Chapter 15: Guilt-stricken Little Emma
Chapter 15: Guilt-stricken Little Emma
The two kids were still on it at the Spennor Residence, and Jacob had even created five thousand paid
posters to bury the comments that had praised Sabrina’s acting skill and were asking for the name of
the drama.
All the comments were now unvarying and consistent as below:
#Miss Thomas had employed despicable means to drive the famous psychiatrist from America away
with her pretension as the daughter-in-law of the Moore family#
#Miss Thomas had committed self-harm to frame Dr. Thomas due to hatred of her appearance#
#Dr. Thomas, the famous psychiatrist from XX Hospital in California, America had returned to the
country#
No matter how much the other party had wanted to turn the tables, their comments would be buried by
Jacob in an instant, hence a growing number of fans had gradually changed sides and were supportive
of the mysterious Dr. Thomas.
“That’s brilliant.” Emma clenched her little fists as she exclaimed, and she proceeded to cup Jacob’s
face in her hands in excitement and gave him a big smooch on his chubby cheek.
Jacob pushed her face away from him while wearing a disgusted look, “Your saliva is so dirty.”
“Nonsense, I just saw you tittering. I’m going to plant a smacker again.”
Jacob turned his head abruptly and uttered with a sullen face, “Aren’t you ashamed of yourself, Emma?
I’m a guy and you’re a girl, so it is improper for us to touch each other.”
“Suit yourself then. I’m going to kiss Daddy instead.” Just when she was about to kiss Bryan’s face that
was displayed on the screen while holding the phone in her hands, a few car honking sounds had
sounded from outside the house at that moment.
Emma’s eyes blinked as she looked up at Jacob, “Has Mommy come home?”
“It should be her judging from the sound of the car.”
“Mommy is back.” She hurriedly got up from the floor and ran out of the room at the double after getting
his affirmation.
As soon as Shirley had parked her car, her assistant, Cameron, had come out to greet her while Emma
had also pushed open the door and rushed out from the inside of the house.
“Mommy.”
Shirley closed the car door and walked towards Emma with a smile on her face, and she stooped down
to embrace Emma in her arms when her kid was just about to reach her, “Where is Jacob?”
“Jacob is just behind me. Didn’t you say that you most likely wouldn’t be able to get off work before
midnight, Mommy?” Emma raised her head as she blinked her eyes in an artless manner even though
she was actually in the know about the reason for her early return.
She had to at least act like she had no idea what had happened.
If Mommy had found out that Jacob had been playing with the computer again, she would definitely
confiscate the laptop. How would they protect her then if that was the case?
“That’s right, Shirley. Why have you come back suddenly? I thought that you wouldn’t be back before
midnight.” The nature of Shirley’s occupation was more special as sometimes she had to make 24-
hours house calls and stay with her patients for the whole day.
Shirley stood up and took Emma by her hand as she replied, “Didn’t you look at your phone?”
She had watched that video on her way back as it was currently trending on the internet. Luckily her
face had been thoughtfully pixelated by the person whom had uploaded that video online, hence
everyone was only aware of the fact that Dr. Thomas had returned to the country and had even
become Mr. Moore’s psychiatrist. It was safe to say that her true identity had yet to be revealed at the
moment.
“My phone? Let me have a look.” Cameron quickly took out his phone and clicked on the video that
was on the main page after launching the Weibo app.
As Shirley’s face had been pixelated, Cameron felt rather lost while he was watching the video at first,
but when he had discerned that Shirley was attired in the exact same clothes as the woman in the
video, a vague notion had started to materialize in his mind. After scrolling through the comments
section, he finally grasped the beginning and the end of the events that had transpired.
“That woman is way too arrogant! How could she walk all over you like that by abusing her status as
the daughter of the Thomas family?”
“Who is mistreating Mommy!” Emma yelled in a huff with both her fists clenched tightly while her face
was screwed up with anger.
Cameron immediately shut his mouth and turned around to shoot a glance at Shirley.
The fact that this video had proved her innocence at just the right timing had led Shirley to call into
question the motive of the person behind this. She somehow had a vague feeling that it had something
to do with her genius son!
“Bring me to Jacob now.”
“Jacob, Jacob is inside…” Emma cast a few guilty glances towards the windowsill of the bedroom as
she wondered whether Jacob had managed to clear away the laptop.
“Which room is he in? Bring Mommy there!”
“I’m hungry, Mommy. I want to eat the food that you make. Cameron’s cooking tastes way too… This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
horrible…”
Cameron’s mouth twitched upon hearing her lie as they had actually ordered takeaway for lunch.
It was at this moment that Jacob had strolled out from the house…
