Forced Marriage: Escaping Her Monster

Chapter 366 - Lurking Danger

"What are you going here?" Bobby walked up to Emma and he almost held her throat.

As much as Bobby wanted to question Scarlett, he was more inclined to know the purpose Emma was there in the hospital his wife visits.

He didn't think it was a coincidence.

Emma took a step back and her eyes widened and her hands trembled with fear. She saw the murderous intent on Bobby's face and looked around.

She's heard that Gerard is dead; that he was killed by that lumberjack's men last night. But she still needed medical care and that is why she swiftly changed her hospital and ended up with this hospital.

She has to keep herself alive.

Gerard's mother was already angry as she believes her son's lies and her father has already washed his hands off her. She has no support and she was scared by the amount she bled.

Liters of blood were lost and she needed intense medical care.

Gerard's death is her only comfort for now.

He did a cruel thing to her and pretended that her child is not his. He even feigned the reports to make it seem like she cheated on him.

How dare he!

And as always that stupid lumberjack stood by her side and helped eliminate the one who hurt her.

Good riddance, Gerard... You deserve everything that happened to you!

But Bobby... He cannot be messed around with.

This fool loved his mother too much and he would think that she was wrong to kill that chatterbox.

But was I?

Wouldn't I have faced more trouble if that woman spread the rumor? Who would have gotten hurt then?

Who will understand my side? Why is everyone selfish?

Emma looked around to see the hallway of the hospital having enough people for her to have a chance. She saw hospital security turning the corner and her heart relaxed.

"Why should I tell you, murderer?" Emma raised her voice hoping that the security heard her and just like she wished for the security turned to look in her direction.

"Who is the murderer, bitch?" Bobby lunged at her and grabbed her throat.

He was pissed.?The one who murdered his mother in cold blood is calling him a murderer!

Scarlett noticed the security turning towards them. There was also some staff rolling a bed through the hallway and she grabbed Bobby's hand and led him away. This is a hospital and this is not the place to take care of their personal problems.

"Let go!" Bobby was not very impressed by his wife pulling him aside. He turned and checked to see that Emma has disappeared.

"Now tell me why you are here?" Bobby asked Scarlett.

Scarlett gulped. She was here to get the result of the blood tests she gave previously. She knew her health is at stake here and she needs to take care of herself for the sake of the baby in her belly and her baby at home.

Also for her husband. He's lost one too many members of his family already and the least she could do is to take care of herself so that he won't face another loss.

But she didn't think she'd be caught by him.

"Are you hurt, Kitty? You've been acting weird these days...and now you're in a hospital..." He held her shoulder and his voice trembled. "Are you sick? Are you-"

"No, Bobby!" Scarlett held his cheeks. Her heart melted seeing the eyes of her husband rimmed with tears.

"I'm here to get test results..." She almost spilled the beans.

But she remembered him saying that he will book an appointment for an abortion and composed herself. They are already at a hospital and she didn't want to take a chance.

She is sure of giving birth to the miracle growing in her womb. She would fight her husband to death to have her way. But if he gets emotional and begs her, she would have no strength to go against him. So hiding is the only option for her now.

"For Jerlina," she clasped her skirt tightly as she lied. "She still hasn't informed Jeremy of her pregnancy. But she gave a preliminary blood test and she asked me to get the results."

Bobby stared at her for a while.

"You're not lying are you, Kitty?" His rigid expressions got relaxed as if he accepted her explanation.

"Because if you are sick or something..."

"No! I am here to get Jerlina's pregnancy reports!" Scarlett persisted.

"If that was the case, you should've asked me to drive here. What was the need to sneak out like this? You two are weird..." Bobby patted her head seeing her bowing her head.

He still wasn't convinced entirely but he opted to believe his wife.

"Stay here..." Scarlett smiled hiding her guilt. "I'll go get the report and return."

Emma hid behind the doctor walking through the hallways and passed Bobby. Her hands were fisted and her eyes darkened with malicious intent.

Jerlina is pregnant? With that lumberjack's baby? That cannot happen to me... That cannot be allowed...

So the lumberjack killed Gerard for her? That c*nt used that lumberjack to have Gerard out of her way using her pregnancy? She didn't lie about being intimate with him?

Eeww!

If she is richer than him, what did she gain by sleeping with that illiterate? Was she thst depraved? Or did he force her?

Wait... Didn't Scarlett say that he does not know about her pregnancy?

Hehehe... Does that mean what I think it means..?

Did she cheat with Gerard? That child must be Gerard's! So giving me the title of a cheater must be their plan all along.

I will out her! And I will end him along with her!

Billionaire..? She won't live to enjoy her billions! I know what to do!

Emma with a sinister grin left the hospital.

Jerlina sent off Jeremy to the office. She didn't feel like going to work that day.

He pulled the jeep out of the garage and with the window down, he still wasn't willing to step on the pedal.

"I won't be alone. I'll visit my company and maybe I'll visit mom afterward," she held his hand. "I'll ask Gordon to drive me." She assured him. "Or would you prefer it if I stay home for the day?" She asked.

He seemed worried for her and she was worried for him too. Gordon told her that the gunmen who attacked them were his enemies. She didn't try to find out how he made those enemies but she worried if more of them might be lurking somewhere.

But Gordon assured her that Jeremy is safe and she is too. And she trusted Gordon with this. But she still wondered if it would be better for her to lay low until everything is settled.

"Stay home today, will you?" Jeremy asked her. And she agreed with no hesitation.

"You be careful too," she asked him.

With a gentle kiss and relief apparent on his face, Jeremy left their home. Jerlina rubbed her heart that was feeling a bit uneasy.

Be safe, love....
