Chapter 226 - True Care

Gordon still doesn\'t know why the Grandsire asked Rose to be held captive. He reminded him often, thinking that the grandsire might have forgotten about her but he insisted that she stays there and asked him to provide her with whatever she needs as long as she stays there; except that she cannot have contact with anyone outside.

But if she is asking, what does she know?

Gordon looked at Mikhail.

It seems like she is very close with the Volkonkys.

That can\'t be helped. After all, he\'s to be owed for her being alive today after what that f*cking Matilda pulled!

But if I mention her, the grandsire might change his mind about Lady Rose! There is hope!

"I currently don\'t have her number on me, but I\'ll see what I can do about it," Gordon neatly slipped from that landmine.

"Aww! That\'s bad. I just wanted to hear her voice after what I went through yesterday," Jerlina pouted. "I wish I can meet her somewhere."

"I\'ll..." Gordon gulped.

"Where are you holding her?" Mikhail couldn\'t hold back and took a step forward, but Alexander stopped him using his cane.

"Hmm," he glared at Mikhail. "Don\'t get involved in their family business, boy. It\'s-"

"She\'s my girlfriend! Of course, I can involve myself!" Mikhail talked back.

Jerlina bowed her head. It seems like this is the only thing they don\'t agree on and fight about.

"Get inside, Mikhail!" Alexander took a look at Gordon observing them and said in an authoritative tone.

Mikhail huffed and puffed, glaring at his grandfather for some time, but then he fisted his hands and turned.

"I hate you, grandpa! I hate you!" He walked back inside stomping his feet like an angry elementary schoolboy.

"Tell him he won\'t get a penny from me if he wants to sell his great-granddaughter to my family," Alexander said with a serious expression to Gordon and he furrowed his brows as he didn\'t understand what he meant.

"I don\'t understand what you mean, Mr. Volkonsky," he said politely.

"He\'ll know what I mean. Just repeat it word by word," Alexander said and turned and showed his back.

"Okay," Gordon agreed. And he looked at Jerlina.

"I\'ll pick you up next weekend Ms. Hopkins. I\'ll arrange for your stay and everything. Just bringing yourself would be enough," he said and Jerlina nodded with a smile.

She still didn\'t know how she is going to convince the big puppy who likes lullabies, to stay without her for a day.

Joel\'s going to cause a commotion!

Scarlett looked at Emma standing beside Cia\'s crib and curled her lips. The hospital doesn\'t permit anyone else to stay here and she has to beg them to allow her to place a crib here for her daughter and stay here.

And she knew Jeremy\'s mom, who knows someone from the board of the hospital, talked for her to get her permission.

Daisy asked her to stay home, but she wanted to be here, and in just a day, she was so tired she wanted to faint. Plus every time she closed her eyes all she saw was thick, warm blood splattering everywhere and it held her from sleeping.

And the morphine drip they are giving Bobby...

All her past days of drug abuse came to her mind, but she didn\'t feel guilty about it. She remembered the "high" she used to get when using those drugs.

Am I missing it?

Her throat went dry and her fingers started shaking.

She was exasperated and a bit emotional when she was talking with Charlie. And although she doesn\'t like Emma, her presence here is needed for now.

"Watch her... I\'ll have to use the bathroom..." Scarlett told Emma.

"Sure," Emma said with a smile. "It must be hard for you. I can barely handle Gerard but you have to take care of Bobby and the baby. I really felt like dying..." Emma went on with her usual pity party about her and Scarlett slipped to the in-suite bathroom.

The running water swirled into the drain and Scarlett looked at her face on the mirror. For a second, she saw a flash of her face covered in blood in the reflection and she wiped her face and washed her hands with soap again and again.

I don\'t want to feel this way... Those men are scum and I don\'t have to feel this way for them...I need something to get over this pain...

What can I do?

Will anyone realize it if I hook myself with the morphine?

Even a small amount will make me feel better.

Her thoughts went dark.

With drops of water dripping through her face, she stared at the mirror for some time.

Her eyes started to sting and her eyes became red as tears started dripping from her eyes.

What am I even doing?

I have left my baby with an unreliable person and I am thinking about stealing my husband\'s drug!

Lowlife!

She gave herself a slap.

Pull yourself together, Scar! You have a baby to look after!

She opened the door slowly in deep thoughts and she noticed Emma\'s hands near Cia\'s thighs.

What is she doing?

As Scarlett observed, Emma pinched the baby hard. The baby who was sleeping peacefully woke up with a shrill cry.

"What!" Scarlett\'s first instinct was to carry her baby and looking at Emma she wanted to kill her.

But her priority was to console the baby and she sang softly to Cia and patted her back softly.

"Aww, poor thing..." Emma said with her fake concerned voice. "She must be so traumatized because of yesterday\'s incident still," she tried to touch Cia\'s head, but Scarlett pulled the baby away from Emma\'s hand.

"....I can only imagine how much more Jerlina would be traumatized!"

Jerlina..?

She pinches my baby and brings up Jerlina now?

Why?

Scarlett started to think.

Oh...?

That should be it!

She must have heard what I talked to Charlie!

This f*cking b*tch!

Wait... for her to be here and still trying to bring division... And she isn\'t even trying to ask about Jerry?

What more is she hiding?

"Jerlina?" Scarlett scoffed. "That b*tch can die for all I care! She left my baby to die..." Scarlett added and watched Emma\'s face brightening up.

That\'s right... Eat up my acting, b*tch!

I almost lost myself but you reminded me what is the most important thing.

I know what I need to do now!
