Billionaire's Reborn Baby novel Chapter 76

The butler sighed. "That's good. Mr. Maury called today, but I hid it from him. I don't know when the company will get through the difficult time."

Harold was listening to him in silence. He knew that Emily would do something, and what he needed to do is assist her privately. He handed butler's wallet to him. When he checked the balance of the card, he withdrew two thousand and put one thousand in butler's wallet. And he would leave the rest to call a cab.

The butler took the wallet without opening it. Heading for the kitchen, he intended to ask Susan to cook some porridge for Emily.

At this time, Harold left quietly. It was hard for Emily to go out, since Beverly and her daughter was watching her. Besides, she should also watch out for Maury. It was a hard time for her. So he had to deal with some minor things for her to buy her some time for something important.

Emily had been lying on the bed for quite long. Elsie, who lived in the room next to her, came in after a knock. She talked to her and tried calling her name as if she really cared about her. Later, she checked both her bag and phone, but she seemed not to have got anything useful. Then she rolled her eyes and left.

Emily got up from the bed after Elsie left. She began to draw with her brush. When she was sitting on the chair in the hospital with her eyes closed, she seemed to have sensed the smell of the sun as well as the warmth of the sunshine.

Gently closing her eyes, she thought back the warmth. Then, she opened her eyes and began to mix the pigments. She chose a piece of paper which was two meters wide this time. The paper she used earlier was fifty centimeters wide, and it was the first time that she had used such a large piece of paper. She placed it on the ground and pressed it with a paperweight. All the colors, like gold, blue, pink and yellow, came to her mind, so she was drawing really fast. Then she quickly finished the painting that could express the warmth she felt this afternoon.

Then she hid it under the bed. When Susan saw Emily looking at something under the bed after opening the door quietly, she couldn't help saying with a smile, "Miss Emily, you woke up?"

Susan was so heavily hit by Elsie that she even bled from the corner of her mouth. And her cheeks were swollen. She didn't get better after taking some medicine, as well as several days of rest at home. Her condition wasn't improved until she went to the hospital and got some other medicine.

Emily thought that Susan wouldn't come back anymore. However, she came back, and she still greeted Elsie politely when meeting her. What was more, she treated her even more carefully.

"Does your stomach still hurt?" Emily came in holding a bowl of porridge. "I'm afraid you haven't woken up yet. I've just cooked the porridge. Come on. Have some of it. It's good to your stomach."

Emily couldn't reach out and take the bowl, since her hands were still stained with paints. She just sniffed, "It smells so good."

"It's still very hot. You can have it later." Susan put the bowl of porridge on the table, asking, "Miss Emily, what else do you wanna eat?"

Tilting her head, Emily answered after a moment of thinking, "Egg soup."

Susan nodded, "Okay, wait here. I'll go and cook it for you now."

When she left, Emily went into the bathroom and washed her hands. Then she found her face and clothes were somewhat stained, which Susan should also see.

Emily took out the paints and drew something on the paper randomly. The painting looked quite casual, even the colors she used. She was still drawing when Susan came in.

Susan said with a smile, "Miss Emily, the painting is so good. What did you draw?"

Emily didn't want to probe into her thought, so she simply put down the paints, saying, "It's a gift for you."

Susan was so pleased to hear that, "Really?" The paints hadn't dried yet. She looked at it for a moment and then said, "I have to frame it. I'm so happy to get it, since you drew it for me."

Emily was observing her while eating the porridge. In her previous life, Lola would do nothing but see her be bullied by Elsie and Beverly every time. She had neither helped her out nor taught her how to avoid them, which led her inexplicable dislike of women of Lola's age.

Susan was so heavily hit by Elsie, but she still tried that hard to protect her. Emily couldn't figure out whether she did that in good faith or just pretended. Was she the one sent by someone behind Elsie to test her?

Can she trust her?

Emily did not dare to take the risk, since she had so much to care about, including her father, big brother and the Britt Group.

It was ten at the late night.
