Chapter 650
The Whittle couple''s decision was unbeknownst to Kendall. The sun was already shining brightly by the
time she woke up after a few hours of sleep. However, the thought ofst night''s incident prodded her
to get up from bed immediately.
Her phone started ringing just as she was about to push herself off the bed. She looked down and saw
that it was a call from Roger. Both he and Toddy had apanied Emma to Imperia for a checkup.
"Roger, how''s Emma?" Kendall was worried that it might be bad news.
"She''s alright, but she needs another checkup. I saw the news about a severe car ident in Orapolis.
Three cars fell off the Orapolis Bridge, right? The rescued victims seemed familiar to me. They look like
Dad, Mom, and Nell."
She paused for a moment. "It is them, but they''re safe. They''re just a little scratched up, that''s all.
They''ll be discharged from the hospital today."
It was just that the traumatic ident would haunt her mothers in their dreams for a period of time.

Roger became nervous upon having his guess confirmed. "I''ll fly back there immediately."
Toddy could look after Emma. Roger had made up his mind to give his blessings to them, so there was
no need for a third wheel. He''d rather return home to take care of his parents.
"Roger, they''re fine. You don''t have to worry." Kendallforted him, but she didn''t stop him from
returning home. She knew that staying in Imperia was torture to him, especially after learning about
that incident.
He couldn''t help, and there wasn''t anything he could do in Imperia. Emma waspletely fine, and
she had Toddy forpany. Furthermore, Toddy''s domineering demeanor rendered it difficult for Roger
to win Emma from him. It would also put the sick Emma in a difficult situation if he kept bothering them.
"How''s Emma doing? How is she? Tell her to rx. I have a hunch that it''s a misdiagnosis." Kendall''s
sixth sense became shrewd ever since she was reborn.
She was neither afraid nor nervous about Emma''s problem. On the contrary, if something really
happened, her heart was a reliable rm as it would tighten with fear; hence, her rtively confident
assumption was that it was a misdiagnosis.
"She has done the pathology tests. We will know the urate result once the result is out. The other
checkups were done as the doctor''s reference. Mr. Heller took Emma to the best hospital in Imperia for
a gastroscopy. Based on the doctor''s experience, the tumor in her esophagus is benign."
"Of course, it is!"
"Emma is rather optimistic about the situation. She said that she''d receive treatment if it were cancer. If
it''s a terminal illness, she''ll enjoy the rest of her time doing whatever she fancies to avoid wasting her
life. We have time after the checkup, so we''re taking her on a trip. We went to ces and tried all the
delicacies the ce had to offer."
"It is not cancer. It''s possible that she identally cut her esophagus during her meals, and it grew into
something like a vus. It''s not cancer. Are you sure that you''ll return today, Roger? Are you not going
to wait for the results?"
The air went still until Roger sighed. "Kendall, I think that there''s no need for me to be here. I can''t help
with anything. I couldn''t see my shorings when Emma was fine, but I see them now. I''m not
powerful enough. No, I''m not even close to being powerful. Mr. Heller triumphs over me in several
aspects."
Most importantly, Emma only had her eyes on Toddy.
Roger did not tell Kendall something—during their days in Imperia, he was the one carrying their stuff
out of the hotel, whereas Toddy and Emma walked in front of him holding hands.
Emma wanted to take care of Roger, but Toddy was way too possessive. The instant they left Orapolis,
Roger could tell that Toddypletely ignored him since Dn was no longer around.
He even made Emma worried about his feelings.
She was the patient, yet he made her worried when he should be the one looking after her. Frustration
had been bubbling in his mind throughout the trip; the knowledge that he could not bring her true
happiness tormented him. It also didn''t help that Emma and Toddy had a lot of things to talk about
together.
Due to Emma''s illness, she finally came to her senses and moved forward from her past with Toddy. If
she was diagnosed with cancer, her life might fall into a countdown. Thus, what was the use of dwelling
in the past?
The instant she stopped wallowing in the pain of the past, it extricated both her and Toddy.
Every day counted. So, she decided to appreciate each and every one by her side because it would be
toote for regret when she left the world. When that event came to pass, she wouldn''t be able to meet
her loved ones any longer
It didn''t matter whether she had cancer, or it was just a mere illness. She already had life figured out
and learned to appreciate the things she had in this life.
"Roger, don''t say that. You''re a fine man." Both men were of different worlds.
Roger was undeniably the best to Kendall, but she could not lie and im that his circumstances were
better than Toddy''s.
The Woods Family was raking in a considerable sum of money ever since Roger managed the
orchards. Still, the decent annual ie was iparable to Toddy''s wealth.
Roger knew how to manage the orchards, when the harvest seasons would be, when to add the
fertilizers, when to spray insecticide, and whatnot. Even so, he didn''t shine in terms of business, let
alone talk about stocks, investments, and projects.
"I''ve booked an afternoon ticket. I will be in Orapolis around 4.00PM. Dad and Mom are at the hospital,
right? I''ll head there straight away." Roger steered away from the topic as he had decided not to put
Emma in a difficult position.
"Don''t go there. They will be discharged today. Juste home. They will stay at my biological parents''
ce."
"Okay."
"I''ll ask someone to pick you up from the airport."
"Thanks." He did not refuse the arrangement.
After the call ended, he stayed silent for a while before returning to the hotel. He had strolled to a
nearby garden alone to avoid Toddy and Emma so that he could call Kendall.
By the time he returned to the hotel, Emma was up. It seemed like she was heading outside because
they happened to bump into each other at the entrance.
"Morning, Emma." Roger greeted her with a gentle smile as if nothing had happened. "It''s still early.
Why don''t you get some more sleep? Where''s Mr. Heller?"
"Toddy''s still sleeping. I didn''t wake him up. I just wanted to get some fresh air outside." She then
questioned concernedly, "Have you asked Kendall about it? Are they your family?"
"Yeah, but fortunately, they''re fine. There aren''t any major injuries. They will be discharged from the
hospital today."
