Chapter 265 Discharged and Shopping
"Miss Brown, here are your mom's discharge papers. Congrats!" The head nurse handed the documents to Emily.
Finally, the day had arrived. Emily was a whirlwind of emotions. She grinned, took the papers with both hands,
and couldn't hide her excitement. From now on, she could be with her mom forever. "Thanks so much for taking
care of her."
Emily turned to leave. As she walked away, the head nurse suddenly remembered the man who had visited
Isabella, claiming to be her ex-husband.
A nearby colleague chimed in, "Can you believe Miss Brown had the guts to take her own dad to court?"
"Who would've thought? | heard she and her mom took down the entire Brown family in one swoop."
"So, no more Brown family in Emerald City, huh? Maybe a new Taylor family will rise?" "Wouldn't be surprised.
Who knew sweet, kind Miss Brown could be so fierce?"
The head nurse frowned and turned around. "Don't you all have work to do? Why are you gossiping about a
patient's privacy?"
The nurses quickly buried their heads in their work.
Emily was a regular at the hospital, so she couldn't avoid hearing the gossip. But she always brushed them off
and didn't let them get to her.
Back in the ward, Isabella was already packed. She wore a beige wool coat, her hair neatly tied up, and was
browsing international news on her tablet.
Seeing this, Emily was momentarily stunned.
It all felt like a dream. Her mom had really woken up and was finally leaving the hospital.
"Mom, the discharge papers are ready. Let's go," Emily said.
Isabella nodded and smiled. "No rush. Let's wait a bit. | want to go shopping later. It's been ages since | bought
new clothes, and | don't want to wear the old ones anymore." Emily wrinkled her nose and flattered her, "Mom,
you look good in anything."
Isabella looked at Emily and continued to smile. "My daughter sure knows how to talk." Though she said this,
Isabella wanted to go, and Emily would accompany her all the way.
But Emily didn't know what they were waiting for.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEmily then realized that Isabella wanted to reconcile them when Michael appeared. It was simply wishful
thinking.
Emily always remembered one important truth: a forced relationship never works. If she and Michael reconciled
under pressure, it would be the most painful thing for her. Besides, how could the cracks between them be so
easily mended?
But today was Isabella's discharge day, so Emily didn't argue much and let Isabella arrange things. Isabella was
very tactful and she played it cool by saying. "Michael, | know you're busy. | didn't call you here for anything else.
Just help Emily andtake these things to Emerald Lake Manor. Emily and | will go shopping and look for a
suitable house, then cto you for the things."
Her words made it seem like she didn't want to trouble Michael.
But anyone smart could tell the unspoken message that if Michael cared about Isabella and Emily, he would take
care of everything.
Sure enough, Michael quickly sorted everything out. "Isabella, let Andrew handle this. Finding a house isn't hard.
How about somewhere near Emerald Lake Manor? It'd be convenient for us to visit you. And shopping can be
tiring. You and Emily always take cabs around Emerald City, which isn't ideal. I'll drive you today. It's your first
day out of the hospital, and I'll be your chauffeur. How does that sound?"
Isabella was thrilled with Michael's arrangements.

Only Emily felt awkward and unsure of what to do. She waited for Isabella to go to the bathroom and then pulled
Michael out of the ward.
"What are you doing?" Emily asked.
"What do you mean?" Michael replied.
"Why say that to my mom? What are you doing?" Emily pressed.
"Emily, are you trying to speak in riddles again? | don't have tfor this!" Michael shot back.
Emily was speechless. "I..."
She knew she couldn't outtalk Michael. He always had his own plans, and no one could ever guess what he was
thinking.
But they were about to get divorced. This was no small matter.
Especially for Emily, who was looking forward to a fresh start. The past had been too painful. She didn't want to
relive it or make the smistakes.
She was really scared, so she urgently said to Michael, "Michael, you can treathowever you want, but don't
pretend to care about my mom. We're about to get divorced. There's no point in acting in front of her. I'll find
tto explain everything to her. If you have work to do, you should go."
The atmosphere grew tense, and Michael's smile faded.
He looked at Emily's complex expression, feeling an indescribable sadness.
It was all his fault.

He had hurt her so deeply that trying to make amends now seemed almost impossible.

Isabella responded with a smile, "Let's go to Fashion Treasury. | used to shop there a lot. | wonder how it's
changed."
Michael agreed readily. "Fashion Treasury it is. Buy whatever you want. I'll pay."
Isabella smiled, "Michael, thank you for your treat."
Michael said, "Isabella, you're too kind. It's my duty!"
Seeing Michael and Isabella getting along so well, Emily felt invisible.
She had never seen Michael so eager before. This was the first time.
But she wasn't angry. It was just that Michael was driving too fast, making her feel
nauseous.
