Shrouded Affections Winning Back My CEO Wife

Chapter 148

Chapter 148:

“It’s none of your business,” Emmett then moved ahead in silence. He had just looked up when he saw Eileen standing nearby.

Pausing, he asked, “Ms. Curtis, why are you here again?”

“Again?” Karla hurried, glancing between Emmett and Eileen.

“I didn’t come to the hospital for your…,” Eileen began.

But before Eileen could finish speaking, Karla interjected, “Then why are you here?”

She approached Eileen and asked, “Did you send him to the hospital? Did he run away home to see you yesterday? Why did you torture him like this? The doctor mentioned he was in the rain all night. His body is already weak. Do you know that?”

As Karla walked over, a gust of wind brushed Eileen’s face. Eileen looked at her coldly.

Taking a deep breath, Eileen responded, “He was lying outside my tutoring center. I took him to the hospital, paid the bill, and left. I don’t know anything else.”

It was around nine in the evening now, and the hospital corridors were silent. Karla’s raised voice had caused some patients to peek from their windows.

Several nurses gathered at the door, murmuring amongst themselves.

Eileen preferred not to cause a scene, especially since Ruby was also a patient here.

But Karla didn’t let her go. She exclaimed, “Stop lying! When I was checking my son out, the nurse said you claimed to be his girlfriend!”

“The nurse assumed that on her own. I never admitted it,” Eileen said, her expression tightening.

“I’m not interested in your excuses! Eileen, you’re not suitable for my son. I won’t let you marry him! If you don’t back off, I’ll make sure you can’t stay in Wist Land!” In a fit of anger, Karla threw her bag at Eileen.

Eileen dodged it easily, and the bag crashed into a nearby car, setting off its alarm.

“I have no intention of marrying your son!” Eileen’s eyes were cold as ice as she expressed her stance to Karla. Then, she turned to Emmett. “If you genuinely wish to avoid troubling me, please stop approaching me from now on. Your apologies will only cause more harm than good.”

She purposely made her point serious to ensure it was clear.

Then, she walked toward the inpatient department.

Emmett and Karla stood frozen, watching her leave.

“Why… Why did she go there?” Karla asked, bewildered.

Emmett had a sudden realization and said, “My mother is sick and is hospitalized here, which is why she visits the hospital every weekend.”

It dawned on him that Eileen wasn’t there for him at all.
