Chapter 160
"Are you Miss Cornell?" Katherine had just arrived at the hospital entrance when she saw Emma
waiting there while looking at her with a baffled face.
Katherine looked at Emma suspiciously but could not sense any malice in her. Hence, after a moment
of silence, Katherine asked, "Are you looking for me? If you want to know about Mr. Rosenburg's
condition, I suggest you ask the doctor in charge directly, and they will give you a satisfactory answer."
"No, I'm not looking for them. I'm looking for you." Emma shook her head while her gaze never left
Katherine's face.
Katherine felt Emma was strange; there was a hint of nostalgia behind Emma's sad eyes, and it gave
Katherine a feeling that she had reminded Emma of someone else.
"Do you need me for something?" Katherine glanced at the time; it was late, and she would get home
late because of traffic jams if she did not leave now.
"Can we talk in the car?" Emma raised her hand and rubbed her dry eyes.
Katherine hesitated upon hearing that, but in the end, she nodded and followed Emma to the car
parked at the roadside.
Once they were in the car, Emma then spoke with a sentimental tone, "All this time, I thought I would
never see you again."
"You have seen me before?" Katherine was surprised at Emma's words, but she was sure she had
never seen Emma before after she tried to recall carefully.
Emma pursed her lips and smiled while shaking her head without saying anything.
Katherine was confused by Emma's reaction.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Is your mother okay? Can you bring me to see her?" Emma asked in a hoarse voice after being silent
for a long time.
"Mrs. Rosenburg, my mother has passed away." With that, Katherine was confident that she did not
know Emma. Otherwise, Emma would have known about Elsie's death.
Emma was stunned upon hearing that, and she muttered, "She's gone? I see… Then, do you have any
relatives at home? Can you bring me to them?"
Katherine felt Emma was acting strange. After staring at Emma and being silent for a while, she
nodded.
Katherine told the driver the address, and after that, Emma went silent for the whole car ride. The car
drove to Soulin International and was stopped at the entrance.
So, Katherine rolled down the car window and spoke to the security guard before he opened the door
and let them in.
After Emma got out of the car, she surveyed the neighborhood for a moment before following Katherine
quietly.
"Grandma, I'm back," Katherine shouted once she opened the door and entered the house.
"Welcome back." Jennifer did not raise her head as she was intently watching the television.
Aside from Jennifer, there was no one else at home. Katherine did not know where Joaquin went, and
Noah was not in the living room either.
Katherine changed her shoes and gave Emma a new pair of shoes. Emma then changed her shoes as
well before following Katherine into the house.
When Emma saw Jennifer, there was some excitement flashed through Emma's eyes. However, she
tried her best to keep her emotions in check.
"Grandma, we have a guest today." Seeing that Jennifer's eyes were glued to the television, Katherine
had decided to tell her.
Hearing that, Jennifer turned her head and glanced at the guest as she responded indifferently,
"Whatever—"
Halfway through the words, she froze up as she stared at Emma. After a while, the indifferent look was
then gone from her face as she sat straight while looking coldly at Emma. Then, Jennifer questioned
coldly, "Why are you here? What do you want?"
"Jennifer, I—" Emma could not help but speak up with teary eyes.
"Stop being buddy-buddy with me. I don't know you, and I don't want to have anything to do with you.
You are not welcome here. So, please get out of here immediately," Jennifer interrupted Emma
impatiently as she wanted to drive the unwelcome guest away.
"Jennifer…" Emma looked at Jennifer with red eyes with no intention to leave.
Katherine felt they had some histories. She then remembered Jennifer's mysterious identity. Joaquin
had refused to tell her about Jennifer, and her intelligence network could not find any information on
Jennifer's identity either. So, this could only mean that Jennifer's identity was not merely as simple as a
Mrs. Olsen.
So, Katherine quietly took a few steps back and returned to her room to give the two old ladies some
space.
Emma took a step forward. "Jennifer, I've been looking for you all these years."
"Why would you look for us? You were the one who disagreed with our children's marriage. So, why
bother to come to see me? Our families have nothing to do with each other in the past, and that won't
change now or in the future," Jennifer said coldly with a stern expression.
"It's been years, and our children are all grown up now. Jennifer, can't you forgive me?"
"I don't know what you are talking about." Jennifer pulled her face. "We made it clear back then that our
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfamilies won't have any ties from that day on. We have been away from Kyoland for over twenty years
and have never been in contact since then. And now, you're coming here and asking me to forgive
you? Do you think everything will be resolved just because it's been years?"
"That child… She's the daughter of Elsie and Joshua, right? She—" Emma spoke anxiously. She wiped
her eyes as she deliberately ignored Jennifer's words.
"She has nothing to do with the Rosenburg Family, and she is the daughter of my child with another
man. So, stop being buddy-buddy with me. What's the matter? Does Alex not leave you a descendant
after Joshua is gone? I remember you still have another son, Jacob is it? Does he not give you a
grandchild either?" Jennifer interrupted Emma's words coldly with eyes full of sarcasm.
Those words had hit a sore spot in Emma's heart.
Emma did give birth to three sons, but none of them had left her a single offspring.
Alex had been in a coma for twenty years.
Ever since Joshua passed away, Jacob had been antagonizing Emma. So, he never got married, let
alone had a child.
As for Joshua, after Emma forcibly separated him from Elsie, he had been depressed and ended up
with a major depressive disorder, which led him to commit suicide shortly afterward.
Jennifer was right. None of Emma's sons had given her any grandchildren.
If this continued, the line of the Rosenburg Family would be severed.
"Jennifer, why are you doing this? When Elsie and Joshua separated back then, she should be
pregnant with Joshua's child already, right? I know Elsie loves him very much, so there's no way she
would marry another man and have a child together. So—" Emma choked up and spoke after wiping
her tears away.
"So what? What's so great about Joshua? Why should Elsie blindly stay single for him? Do the math
yourself; we left Kyoland right after you broke them up in 1991, and Kathy was born in 1994. So, she
can't be a Rosenburg's descendant no matter what."
