110. Emily Got Sick
“Are they asleep yet?” Frank muttered from the door. His eyes looked teary as they wandered through
the sky-colored room.
Tonight, he should be sitting there near the twins-reading a fairy tale or a technology article, instead of
lamenting.
With languid steps, he turned to the next room. When his gaze fell on the fluffy blanket that Emily

‘If only Isabel hadn’t messed up, the kids would still be laughing with me. Now, they won’t even look at
me.”
With his eyes closed, Frank tried to calm the turmoil in his heart. At that moment, the phone in his
pocket rang. Seeing his assistant’s name on the screen, he answered silently.
“Report, Sir. I’ve taken care of everything. The news will be published tomorrow, exactly at seven in the
morning.”
That’s the time people go to work. They would listen to the radio in the car, browse social media on the
commuter line, and see many large TVs in busy centers. The whole community would be in an
uproar.
“Good,” Frank muttered in a low voice, “I don’t want any trouble.”
“Yes, Sir.”
However, just when the assistant was about to end the conversation, Kara’s voice was caught on his
phone. “Jeremy, Jeremy….”

Frank’s heart dropped to his stomach. “What happened?”

the phone to Kara.
“Please explain what happened. I will order the guards to prepare then take Young Lady to the

tote bag. “Emily is not in good mood, today. She doesn’t want to eat. Earlier, I tried to talk to her, but
she just cried and fell asleep. I hugged her for a long time, but I only realized she got a fever when I
laid her on the bed.”
“Emily has a fever?”
Kara zipped up the bag then turned to face Louis. The toddler had ju pulled the thermometer from
Emily’s mouth.
“Thirty-nine dot two C.”
“Thank you, Louis,” Kara said before turning off the thermometer and
placing it on the table. “It’s 39.2 degrees, Frank.”
“Gosh. Tell Jeremy to take you to my mansion.”
Kara, who was about to knock on her mother’s door, froze: “Not to the hospital?”
“I will call my personal doctor here. Emily will recover faster.”
