Chapter 47 She Really Went All Out
She had truly outdone herself this time.
In the living room.
Jade’s stinging words were still echoing in the silence.
Amara helped Emily onto the sofa, whose face was as dark as a thunderstorm.

“I only let her stay in this family because I thought she’d be easy to control. Who knew that after three years, she’d learn nothing but how to use the Walter name to act like a spoiled brat!”
Amara wanted Jade and Hudson’s relationship to fail more than anyone else.
She had spent all last night thinking of ways to stop the doctor from seeing Jade.
Unexpectedly, Jade had come up with a kamikaze move that solved the problem for her.
Not only did it save Amara the effort, but it gave her a chance to look like the good girl.
“Emily-”
Amara cleared her throat, ready to play her part, but Emily was already turning her fury toward Hudson.
“Hudson, look at what she’s become! She’s your wife. If you don’t rein her in now, she’ll be walking all over you by tomorrow!”
Hudson stood up, adjusting his suit jacket.
“Mom, this is a private matter between us. Stay out of it. Also, if she doesn’t want the treatment, she won’t have more doctors here.”
Emily’s face turned a sickly shade of green from pure rage.
“And who am I doing all this for? I’m trying to secure the Walter legacy, and somehow I’m the villain?”
Hudson didn’t offer a rebuttal. He simply turned and strode out the door.
Emily watched his retreating back, her lips trembling with indignation.
“This… this is madness…”
Amara quickly poured a glass of ice water and pressed it into her hand.
“Emily, drink some water. Try to calm down.”
Emily took a sip, but the lines of fury on her face didn’t soften.
Amara leaned in, wrapping an arm around Emily’s.

“Emily, I’ve been feeling quite dizzy lately, and my sleep has been terrible. Since the doctor is already here, why don’t you have him
take a look at me instead?”

It was the perfect out. Emily’s expression finally eased, and she looked toward the doctor.
“Fine. Give her a checkup.”
The doctor nodded respectfully.
“Of course.”
Once Amara was settled, Emily went to the kitchen to vent to Rosa.
Amara sat on the sofa, letting the doctor take her pulse while she watched Emily and Rosa in the kitchen.

Even though she’d just saved Emily’s ego, the woman still seemed cold toward her, showing zero genuine concern for her health.
It wasn’t like this years ago. What had changed?
On the highway, the Maybach glided smoothly through traffic.
In the quiet cabin, Hudson tapped his fingers rhythmically against his knee, replaying the morning’s drama.
Jade had refused a doctor when she nearly fainted a few days ago.
And today, she’d been so repulsed by the doctor that she’d used him as a human shield…
But the medical report he’d seen last night stated clearly that Jade was perfectly healthy, just slightly vitamin deficient.
Hudson’s eyes darkened as he looked at Kevin in the driver’s seat.
“The test results you gave me yesterday-was that everything?”
Kevin replied, “Yes, Mr. Walter.”
Hudson pressed, “Did you personally review those files?”
“No, sir.”
Kevin realized something was up and quickly asked.
“Mr. Walter, is there an issue with the report?”
A flicker of suspicion crossed Hudson’s gaze.
“Nothing. Keep a close watch. If my wife goes to the hospital again, I want to know immediately.”
“Understood, sir.”
Night fell, and the penthouse of the Apex Hotel was buzzing with elite guests.
Crystal chandeliers reflected off the marble floors, bathing the room in a vibrant, expensive glow.
Jade pulled her invitation from her bag, scanning the room for any of the “acquaintance” Anthony had mentioned.
