A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 357

Ashton, feeling a little embarrassed, asked, "Mrs. Lycan, it's already such an honor for you to visit us, and yet you've brought such expensive gifts? We really can't accept this."

Emily smiled softly, "These are just small gifts, and you deserve them. If you like them, I'll be happy."

Emily meant it—Carla had done so much for the Lycan family.

"Then... then quickly, quickly, let's prepare some snacks for Madam. I'm sure you must be hungry after coming all the way here," Ashton urged, and Maisie hurried off to prepare.

Emily quickly waved her hand. "No need. I'll just stay for a bit and then leave."

Her words hinted that she wouldn't stay long, so the Shepherd family stopped insisting. They understood that perhaps Emily wasn't used to their home-cooked meals, and pressing her would do no good.

At that point, Skyler had already made sure Carla was comfortable, so Emily walked into Carla's room.

Although Carla appeared a little pale, her spirits were still high. Seeing Emily, Carla tried to get up to greet her, but Emily gently stopped her.

Emily asked with concern about Carla's health and reassured her to rest and recover, stating that once she was better, she was welcome to return to work at any time. She also made it clear that Carla's salary would continue to be paid during her illness.

Carla was eternally grateful for this.

After that, Emily brought up a topic. "Carla, I wanted to ask you something. Do you remember the key to Nic's room?"
