Chapter 483: Please Don't Push Me
Chapter 483: Please Don't Push Me
"What?!" Immersed in his thoughts, Kayden was startled by Elaine. The few guys who came along together chuckled.
Kayden's dazing face looked a little funny.
"Are you all packed up? Let's go."
"Wow, Kayden, why are you smoking so much? I didn't expect you to be such a heavy smoker."
"No ... I'm just ... Forget it. It's not something I can explain to you. Get in the car."
Kayden threw away his cigar and got in the car.
He couldn't tell Elaine that he was upset because of her sister.
Or, he couldn't say that he seemed to have taken a fancy to her sister who loved to show off.
When Elaine arrived at the hospital, Emmett was still sleeping.
Elaine walked over gently, leaning over to Emmett's face and smiling.
"Kayden, look, Emmett looks so adorable when he is sleeping, doesn't he?"
Kayden was speechless, and even Jasper, who was about to leave, was speechless, too.
Adorable? Could this word ever have something to do with Emmett?
***
It had never crossed his mind that Emmett was adorable.
Formidable would be a better word.
Elaine tucked Emmett in and started to bustle around like a housewife.
Kayden had to admire Elaine. Although she was not a clever woman and did not have any virtues, she was indeed a good woman inside a house. She was a great candidate for living together.
Jasper, Oliver, and Lucas took their leave one after another.
Only Emmett's family remained in the hospital.
When Atwood heard the news, his first reaction was to throw his teacup out on the ground and it broke.
"What? That useless brat! Did he go on a hunger strike for such a woman? Is he insane? I'm so angry! That brat pissed me off! How could a promising man do such disgraceful things! Shame on him! Is he dead?"
His subordinate said a little scared, "Master, Young Master is still alive. He is in the hospital for emergency treatment. They said Young Master is saying all the time that he has no appetite, and he drinks and smokes too much. That's why he ..."
"That bastard! How could I have such a useless son! How could he not go die if he did such things just for a woman!"
Though cursing him like this, Atwood was still concerned about Emmett for he was his son after all. After walking around the room in anger for a while, he finally said, "Let's go! Go to the hospital to see this unfilial son!"
The subordinate hurried to prepare the car.
Atwood sat in the car. As the car was driving on the bumpy road, he slowly closed his eyes.
He couldn't help but ponder in his mind.
Did he do something wrong?
Did he do it wrong to separate Emmett from Elaine?
Atwood's head ached from thinking. He pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed.
Atwood with his group stopped at the elevator on this floor. Seeing so many people walking in, the boy from the ZH Clan immediately notified Kayden.
On hearing this, Kayden jumped off the bed in the next ward and rushed out.
He went right in front of Atwood, and greeted him with a fake smile, panting, "Master, why are you here?"
***
"You bastard, are you planning to hide it all from me even if my son dies? You think only Young Master is your master, don't you? You don't even take count of me! Why didn't you report to me that Emmett is in the hospital?"
Kayden was nervous with his heart beating like a drum. Atwood wanted to part Elaine from Emmett, but now, Elaine was in the ward with him. If Atwood saw them, wouldn't this be another storm?
"Well, Master, it was Young Master who didn't allow me to tell you. You know him. If I betrayed him, he would literally kill me. I had no choice. I have to stay alive anyway, don't I?"
Atwood waved his hands impatiently, "Alright, alright! Anyway, it's impossible to get some truth out of your mouth. Which one is Emmett's ward?"
Kayden's face turned green. He stuttered, "Master, I think you better go back for now. Young Master is sleeping. I wonder when he will wake up. Why don't you have Young Master call you back when he
wakes up? Look ..."
Hearing those words, Atwood pulled a long face. "Kayden, are you hiding something from me? I'm already here. How can I just go back without seeing my son! I am not someone that you can easily send away. Get out of the way!"
With a loud shout, Atwood roared out his dignity as the Master.
At this point, Elaine walked out. Turning her head, she saw Atwood. The next second, Elaine was stunned, and her face turned pale with a brush.
"Mr. ... Smith?"
Elaine's lips trembled with fear.
After they met last time, Elaine became scared of this old man with all her heart, because the fact that he told her made her shiver.
The moment Atwood saw Elaine, he couldn't help but call out, "Elaine? Why is she here? Good for you, Kayden. No wonder you won't let me in. So she's here! You bastard, do you want to die?"
Atwood was so angry that his beard curled up and his eyes sprayed fire. He lifted his walking stick to hit Kayden, then walked over to Elaine. Elaine was so frightened that her entire body trembled. She quickly lowered her head with her fingers twisting together.
What should she do?
***
She was so scared!
"Elaine, why did you come to meet Emmett again? Don't you know what shame is? You still hang on to Emmett after I told you that? What's wrong with you?"
Atwood almost roared.
Elaine lowered her head and stammered, "Uncle Atwood, don't be angry and don't be upset. Actually, we have already broken up for that thing. I came here today because he was ill. I am here to serve him ..."
"Go away! Elaine, I don't want to see you again. You'd better stay away from Emmett! You have to understand that your presence by his side is also a torment to him. Do you want him to see the daughter of his mother's murderer every day? You have to keep your promise. Since you promised to leave Emmett, why are you still here again?"
Elaine couldn't hold back her tears any longer. She cried, "I know I should go. I know I should disappear. I worked hard to try my best to forget Emmett, but I couldn't. I was thinking about him every second ... Emmett is sick now, and he's going to die. Please, Atwood, stop driving me away, will you? Let me take care of Emmett for now, okay? "
Standing at the side and seeing Elaine crying so hard, even Kayden felt sorry for her.
"Girl, think how you would feel if you were Emmett. Can you? Just think about it. Your father killed Emmett's mother. When Emmett sees you, how mixed feelings he would have! Also, from your point of view, think about it. Do you think you and Emmett will be happy?"
Elaine burst into tears and nodded wildly, "I understand what you said. I've thought a lot these days, but it's just impossible for me to forget Emmett. I can't do it, it hurts..."
Just as Atwood was about to continue to teach Elaine lessons, he heard a sneer from behind him, "Aren't you ashamed of yourself to force a young girl like this?"
The voice was so cold, so heartless, so crisp, yet the words said were extremely distinct, and everyone heard them clearly.
Emmett and Elaine were both shocked and turned around at the same time.
"Emmett! Why are you out of bed? Are you still dizzy? Please go back to bed!" Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Elaine rushed over and held Emmett's arm, trying to support him, anxious and caring.
Emmett patted Elaine's hand to comfort her.
He had been staring at Atwood, who felt somewhat nervous under his gaze.
Atwood coughed to break the silence and pointed at Elaine, "I admit that this girl is innocent, cute and virtuous. I don't hate her. But Emmett, let me remind you who she is. Her father killed your mother! No matter how good a woman she is, you can't be with her!"
Emmett leaned against the door frame, wearing a thin hospital uniform. Due to his poor diet for a long time, his face looked somewhat pale and thin.
Seeing Emmett's condition, Elaine felt her heart is stirred by a knife.
Tears rolled down her cheeks as she held Emmett's arm and she helplessly pressed her face against him.
Emmett, let me lean on you like this, not thinking about anything, as if there were no old grudges in the past, and there were no obstacles between the two of us.
Only the two of them, just him and her.
"You made me laugh." Emmett let out a series of cold sneers. It sounded so ear-piercing and cold to Atwood.
He felt an inexplicable sense of fear.
He forced himself to stand there calmly, still looking dignified.
"Father ... please don't interfere between me and Elaine. Please don't do it again. Please don't push me."
Atwood was so angry that he trembled, "You are my son. Why should I not care about your affairs? You are so useless. Do you want to be with the daughter of your mother's killer? Have you ever thought about your dead mother? Is it fair to her?"
Elaine's heart broke into pieces when she heard the words. To her, those words were like knives piercing into her heart. Her entire body trembled, and her tears stained Emmett's hospital uniform.
"Emmett, stop it. Stop quarreling with the old man. I'm leaving now."
