The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

In the hospital corridor, sunlight streamed in from the window at the end, casting a harsh glare on Emily's face. Even though it was late afternoon, the light was so intense it made her eyes ache, causing tears to flow uncontrollably.

Andrew had never seen Emily so humble, so broken.

She shakily raised her hand and then grabbed Veda's hand. Her lips trembled, and her reddened eyes filled with tears again. Large, glistening teardrops rolled down her pale cheeks.

Emily pleaded with her. "Veda, please. Let me stay. I won't bother Michael. I just want to see him wake up. Please, I'm begging you..."

Emily kept repeating "please" until her voice turned into a pitiful sob. But Veda didn't even raise an eyebrow. She just coldly said, "Didn't you want a divorce? Whether he wakes up or not has nothing to do with you."

Scarlett finally heard Veda say something she agreed with.

She lifted her head arrogantly and shouted at Emily, "Did you hear what Veda said? Michael doesn't need you. We're all here. You, unfortunate soul, should just get lost!"

Veda didn't want to argue with anyone. She knew she had to hold up the Smith family. Mason and Michael were sick, Scarlett was unreliable, and Emily was always causing trouble. Thinking about all this made her head spin.

She shook off Emily's hand and turned to Andrew. "There's no point in having so many people here. Send her home. Then come back to help Michael with the hospital admission procedures. Remember, don't let the company shareholders find out about this."

Andrew was dependable and agreed immediately.

He knew no one was calm right now, and Emily was also sick. She really shouldn't stay here. If Michael knew, he would be heartbroken.noveldrama

But Andrew couldn't bear to see Emily in such pain. He didn't know how to comfort her.

Seeing him hesitate, Veda's eyes flashed with a sharp, cold light.

"What? Can't you get her to leave?"

Andrew reluctantly mustered the courage to step forward.

At that moment, he realized how much Veda had changed.

"Mrs. Smith..." he started.

Scarlett stepped aside for Andrew.

The light appeared and disappeared in an instant.

Emily sat still in the chair, listening to Andrew trying to persuade her.

"Maybe you should go home first. You're sick too. Staying here won't help. Mr. Smith would want you to be well..."

"Emily!" Before Andrew could finish, a shout came from down the hall.

Everyone turned to see Isabella hurrying over. Isabella hadn't seen Scarlett in a long time, and now, the suppressed anger and hatred in her heart surged.

Just one sharp look from her made Scarlett retreat several steps in fear.

Andrew saw this and knew he didn't need to say more. He quietly stepped back to handle his tasks.

Veda was also at a loss. She watched as Isabella glared at them, then knelt in front of the devastated Emily, speaking to her with deep concern.

"Emily, I'm sorry I'm late. Don't be afraid, I'm here now."

At that moment, Emily couldn't hold back her pain any longer. The overwhelming sorrow seemed to engulf her as soon as Isabella arrived.

Emily felt a pain she had never experienced before, but she couldn't stop it. She was utterly heartbroken.

"Mom... I can't leave. I need to stay with Michael. What will he do? Mom, what should I do? I can't live without Michael. Don't make me leave. I won't go. I need to wait for him."

Hearing this, Isabella's heart ached.

Isabella's eyes filled with tears.

She felt both sorrow and anger, not knowing how to comfort Emily.

She could only hold Emily in her arms and turn to the others.

"I understand your feelings, but please understand Emily. She is Michael's wife. She has the right to stay here. No matter what happens, we will take responsibility. Please, let her stay."

Veda knew she couldn't cross Isabella, so she let them be.

Scarlett didn't dare confront Isabella either. She was good at scheming behind people's backs, but in person, she was cowardly. After all, Isabella had seen her tamper with the medication. Who knew what Isabella might say in a moment of anger?

So, Emily stayed at the hospital.

Even after Michael was out of danger, Emily stayed by his bedside, ignoring the people coming and going, and the harsh words they said.

Isabella saw this and worried that Emily couldn't handle it.

She tried to persuade Emily several times, but Emily wouldn't listen. She had no appetite and no mood.

If Isabella hadn't secretly told her to think about the baby, fearing the child would suffer, Emily might have starved herself waiting for Michael to wake up.

Isabella, as a mother, couldn't bear to see her daughter suffer.

She couldn't persuade Emily, nor could she blame Michael. After all, Michael had gotten hurt saving Emily.

But anger needed an outlet. When Isabella left the room and ran into Scarlett, she didn't let her go. She immediately blocked her path.

Scarlett was startled and looked at Isabella defensively. "What do you want?" Isabella found her amusing and coldly snorted. "You ask what I want? I want to ask you, how long do you plan to keep pretending?"

Scarlett was afraid Veda or someone else might hear. She glared at Isabella, her anger rising, but she lowered her voice. "What are you talking about!"

"Scarlett, you really know how to play dumb. Wasn't it you who told the police I was involved in a break-in and attempted harm, causing me to be summoned for questioning and treated with disdain?"

Isabella's voice was full of accusation, almost overwhelming Scarlett.

Scarlett, of course, wouldn't admit to it.

She was shameless. Even though she had plotted against Mason, she could still put on

a pitiful act in front of doctors and nurses, pretending to be a dutiful daughter-in-law.

Seeing Scarlett's shamelessness, Isabella had no kind words for her.

Michael had saved Emily, and for that, she was grateful. But towards Scarlett, she couldn't show any kindness.
