Chapter 1221 Embarrassing
Hattie spoke with determination.
âMiss, but this!â
Dominique wanted to say something more, but upon seeing Hattieâs expression, she swallowed her words.

The next morning, Emmanuel, exhausted from a night of labor, was awakened by the ringing of the phone before he could get a good sleep. âHello, Mom. Whatâs up?â he asked sleepily.
âEmmanuel, where are you? Something significant has happened!â
âWhat happened, Mom!â Emmanuel immediately sprung up from bed.
Mackenzie, who had no plans to go to work today, was awakened by his movement.
âTommy suddenly got a fever. He vomited and even passed out, but Ryder is in the hospital now. Thereâs no one to take care of them!â Alessandraâs voice was filled with anxiety.
âMom, donât worry. Iâll be right-there!â
After hanging up the phone, Emmanuel quickly got out of bed to wash up. Turning around, he found that Mackenzie had also woken up. âMackenzie, I need to go to the hospital. My mom said Tommy was sent to Beacon Hospital, too!â

âIâll go with you.â

âUh, okay! But donât you have to work?â Emmanuel asked before realizing how foolish he was to ask the question.
And sure enough, Mackenzie glared at him coldly, as if she wanted to strangle him. He had been so rough last night, causing her so much pain, as if she were torn apart. How could she possibly go to work today? Well, visiting your cousin in the hospital would be a perfect excuse.
âThen⦠Iâll wait for you outside after I get ready.â
Emmanuel quickly went to wash up and then made a swift exit.
Soon, the couple arrived at Beacon Hospital.
Juan, accompanied by Rhea, personally received them.
Juan was focused on work-related matters and didnât notice anything unusual about Mackenzie, but Rhea noticed at a glance that Mackenzie seemed a bit strange. She tried her best to walk normally, and there was nothing particularly noticeable at first glance, but Rhea, being a medical student, quickly figured out what was going on.
While Mackenzie was discussing Ryder and Tommyâs conditions with Juan, she quietly gave Emmanuel a pinch and whispered in his ear, âDid you finally gather up the courage last night? Congratulations!â

Uh⦠Emmanuelâs face turned slightly red. He hadnât expected that such a thing would have consequences. Should he admit it now? It was so awkward!
âWhat are you shy about? Iâm your relationship strategist, so I should take some credit for this. You should treat me to a meal to thank me!â Rhea whispered quietly, sticking her tongue out.
âOkay, wait until my business is finished.â Emmanuel quickly tried to change the subject. Otherwise, the more people knew about it, the more embarrassing it would be.
âHaha! Okay!â Fortunately, Rhea also knew when to stop and immediately shut up.
At this moment, Emmanuel heard Juan say with a sigh, âThe bullet hit Ryderâs seventh and eighth thoracic vertebrae as well as his spine. Although he is out of danger, he is likely to be paralyzed in the future.â Then, he continued, âAs for his son, after a detailed examination, I think he might have been poisoned. Unfortunately, our hospitalâs doctors lack experience in this area and are at a loss for the time being.â
Mackenzie thanked Juan for his explanation, but she still wanted to visit Ryder and his son with Emmanuel.
âWhat did Rhea just say to you?â As they walked out the door, Mackenzie quietly asked Emmanuel, her eyes piercing. She figured that what Rhea had said must have something to do with her. This is so embarrassing! If this happens again, I might not want to do it anymore.
âN-Nothing. She just told me about Tommyâs condition. I have to go see Tommy first,â Emmanuel still had a will to survive, and this wasnât exactly a lie. After all, Rhea did mention that Tommyâs condition was urgent.
Mackenzie shot him another glare and ceased discussing these personal matters. However, walking was painful for her as she experienced a burning sensation. Iâve long been aware that this kind of thing is not a good one. It is too detrimental to women; who would engage in it if not for love?
The four of them swiftly reached Tommyâs room. As the father and son were in separate wards, Alessandra was looking after Ryder. Surprisingly, Tia was the one attending to Tommy here.
âAh, Mr. Lowe and Ms. Quillen, youâre here.â
