"One glance, just one glance! Even if it's just a glance at Elis at the door, I'm willing! Mr. Stahler, | am begging you, letgo and see Elis, okay?" Josiah was angry when Emily called him by his name, and now, he was even more angry when she changed to call him Mr. Stahler in a rusty yet respectful manner.
He narrowed his eyes dangerously.
"Emily, tonight, if you dare to go back to accompany Khalid, in this life, you will never want to see Elis again!" Emily's heart thumped.
She was threatened again.
She thought it was actually really quite funny that any one of them could pinch her soft spot with such precision that she was in pain.
But she was so so sore, she really didn't know what she had done wrong.
Her heart was full of confusion, but she still said to Josiah like a walking corpse, "I know." After saying these words, she rushed downstairs.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was really unlucky today, she had walked downstairs too quickly and accidentally twisted her foot.
When she went to the washroom to wash Edith's clothes, she was so distracted that she cut the back of her hand from ssharp edge, bleeding.
She was very sore and tired, but, at last, she had completed the task set by Josiah.
She pressed the back of her hand with toilet paper and was just about to sit down on the sofa in the living room to rest, but Josiah's cold, harsh voice rang out in the air again.
"Emily, go and make sfood for Edith! The exercise was too intense just now, Edith is hungry! Edith is a picky eater, if the food you cook is not to her liking, tomorrow, Elis won't have to eat for the rest of the day!" She looked at Josiah with disbelief, how dare she treat his own son like this for the sake of a woman! Edith was his new love, and Elis was the child of a woman he loathed.
"Okay, I'm going to cook." Emily lowered her eyes, not caring about the wound on the back of her hand, and walked quickly towards the kitchen.
Elis' body was always weak, if he didn't eat for a day, he would have to die! When she dies, if Josiah still treats Elis so badly, how sad he will be if Elis has no mother and no father to care for him! There were sthings she wanted to say to Josiah.
"Why don't you go and make dinner? Emily, you just want to starve that son of yours to death, don't you?!" "Elis is also your son!" Josiah did not care about Elis, even if Emily was good-tempered, she could not bear it.
Life was short, twas precious, and Emily really didn't want to spend the rest of her life arguing with Josiah.
She softened her tone and spoke softly, "Mr. Stahler, from now on, I can't see Elis, but | want to beg you, take good care of Elis, okay?" Emily's previous intention was to keep Elis company during the remaining period of her life.
But now, she was going to die sooner or later, perhaps not even for half a year, so it was not a good thing to let Elis adapt to life without her from now on.
As long as Josiah could take up his responsibility as a father, it really didn't matter how many times she saw Elis less.
She hastily turned her face to the side to hold back her tears before she continued, "Mr. Stahler, | know you hateand you feel sick even if you look atmore than once. But Elis is after all your child, in the future, can you give him more love?" "Elis is quite smart, maybe it's because of his living environment, he is a bit more sensitive than other children, he is, in fact, longing for his father's love, if you care for him more, he will be very happy." "Tonight, | will cook for Edith, but in the future, please don't let Elis go hungry, okay? He was born prematurely to me, he was born with a congenital deficiency and his body is particularly poor, he can't stand being hungry." "Also, Elis is actually particularly afraid of the dark, before he goes to bed at night, he likes to listen to stories, can you tell him stories in the future?" Josiah wrinkled his eyebrows, he didn't know why, he always felt that the woman in front of him, was as if she was on her deathbed. This feeling made him feel distinctly unhappy and a touch of indescribable panic.
"Emily, if you wantto be good to that child you gave birth to, then be good and do something for me!" After saying these words, Josiah went upstairs.
Emily looked at Josiah's back in a daze, and only after a long, long tdid she dumbly lose her smile, in the future, there would not even be a chance to look at his back like this.
She ran to the kitchen and concentrated on cooking for Edith.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPerhaps it was because her condition had worsened. Today, she felt that her body was particularly weak, and when she did something, she always felt like she was floating in mid-air.
However, despite her discomfort, she finally managed to prepare a delicate four-course meal for Edith.
In the past, Emily was spoiled by her parents, so she didn't know how to cook! After that incident, she grew stronger and stronger from a young girl, taking on the burden of the whole family, and she slowly becmore and more fancy, making plates of exquisite and delicious meals for those who needed her care.
She was a good cook, and Edith would be satisfied.
Placing the meal on the table in the living room, she went upstairs and called Edith to cdown for dinner.
After knocking on the room door and hearing Josiah coldly let her in, she settled herself before pushing open the door in front of her.
Inside the room, Josiah was helping Edith button her knitted jacket one by one.
The clothes inside Edith's jacket were also put on by Josiah, right? The man at this moment looked so focused, as if, his eyes can only accommodate Edith alone.
Emily's eyes almost got wet again, and she sucked her nose hard to keep herself from crying out.
"I've already prepared the food, you can go down to eat." "Go down?" Josiah gave a cold laugh, "Emily, this is the attitude you serve people with?!" Although Emily was sometimes slow to react, she wasn't stupid either, and right away, she spoke, "Wait a moment, I'll bring up the food." Before Emily could walk out of the room, her mobile phone rang sharply again.
As soon as she picked it up, Khalid's grumpy voice cfrom the other end of the line, "Emily, you and Josiah are together, right? I'll give you two choices, now, immediately, cout! Or, I'll go in and find you!"
