Unveiled: The Survivor's Triumph

Chapter 250 Emily Left

I laid Emily down on the bed. She was clearly feeling the effects of the alcohol, looking miserable.

I had promised to leave after getting her upstairs, but I just couldn't walk away.

She started drunkenly sobbing, saying things that were full of disappointment in me, which made me feel like crap.

I figured I'd wait until she calmed down and then try to talk to her. I also needed some time to figure out how to bring up the issue.

But she wouldn't pick up my calls afterward. I had no choice but to call her through the hospital phone, threatening to keep calling until she agreed to talk.

I wanted to pick her up from the hospital myself, but I had an important meeting. So, I asked Dennis to wait for her at the hospital entrance and bring her home. During the meeting, I kept checking the time, worried she might get impatient and change her mind.

Finally, the meeting ended, and I drove home as fast as I could. From a distance, I saw the lights were still on, which made me breathe a sigh of relief.

But the person waiting at home wasn't her; it was Victor.

"She left." Victor was lounging on the sofa, looking at me with a blank expression. He seemed pretty pleased with himself.

I rushed upstairs and pushed open the bedroom door.

She had taken all her stuff, but she left behind the new clothes I bought for her. I immediately called her, but her phone was already off.

I went back downstairs, and Victor was still sitting on the sofa, like he was waiting for me to confront him.

"What did you say to her?" I demanded.

Victor took a drag of his cigarette and looked at me nonchalantly. "She's just a divorced woman. Don't tell me you're serious about her."

I stared at him coldly, like he was a stranger.

I shouted, "From the moment I decided to marry her, I was ready to spend my life with her. I'm not as much of a jerk as you!"

Victor looked at me sharply, pointing his cigarette at me.

"What did you say? I'm your father," Victor shouted.

I sneered, "You oppose us being together so much. Are you feeling guilty?"

Victor's face changed slightly, and he nervously took another drag of his cigarette. "What do I have to feel guilty about? I'm doing this for your own good. You can have any woman you want. If you think Emily has no ulterior motives, I don't believe it," Victor said.

I was really worried about Emily. She must have been deeply hurt, and I had no idea where she would go.

So I didn't have time to keep arguing with Victor. I grabbed my keys and headed out.
