Chapter 158: Chapter 161

Chapter 161 Her Anger

Elva’s forced smile on her face became even more stiff.

If Emily knew what she said and did, she would have been skinned alive for her actions. It is simply

wishful thinking for someone to

defend her.

She only hopes now that Emily wakes up but doesn’t recover too quickly. It would be even better if she

had a cliché amnesia, that would be perfect!

But she was destined to be disappointed.

At Friedan’s manor, Emily took a relaxing bath and enjoyed a comfortable meal, finally regaining some

strength.

The family doctor examined her from head to toe and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with her

body.

“It was truly a miracle!”

The family doctor sighed again.

It was already difficult for a vegetative person to wake up, so it was the first time in his life that he woke

up so quickly.

Emily felt uncomfortable and touched the back of her head several times. At that moment, she only felt

a headache and then lost consciousness.

Luckily, she didn’t remain unconscious for long.

“What about Elva? Haven’t they returned yet?” Emily’s slender

eyebrows arched slightly, seemingly impatient.

“They were already on their way, Mr. Friedan. They were very happy to hear that you woke up… Shall I

give you another massage?” The maid spoke gently and patiently.

This is what Pamela requested. Emily has been bedridden for a long time and her legs are weak. She

needs a massage to help her recover.

If we were to say who is the most important person in this family, it would definitely be Emily.

The Friedan’s manor was heavily guarded, all for her.

It is said that Thomas was also handsome and wealthy when he was young, but he only liked Emily. He

pursued her for several years, while Emily had a long line of suitors when she was young, including

those who were even more handsome and wealthy than Thomas. However, Emily firmly chose

Thomas.

It is just a pity that Emily went crazy shortly after giving birth to Seraphina and spent twenty years in a

state of madness. Even so, Thomas never thought about looking for someone else outside.

Occasionally, there were some birds and swallows who wanted to squeeze into Thoma s’s arms, but

they were all sharply pushed away by Thoma s’s words, who only doted on his wife.

Whenever these things were mentioned, the ser vants were very

envious.

May they find someone who shares their heart, and never be separated until old age. The story of

Thomas and Emily is a testament to the positive power of love.

“I’ll do it.” Pamela watched the maids massaging and furrowed her brow. After all, these people were

not professionals and their massages were not up to par. The occupational hazard made her want to

take

matters into her own hands.

These days, the Friedan family felt guilty for freeloading and decided to do something within their

means.

“Thank you for your hard work,” Emily said somewhat embarrassed. “You are Seraphina’s friend, and I

really shouldn’t have asked you to do these things.”

I have to admit, among so many people, only Pamela really knows how to give a proper massage. I

don’t know if the others are afraid or lack strength, but their massages are neither painful nor satisfying.

Only when Pamela starts, her hands find the right touch.

Just by looking at Pamela’s actions, it was clear that she was professional. Every single one of them hit

the acupressure points accurately.

“Tell me what has happened these days. How is Seraphina and her baby in her belly?”

What she cared most about was this child who had been wandering for many years. Seraphina had

suffered so much over the years, and she wanted to love her well in her limited life.

As Pamela looked up, she saw Emily staring at her.

Pamela told her everything she knew.

When Emily heard about Claudia’s child being exposed, both Horace and the celebrity Pedro were

eager to be the child’s father, and Emily was delighted.

“How interesting, I didn’t expect these two people to be competing to become fathers.”

Pamela repeated to Elva about taking over the major project of the

Friedan family company.

“Mrs. Friedan, I heard that Mr. Friedan had a falling out with Claudia because of this matter…” Pamela

hesitated to speak further, unable to utter the words “cut off ties.” After all, this was reported in the

news, and the true situation had to be confirmed with the parties involved.

Upon hearing that Thomas had a falling out with Elva and Claudia, Emily’s expression turned slightly

cold.

Before fainting, she was already on the verge of cutting off ties with Elva. Little did she expect that in

such a short period of time, Elva would come between Seraphina and Thomas’ relationship.

“What a sca tterbrain,” Emily frowned, her dissatisfaction evident between the lines.

During the days when she was unconscious, Thoma s’s own daughter, surprisingly, showed affection

toward a white-eyed wolf!

Pamela glanced at her quietly, knowing that she was referring to Thomas.

As an outsider, she couldn’t understand Thoma s’s attitude either. In theory, when a daughter who has

been missing for so many years returns, she should be cherished. How come she is treated worse than

an adopted daughter in the end?

Thinking about the grievances Claudia had suffered, Emily became furious.

“Give me the phone!” She reached out to the maid, intending to make a call herself to urge Thomas to

come over.

Just as I picked up my phone, a ser vant hurriedly ran to the door and whispered, “Mr. Friedan has

returned.”

Emily’s hand trembled, and she immediately stood up. She had only taken a few steps when her legs

went weak, and Pamela immediately supported her.

Just at that moment, Thomas hurriedly walked in and, upon seeing her, became so excited that tears

welled up in his eyes. “Emily, you’re awake! Why didn’t you lie in bed and rest a little longer?”

Later, Ervin, Waldron, and Derrick also walked in.

Emily didn’t even look at Thomas and waved at Claudia walking ahead, saying, “Seraphina, come

here.”

Claudia approached with a smile and gently asked, “Mom, how is your health?”

“There was nothing serious.” After saying that, she glanced lightly at Elva, who was left behind.

Elva controlled the wheelchair herself, moving slowly. When she saw Emily wake up, she shivered from

the cold, wishing she could find a hole to bury herself in and diminish her presence.

Fortunately, Emily just glanced at her and didn’t say anything.

Thomas saw himself being left aside and felt a bit displeased, but he didn’t show it. He just approached

Emily with a forced smile on his face and said, “Emily, you haven’t asked me how I’ve been these

days? You don’t even show a little concern for me.”

Emily glanced at him disdainfully and sneered, “What’s there to care about? Didn’t you give away all of

Seraphina’s projects to someone else? I heard you even wanted to cut ties with Seraphina. Why should

I care about you? Are you getting se nile or someone drugged you?”

The atmosphere suddenly became cold.

“You just woke up, don’t worry so much…” Thomas blushed and stammered as he got up.

Upon hearing the phrase “hand it over to someone else,” Elva felt a pang in her nose and lowered her

head in distress.

This “other person” is not someone else, it is her.

Emily no longer concealed her disgust toward the Friedan family in front of them.

Seeing Elva’s dejected look, Derrick frowned and a wave of pity appeared in his eyes. He walked up to

Emily and said, “Mom, Elva is not just anyone. She has been with us day and night for so many years,

she is already our family. Saying things like this will make Elva sad.”

Emily ignored his words and looked at his face in surprise, “What happened to your face?”

“I beat him.” Waldron nonchalantly stepped forward, sneering mockingly, “He treats Elva like a sister,

but treats Claudia like a foster sister. I punched him to make him wake up and realize, but it turns out

he’s still just as foolish.”
