“Yvonne, I don’t want to be just friends with you…”
“Mr. Taylor,” Yvonne interrupted before he could finish. If she let him continue, they wouldn't even be able to remain friends.
“Mr. Taylor, I have something else to attend to, so if you’ll excuse me.”
Thomas knew he couldn't make her stay and could only nod, watching as she left with her driver.
Meanwhile, Bennett had already walked into the room where Emma was resting.
Inside, Emma was leaning against the headboard with a grim expression, not looking sick at all.
Still, the Thompson family’s private physician had come and given her a basic check-up. Naturally, the results showed that nothing was wrong.
After the examination, the doctor left with his medical bag.
Yolanda had just left with the rest of the Walker family, so now the room contained only Frank, Bennett, and Emma.
“You little rascal, look how you’ve upset your mother,” Frank scolded his son while giving him a subtle look.
Bennett walked over to the bed and sat down in a chair. “Mom, where are you feeling unwell?” he asked gently. “Should we go to the hospital for a proper look?”
Emma was still fuming and just let out a cold snort, ignoring him.
“If you don’t want to see me, I’ll leave. I’d hate to actually make you ill, Dad would be heartbroken,” Bennett said, actually making a move to stand up.
“Fine, go! But if you step out that door, that's it—you're dead to me.” Emma snapped.
Of course, Bennett had no intention of actually leaving. He poured a glass of warm water and offered it to Emma appeasingly.
