Chapter 192 Signs of Life

Emily flagged down a taxi, lugging a trunk full of her stuff.

Emily had no idea where she was headed, only that she was drifting further and further from Emerald Lake Manor.

This time, she didn't say goodbye to anyone-not Mason, Veda, or even Abigail.

Right now, she only wanted to see one person: Isabella.

It wasn't until the driver snapped her out of her daze that she gave him the hospital's address.

After stashing her luggage, Emily, feeling like a zombie, made her way to Isabella's VIP room.

The only thing that could cheer her up was that Isabella had been moved to a nicer room.

The new room had fresh flowers every day, a humidifier to keep the air nice, and a spacious, quiet area where Emily could cry her heart out in front of Isabella. That feeling was beyond words.

Seeing Isabella, Emily felt a sharp pain, like a piece of her heart was missing, and she couldn't hold back her tears. "Mom, I messed up. I shouldn't have fallen for Michael, shouldn't have married him, and shouldn't have dragged out the divorce."

"Mom, this hurts so much, but the kid is innocent. How do I face my child? How do I tell them their dad's a mess?"

"Mom, I ended up just like you, falling for the wrong guy. We both lost big time. Mom, please wake up. Let's run away and never come back. I'm begging you, Mom, I'm really hurting. We shouldn't be like this."
