The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 442 Close Protection

Michael was floored by Abigail's accusations.

He felt dizzy and disoriented, his heart pounding, and his ears ringing so loudly he couldn't hear anything else.

Michael started to believe what Abigail was saying, thinking he was the one who had ruined Emily's life, leading to the tragedy that befell her and the baby.

"I should never have been in her life from the start," Michael muttered.

Just as Abigail was about to continue her rant, the light in the operating room went

out.

Daniel came out, seeing Abigail gripping Michael's collar. He quickly stepped forward and pulled Abigail away from Michael, urgently shouting, "Abigail, what are you doing? This isn't the time for fighting."

Even after being pulled away, Abigail was still agitated, her eyes blazing with anger. Her voice trembled but was resolute as she said, "He's the reason Emily is in this state. How can I let him off? Michael, if anything happens to Emily, I swear I'll make you pay, even if it costs me my life!"

"Enough!" Daniel interjected, pulling Abigail aside.

"Abigail, I get that you're upset, but acting like this won't help Emily."

Hearing the word "help," Abigail immediately snapped back to reality.

Seeing the operating room light off, she turned to Daniel and asked, "How is Emily? Is she okay?"

Michael also looked over, his face full of concern.

Daniel nodded. He had insisted on being part of the surgery today. Although he wasn't the lead surgeon, he was willing to assist the renowned obstetrician just to be close to Emily.
