Chapter 218
Second Chances Protecting Mrs. Hall
Chapter 218 Emma was dressed rather plainly at the moment, but she was no wearing the hospital gown.
Liam worried she would be uncomfortable in a hospital gown, so he specifically had the nurse give her a set of comfortable silk pajamas.
Sitting on the bed, she appeared to be a refined young girl without exuding the aura that kept people at a distance.
However, she had just been injured, so her face was pale, and her head was wrapped in bandages. She looked like a sickly beauty.
Lawson looked at Emma and muttered to himself, âThis is your girlfriend? Are you sure itâs not your niece or cousin or somethingâ
He did not dare to say the second half of the sentence out loud for fear that Liam might kill him. Fortunately, he held it back.
Liam directed his cold gaze at him and asked, âDo you see any other woman in this room?â
Lawson rubbed his nose and said naively, âIâm not a woman.â
Liam ridiculed, âEven if you were a woman, I wouldnât be interested in you.â
âWhat the hell?â said Lawson.
He thought, âIs it necessary to roast me like this when we meet?
âPLâ At this moment, the girl on the bed couldnât help but giggle. âHoney, who is he?â Emma asked as she looked at Lawson.
She could guess that Liam was familiar with the man in front of her.
Otherwise, he wouldnât make such a joke.
Liamâs tone completely changed when he spoke to Emma. âDonât mind him. Are your wounds still hurting?â
Emma replied, âMy injuries are not serious. Iâm just worried about Lane.â
Emma had calmed down emotionally and no longer showed her anxiety and sadness on her face.
But she was very worried about Lane.
Liam knew that Emma wouldnât be able to set her mind at rest if he didnât tell her about Laneâs condition.
Hence, the first thing he did was tell her about it..
Liam said. âLane is out of the wood now. With proper care, sheâll be fine. Donât worry!
Liam did not say anything else, nor did he introduce Lawson.
Feeling a bit neglected, Lawson stepped forward and introduced himself, âNice to meet you, Miss. Iâm Lawson, the doctor who performed your friendâs surgery. Sheâs fine now, but the rehabilitation process might be tough.â
Emma found his name familjar.
âAre you Lawson Kaur, the internationally renowned neurosurgoon?â Emma asked.
Lawson scratched his head and said, âHaha, the person youâre talking about has the same name as me. That should be me!â

Chapter 218 Emma knew this perion.
The was a big shot, but he sally kept a low profile and never pancipated in any awards or evaluations to avoid being dutuched and called to perform simgeries exerywhere, which would affect his research.
Howers, everyone in the field knew his name because he was the only person in the world who had refused the Grail Hero Endin Emusa was quite surprised, id She didnât expect Liam na koos many extraordinary people were readily available at his call. This made her want to reases how powerful the manâs connections were However, I heard that your friend is also attending the military school? Lawson asked tentatively.
Emma noddest Lawson continued. âThere are some things I need to tell you honestly. Lane is severely injured. Itâs a miracle that she has survived. It she trcovers well, she can return to normal life. However, if the engages in strenuous physical activities, like sports competitions or military combat, her stamina and strength will be significantly reduced by at least half, and it is bad fon ber health. So your friend may not be able to pursue a physically demanding career in the future.â
Emma was mentally prepared for it.
It Lane hadict risked her life to save Emma in the urgent situation, she wouldnât have been hurt and even suffered such severe injuries ma pursed her pale lips slightly and nodded her head without saying anything However, under the quilt, her fingers gripped the bed sheet tightly, leaving five shallow, unnoticed creases.
Liam saw the change in Emmaâs expression and said to Lawson, âAlright, sheâs tired. Go out now.â
Liamâs tone was very calm. As a childhood friend who had known Liam for more than 20 years, Lawson wisely chose not to push further and prepared to leave.
âAlright, young lady, rest well. Oh, by the way, are you really Grailâ Before leaving. Lawson finally voiced his curiosity.
He had risked getting his hand caught in the door to come in, just to see what the legendary Grail looked like ral big names in the academic world had guessed privately Some said Grail must be a reclusive, kind, and gentle old Lady in her seventies or eighties.
Others speculated she was like a shrunken dwarf who had been unjected with some mysterious substance.
There were all sorts of guesses, but no one had guessed that the real Grail was a girl with a celebrity face, looking somewha proud lancholic. She was so beautiful that people couldnât take their eyes off her.
After Lawson left, only Emma and Liam were left in the room Liam pulled a chair over and sat by her bed.
man crossed his fingers and spoke softly. âIâve found the person who caused your car accident. His name is Owen, the guy you ran into at the bar text to the mall that dayâ
âSo i was themâ Emmaâs face wasten do you want to handle this 13:07 Wed, Jul 24 GG.
Chapter 218 Emmaâs breathing deepened, and her beautiful and sharp eyes turned cold.
âThey harmed Lane. I want them to pay for it with their blood,â said Emma.
To Lane, her physical condition was like the wings of a bird.
Without a strong body, her dreams were shattered.
Emma didnât expect that even though she had helped Lane escape the tragic fate of dying from depression in her past life, Lane still faced this misfortune. Maybe everything was fated. She changed Laneâs life, and Lane repaid her by saving her life.
As for those who harmed Lane, Emma would make sure they pay the price.
Even if they didnât die, she would cripple them for life!
Owen had gone missing.
Gina went to bed early that night and didnât pay much attention to Owenâs situation.
When she woke up the next morning, she found that her son still hadnât returned home.
It wasnât unusual for Owen to be out partying and not come home for the night.
But this time, his phone remained unreachable even by noon.
Gina started to worry. After all, it was a sensitive period. If Owen caused trouble again and gave Silas and Alyssa leverage, it would be problematic.
Just as Gina was about to call a few of Owenâs close friends, she received a call from Owen himself!
