Chapter 359

Author: Deerstream
Emma finished preparing breakfast and arrived at the hospital around 9:20 am.

Since it was a weekday, traffic was bad. She spent the whole ride worrying that Yvonne might be hungry with nothing to eat.

Christian had called her that morning, asking her to take her time to deliver breakfast. Emma had asked, "Mr. Lane, you're going to work, and Ms. York is heading to the lab, so who's staying with Ms. Yvonne?"

Christian had told her, "Her mother will be there."

Emma felt a bit more at ease hearing that. She wanted Yvonne to eat well, so she put extra care into preparing breakfast, which ended up taking longer than she had expected.

After stepping out of the cab, she hurried with the food container as quickly as she could. By the time she reached the ward, it was already 9:30 am.

But the room was empty. Neither Talia nor Yvonne was there.

Emma set the container down and hurried to the nurses' station to ask where Yvonne had gone.

As soon as the nurse heard Yvonne's name, she said,

  • When She Turns Her Back   Chapter 378

    Talia looked at Quentin helplessly. "Quentin, you…"He tried to embrace her, but as he got closer, Talia suddenly thought of him kissing Nancy.A wave of resistance surged inside her. She shoved him away and got off the bed.Standing barefoot on the floor, she looked at him and said, "Forget about last night. I never agreed to the role you've imagined for yourself."After saying that, she put on her shoes and took Willow's hand. "Willow, let's go."Willow wasn't sure what had happened, but she followed Talia's lead.As they were heading out of the ward, Lucas suddenly called out, "Talia, have you misunderstood Quentin? If there's a misunderstanding, you should talk to him. I know his character well. He really only loves you."Talia stopped in her tracks when she heard that. She paused for a moment, then turned back to look at Lucas and said, "Mr. Jensen, thank you for coming today. I'm happy you were here. And, of course, I appreciate Mr. Henderson being here too. However, there

    Quentin sat on the edge of the bed. His body stiffened as he listened to Talia's words.No matter how dense he might be, he knew exactly what Talia m,eant. She was clearly trying to kick him out.But Quentin wasn't going anywhere. Frowning, he said, "I'm not busy. I'm staying here with you. You're sick, and I can't leave you alone."As Talia looked at Quentin, her expression was completely flat. Her tone was soft as she replied, "You should go. It's easier having Willow here since we're both women."Quentin's brows furrowed even deeper. "But you promised me last night that—"He wanted to say that she had agreed to let him be her lover.But before he could finish speaking, Talia interrupted him, saying, "I was running a fever last night and wasn't thinking clearly. Please don't take anything that happened to heart, Mr. Henderson."Quentin knew full well she was trying to get him to leave, but he wasn't about to back down. "I'm not leaving. If you want Ms. Green to stay, let her.

    Willow had said that she would be there in about an hour, so Talia decided to pass the time with a game.At the mention of it, Lucas' eyes lit up, and he became interested. "Sure. I'm unbeatable when it comes to Five-in-a-Row. Don't cry if you lose, Talia."Talia smiled faintly. "I won't."She was actually quite good at Five-in-a-Row, but it had been many years since she last played this game.With Talia bringing up a game, Quentin no longer paid attention to Lucas.Soon enough, Lucas had the game board set up. Talia took the white pieces, and Lucas took the black ones.They played three rounds, and Talia lost every time. Even though she lost, it wasn't an easy win for Lucas.When the fourth round started, Quentin quietly got up from the chair beside the bed and moved to sit next to Talia.Although Five-in-a-Row was just a simple game, it still required some thinking, and it wasn't as easy as it seemed.At first, Talia and Lucas were evenly matched. But as the game progressed,

    In the ward, Talia leaned back against the headboard.Lucas had laid out the things he brought on the edge of the bed. After showing them all, he eagerly looked at Talia, waiting for her decision.Seeing his excited expression, Talia didn't have the heart to dampen his spirits. After some serious thought, she pointed to the cake and said, "I'll have the cake."Lucas quickly picked up the cake and handed it to her."Talia, since you love cake so much, you must be a real sweetheart yourself," he teased, his smile gentle.Quentin, who was sitting beside Talia, slowly peeled an orange, as if afraid of tearing the skin.Although his focus was on the fruit, his eyes kept drifting toward Talia.Since last night, he had sensed something amiss with her. However, she had always been cold toward him, so he couldn't quite figure out what was wrong.After Lucas arrived, Talia was smiling, yet Quentin couldn't shake the feeling that something was off.But then again, Talia wasn't very famil

    Emma caught on to Christian's unspoken meaning and gently persuaded him, "Mr. Lane, if you really care about Mrs. Lane, you should call her yourself."Christian turned his face away. His voice dropped to a somber tone as he replied, "I don't care about her, but she's still Yvonne's mother. I wouldn't want anything to happen to her."Emma sighed deeply. "Mr. Lane, Mrs. Lane is a good person. You shouldn't let her slip away. As you said, she's Ms. Yvonne's mother. Only a mother can truly care for her child. Please don't regret it, or so will Ms. Yvonne."Christian remained silent for a while. He thought about how they had already signed the divorce papers and were only about 20 days away from receiving their official divorce certificate. Finally, he spoke up. "There are no feelings between us."Emma quickly responded, "But you still have Ms. Yvonne."Christian went quiet again. After a moment, he took the food container from Emma's hands and said, "I'll feed Yvonne."When he entere

    After saying that, Talia turned her back to Quentin.He froze for a moment, suddenly at a loss for what to do.Everything had been fine just moments ago.A restless feeling gnawed at him. As he sat by the bed, he asked, "Is something wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"Talia didn't turn around, but she answered, "No, I'm just tired."Her tone was as cold as it had been when they first met.Quentin didn't say anything more, but his eyes stayed fixed on her. He stubbornly stared at the back of her head, as if he were trying to see through her, but he couldn't figure her out.He wondered if she was upset over Christian again.Just as that thought crossed his mind, Talia suddenly turned back around. The light in the room cast a dim glow, making her expression faint and shadowed.She looked at Quentin for a moment before saying, "You smell like perfume."There was no scent at all, but she brought it up on purpose, hoping that he would admit to being with Nancy.Quentin, caught off gu
