The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 58 Harboring and Shielding

Mason wanted Michael to stick around the hospital to look after Emily. Daniel was a bit on edge, worried Michael might find out about Emily's pregnancy. He said, "Mason, Emily needs some peace and quiet. Too many people around won't help. At night, let's just get a caregiver for her. During the day, there are nurses and caregivers here, so Mr. Smith doesn't need to be here all the time. He's got a lot on his plate, so let's not bother him."

Mason shot Michael a glare. "What's he so busy with? Is the company gonna fall apart without him?"

Mason gave Michael a disapproving look, then turned to Daniel. "Daniel, thanks for all your hard work."

Daniel had to think fast and said, "Mason, let me walk you out."

Mason reminded Michael again to take care of Emily.

Honestly, Michael was already planning to stay with her. He felt responsible. Thinking about it, he remembered something important and said, "Sophia, you head back first. I have something to do." Without waiting for her reaction, he turned and left.

Emily had been moved to a ward. She was still out cold, lying there pale as a ghost, like a broken doll.

Michael looked at her. She was so thin and fragile, it made his heart ache. But why was she so stubborn, like a little hedgehog that wouldn't back down, or a rabbit that could bite?

Sophia watched Michael walk determinedly towards Emily. She was so angry her nails dug into her palms, but she didn't feel the pain.

She cursed under her breath, 'Emily, you're just a ghost haunting around Micheal. Don't blame me for being ruthless. This was just a warning; next time, you won't be so lucky.'

Sophia stomped her foot and stormed out of the hospital. Besides wanting Emily gone, she also wanted Michael back.
