Second Chances

Emma was dressed rather plainly at the moment, but she was no wearing the hospital gown. 

Liam worried she would be uncomfortable in a hospital gown, so he specifically had the nurse give her a set of comfortable silk pajamas. 

Sitting on the bed, she appeared to be a refined young girl without exuding the aura that kept people at a distance. 

However, she had just been injured, so her face was pale, and her head was wrapped in bandages. She looked like a sickly beauty. 

Lawson looked at Emma and muttered to himself, “This is your girlfriend? Are you sure it’s not your niece or cousin or something” 

He did not dare to say the second half of the sentence out loud for fear that Liam might kill him. Fortunately, he held it back. 

Liam directed his cold gaze at him and asked, “Do you see any other woman in this room?” 

Lawson rubbed his nose and said naively, “I’m not a woman.” 

Liam ridiculed, “Even if you were a woman, I wouldn’t be interested in you.” 

“What the hell?” said Lawson. 

He thought, ‘Is it necessary to roast me like this when we meet? 

“PL” At this moment, the girl on the bed couldn’t help but giggle. “Honey, who is he?” Emma asked as she looked at Lawson. 

She could guess that Liam was familiar with the man in front of her. 

Otherwise, he wouldn’t make such a joke. 

Liam’s tone completely changed when he spoke to Emma. “Don’t mind him. Are your wounds still hurting?” 

Emma replied, “My injuries are not serious. I’m just worried about Lane.” 

Emma had calmed down emotionally and no longer showed her anxiety and sadness on her face. 

But she was very worried about Lane. 

Liam knew that Emma wouldn’t be able to set her mind at rest if he didn’t tell her about Lane’s condition. 

Hence, the first thing he did was tell her about it.. 

Liam said. “Lane is out of the wood now. With proper care, she’ll be fine. Don’t worry! 

Liam did not say anything else, nor did he introduce Lawson. 

Feeling a bit neglected, Lawson stepped forward and introduced himself, “Nice to meet you, Miss. I’m Lawson, the doctor who performed your friend’s surgery. She’s fine now, but the rehabilitation process might be tough.” 

Emma found his name familjar. 

“Are you Lawson Kaur, the internationally renowned neurosurgoon?” Emma asked. 

Lawson scratched his head and said, “Haha, the person you’re talking about has the same name as me. That should be me!”

Emma knew this perion. 

The was a big shot, but he sally kept a low profile and never pancipated in any awards or evaluations to avoid being dutuched and called to perform simgeries exerywhere, which would affect his research. 

Howers, everyone in the field knew his name because he was the only person in the world who had refused the Grail Hero 

Endin 

Emusa was quite surprised, 

id 

She didn’t expect Liam na koos many extraordinary people were readily available at his call. This made her want to reases how powerful the man’s connections were 

However, I heard that your friend is also attending the military school? Lawson asked tentatively. 

Emma noddest 

Lawson continued. “There are some things I need to tell you honestly. Lane is severely injured. It’s a miracle that she has survived. It she trcovers well, she can return to normal life. However, if the engages in strenuous physical activities, like sports competitions or military combat, her stamina and strength will be significantly reduced by at least half, and it is bad fon ber health. So your friend may not be able to pursue a physically demanding career in the future.” 

Emma was mentally prepared for it. 

It Lane hadict risked her life to save Emma in the urgent situation, she wouldn’t have been hurt and even suffered such severe injuries 

ma pursed her pale lips slightly and nodded her head without saying anything 

However, under the quilt, her fingers gripped the bed sheet tightly, leaving five shallow, unnoticed creases. 

Liam saw the change in Emma’s expression and said to Lawson, “Alright, she’s tired. Go out now.” 

Liam’s tone was very calm. As a childhood friend who had known Liam for more than 20 years, Lawson wisely chose not to push further and prepared to leave. 

“Alright, young lady, rest well. Oh, by the way, are you really Grail” Before leaving. Lawson finally voiced his curiosity. 

He had risked getting his hand caught in the door to come in, just to see what the legendary Grail looked like 

ral big names in the academic world had guessed privately 

Some said Grail must be a reclusive, kind, and gentle old Lady in her seventies or eighties. 

Others speculated she was like a shrunken dwarf who had been unjected with some mysterious substance. 

There were all sorts of guesses, but no one had guessed that the real Grail was a girl with a celebrity face, looking somewha proud lancholic. She was so beautiful that people couldn’t take their eyes off her. 

After Lawson left, only Emma and Liam were left in the room 

Liam pulled a chair over and sat by her bed. 

man crossed his fingers and spoke softly. “I’ve found the person who caused your car accident. His name is Owen, the guy you ran into at the bar text to the mall that day” 

“So i was them” Emma’s face wasten 

do you want to handle this 

GG. 

Emma’s breathing deepened, and her beautiful and sharp eyes turned cold. 

“They harmed Lane. I want them to pay for it with their blood,” said Emma. 

To Lane, her physical condition was like the wings of a bird. 

Without a strong body, her dreams were shattered. 

Emma didn’t expect that even though she had helped Lane escape the tragic fate of dying from depression in her past life, Lane still faced this misfortune. Maybe everything was fated. She changed Lane’s life, and Lane repaid her by saving her life. 

As for those who harmed Lane, Emma would make sure they pay the price. 

Even if they didn’t die, she would cripple them for life! 

Owen had gone missing. 

Gina went to bed early that night and didn’t pay much attention to Owen’s situation. 

When she woke up the next morning, she found that her son still hadn’t returned home. 

It wasn’t unusual for Owen to be out partying and not come home for the night. 

But this time, his phone remained unreachable even by noon. 

Gina started to worry. After all, it was a sensitive period. If Owen caused trouble again and gave Silas and Alyssa leverage, it would be problematic. 

Just as Gina was about to call a few of Owen’s close friends, she received a call from Owen himself!
