenaâs afraid look and looked at Mrs. Watson unhappily.
âMother, sheâs my friend. Please donât treat her like this.â
Seeing the door close, Mrs. Watson turned around and stared at her daughter with a dark expression.
âIf you still remember that youâre my daughter, the young miss of the Watson family, can you tell me why youâve become like this?â
Emma didnât expect her mother to be so direct and rude. Her face turned pale and her hands subconsciously grabbed the sheets tightly. She bit her lip tightly and turned her head away to avoid Mrs. Watsonâs gaze. She didnât say anything..
