When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel Chapter 1187

Emma, who had been observing the two of us, noticed Lydia was about to lose her cool. Thus, she interrupted us in a hurry, “Ms. Alder, you’re intimidating a pregnant woman. Please calm down and talk about it in a rational manner.”

Lydia tossed an annoyed glance at Emma before returning to her usual self.

I had gone through the comments of the news. Since Jackson wasn’t a public figure, only those from the industry were taken aback by the news. A lot of the netizens, including Jackson’s patient, said they were utterly disgusted. As a result, others had stopped consulting the man for his advice.

Perhaps God thought it was about time to put me through another trial—all the irritating things He had planned out for me were scheduled to occur at the same time. After I returned Lydia her phone, I got in touch with Emery as she watched me with the eyes of a hawk.

Emery picked up the phone almost immediately. “Hello?”

“Jackson’s news has made it to the headline.” I had faith in Emery and thought she would never play pretend in front of me. Although she hadn’t given her consent to remove the news, I was certain she wouldn’t defy my opinions since I had made myself clear.

Indeed, the woman on the line was equally surprised. “What? How’s that possible? I swear I delivered the instructions to omit the news! They would never defy my instructions. I’ll deal with it at once, but I need some time to figure out the things going on behind the scenes.”

“Alright, sorry to trouble you.”

“You need to stop being so courteous, Scarlett. I know you called to reprimand me. I’ll talk to you after I settle this.”

Immediately after she finished her sentence, Emery hung up the call.

I then showed Lydia my phone and said, “See?”

At my action, Lydia immediately knew something must have gone wrong in between the processes. She muttered with an embarrassed look, “I’m so sorry, but I can’t keep myself calm because of Jackson’s current condition.”

“It’s fine. How’s he doing?” I asked nonchalantly; I had no intention to blame her for being overly worked-up either.

Emery had pulled her connections to get the person behind the published news to remove it. It wouldn’t be much of an issue, but it would take some time to get rid of it.

Once I put my phone aside, John, who had returned some time ago, showed up behind Lydia and announced in a petulant manner, “Dr. Alder, thank you so much for your time, but you’re dismissed.”

As compared to the times he tried to chase those who would harm me away, John had been pretty mindful of his choice of words.

His sharp tone told Lydia it was about time for her to leave. After she bade me farewell, she walked in the direction of the entrance and departed.

John approached me and remarked sarcastically, “Go tell that psychopath to stay away from Summer because I will never allow him to bring her away when something’s wrong with his brain! Consider this a warning. He should stop pushing his luck!”

I couldn’t stand him insulting Jackson, so I glared at my brother, eyes filled with a silent warning to watch his mouth.
