Chapter 1221 Embarrassing
Hattie spoke with determination.
“Miss, but this!”
Dominique wanted to say something more, but upon seeing Hattie’s expression, she swallowed her
words.
The next morning, Emmanuel, exhausted from a night ofbor, was awakened by the ringing of the
phone before he could get a good sleep. “Hello, Mom. What’s up?” he asked sleepily.
“Emmanuel, where are you? Something significant has happened!”
“What happened, Mom!” Emmanuel immediately sprung up from bed.
Mackenzie, who had no ns to go to work today, was awakened by his movement.
“Tommy suddenly got a fever. He vomited and even passed out, but Ryder is in the hospital now.
There’s no one to take care of them!” Alessandra’s voice was filled with anxiety.
“Mom, don’t worry. I’ll be right-there!”
After hanging up the phone, Emmanuel quickly got out of bed to wash up. Turning around, he found
that Mackenzie had also woken up. “Mackenzie, I need to go to the hospital. My mom said Tommy was
sent to Beacon Hospital, too!”
“I’ll go with you.”
“Uh, okay! But don’t you have to work?” Emmanuel asked before realizing how foolish he was to ask
the question.
And sure enough, Mackenzie red at him coldly, as if she wanted to strangle him. He had been so
roughst night, causing her so much pain, as if she were torn apart. How could she possibly go to
work today? Well, visiting your cousin in the hospital would be a perfect excuse.
“Then… I’ll wait for you outside after I get ready.”
Emmanuel quickly went to wash up and then made a swift exit.
Soon, the couple arrived at Beacon Hospital.

Juan, apanied by Rhea, personally received them.
Juan was focused on work-rted matters and didn’t notice anything unusual about Mackenzie, but
Rhea noticed at a nce that Mackenzie seemed a bit strange. She tried her best to walk normally,
and there was nothing particrly noticeable at first nce, but Rhea, being a medical student, quickly
figured out what was going on.
While Mackenzie was discussing Ryder and Tommy’s conditions with Juan, she quietly gave
Emmanuel a pinch and whispered in his ear, “Did you finally gather up the couragest night?
Congrattions!”

Uh… Emmanuel’s face turned slightly red. He hadn’t expected that such a thing would have
consequences. Should he admit it now? It was so awkward!
“What are you shy about? I’m your rtionship strategist, so I should take some credit for this. You
should treat me to a meal to thank me!” Rhea whispered quietly, sticking her tongue out.
“Okay, wait until my business is finished.” Emmanuel quickly tried to change the subject. Otherwise, the
more people knew about it, the more embarrassing it would be.
“Haha! Okay!” Fortunately, Rhea also knew when to stop and immediately shut up.
At this moment, Emmanuel heard Juan say with a sigh, “The bullet hit Ryder’s seventh and eighth
thoracic vertebrae as well as his spine. Although he is out of danger, he is likely to be paralyzed in the
future.” Then, he continued, “As for his son, after a detailed examination, I think he might have been
poisoned. Unfortunately, our hospital’s doctorsck experience in this area and are at a loss for the
time being.”
Mackenzie thanked Juan for his exnation, but she still wanted to visit Ryder and his son with
Emmanuel.
“What did Rhea just say to you?” As they walked out the door, Mackenzie quietly asked Emmanuel, her
eyes piercing. She figured that what Rhea had said must have something to do with her. This is so
embarrassing! If this happens again, I might not want to do it anymore.
“N-Nothing. She just told me about Tommy’s condition. I have to go see Tommy first,” Emmanuel still
had a will to survive, and this wasn’t exactly a lie. After all, Rhea did mention that Tommy’s condition
was urgent.
Mackenzie shot him another re and ceased discussing these personal matters. However, walking
was painful for her as she experienced a burning sensation. I’ve long been aware that this kind of thing
is not a good one. It is too detrimental to women; who would engage in it if not for love?
The four of them swiftly reached Tommy’s room. As the father and son were in separate wards,
Alessandra was looking after Ryder. Surprisingly, Tia was the one attending to Tommy here.
“Ah, Mr. Lowe and Ms. Quillen, you’re here.”
