1. Emily Got Sick

“Are they asleep yet?” Frank muttered from the door. His eyes looked teary as they wandered through the sky-colored room.

Tonight, he should be sitting there near the twins-reading a fairy tale or a technology article, instead of lamenting.

With languid steps, he turned to the next room. When his gaze fell on the fluffy blanket that Emily usually hugged, the pressure in his chest was no longer unbearable. His breath began to rumble and his hands. clenched into tight fists..

‘If only Isabel hadn’t messed up, the kids would still be laughing with me. Now, they won’t even look at me.”

With his eyes closed, Frank tried to calm the turmoil in his heart. At that moment, the phone in his pocket rang. Seeing his assistant’s name on the screen, he answered silently.

“Report, Sir. I’ve taken care of everything. The news will be published tomorrow, exactly at seven in the morning.”

That’s the time people go to work. They would listen to the radio in the car, browse social media on the commuter line, and see many large TVs in busy centers. The whole community would be in an

uproar.

“Good,” Frank muttered in a low voice, “I don’t want any trouble.”

“Yes, Sir.”

However, just when the assistant was about to end the conversation, Kara’s voice was caught on his phone. “Jeremy, Jeremy….”

Frank could imagine his assistant turning around with wide eyes.

“What’s wrong, Miss Martin?”

“Emily. We need to get her to the hospital.”

Frank’s heart dropped to his stomach. “What happened?”

Even though the phone was no longer to his ear, Jeremy could hear that question. Swiftly, he handed the phone to Kara.

“Please explain what happened. I will order the guards to prepare then take Young Lady to the limousine.”

Kara nodded then returned to the room. After taking a deep breath, she greeted. “Frank…

“What’s wrong, Kara? What’s wrong with Emily?”

Holding the phone with her shoulder, Kara whispered. Her hands were busy putting some clothes into a tote bag. “Emily is not in good mood, today. She doesn’t want to eat. Earlier, I tried to talk to her, but she just cried and fell asleep. I hugged her for a long time, but I only realized she got a fever when I laid her on the bed.”

“Emily has a fever?”

Kara zipped up the bag then turned to face Louis. The toddler had ju pulled the thermometer from Emily’s mouth.

“Thirty-nine dot two C.”

“Thank you, Louis,” Kara said before turning off the thermometer and
