Chapter 92\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the morning, when Scarlet came downstairs, William and Julian were already seated at the dining table.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was a long table, and when the elders were around, the seats were always fixed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
William and Julian sat opposite each other.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlet had no choice but to sit next to William, no matter how much she wanted to avoid him. Hence, she walked over and took her place beside William..\u00a0<\/p>\n
The latter glanced at her and let out a short, amused chuckle.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Julian looked at him. \u201cWhat\u2019s with that cold laugh so early in the morning?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
William lifted the cup of coffee in his hand. \u201cWell, teach me how to do a warm one instead.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Julian was left speechless.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlet knew exactly the hidden meaning behind William\u2019s cold laugh. She turned away. \u201cI\u2019ll call Emily.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After a while, Arthur and Justine came in and took their seats.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlet helped Emily sit in the main seat before returning to sit beside William.\u00a0<\/p>\n
While they were eating, Ellen appeared from one of the guest rooms on the first floor.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Emily was curious. \u201cDid we have guests over last night?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ellen, looking a little uneasy, replied, \u201cMr. Cooper slept here last night.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Everyone at the table froze for a moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Emily shot a look at William and Scarlet. \u201cWhy on earth did you sleep in the guest room?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlet didn\u2019t know how to answer.\u00a0<\/p>\n
William, on the other hand, casually replied, \u201cI got back late and didn\u2019t want to disturb her.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He then picked up a piece of food for Scarlet in front of everyone. His lips curved into an affectionate smile, and his voice was cloyingly tender. \u201cSweetheart, have some more.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlet glanced at the garlic in the dish. \u201cThank you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Perhaps Arthur thought William was overdoing it. He cleared his throat. \u201cAlright. Let\u2019s eat.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After breakfast, Scarlet said, \u201cEmily, how about I take you to the hospital for another checkup? Dr. Tucker just returned to Lebavia last week. I can make an appointment and see if he can do anything.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lachlan Tucker was the country\u2019s top authority on stomach cancer and had performed Emily\u2019s surgery before.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ellen appeared nervous upon hearing that.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Emily definitely couldn\u2019t go through with the checkup, or it would all be exposed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Emily remained calm. \u201cScarlet, Dr. Tucker knows my condition better than anyone. If there was anything to be done, it would have already been done. My body can\u2019t handle all that fuss. Going to the hospital would just be torture.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Hearing that, Scarlet couldn\u2019t hold back anymore. Tears streamed down her face, and she hurriedly covered her eyes with her\u00a0<\/p>\n
hands.\u00a0<\/p>\n
William clicked his tongue and glanced at Emily. \u201cStop making her cry.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Emily quickly comforted her. \u201cOh, my dear. Stop crying. I\u2019m doing alright, aren\u2019t I? You\u2019re my little lucky star. If you spend\u00a0<\/p>\n

more time with me, I might live another three years.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlet felt a pang in her heart. \u201cThen I\u2019ll take the day off today and stay home with you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
2\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou have hands that save lives. There are so many patients waiting at the hospital. You can come back to see me after work,\u201d Emily said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll be back as soon as I finish work. If you feel unwell, you must tell me,\u201d Scarlet replied.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cGo on.\u201d Emily then turned to William. \u201cTake Scarlet to work. It\u2019s freezing outside. Don\u2019t let her get cold.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She even personally saw Scarlet to the door, watching her get into William\u2019s car and standing there until it drove off.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Once the car left the driveway and out of Emily\u2019s sight, there was no reason for Scarlet to pretend anymore. She said, \u201cJust drop me off here.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
William gave her a sideways glance, and a mocking smirk played on his lips. \u201cWhat? You want to sit in Julian\u2019s car?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Julian left just after them, and his car followed close behind.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlet had no energy to argue with him. \u201cMm. His car is better than yours.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
William\u2019s face darkened instantly. He chuckled and said to Lester, \u201cLock the doors. You want to ride in his car? Forget it.\u201d Scarlet thought he was childish and turned her gaze to the window.\u00a0<\/p>\n
