Chapter 373: Mother-Daughter Conversation

However, the people in the small wooden house not only humiliated her but also took away all the valuable things from the two of them. Therefore, the two of them were penniless now, and they couldn’t contact anyone without a mobile phone. They could only think of sneaking away from everyone and returning to the villa to get some clothes and money.

However, before the plan could be implemented, Mrs. Watson caught them outside the villa.

Mrs. Watson looked at her daughter’s disheveled appearance and felt both angry and disappointed.

“What happened to you?

Emma still wanted to quibble, but Mrs. Watson only stared into her eyes.

“Tell me the truth! Emma, I hope what I heard is the truth!”

Of course, Emma didn’t dare to tell her mother that they had failed to frame Le Wan and Zhai Jing and had instead been cheated and tainted.

Her pride made it impossible for her to accept her failure in front of others, so she could only explain half-truthfully,

“We went to the small wooden house on the mountain to relax, but we didn’t expect to meet a bad person and be locked in the house.”

Since she couldn’t avoid losing her dignity, Emma wanted to use the Watson family’s power to nail the two of them to death. Hence, she added fuel to the

“It must be the Le family. They went up the mountain before us, so they might have made some arrangements on the mountain.”

Mrs. Watson didn’t expect the Le family to be so bold as to attack Emma and the others in public. She was naturally furious.

However, the two children’s health was more important now, and the company was still in a mess. They couldn’t spare anyone to deal with this matter at the moment, so they called the police station to ask Chief Elber to deal with the Le family’s matter. In the end, they didn’t expect that old man Elber would be so straightforward when he received the money, but he was dragging his feet when it came to handling the matter.

Indeed, it was better to rely on themselves than others. They had to think of other methods.

At this moment, the doctor came out after examining the two of them.

Mrs. Watson stood up.

“Doctor, how are the children?”

Although she said “children,” the doctor knew that Mrs. Watson was really concerned about Emma, so he briefly mentioned Serena and then focused on Emma’s situation.

Therefore, Mrs. Watson didn’t notice the strangeness and missed the opportunity to discover the truth in advance, laying the foundation for the tragedy between the two girls.

Inside the ward, Serena was also listening attentively to the doctor outside the ward. Seeing that the doctor and Mrs. Watson didn’t mention anything about her condition, Serena heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, she was glad that she had made all kinds of preparations in advance, so she wouldn’t be

exposed easily.

Emma didn’t notice her situation. She was still thinking about how to get revenge on Lewan and the others.

Outside, Mrs. Watson heaved a sigh of relief when she learned that her daughter’s condition wasn’t particularly serious. She decided to bring Emma back immediately and keep her under her watch.

“I’m sorry, Serena. I have something important to tell Emma. Can I trouble you to leave for a while?”

Mrs. Walter entered the ward and chased Serena out of the ward in a slightly impolite tone.

Obviously, she was also dissatisfied with Serena. As Emma’s good friend, she thought that Serena should play the role of advising, but Serena obviously didn’t fulfill this responsibility. Instead, she acted together with Emma.

Every parent had a filter for their children. Therefore, when their children had deviated from the norm, many parents’ first reaction was to think that it must be someone else’s child who had led their children astray.

Obviously, Mrs. Watson had also fallen into this filter, so she couldn’t help but vent her anger on Serena.

Serena wanted to say something, but she couldn’t help but tremble when she saw her sharp gaze. She whispered,

“I’m sorry, Mrs. Watson. I’ll leave now.” After saying that, she curled up and walked out of the ward.

Emma saw Serena’s afraid look and looked at Mrs. Watson unhappily.

“Mother, she’s my friend. Please don’t treat her like this.”

Seeing the door close, Mrs. Watson turned around and stared at her daughter with a dark expression.

“If you still remember that you’re my daughter, the young miss of the Watson family, can you tell me why you’ve become like this?”

Emma didn’t expect her mother to be so direct and rude. Her face turned pale and her hands subconsciously grabbed the sheets tightly. She bit her lip tightly and turned her head away to avoid Mrs. Watson’s gaze. She didn’t say anything..
