《Marry My Hot CEO Baby Daddy》


 Chapter 1 New Surgeon Onboard

    Chapter 1 New Surgeon Onboard


    Saint Mary Hospital. Rock City. The emergency operating room.


    The red light that had been on for three hours finally went off. Signaling that the surgery has finally


    beenpleted.


    New ER surgeon Emma Lang walked out, took off her medical gloves and mask, and threw them into


    the trash can.


    The resident surgeon next to her handed her the soap. "Dr. Lang, thank God you are the head surgeon


    for this case. If it was another doctor, the patient might''ve died."


    Emma Lang pressed the lid of the hand soap bottle and squeezed it twice. She rubbed her hands and


    reminded her assistant surgeon seriously, "She''s not out of the woods yet, we have to observe the


    patient''s reaction closely. Pay attention to¡ª"


    Halfway through the conversation, Emma''s attention turned to the nurse running in the corridor and the


    smile on her lips disappeared.


    All the people in the emergency department were well-trained, so running in such a hurry could only


    mean one thing: code blue.


    Emma Lang didn''t have time to finish the follow up work. She wiped the foam in her hands and strode


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    back towards the emergency room without even drying her hands.


    Emma Lang had just pushed open the emergency room door when she heard a few nurses talking in a


    hurry.


    "What''s the matter? Another emergency case?"


    "Yes, an unconscious patient has been brought in! The hospital dean is on his way over."


    "Who''s so important to rm the dean?" Emma frowned. The Dean seldom came to the ER, unless the


    patient is really important.


    "William Montgomery!"


    William Montgomery? Emma''s breath hitches.


    "Yup. The one and only. I heard that when he fainted, he was trying on his wedding attire with his


    fianc¨¦e at the bridal shop...¡±


    Emma''s ears were ringing and she couldn''t hear the rest. Her heart hammered in her chest till the point


    it became almost painful.


    At this moment, the nurse who was monitoring his heartbeat and blood pressure noticed her and


    immediately handed her the blood test report. "Doctor Lang? You''re here! Please take a look at his


    results!¡±


    The nurse didn''t seem to notice Emma''s pale face.


    "Doctor Lang, the patient is suffering from low blood sugar, we''ve already put him on IV drip. But


    looking at his blood test results, it might be acute gastritis?"


    Emma tried to calm her racing heart as she took the blood test report with some hesitation. She looked


    at the values and took a deep breath before telling the nurse, "Leave this to me."


    "Then I''ll go receive the Dean. Take care," the nurse said.


    Emma could only nod in return.


    After the nurse walked away, Emma picked up the medical kit from the table and walked to the bedside


    of William Montgomery.


    She slowly cast her gaze towards the man lying there, her suppressed emotions fluctuating again, and


    the calmness on her face started to waver.


    William Montgomery was still unconscious, his eyes were tightly shut, appearing tired and weak.


    Even so, his cold facial features still gave off a strong sense of authority, making him seem very


    unapproachable.


    Emma''s heart ached from just looking at him. It''s been 7 years!


    She had thought they would never meet again, especially not under these circumstances.


    She instinctively raised her hand to touch his brows, but she retracted the moment she was about to


    touch him.


    Emma, what are you doing? You are just a doctor and he¡¯s your patient! This is strictly professional.


    When her rationality finally returned, Emma hid all signs of bitterness and looked away from William


    Montgomery''s gorgeous face.


    Her fingers trembled as she unbuttoned his suit jacket. A clear and familiar scent entered her nostrils.


    She held her breath, quickly pinched the end of the echometer, bent down and pressed it against his


    stomach through the shirt.


    The echoing of the stomach was clearly mixed. It was confirmed to be acute gastritis.


    Emma stood upright and took another nce at him. She was so startled that the echometer in her


    hand fell on the floor.


    On the bed, William Montgomery, who was unconscious just seconds ago, had opened his eyes. His


    tea-colored pupils emitted a deep cold light, staring straight at her face.


    He suddenly raised his hand and grabbed her wrist. The IV needle loosened from the sudden


    movement and blood instantly seeped out. Emma gasped at the sight, her pupils constricting.


    The light in his eyes darkened as he scanned the nametag on her chest.


    ER Surgeon, Emma Lang.

 Chapter 2 Youre Just My Patient

    Chapter 2 You''re Just My Patient


    William raised his head and coldly flung away his grip on her wrist. His gaze swept across Emma''s


    face, and his voice was frighteningly cold.


    "Do you know how much I don''t want to see your face?"


    This face¡­ the one he can''t escape from in his dreams, was now standing right in front of him!


    Emma''s body trembled at his words.


    She looked into the pair of cold and disgusted eyes. Her throat suddenly became dry, and even


    breathing became difficult.


    William Montgomery hated her, but she already knew that.


    She didn''t want William to see how affected she was by his presence, so she pretended to be calm and


    averted her gaze. She saw that the back of his hand was still bleeding. Emma turned around to get the


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    medical tape while trying to find her voice.


    "You are just my patient."


    Emma had started to reach out her hand to redo the IV, but William''s cold and disgusted voice sounded


    in her ear.


    "Get the hell out of my face!"


    Her hand froze mid air and something in her eyes flickered. She gave a small shrug and withdrew her


    hand. "Sure. I''ll go grab a nurse then."


    "Don''t make me repeat myself." William''s voice was practically dripping ice.


    William made Emma feel like simply being in her presence disgusted him.


    The ache in her heart returned. She responded with a quick nod. "Alright, well¡­ if you have any


    problems, press the button beside your bed."


    His only reply was silence.


    The man lying on the bed pursed his lips into a thin line. Emma didn¡¯t say another word.


    Emma Lang no longer wanted to humiliate herself. She quickly gathered her stuff and turned to escape


    from the suffocating room.


    But just as Emma was about to head out, the door suddenly flung open from outside, and at the same


    time, a familiar voice sounded, "William baby how are you¡ª"


    Emma Lang followed the sound and looked up to see Jennifer West in a Vera Wang wedding dress


    appearing at the door.


    The moment Jennifer caught sight of Emma, her red lips froze.


    Jennifer was in the changing room to try her wedding dress. The shop assistant had told her that


    William had fainted. She had rushed to the hospital without changing out of the dress. She never


    imagined that she would see Emma here. When did Emma evene back to Rock City?


    Not to mention, she was William''s doctor!


    Jennifer couldn''t help but tighten her hand into a fist, but she quickly smiled and asked, "Emma? You¡­


    When did youe back?¡±


    "A week ago," Emma answered curtly and honestly.


    A week ago, she was assigned to Saint Mary Hospital by the overseas headquarters. She never


    imagined that they would meet in such a way.


    Emma tried to not stare at Jennifer, but her heart was pierced by Jennifer''s wedding dress. Emma''s


    face turned slightly red when she caught herself staring.


    She put her hand back into her pocket and stepped aside to let Jennifer in.


    Jennifer was only stunned for a moment, she looked at William''s indifferent face and understood that


    this was all just a coincidence and felt relieved.


    Jennifer pretended as if nothing was out of the ordinary and rushed over to where William was resting.


    She sat down by the bed and said in a gentle voice, "William baby, do we know why you fainted? You


    scared me half to death.¡±


    Emma leaned sideways and tried her best to suppress her rupturing emotions.


    Fake it till you make it, Emma. She cleared her throat, "Mr. Montgomery fainted due to acute gastritis.


    In the future, please pay attention to his diet. Less greasy food and make sure to have three meals a


    day.


    "Also," she paused and considered stopping there, but she couldn''t help but add, "Drinking on an


    empty stomach could be a cause of this illness."


    William''s dark eyes narrowed, and his jaw tightened as he red at her.


    Drinking on an empty stomach? She clearly remembered his habits well!

 Chapter 3 No Need For a Bridesmaid

    Chapter 3 No Need For a Bridesmaid


    "Did you hear what Emma said? You have to eat better in the future. You never eat the lunch I pack


    you! Also, stop drinking!¡±


    She packs his lunch now? The color drained from Emma''s face as sheprehend what Jennifer said.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    Emma once bravely thought that even if they do meet again, her heart would be calm as a breeze.


    After all, it''s been 7 long years. 2560 days. She thought that no matter how deep her feelings were,


    they wouldn''t be able to withstand the passing of time.


    She thought she could stop caring about him.


    Or at the very least, be numb about it.


    However, Jennifer''s words, "You never eat the lunch I pack you", made her feel a mess of emotions


    that threatened to tear down her walls.


    Did he not eat Jennifer''s packed lunches because he promised her before that he would only eat the


    lunch she packs?


    She actually hoped for this to be true.


    "Emma, are you listening?¡± Jennifer''s voice sounded in her ears again. "There''s something I wanted to


    tell you... William and I are getting married next month. Can you attend our wedding? After all, we were


    once best friends. Since you are back in Rock City, I would love for you to be my bridesmaid.¡±


    The invitation was so sudden that Emma''s entire body tensed under her scrubs.


    Her lips trembled for a moment, but before she could speak, William already answered the question for


    her. "We''re not inviting her to the wedding."


    He lifted his eyes and nced at Emma mockingly. "Doctor Lang, what are you still doing here?"


    The indifferent tone in his voice left a crack on her heart.


    Emma was stunned. She instinctively looked at the man on the bed. His eyes were cold and his thin


    lips were shut.


    She should have known that he despised her. It was stupid to think that he still had any hint of affection


    for her left.


    Emma''s hands tightened in her pockets.


    7 years ago, he told her, "In this lifetime, I''ll only eat the lunches you pack." And he also told her,


    "Emma, you''ll be the only woman I marry."


    But 7 yearster, his one and only¡­ became Jennifer West.


    After forcing herself to calm down, Emma gathered herst bit of strength and raised her head.


    "Well, I''m busy with work anyways, thank you for the invite, Jennifer. The nurse wille and change


    the dripter."


    Emma wanted to leave before her emotions showed up on her face and gave herself away. She quickly


    finished speaking and turned around to leave.


    The moment she turned around, the sound of the ss cup shattering pierced her ears.


    Emma paused for a brief second, wanting to turn around but decided to keep walking. Tears already


    threatened to fall.


    Did he want to hit her with a ss cup but missed? Emma couldn''t help but wonder if William really


    hated her so.


    William Montgomery stared at the direction Emma left in with a sullen face,pletely obvious to the


    blood dripping down to the white bed sheets from his hand.


    "William, don''t be angry. Emma is your doctor. If you don''t want to, I can contact the dean to change to


    another doctor... "


    ¡­¡­


    Aftering out of the emergency room, Emma quickly walked straight into the bathroom and locked


    the door behind her.


    Finally she could let her real emotionse through. She clutched her chest and took a deep breath.


    Her heart was aching violently. No matter how hard she bit down on her lips, she couldn''t stop the tears


    from rolling down her face.

 Chapter 4 Fake Friends

    Chapter 4 Fake Friends


    Emma left the faucet running while she looked at herself in the mirror. Her eyes were red and puffy


    from crying.


    She sshed some water on her face to wash off the tear streaks. Her scrubs looked good on her, it


    made her feel dignified. She was doing good things, she was saving lives. She''s not worthless¡­


    If it wasn''t for that incident 7 years ago, William Montgomery would be her husband.


    7 years ago...


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    Emma Lang felt the familiar sense of panic arise in her body whenever she thought back to that


    incident. Her hands trembled as she squeezed her eyes shut.


    Stop thinking about it Emma. Just stop.


    The images of that night shed across her mind. That night in the rain, a group of men surrounded her


    in a dark alleyway¡­


    She screamed for help for what seemed like hours, but in the end, the rain drowned out her voice.


    The sound of knocking suddenly pulled Emma back from her tormented thoughts. Emma felt relieved


    something had pulled her from her dark thoughts, she didn''t want to go down that rabbit hole again.


    She took a deep breath and snapped back to her senses.


    "Who is inside? Why do you lock the door?¡±


    She hurriedly washed her hands and opened the door.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you? It¡¯s a public restroom, not yours!" A patient''s mother looked at her with a


    frowning expression.


    Emma lowered her head and quickly walked away.


    As soon as she returned to her desk, she saw thest person she wanted to see.


    "Emma." Jennifer West stood up and the white gown dragged on the floor. The sunlight outside the


    window shone on it, making it look very dazzling.


    She saw Emma''s puffy eyes and hesitated. "Are you alright?"


    "I¡¯m fine. Some hand sanitizer got into my eyes, that''s all." Emma pretended to be rxed and put the


    medical record on the table, then looked at up Jennifer, "did you need anything?"


    "Here''s the thing. William wants to change to another doctor. I figured I should tell you at least." She


    added, "It''s what he requested, in case you think I had something to do with it."


    Emma saw thising, she wasn''t surprised at all. "It doesn''t matter. Just tell the dean about this. You


    don''t need to exin anything to me."


    Jennifer knew everything about their past together, she was her best friend once upon a time after all.


    "Emma, I know you must be in pain. You must also me me. If you didn''t leave¡­" Jennifer West


    stopped and pulled Emma Lang''s hand with a sad expression. "We fell in love after you left, and you


    left for so many years Emma..."


    For some reason, Jennifer''s pitiful expression made Emma feel a little nauseous.


    Emma has always been a straightforward person, she thought Jennifer was the same way. Clearly she


    was wrong. When did Jennifer be so fake? Or maybe she''s always been this way¡­


    Still, Emma exined patiently, "It''s all behind us now. If you are worried for whatever reason, don''t be.


    I didn''te back to Rock City for William."


    Jennifer opened her mouth to speak again, but Emma''s phone rang just in time.


    Emma pulled her hand out casually and nced at the caller ID. "Jennifer, sorry, but I have to take this


    call."


    Jennifer smiled shyly. "Since you''re busy, let''s catch up another day."


    When Jennifer turned around to close the door, she paused when she heard a voice from within the


    office.


    Emma Lang identally touched the speaker, and the soft and tender voice on the other end of the


    line could be heard clearly.


    "Mommy! Guess who this is?¡±


    Mommy? Jennifer''s mouth dropped open as her hands tightened on the door handle.

 Chapter 5 Who is the Childs Father?

    Chapter 5 Who is the Child''s Father?


    Emma has a child? Who was the child''s father?


    Was she married? Or was it from those people who did that kind of thing to her 7 years ago?


    In an instant, many spections shed across Jennifer''s mind.


    If William finds out about this¡­


    Jennifer began to grow nervous when she thought about William''s reaction after seeing Emma.


    She absolutely cannot Emma stay in Rock City.


    Emma turned off the speaker that she had identally pressed. Listening to the soft voice on the


    phone, her originally gloomy mood disappeared and she grew cheerier.


    "I''m guessing it''s my darling Natalie."


    On the other end of the line, the little girl grumbled,"Hmm, how can Mommy guess correctly every


    time? Nathan and I sound the same!"


    Without waiting for Emma to reply, Nathan¡¯s voice came from the background. He sounded calm like an


    adult, and not a child. "That''s because I don''t go around asking stupid questions."


    "I don''t ask stupid questions. I''m just¡­" The little girl suddenly choked. "I just missed Mommy."


    When Emma heard her daughter wail, her heart started to tighten. "Natalie baby it¡¯s OK. When Uncle


    James finishes his work and Mommy settles in, I''ll have Uncle James bring you guys over to visit."


    When she heard the word ''Uncle James,'' the little girl cried even louder. "Uncle James doesn''t have


    time for us. Uncle James has got a new girlfriend and even brought her home too, she looks so scary


    mommy."


    Emma rolled her eyes. James had a tendency to switch girlfriends faster than his bedsheets. He was


    being a really bad role model for the kids.


    Emma frowned. "Natalie, don''t cry. Give the phone to your brother."


    The little girl was crying so hard that she couldn''t understand her words. She would better ask Nathan


    what happened.


    "Mommy," Nathan¡¯s voice came from the other end.


    Emma asked, "Did Uncle James bring his girlfriend home? Are you scared? "


    Nathan said, "No."


    "Why did Natalie say he brought his girlfriend home¡­?"


    "Yes he brought his girlfriend home, but no she didn''t scare us. On the contrary, I think that Uncle


    Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.


    James¡¯s girlfriend was scared by Natalie."


    Nathan exined to Emma what happened.


    James had promised Emma to take good care of her kids and not to mess around with women before


    she returned. However, he drank too much alcohol and brought a woman back home one night and


    forgot that he still had two children at home. Natalie suddenly appeared in a pure white nightgown with


    long hair and a doll in her hand, looking like the girl from the Conjuring. The sight nearly scared the


    living bejesus out of James''s girlfriend and she never came back after that.


    Emma couldpletely imagine the scene after listening to Nathan¡¯s narration. Although she felt quite


    sorry for James, she couldn''t help butugh out loud.


    "Mommy, you''reughing too much!" the girl mumbled unhappily on the other end of the line and said in


    a choked tone, "I don''t want to live with Uncle James. Mommy, I miss you."


    "Alright. Be a good kiddo. I''ll pick you up as soon as possible when I finish my work."


    "Mommy is lying. I don''t believe Mommy anymore. Nathan and I will go find you by ourselves."


    Emma didn''t take the two little kids¡¯ words seriously. She patiently followed her words and said, "How is


    Natalie going to find Mommy?"


    "Natalie wants to fly over with Nathan!"


    Emma smiles. Oh, children. Not a care in the world.

 Chapter 6 Please, Help Me

    Chapter 6 Please, Help Me


    The next morning, the dean personally informed Emma that she no longer needed to be in charge of


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    William Montgomery. She was arranged to tend to another patient in the VIP ward. Coincidentally, the


    room was right next to William''s.


    Emma has seen her fair share of pestering and entitled patients, but this was the first time she felt


    really annoyed.


    "Does it hurt here?" Emma pressed down on the patient''s chest, her face cold from hearing his sleazy


    remarks about her ass.


    "It''s not here. Go down."


    "Here?"


    "Go down more."


    Emma''s hands were already pressed against the male patient''s abdomen, and if she went down any


    lower¡­


    She frowned and said sternly, "Mr. Sullivan, your medical records show that you have heart murmurs. It


    doesn¡¯t say you have a problem with your prostate. If you are experiencing pain in your prostate, I''ll find


    you a doctor in the urology department."


    It''s not even noon yet, Mr. Sullivan had already rung the bell for Natalie eight times. Every time he tells


    her he is experiencing pain and if Emma doesn''te, he''ll tell the nurse he only wants Emma to


    check on him.


    "No, I just have a small problem." The man suddenly grabbed Emma''s hand and started to touch her


    wrist. "My problem is that Dr. Lang¡­you''re so beautiful I can''t stop thinking about you."


    The perverted look in the man''s eyes almost made Emma gag. Emma retracted her hands as fast as


    she could. "Mr. Sullivan, I see that you are perfectly fine now so I''m going to let you rest."


    After saying this, Emma walked out of the room without another nce backwards.


    She had just stepped out of the room when she looked up to see a familiar face.


    William Montgomery was justing back to his room after getting some scans done.


    In the corridor, the two of them looked at each other and Emma could swear the temperature dropped


    all around her. She shivered slightly after looking into William''s eyes.


    Emma was in a daze when the patient''s voice caught up to her. ¡°Where are you going? You haven''t


    finished checking me yet. If you don''t give me a full checkup, I''llin to the hospital!¡±


    Emma''s scalp went numb when she thought of the man touching her hand. In desperation, she quickly


    walked to William Montgomery''s side and held his arm. "Mr. Montgomery, are you okay?"


    William Montgomery looked at her holding onto his arm and gradually raised his head. His cold gaze


    finally fell on Emma''s face, making her feel flustered.


    "Doctor Lang!" The man had already gone out of his room, but in front of William Montgomery, he


    stopped suddenly. "Mr. Montgomery? ? Are you also not feeling well?"


    Only wealthy people can afford to live in the VIP ward of Saint Mary Hospital. It was not surprising he


    knew who William Montgomery was.


    Emma Lang looked up at William with an urgency in her eyes.


    Please, help!


    In William Montgomery''s memory, Emma was an outgoing and cheerful person. Although she worked


    hard at everything she did, she was still very feminine and knew how to use it to her advantage.


    Even today, he still couldn''t refuse her doe like eyes.


    William''s eyebrows furrowed together and said lightly, "I''m feeling unwell. Please help me back to my


    room."


    "Oh, Dr. Lang, please help Mr. Montgomery back then."


    Emma Lang nodded and helped William back to his room, she may look calm on the outside but inside


    her heart was beating extremely hard.


    She panicked and asked William for help, but only now was she realizing how unexpected it was that


    he would actually agree to help her.


    Perhaps he didn''t hate her that much?


    After helping William to his bed, Emma Lang stood up straight and thanked him. "Thank you for what


    just happened. I¡­ I''ll leave now."


    "Hold it right there."


    The voice behind her was unusually cold, like a winter breeze, sweeping over like ice surrounding her


    heart.

 Chapter 7 I Have No Interest in You

    Chapter 7 I Have No Interest in You


    "Did I say you can leave?" William looked at her mockingly. "I''m not interested in being kind to you. A


    businessman always does an equivalent exchange."


    Emma Lang''s throat seemed to be blocked by something. It took a long time to find her voice. "What do


    you mean?"


    William''s eyes swept over the namete on her chest and sneered, "Your patient is thirsty, will the kind


    doctor pour some water for her patient?"


    Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.


    Emma Lang was stunned for a moment before she quickly reacted. "I''ll go get it for you."


    There was a Brita water jar in the room, so she quickly poured some water and went back. "Here you


    go, let me know if you need anything else."


    William Montgomery looked at her and frowned slightly.


    William Montgomery didn''t take the water from her hands. She had to hold the cup in mid-air.


    "You''re really considerate to your patients. No wonder you have male patients running after you."


    Emma Lang''s heart skipped a beat. She heard the sarcastic tone in his words and her heart gradually


    sank. " As a doctor, I encounter all kinds of patients. I''ll put the water here for you and take my leave


    now."


    She put the cup down on the bedside table. Before she could turn around, she suddenly felt a sharp


    pain shoot up her wrist. She was pulled by force and she fell to the bed.


    "Ah!"


    Amidst the exmation, a shadow came down on her.


    When she realized what happened, William''s face was already on top of hers. Age has been kind to


    him, he looks almost exactly like he did 7 years ago, except now there''s a clear look of disdain on his


    face.


    "Emma Lang, I have not seen you for 7 years. Your taste in men has clearly gone down. Are you so


    desperate for money that you''ll go for dirtbags? Are you not at all afraid of embarrassing the Lang


    family?¡±


    His sarcastic voice was like a needle pricking her eardrums. Sure enough, the person who you love the


    most can hurt you the most.


    Emma tried to struggle against William but he was too strong. Emma''s face turned beet red and she


    said angrily to him, "let me go William!"


    William snorted coldly, freeing a hand, he touched her face, almost as if he was reminiscing about their


    past together.


    But in the end, he grabbed her chin tightly.


    The sudden intense pressure made Emma frown in pain.


    "Don''t think too highly of yourself. I''m not interested in you at all. It''s no wonder I''ve been feeling sick.


    It''s because you''re back in Rock City and I''m breathing the same air as you."


    Every word William said was like a stab to Emma''s heart.


    Emma clutched the bedsheet under her body and endured the pain in her body and mind, forcing


    herself to make the calmest response. "Since you have no interest, then what are you doing now?


    Don''t forget that you''re going to get married next month. If someone sees us like this it won''t look good


    for either of us. "


    The calmer Emma sounded, the darker William''s expression became.


    He hadn''t seen her for 7 years, but she didn''t feel any guilt towards him? How can she just move on


    with her life as if nothing happened?


    As soon as he thought of this, a fire seemed to burn in William Montgomery''s chest, and the force


    holding her tightened.


    "Why didn''t you care about your reputation when you decided to cheat on me and run away?"

 Chapter 8 The Biggest Humiliation

    Chapter 8 The Biggest Humiliation


    "..." Emma looked away and didn''t say anything.


    " Don''t want to talk about it? Why, did you break up with Alex?¡±


    7 years ago, Emma packed her things and left the country. She cut off all ties with her family and


    friends.


    William searched for her like a mad man, almost going crazy from worry. It was only then did he hear


    that Emma left for Europe with Alex, a new guy she was dating.


    In the 7 years after that, the thought of Emma and Alex eloping together lingered in his heart like a


    painful sore that won''t go away.


    This was the biggest humiliation of his life.


    Upon hearing Alex''s name, Emma was confused for a second but then quickly realized what William


    was talking about.


    Alex was just a sorry excuse Emma used to break up with William, hoping that this will make him move


    on with his life¡­


    "Mr. Montgomery," a nurse said, knocking on the door outside.


    Emma was startled. She pushed William Montgomery away and quickly got up from the bed to stand


    aside.


    Seeing Emma''s flustered face, William Montgomery''s cold gaze deepened.


    "What is it?" he asked through the closed door.


    "I heard that you''re not feeling well just now. Do you need a doctor to check on you Mr.Montgomery?"


    "No need. Please leave, I''m tired."


    "Of course, sorry to disturb Mr. Montgomery."


    The sound of footsteps scurrying away sounded outside.


    Emma breathed a sigh of relief and didn''t dare stay any longer. She didn''t even dare to look at William


    Montgomery again. She hurriedly said, "I still have something to do. Goodbye Mr.Montgomery."


    William Montgomery did not say anything as he watched Emma rush out of his room. For a while, he


    was a little distracted. The warmth of her face still lingered on his fingers, making his heart ache


    slightly.


    He was suddenly angry with himself. Why did he still miss this cold hearted woman after so many


    years?


    For the next two days, Emma purposely avoided the VIP ward and performed every single emergency


    surgery she could get her hands on. She figured if she stayed busy she could stop thinking about


    William.


    Jennifer visited William everyday. Jennifer did see Emma a few times in the hospital cafeteria and they


    politely but distantly greeted one another.


    "William, I asked the doctor today and he said that you still have to recuperate for a long time. Since


    staying in the hospital is no different than staying at home. Why don''t you leave the hospital earlier?"


    Jennifer pretended to be casually chatting. She was peeling a grapefruit in her hand and cutting it into


    pieces skillfully and smoothly. She handed it to William Montgomery. "Eat some fruits and get some


    vitamin C in your system."


    William''s face was nk, as if he hadn''t heard her, and she didn''t know what he was thinking.Copyright N?v/el/Dra/ma.Org.


    Jennifer''s eyes dimmed. She put the fruit on the te and changed the topic. "William, I''ve chosen a


    few wedding venues. Do you want to take a look?"


    "No need. Just pick whatever you like."


    "Alright. I know you''re busy. I''ll choose one for us then." Jennifer hesitated. "Do we need to send Emma


    an invitation card?"


    Hearing that name, William''s nk expression turned into a frown.


    Jennifer quickly exined, "I just think that we are good friends after all. It''s fine if she is overseas. Now


    that she''s back, I don''t want to be petty and not send her an invitation. If you mind, we don''t have to,


    though."


    "You''re overthinking things." William Montgomery suddenly nced at her, as if he could see through


    her thoughts.


    Jennifer shivered for some reason but she didn''t know what to say.


    William stood up from the sofa. "Didn''t you want me to leave the hospital?"


    "Ah?" Jennifer West was stunned. "Now¡­ now?"


    He let out a faint "Hmm. I don¡¯t like the hospital''s environment, and the air is suffocating."


    When he said this, his face went back to being nk and emotionless.


    Behind him, Jennifer''s hands were tightly clenched. For some reason, the more William behaved like


    this, the more uneasy Jennifer felt. It''s as if William was growing distant with her, and she did not like


    this feeling one bit.

    "Checked the patient at bed 9 a few more times in the evening."


    In the hospital corridor, Emma took interns to do rounds. She had juste out of the ward and was


    looking down at the medical records. As she walked, she checked the homework of the intern beside


    her while the others followed behind.


    "Dr. Lang, the patient of bed 8 obviously had a miscarriage. Why did you tell her family that it was an


    acute appendicitis?"


    Emma tapped on the medical record in her hand and pointed to the ''Unmarried'' and "underage"


    column. She was about to say something to the intern when she saw two familiar figures walking


    towards her from down the hall.


    William had already changed out of the hospital''s clothes, he was back to wearing his own clothes.


    Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    Emma had to admit, his shirt showed off his body really well, he''s gained a lot more muscles over the


    Jennifer had her hands looped through his arm and was smiling while saying something to William.


    The intern beside her gushed, "It''s Mr. Montgomery and his fianc¨¦e from the VIP ward. The two of them


    look like a good match!"


    In the past, when Emma was still dating William, there were very few people who knew about their


    rtionship. Jennifer being one of them.


    "Emma, I think you and William are a good match! I¡¯m so envious." That''s what Jennifer said to her


    when she found out about their rtionship.


    Now that she heard the word ''match'' again, but people are saying that about Jennifer. How ironic.


    "Ms. Lang?" the intern''s voice pulled Emma back from her thoughts.


    "Erm." She avoided her gaze as if nothing had happened. "The patient is sixteen, she has a right to


    keep her pregnancy a secret and that''s what she requested. So remember to keep the pregnancy a


    secret for now."


    "Okay, I got it."


    As they spoke, William and Jennifer stopped in front of her.


    "Doctor Lang is really busy. She doesn''t just save lives, but also teaches students."


    It sounded like apliment, but Emma could distinctly hear the mockery in William''s tone.


    They haven''t seen each other for a few days, and he''s looking better than he did when he first got here.


    He even has the energy to taunt her now.


    Jennifer took the initiative to speak first and avoid the awkwardness. "Emma, William and I are just


    about to leave the hospital."


    Her voice was gentle and intimate, as if she was talking to an old friend, but her hands that held William


    Montgomery''s arm tightened a little, on purpose without a doubt.


    Emma''s expression did not change. "Congrattions, and I wish you a happy wedding in advance. "


    "Thank you, Emma. You''re busy, we¡­"


    Before Jennifer finished speaking, William interrupted her. The tone was neither cold nor indifferent, but


    there were wisps of pressure. "If you sincerely want to congratte us, why don''t youe to the


    wedding and have a toast next month?"


    Jennifer looked up at William''s face in shock. After all, he had rejected this suggestion before.


    William raised his arm and held Jennifer West''s hand. He clenched his fingers in front of Emma and the


    interns behind her. "Without you, I would''ve never met my wonderful Jennifer. How can you not be


    there to witness our marriage?"


    William''s voice was low and soft but it was like a knife stabbing Emma''s heart.


    Emma felt like her blood was going to freeze over, and her knees almost gave out. With great difficulty,


    Emma found her voice again and said with difficulty, "The hospital is very busy. I may not have time."


    William Montgomery stared at her face and said in a cold voice, "You don''t have time or you don''t want


    toe?"


    Emma choked.


    Jennifer has never seen William act like this before, especially not in public. If this was before, Jennifer


    would be delighted that William held her hand in public, but now, she could not be happy at all.

    Chapter 10 Trouble Brewing


    The tense atmosphere made the interns behind Emma Lang realize that something was wrong and


    they started whispering.


    "Okay, I''ll go." Emma looked William right in the eyes, her face calm and her voice smooth.


    If this is how William wants to vent out his anger, then so be it.


    As they looked at each other, William''s gaze hardened. Emma backing down didn''t make him feel any


    happier.


    On the contrary, her calm demeanor made him even more unhappy.


    Suddenly, a sharp voice was heard from the other end of the hospital corridor.


    "Who is Emma Lang?"


    Following the sound, a plump middle-aged woman holding a red crocodile birkin stormed out of the


    elevator into the hallway. The look on her face clearly said she was pissed off.


    When she saw Emma, the anger on her face suddenly rose and she walked over angrily. She pointed


    at Emma Lang''s name tag and scolded, "You''re Emma Lang? You little bitch!"


    Emma frowned in confusion, she''s never seen this woman before. "Who are you?"


    SLAP!


    Emma was stunned. The ce where she was hit turned red immediately. The p was so forceful that


    her entire body tilted sideways.


    Interns started gasping. Even William''s emotionless face had changed.


    The woman was furious and screaming. "You bitch! You tried to seduce my husband, dirty whore! You


    call yourself a doctor?"


    Then she raised her hand again to p Emma.


    William suddenly let go of Jennifer''s hand and tried to step forward.


    Jennifer caught a glimpse of this tiny movement and pulled him tightly. She leaned against him and


    stopped him. "William¡­"


    On the other side, Emma was quick to recover from the shock. She grabbed the middle-aged woman''s


    hand mid air and calmly said, "You''re mistaken. I don''t know you at all.¡±


    "Of course, you don''t know me! But I know you. You''re Emma Lang, aren''t you? You are the little whore


    who''s been trying to sleep with my husband!¡±


    Someone suddenly said, "She is Mr. Sullivan''s wife in the VIP ward."


    "Did you hear that? Everyone knows who I am. You should be ashamed of yourself!"


    Emma frowned. "You are spewing nonsense! Do you have evidence, Mrs. Sullivan? I''ve never tried to


    seduce your husband."


    "Evidence?"


    Mrs. Sullivan sneered and shook Emma Lang''s hand away. "I thought doctors are supposed to be


    smart. If I don''t have any evidence, why would Ie looking for you? Since so many people are here,


    let everyone see how shameless you are."


    Mrs. Sullivan pulled out her phone from her bag and opened a video for everyone to see. She shouted,


    "Look at this! Tell me this is not her trying to seduce my husband!"


    In the video, Mr. Sullivan grabs Emma''s hand and teases her affectionately, while Emma stands there


    without reacting. People must think this was Emma''s way of silently allowing Mr. Sullivan to do as he


    pleases but in reality that''s not what happened. Whoever took this video clearly took it out of context.


    Emma Lang frowned as she watched the video.


    She remembered that day. Not long after Mr. Sullivan was admitted to the hospital, she didn''t pull her


    hand away in time because she was giving him an IV hook up. Right after, she firmly pulled his hand


    away.

    Who would do such a thing?

 Chapter 11

    Chapter 11


    Chapter 11 Is this Doctor Lang?


    "Everyone, take a closer look and see if this is Dr. Lang."


    Mrs. Sullivan held her phone and showed the contents of the video to the crowd.


    Then she nced at Emma who stood there with a stoic expression on her face. Unfazed.


    Mrs. Sullivan was used to her husband cheating on her, but she never had any evidence. She had a


    young lover herself, and she''s been wanting a divorce but she needed evidence that her husband was


    cheating on her in order to get half of all his money. Who knew God would answer her prayers so


    quickly? An anonymous person sent her this video of Emma this morning.


    As long as she made this cheating scandal big, she wouldn''t be worried about alimony in front of the


    courts.


    Thinking about how wonderful her life would be once she gets a divorce, Mrs. Sullivan spoke even


    louder. "Everyone! You''re wee to take photos and post on social media to show the world what


    kind of bitch Dr. Lang is!"


    The interns all remained professional and didn''t dare to take out their phones, but the onlookers all did.


    Especially the bored folks waiting.


    Emma sighed in frustration. She wanted to exin to Mrs. Sullivan but she didn''t even know where to


    start. This woman clearly had her own motives.


    "William, that video seems to really be Emma," Jennifer whispered to Wiliam.


    William looked indifferently at the whole scene, but if you look closely, you''ll see a storm brewing in his


    dark eyes.


    More and more people stood around to watch and take photos, so it was getting crowded and some


    people were even shoving trying to get a better look.


    After ncing at the crowd beside him, William raised his hand and grabbed Jennifer''s thin wrist,


    pulling her back from the crowd.


    "Ah!" Jennifer West eximed and identally bumped into Mrs. Sullivan when she moved sideways.


    Mrs. Sullivan staggered and her phone fell directly into the bucket that was being carried by the


    hospital cleaner. The sshing water startled the crowd.


    Mrs. Sullivan hurriedly tried to get her phone back, which attracted most people¡¯s attention.


    William held Jennifer''s hand and asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?"


    His concerned expression fell into Emma''s eyes, she tried looking away but she felt glued to the spot.


    "I''m fine honey," Jennifer said. Hershes lowered, hiding the scheming joyful look in her eyes. But to


    outsiders, she only looked gentle and caring.


    "OK." William Montgomery turned his head, and looked at Emma.


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    When their eyes met, Emma felt embarrassed still, even though she knew she didn''t do anything


    wrong. But in front of William, she felt very self-conscious. She knew what William thought of her, and


    this was not a good look.


    In a daze, a pair of long, straight legs stood by her side.


    William looked at her face, there was mockery in his eyes.


    "Miss Lang, you''ve really given me quite a few surprises in the past two days."


    Emma Lang''s throat was dry. Without waiting for her to say anything, William''s emotionless voice


    continued, and his voice seemed to be deliberately lowered. "The wedding invitation will be sent to you.


    Remember toe."


    After he finished speaking, he left. Even Jennifer was a little slow before she caught up to him.


    Emma Lang''s neck was so stiff that she couldn''t move. She didn''t even have the courage to look at


    William Montgomery. She only looked at the phone that had fallen into the water, and her ears were


    filled with whispers.


    Several security guards arrived after a while. Mrs. Sullivan, who was frantically trying to grab Emma''s


    hair, was pulled away. The dean came to mediate in person, and finally the crowd dispersed.


    ¡­¡­


    Outside the hospital, a car was parked waiting for William Montgomery.


    After getting into the car, William looked out the window and didn''t say another word to Jennifer.


    Jennifer looked at him several times and hesitated for a while. Finally, she said, "William, I think the


    video incident is probably a misunderstanding. Emma isn''t the type to do this. I''ve known her for many


    years and she isn''t a homewrecker."


    William listened, thinking.


    He remembered the day when Emma begged for his help when that Sullivan guy was after her. He


    asked as if he didn''t care, "really?"


    "Hmm, but¡­"


    Jennifer observed the man beside her and said cautiously, "But Emma''s behavior''s been strange. Back


    then, she went against her family to go abroad. Her dad was so angry that he got sick and went to the


    hospital, but he still couldn''t stop her from leaving. I wonder what she was thinking."


    Emma''s departure to go overseas is a thorn in William''s heart. No one knew this better than Jennifer.


    But at this moment, William acted as if he didn''t care at all.


    Jennifer didn''t give up and continued, "I heard from a few ssmates that Emma was actually with a


    man..."


    William''s eyes darkened, almost instantly covered with ayer of annoyance. "When did you start


    taking an interest in useless gossip?"


    Jennifer''s heart skipped a beat but she continued. "I was just chatting with a few ssmates. Emma


    isn''t that type of girl of course, besides wasn''t she..."


    Before she could finish, she suddenly realized something and her face turned pale.

 Chapter 12 Surprise!

    Chapter 12 Surprise!


    Chapter 12 Surprise!


    Emma''s rtionship with William is his dark past, nobody dares to bring it up.


    Under his cold gaze, Jennifer quickly changed her tone in panic. "William, why don''t you rest for a bit."


    The panic in Jennifer¡¯s eyes made William frown slightly.


    All these years, Jennifer had always been by his side. She has a good temper, a good education and


    family background, and she was obviously very beautiful. She''s the ideal candidate to marry into the


    Montgomery family.


    Most importantly, she was faithful to him.


    Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.


    Thinking of this, William''s tone softened a little. "Hmm, wake me when we arrive."


    "Okay."


    Jennifer asked the driver to slow down and adjusted the air conditioner.


    After doing this, she saw that the man beside her had already closed his eyes, leaning against the back


    of his seat. She still hadn''t asked what she really wanted to ask.


    Even though William hid it very well, she still saw it. In the corridor, he had deliberately pulled her back


    and that caused her to bump into Mrs.Sullivan and that''s why her phone fell into the water bucket.


    He seemingly hated Emma, but in crucial moments, he still protected her.


    Jennifer''s hands tightened and her long nails dug into her palms.


    ¡­¡­


    As she stepped out of the dean''s office, Emma''s mind was still buzzing.


    She didn''t exin the video and the dean didn''t ask much about it. After all, it was a personal issue.


    However, the impact was too bad, so her work was suspended until Mr.Sullivan''s discharged.


    Back to the apartment, Emma threw the keys and sat on the sofa. She was too tired to move.


    She didn''t know why things in her life kept going south.


    Just as she was feeling annoyed, the doorbell rang.


    Uber Eats? She hadn''t even ordered yet!


    She opened the door.


    "Surprise!" The soft and cute voice entered her ears and Emma''s thigh was hugged tightly.


    Emma looked down at the little girl clutching her thighs, her head spinning.


    "Natalie?!"


    "Mommy!" Beneath her, a cute face bloomed with a smile, like a sunflower growing in the sun.


    "Oh my God, you came alone?!"


    "Of course not!" As Natalie Lang held her mom in her arms, she turned back and shouted at the


    elevators at the end of the corridor behind her, "Nathan! Hurry up!"


    As the wheels of the suitcase rolled over the ground, Nathan, dressed in a white casual suit, pushed


    two children''s luggage and followed his sister into the house.


    "Girls are so troublesome. I told you not to bring so many things."


    Emma was even more surprised when she saw her son.


    Nathan nodded and then raised his chin to point to the room behind Emma. ¡°Is this your apartment?¡±


    The two children were born abroad and grew up abroad. This was the ce Emma Lang had


    temporarily rented for work. This was their first timeing here.


    Emma Lang looked behind the two children. "Wait, where''s Uncle James?"


    "He didn''te." Nathan calmly moved the suitcase into the apartment.


    "What?!" Emma Lang''s voice instantly raised. She was so shocked that she couldn''t speak. ¡°The two of


    you came by yourself? How did you do that?¡±


    Even Emma''s disapproving tone didn''t stop Nathan from walking into the bedroom with the suitcases.


    Natalie held her mom''s legs and didn''t let go. Her voice was soft and cute, and she looked innocent. "I


    wanted to fly over with my brother. Mommy, I told you before."


    "Huh?" Emma Lang looked down at her daughter before looking up at her son who had already sat


    down to drink water. She suddenly remembered that the two of them had indeed said this over the


    phone two days ago.


    She just didn''t think they would actually fly over.

    Chapter 13 The Little Monkeys


    "You¡¯d better exin to me what is going on."


    After she calmed down, the first thing Emma did was call James to condemn him scathingly.


    How could he just let her two young children leave without adult supervision?! What would happen if


    they got hurt or god forbid, kidnapped?! Emma was practically seething.


    James grumbled, he felt bad too but he didn''t have a say in this.


    "The two of them booked tickets on my phone."


    "Where were you? You didn''t know about your phone?¡±


    " I just woke up two hours ago, Emma. Can you believe it? I was struck by your two little devils. They


    put sleeping pills in my drink! I slept for a whole day and there were over ten missed calls from the


    hospital. I''m putting on my pants and I have to go to the hospital immediately!"


    When she heard this, Emma looked at Natalie and Nathan, bewildered.


    "Did you two drug uncle James??"


    Natalie was munching on a peach and replied, "What are drugs?"


    Emma snorted. She knew her daughter down to a tee. It was obvious that she did it.


    Emma thought to herself, Natalie should be an actress when she grows up. She''ll win the Oscars for


    sure with her superb acting skills!


    "Are the two little monkeys alright?" On the other end, James had just put on his pants and was about


    to go out.


    "They¡¯re fine. They''re safe here. Otherwise, I wouldn''t have called you."


    "I can¡¯t talk to you anymore. If I don''t go to the hospital, the dean will really kill me."


    "Hey, wait, when are youing back?" Emma Lang held her forehead and walked to the side to get a


    drink of water. "I can''t handle them alone."


    " Emma Lang, they¡¯re your children but I was the one to change the diaper. Am I your maid or your


    friend?¡±


    "I don''t care." Emma Lang leaned against the bar. "After all, the two of them grew up with you. I can''t


    Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.


    manage them. You have toe back quickly, or I will die."


    "Oh bloody hell, what did I do to deserve you Emma?¡±


    Although James wasining, he was still worried about Emma''s abilities as a mother.


    "I''ll try to wrap up my work here and head over soon, but Emma..."


    On the phone, he asked, "You''ve returned to Rock City. Aren''t you going to take them to see their


    dad?"


    Emma stopped drinking water. "I saw him at the hospital."


    In the living room, Natalie finished eating a whole juicy peach. Her stomach was like a small ball as she


    slowly slid from the sofa to the carpet. Then she nudged her brother who was ying a game on his


    Nintendo Switch.


    "Nathan¡ª"


    Nathan kept ying the game and said, "Don''t even think about wiping your hands on me. Go to the


    kitchen and wash your hands."


    "Hmph!" Natalie pouted and walked into the kitchen.


    The moment she reached the kitchen, she heard Emma''s voice.


    "He doesn''t know about Nathan and Natalie. It''s been so many years, so I can¡¯t just tell him. Forget it,


    he''s getting married next month."


    He? Who? Papa?


    Natalie''srge round eyes suddenly lit up. She gently slid behind a cab and raised her ears.


    "It''s all in the past now. I don''t want to disturb him."

    At night, Emma put the two children to sleep, then she gently closed the door and went back to her


    room to rest.


    Over the past seven years, it''s all thanks to James that she''s able toplete her degree and raise her


    kids. Without James''s help, she would not be able to take care of the kids and her studies at the same


    time.


    Nathan was sensible, but Natalie was a wild child. The two of them made a lot of trouble together.


    Ever since the two children were able to say something and walk independently, it wasmon to


    cause trouble in her life. However, thanks to her two children, she''s also gained a lot of love and


    warmth. They made leaving William more bearable.


    In the kids¡¯ bedroom, Natalie hops off of her bed and runs over to Nathan''s bed.


    Nathan was already asleep when he felt his sistere into his nket. He said with his eyes closed,


    "Natalie, you''re already 7 years old. You can''t sleep with me anymore."


    But even as he said this, he moved over to give his sister space.


    Natalie Lang popped her head out of the quilt and blinked at her brother. "Nathan, I heard mommy


    calling Uncle James today. It seemed like she mentioned our father."


    "So?"


    "Father is here in Rock city! Mommy even said that she saw him at the hospital."


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "And?"


    "Mommy has never had a boyfriend. She must''ve been waiting for daddy. If Daddy knows the two of us,


    will they get back together?"


    Nathan frowned. "Natalie, we shouldn''t be concerned about the grownups'' affairs."


    Natalie didn''t listen to her brother''s words and said, "I think daddy must be particrly handsome. I


    want to know what kind of person he is. I want to go find him."


    Nathan frowned even more when he saw his sister''s excited expression.


    He had a bad feeling that his sister was going to make trouble again.


    ¡­¡­


    Suspension was a rare opportunity for Emma to take a break from work. She didn''t have time to clean


    up the apartment before so she took this opportunity to clean it up.


    She didn''t have to worry about the two children. They were even more familiar with all the food delivery


    apps than her.


    The only bad thing was that the two children would run away without telling their mother where they


    were going!


    She wasn''t too concerned though. If her kids can fly here by themselves, they will be fine in Rock City.


    Especially with Nathan around, her son was extremely smart and sensible for a seven year old child.


    After a few days of rest, Emma went out and bought some gifts. She figured she would have to go to


    the Lang familypound to visit her family.


    Having note back for 7 years, her feet seemed to be stuck to the ground. She could not move for a


    long time.


    The door of the vi opened and the maid, Rose, came out with a rubbish bag. When she saw Emma


    Lang, she paused.


    "Miss Emma, is it really you?!"


    Emma was stopped by Rose and her eyes instantly turned red.


    "It''s been so long since you''ve left. It''s been 7 years. You have a stubborn temper. Why didn''t youe


    back sooner¡­"


    "Rose, it''s okay. I''m back now, that''s all that matters."


    Rose wipes away a tear, "of course Miss,e on follow me in."


    She followed Rose and walked into the courtyard. The flowers and trees looked the same 7 years ago.


    All were neatly trimmed. The swing in the yard was still there, but it looked a little old, as if no one had


    used it for a long time.


    Before she could enter, a woman appeared at the door.


    "Nice of you to finallye back, Emma. I thought you were dead."


    Emma turned her head and looked at the woman with simr features as her but younger, "Rachel?"

    The one who spoke was Emma''s younger sister, Rachel Lang.


    At this moment, she was leaning against the door frame with her hands in her arms. She stood there


    This pretty face has been named as the most beautiful face in Rock City three years in a row. Rachel


    has been getting main roles in Hollywood and globally as well. You can find her on cover photos and


    Ads everywhere.


    It was a pity that the moment she opened her mouth, her beauty was ruined. . "How dare youe


    back?" Rachel calmly stood there and looked at Emma with sarcasm. "If I remember correctly,


    someone swore to nevere back to the Lang family 7 years ago."


    Emma Lang''s hand tightened and she didn''t expect this kind of hostility from her own baby sister!


    In the past, she was young and naive. She knew how difficult it was to be a parent only after she


    became a mother. Only then did she really understand the feelings of parents watching their children


    make mistakes.


    "Rachel, I came back to see Dad. How is he?"


    "Thanks to you, Dad stayed in the hospital for half a year before he came home."


    Emma felt guilt wash over her when she heard this. "I was wrong back then."


    Rachel snorted coldly and mocked, "How could you, the perfect Emma, be wrong? You were the center


    Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    of the world and everyone adored you. But seriously Emma, the Lang family doesn''t want you back.


    You should just leave."


    Rose couldn''t stand it anymore and wanted to say something. "Miss Rachel, Miss Emma is part of the


    Lang family¡­"


    But Rachel interrupted her without hesitation. "Rose, why did you bring her inside? You know what


    Daddy said about hering home."


    Rose was speechless and she looked at Emma Lang with an awkward expression on her face.


    Emma didn''t want to argue. She put down the gifts she prepared and said, "Rose, it''s fine. I''ll leave


    now. I''ll put the gifts here."


    Just as she went out of the door, Rachel''s voice was heard. "Rose, throw this trash out. The farther you


    throw it, the better. We don''t want her stuff!"


    Emma Lang clenched her hands tightly and endured her sister''s taunts.


    She knew her sister wasn''t a bad person deep down. She was acting like this because she felt hurt and


    med Emma for leaving and making their father sick.


    ***


    The sky had turned gray. Rock City was enveloped inrge stormy clouds and the weather forecast


    said there would be thunderstorms.


    A ck Mercedes-Maybach moved swiftly on the road. The rain came rapidly and mmed against the


    car windows.


    From the rearview mirror, the driver noticed William''s impatience, and he slowed down the car. "This


    rain is estimated to go on for a while. Fortunately, I have listened to you. I''ve taken this road these past


    few days. Otherwise, we¡¯d be stuck in traffic jams on I-90."


    For some reason, William had asked him to take this road to thepany startingst week, even


    though the interstate was closer.


    The car stopped at the intersection. While waiting, the rain outside became heavier. Watching outside


    of the car window, William''s eyes suddenly tightened and he sat upright.


    On the other side of the road, Emma had her bag over her head as she ran in the rain to the distant


    bus stop. Her body was drenched and she looked extremely miserable.


    She was the same as she was seven years ago. She never remembered bringing an umbre on rainy


    days.

 Chapter 16 Get in the Car

    Chapter 16 Get in the Car


    Chapter 16 Get in the Car


    "Oh isn''t that Dr. Lang from Saint Mary Hospital?"


    The driver, Toby, recognized Emma because he met her at the hospital. "Mr. Montgomery, do you want


    to give Dr. Lang a ride?"


    In the back seat, William''s thin lips tightened. After the green light lit up, he coldly withdrew his gaze


    and said, ¡°No need.¡±


    Toby nodded and didn''t dare say anything more. He immediately drove away.


    The rain got heavier and the thunder cracked the dark gray sky. The rain was pouring down so hard


    that even the fastest rain wiper made it hard to see.


    William''s brows furrowed more and more.


    The car was too quiet. They could only hear the sound of heavy rain beating outside the window. When


    Toby was about to turn in another direction, another loud crack of thunder sounded. Suddenly William


    ordered, "Toby, turn back."


    At the bus stop, Emma sighed when she saw that no uber or lyft were avable within thirty minutes.


    She silently pulled out a handkerchief and wiped the rain on her neck.


    Her clothes were soaked and they were cold on her body. In this damn weather, she might catch a cold


    by the time she arrives home.


    As she was trembling from the cold, a ck car arrived and stopped in front of her.


    Emma was confused when the car window slowly rolled down, revealing a familiar face.


    William Montgomery''s cold eyes looked at her from the car window.


    "Get in the car."


    Emma was stunned. Maybe it was William''s tone that was so authoritative, or maybe she was too cold,


    but she listened to William and got into the car.


    As soon as she got into the car, William asked her, "Where do you live?"


    "Ah?" Emma Lang finally realized this question.


    There were two children at home. If William sees them...


    "I live quite far away. I''d better get out of the car," Emma Lang said as she quickly pulled the door


    handle.


    Unfortunately, the car got locked automatically the moment she got in. She couldn''t open it.


    Before she finished speaking, William had already ordered the driver, "Toby, to my penthouse."


    After he gave the order, he looked at Emma Lang with a cold expression. "I don''t mind bringing you


    back to my ce."


    Emma Lang''s expression changed to a worried one. "No, let me get out of the car. I''ll just get a cab


    home."


    The car was already moving. Toby only listened to William, so nothing Emma said could make him


    change directions anyways.


    Looking at William''s cold face, Emma could only admit that she was unlucky.


    Forget it. At worst, I''ll get out of the car and get a taxi when I get to his residence, Emma Lang thought


    to herself.


    She didn''t notice that Toby was quietly examining her from the rearview mirror. For as long as he''s


    been William''s driver, he''s never seen William bring back any woman to the penthouse. Not even


    Jennifer, his fiancee!


    Half an hourter, the car arrived at the penthouse.


    It was just as grand as she''d imagined it would be. Floor to ceiling windows made the space look both


    Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    modern and artistic. High ceilings with a huge chandelier that must''ve cost a fortune. The entire color


    scheme was cool, matching William''s personality. Even Emma had to admit, William had good taste in


    interior design.


    Emma Lang stood at the door hesitantly, her eyes looking around the penthouse.


    William Montgomery didn''t even look at her and entered the house.


    She couldn''t leave even if she wanted to.


    Once they entered the living area, a maid came over and poured tea for her. "Miss Lang, please have


    some hot tea."


    "Thank you." Emma nodded.


    William went upstairs, leaving Emma to sit alone in the living room.


    The maid took out a set of clean clothes. "Miss Lang, here are some dry clothes."


    "No need. I''ll leave when the rain stops."


    "The rain will not stop soon. I can dry your clothes for you quickly after you change. You will catch a


    cold when you wear wet clothes."


    Emma hesitated a little when she saw the rain outside.


    Wearing wet clothes was indeed making her feel very ufortable. In the end, she couldn''t resist the


    maid''s persuasion and went upstairs to change.


    The maid only said that it was the second-to-thest room on the second floor and didn''t say which


    end. Emma Lang thought it was no different. She knocked on the door and no one answered. She


    opened the door and walked in with the clothes in her arms.


    The bedroom was huge, but the decoration was concise. It was as if the room was still being staged for


    sale, and she couldn''t see any personal items in the room. Even the bedsheets were pure white like


    those in a hotel.


    Emma lowered her head and unbuttoned her shirt.


    The door behind her suddenly opened.

 Chapter 17 Are you done ogling?

    Chapter 17 Are you done ogling?


    Chapter 17 Are you done ogling?


    Emma turned her head and spun around.


    William had juste out from the bathroom with only a towel wrapped around his waist, and his wet


    hair was still dripping water.


    Emma''s mouth drops at the sight. William''s body was built like a Greek statue, perfectly chiseled abs


    and her eyes lowered¡­


    "Are you done ogling?"


    William stared at her, his eyes slowly falling to her chest, and he smiled coldly. "Do you just take your


    clothes off in front of men now?"


    Emma suddenly got her senses back. She eximed in surprise and clenched her shirt tightly.


    William Montgomery looked at her with disdain. He looked away and reached for his bathrobe.


    Emma Lang was so embarrassed and said, "Sorry! I didn¡¯t know this was your room."


    "Do you know that this is my house?" William retorted back.


    "How long do you n to just stand here?"


    This made her speechless.


    She snapped back to reality and hurriedly picked up the clothes on the bed and rushed out.


    When Emma disappeared and the door closed behind her, William slowly breathed out. His chest


    suddenly heaved and he clutched the bathrobe tightly in his hands.


    After changing into the bathrobe, William Montgomery sat down by the bed and pulled out a pack of


    cigarettes from the drawers. Just then, the sound of the phone vibrating on the nightstand alerted him.


    It was Emma''s phone. She had forgotten to take it with her.


    The name ''Baby'' on the caller disy made William''s eyes darken. His long fingers hovered over the


    screen and hesitated for a second before he pressed the answer button.


    A soft voice came from the other end of the line. "Mommy, when are youing back today? I want to


    eat a cupcake! Nathan won''t let me eat any!¡±


    Emma opened the door with one hand. "Sorry, I must''ve forgotten my phone..." When she saw William


    holding her phone in his hand, her expression changed. She almost instantly rushed to him, grabbed


    her phone and quickly hung up.


    William looked at her with a deep gaze and said, "You''re married with children?"


    Emma took two steps back and bumped into the bed.


    William walked closer to Emma, his eyes were deep and bottomless, "Who are you married to? Alex?"


    "None of your business, William." Emma tried to leave. She didn''t want William to know about the


    children.


    "Is this the reason why the Lang family kicked you out? Right?¡±


    William grabbed her wrist. Her phone slipped and mmed onto her foot. The sudden pain had her


    staggering and falling to the bed.


    Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    William fell to the bed with her, his hands on either side of her head. The smell of the shower gel


    pervaded, mixed with the faint tobo smell. Their noses were so close that it almost looked like they


    were going to kiss. Emma could feel a blush creeping up her cheeks.


    Emma came back to her senses and pushed on William''''s chest and said, "You...what are you doing?"


    The man''s brows twitched as he tightened his grip on her shoulder. "You think you''re so good at


    manipting men, don''t you? You can just bat yourshes and men will fall under your feet?¡±


    "I didn''t think like that at all."


    "But you do it anyways."


    William''s voice turned deep and husky, it sounded almost¡­sexy.


    Emma looked into William''s eyes. For a moment she thought she saw something. Was it pain that


    shed across his eyes?


    The droplets of water from his hair rolled down and fell on Emma''s neck. They slid down her


    corbone. The cold sensation made here back to reality. She said, ¡°William Montgomery, should I


    remind you that you are the one getting married?¡±


    The word ''married'' made William regain rity, at the same time, the pain disappeared from his eyes


    and was reced by the familiar coldness. He pressed on Emma''s shoulder even tighter.


    Emma was in pain as her delicate brows furrowed. She still didn¡¯t give an exnation because she


    didn''t want to exin to him at all about her children and her nonexistent love life.


    William was annoyed by her silence, but he finally let her go.


    "Get out of my room."


    His voice wasn''t loud but his voice was so chilly that Emma shivered. The temperature in the room


    seemed to have dropped.


    Emma gritted her teeth and picked up her phone to run away.


    This time, she mmed the door behind her.


    Two worlds, separated by a single door.

 Chapter 18 Fever

    Chapter 18 Fever


    Chapter 18 Fever


    It was still raining outside, the rain beating hard against the ss window. William stood by the window


    and watched the lightning crackling in the sky. His expression was stoic but you can tell he was deep in


    thought.


    The housekeeper''s voice came from behind. "Mr. Montgomery, Toby is on his way to send Miss Lang


    home."


    William twisted the blinds shut and turned around to face the housekeeper.


    The young girl''s voice on the phone echoed in his ears for a long time.


    "Mr. Montgomery, it''s time for you to take your medicine." The housekeeper held the water and the pills.


    William thought of something strange after clearing his head. He frowned. "Tell Toby toe see me


    when he gets back."


    He and Emma broke up 7 years ago. She eloped and got married, went overseas to have children?


    What else did he not know about this woman?


    He had to figure out everything.


    ***


    After returning home, Emma went to bed without even washing her face. After sneezing a few times,


    her body started to heat up. As a doctor, she knew she caught a cold and was running a fever. But she


    had no energy left in her body to get up and take meds.


    In a fevery daze, she didn''t even know who was talking to her.


    "Mommy!"


    "Shh, Natalie, Mommy has a fever."


    "Ah! What should we do?¡±


    "I''ll call Uncle James and ask him what medicine we should buy."


    "It''s raining outside. I''m going to change my shoes. Nathan, let''s go buy medicine for mommy."


    The night was very dark and the heavy rain filled the streets and alleys.


    At the pharmacy just down the street, the two children grabbed the medicine rmended by Uncle


    James and went to the counter to pay.


    Natalie wore a pair of pink crocs and had her hair up in two buns. She looked so adorable that the


    cashier took out her phone to take a picture.


    "That''ll be twelve dors. Where are your parents?"


    The cashier nced behind the two children but didn''t see any adults with them.


    Nathan lowered his head to grab his wallet from his backpack. Natalie stepped closer to the counter


    and said, "We live just across the street in that apartment building, our mom has a fever so we''re here


    to buy her some medicine. "


    It was toote for Nathan to stop her.


    Sure enough, the cashier immediately grabbed the two boxes of medicine in front of her. "Kids, the


    pharmacy has a rule that we can''t sell medicine to children under sixteen. You''d better let the adults


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    buy them."


    "Ah?" Natalie Lang was stunned and her eyes were watery. "But Mommy has a fever!"


    "Then let your father buy it."


    "We don''t have¡­"


    "Natalie," Nathan interrupted his sister and pulled her down from the counter. He gave the cashier a


    polite nod.


    With Natalie still looking depressed, he pulled her out of the store.


    The two of them held their small umbres while Nathan reminded his sister, "Natalie, let''s try another


    pharmacy. This time, tell them our mom is waiting for us in the car."


    "Oh, okay."


    As they were talking, a male voice came from behind them, "Wait."


    The two little children paused, and turned around to see a pair of long legs standing in front of them.


    They looked up at the tall man.


    The man crouched down slowly in front of them, revealing a handsome face under a ck umbre.


    While he looked at them, he handed over a bag of medicine that they were trying to buy from the


    pharmacy.


    Natalie''s eyes lit up and she reached her hand out excitedly. "Thank you! Mr.Handsome!"


    "Natalie, don''t." Nathan pulled his sister''s arm back and looked at the man in front of him with suspicion


    in his eyes.


    "Thanks, but we don''t need your help Mister."

 Chapter 19 Single Mother

    Chapter 19 Single Mother


    Chapter 19 Single Mother


    Natalie was confused by her brother''s words.


    "But Nathan!"


    "Let''s go Natalie."


    It was rare for Nathan to show a stern expression. In addition to being vignt, he looked at the man in


    front of him with more hostility than a child of his age.


    "We can buy it ourselves."


    After saying this, Nathan pulled his sister away and lectured her, "You can''t just casually take things


    from a stranger. I''ve told you many times but you don''t listen."


    "But, Nathan, that man looks so handsome. He definitely isn''t a bad person."


    "He''s not handsome at all."


    "No, he''s handsome."


    Looking at the two children walking far away, William Montgomery straightened up, and his face looked


    particrly cold in the rain. He handed the umbre to the assistant following him.


    "Mr. Montgomery, those two children¡­"


    "Go and follow them, but don''t do anything."


    "Yes sir."


    After watching the assistant follow the two children, William returned to the car and lit a cigarette while


    rolling down the window slightly.


    Not too far ahead was the entrance to the apartment building where Toby said he dropped off Emma.


    The sound of the phone vibrating in the car rang several times as William took slow drawls of his


    cigarettes. Toby was in the car with him as well.


    "Mr. Montgomery," the driver cautiously reminded him, "Miss West has made a few calls."


    William looked out of the window, his cold gaze distant.


    Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    The two children he had just seen at the pharmacy¡­ The girl looked exactly like a miniature Emma.


    As for that boy, he actually looked like himself. William''s frown deepened.


    He had been waiting outside the apartment building for the assistant toe back. From inside the car


    window, he saw the little girl jumping all the way inside, followed by the little boy as they entered the


    apartment building.


    The assistant said, "Mr. Montgomery, these two children are quite smart. They told the people in the


    pharmacy that they don''t have a father. It''s not easy for their single mother who can''t find parking in the


    rain. The little girl cried when she said those words."


    Single mother. William''s brows twitched.


    He didn''t know if she was really a single parent, or if it was all just a lie. However, regardless of whether


    it was the former or thetter, he had to thoroughly investigate who the father of the two children was.


    William nced at the roof of the apartment building, his eyes now calm. He ordered the assistant,


    "Find out the birth date of these two children and send it to my office tomorrow morning."


    The assistant was stunned, but he immediately nodded, "Yes, Mr. Montgomery."


    After a moment of silence, William Montgomery said, "Also, hire a P.I. I want a full report on Emma


    Lang''s past seven years."


    Reminiscing about the past 7 years, William''s heart started aching again. The sensation he''s been


    trying to get rid of all these years but failed.


    Emma breaking up with him and leaving Rock City 7 years ago was the first time he experienced


    heartbreak.


    The heartbreak still isn''t healed, even 7 yearster.


    The ck car slowly drove out of the neighborhood, and William''s eyes continued to look at the


    apartment behind him in the rearview mirror.


    Emma''s return brought back a lot of feelings that he''s been repressing. He could handle it when she


    isn''t in Rock City, but now that she''s back¡­ the emotions have all resurfaced.


    He wanted an exnation, and she had to be responsible for that.


    Meanwhile, in a mansion ten miles south of the apartment Emma lived in, a Hermes porcin cup fell


    to the living room floor and shattered. The tea sshed everywhere and the maids were frightened.


    Jennifer West had made a few calls to William Montgomery, but he didn''t answer the phone. Jennifer''s


    knuckles have turned white from clutching her phone.


    She was looking at the footage from the security camera sent to her, it was the front door camera of


    William''s penthouse.


    ¡°No, I can''t wait anymore. That bitch absolutely cannot stay in Rock City anymore,¡± Jennifer West said


    to herself.


    Jennife''s face darkened. "Julie, I heard that Rachel Lang''s birthday party is going to be held at Rock


    City Regency Hotel this weekend."


    "Yes." The maid, Julie, had been by her side since she was young. She was Jennifer''s most trusted


    person.


    "Do you think Rachel Lang, who hated Emma since they were young, would take an opportunity to step


    on her sister in front of their friends and family?"


    "Miss, what do you mean?"


    "Go, take out the thing from the safe. Emma hasn''t been back in seven years, I should give her a big


    gift for her return. "


    When she thought about the thing she had put in the safe for 7 years, a cold smirk shed across


    Jennifer''s face. She was afraid that Emma woulde back, so she kept a fail-safe.


    "Emma, it''s your fault foring back."


    If William Montgomery could see the look on Jennifer West''s face, he would not be able to recognize


    her.

 Chapter 20 Rachel Langs Birthday Party

    Chapter 20 Rachel Lang''s Birthday Party


    Chapter 20 Rachel Lang''s Birthday Party


    It had been raining consecutively for one week in Rock City. The rainy weather was starting to make


    people feel depressed.


    The CEO office of the Montgomery Corporation was filled with the aroma of coffee.


    William Montgomery just finished another meeting and handed the signed document to his assistant.


    "Let the finance department recheck it. If there''s no problem, tell the legal team to start the acquisition."


    "Yes sir."


    "Push Mr. Hall to reduce the price by three more percent. If he doesn''t want to, you might suggest that


    Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    Helios Corporation is also in contact with us and their price is lower."


    "I have a feeling Mr. Hall will agree. The business department is already working on the contract."


    "Great." William nodded and took a sip of his coffee. One cream, no sugar, just the way he prefers.


    "One more thing, Mr. Montgomery, this is an invitation sent by Miss Rachel Lang."


    The assistant took out an invitation from the pile of documents he was holding and put it on the desk.


    "This Saturday is Miss Lang''s birthday. The Lang family is going to hold a birthday banquet at Rock


    City Regency Hotel."


    "Rachel Lang?"


    "She''s the lead actress in an uing film thepany invested in, you''ve met her before."


    William naturally knew who Rachel Lang was. In addition to investing in movies, he also knew that she


    was Emma Lang''s sister.


    Seeing that William didn''t respond, his assistant thought maybe he didn''t want to go.


    "Mr. Montgomery, would you like me to purchase a gift and send it in your ce and tell Miss Lang you


    are busy that day?"


    Looking at the invitation card, William''s eyes squinted, and his lips slightly parted. "No need, I have


    time on Saturday."


    The assistant raised his brow in surprise, but quickly nodded. "I''ll RSVP right away."


    William did not touch the invitation card on the table, but picked up the report that appeared on his desk


    a few days ago, regarding the birth date of the two children.


    The first page was a copy of their birth certificate with their exact time of birth.


    Calcting the time Emma broke up with him, to the time of the twin''s birth¡­ it means the children


    could be his.


    Could these two really be¡­?


    William pulled out a cigarette and lit it. He didn''t notice that his hands were slightly trembling.


    ¡­¡­


    Saturday was finally sunny! There wasn''t even a single cloud in the sky.


    At first, when Emma received the invitation from Rachel Lang, she thought her sister had sent it to the


    wrong address. However, the invitation had her name on it.


    It''s not that Emma did not think that Rachel might have ulterior motives for inviting her. But the birthday


    party was her only chance to see her father, so she had to attend no matter what.


    Emma Lang arrived at the Regency hotel early.


    As soon as she entered, she saw Rachel Lang waving at her from afar. "Emma! Come here, this way!"


    Emma Lang''s heart tightened when she saw the familiar figure behind Rachel Lang from afar. Her legs


    felt weak at the sudden sight of her father.


    Compared to 7 years ago, her father was obviously much older. His back was no longer straight and he


    had quite a lot more gray hairs.


    When he saw Emma, Mr. Lang''s smiling face suddenly disappeared.


    "Dad." Emma walked up to him but didn''t dare to take another step forward.


    She felt guilty and med herself for her father''s aging. Her departure from Rock City really left its toll


    on him.


    "Emma?" Aunt Barbara recognized Emma. "It really is you, Emma!" Then Aunt Barbara turned to


    Emma''s father and said, "It''s been so long that I almost didn''t recognize her."


    Another distant rtive chimes in, "We haven''t seen her for a long time, didn''t Uncle Joseph say that


    she had gone abroad to study?"


    The rtives were babbling and no one noticed the subtle atmosphere between Joseph Lang and his


    daughter.


    Rachel Lang stood in the middle of the crowd and smiled. "My sister is currently a doctor at Saint Mary


    Hospital. She''s working hard and saving lives.¡±


    Emma looked at Rachel in astonishment. She never imagined that she would speak for her in front of


    rtives.

 Chapter 21 Where Did the Child Come From?

    Chapter 21 Where Did the Child Come From?


    Chapter 21 Where Did the Child Come From?


    Rachel''s words shocked everyone standing around.


    Aunt Barbara held Emma Lang''s hand and eximed sincerely, "Really, Saint Mary hospital? It is not


    easy for a doctor to secure a position in that hospital. Since when did you start working there?¡±


    Emma looked at her father''s expression and began carefully. "Recently, Aunt Barbara. I''ve juste


    back to Rock City."


    "Joseph, look at your girls. Emma is a doctor, Rachel is an actress. and it''s not easy either. You raised


    them so well, their mother would be proud."


    Knowing that Emma had not wasted her studies over the years and that she found a good job,


    Joseph''s cold expression eased a bit.


    Joseph looked at his daughter. Although he still had a stern face, he was no longer as gloomy as


    before. He said, "Being a surgeon is a lot of responsibility, you must continuously study and improve


    yourself."


    Emma was so happy that her father was speaking to her, she nodded carefully. "I will, Dad."


    "Oh Emma, I wish you were my daughter." Another aunty chimes in.


    "That''s right, having a daughter like Emma is a blessing. I liked this child when she was very young."


    Aunt Barbara gives a heartyugh.


    On the other side, Rachel teased her rtives. "My sister is still single! Aunt Barbara, Uncle Jordan,


    you know so many people. Help my sister to find a boyfriend."


    Aunt Barbara loved ying matchmaking. "Yes, the single rate is high among doctors, but Emma is so


    excellent. Don¡¯t worry about finding a boyfriend! Leave it to your aunt."


    No one noticed that Emma Lang''s expression was a little awkward when it came to this matter. Mr.


    Lang also frowned.


    As people were chatting, a soft voice came from the periphery of the crowd.


    Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, the pink figure suddenly ran through the crowd and jumped


    into Emma''s arms. Her face flushed as she gasped, "Mommy, I found you!"


    Emma held Natalie but all the color drained from her face.


    Why was Natalie here?


    The word ''Mommy'' startled everyone around them and they looked at each other.


    "Who is this child? Where did shee from?¡±


    "Didn''t Rachel just say Emma was single?¡±


    "Who is the child''s father?"


    Emma''s first reaction was to look back at her father. When she saw her father''s cold expression, her


    heart sank.


    Years ago, he had cut off their father-daughter rtionship and kicked her out of the family because


    she refused to get an abortion. Her father also fell ill due to this and was in the hospital for six months,
