“I’m fine. I feel a lot better now that I’ve gotten it off my ch*st.” On the other end of the phone, Jordyn’s background began to sound a bit noisy, “I’m going to go now. I’m picking Xiao Yue up from school and it’s getting late.”
“Drive safely.”
Jordyn had a high status in Kaleidoscope. If Song Xin was highly ambitious, Jordyn would definitely pose a threat to her.
But, it still wasn’t sure how Song Xin’s schemes were like.
For peace of mind, Emma instructed Luke, “Send me all the information you have on Song Xin.”
“OK,” Luke replied.
Luke quickly returned to the agency. Apart from giving Song Xin a verbal warning, he also sent Emma some information on her.
After dinner, Emma lay on the sofa and looked through Song Xin’s information. It turned out, she had a pretty strong background. Three generations of her family had been famous!
That night, while Eric wasn’t around, Emma fell asleep in the living room and had a nightmare. In her nightmare, Song Xin was strangling her neck and kicking her stomach.
Emma quickly awoke…
But, to her surprise, she was already back in bed and Eric was by her side as promised.
Emma immediately wr*pped her arms around him to calm herself down, “I’m not dreaming, am I?”
“Silly,” Eric patted her on the back of the head and hugged her tightly, “Hurry, it’s time to get up for breakfast.”
“Uh huh,” Emma pulled away the bed covers to get out of bed. But, at this time, Eric notified her softly, “Something happened to Jordyn.”
“What happened?” Emma asked curiously, “We were just talking on the phone last night…”
“Remain calm…” Eric held onto Emma as he handed her his phone.
The news was already out: the supermodel Jordyn had been attacked by a dog while protecting her daughter. She had bites all over her leg and was at risk of amputation.
The incident happened too sudden. It was a bit hard for Emma to accept, “Could it be someone with a similar name?”
“Jordyn is currently at the hospital. I’ll take you there in a moment,” Eric suggested. He knew that she’d want to confirm Jordyn’s condition personally.
“Wait a bit, Eric…I’m still in shock.”
Emma sat down on the edge of her bed and looked at the phone in detail again.
“This was an accident. They’ve already found the owner of the dog. It happened because the owner owns an aggressive breed of dog, but forgot to chain it up.”
Emma tried to process the information, but her heart was in extreme discomfort because of what Jordyn had told her the night before. However, the news had already detailed the entire incident and confirmed that it was just an accident. Plus, the owner of the dog had already offered to make a compensation.
But…compensation?
A model’s career had been completely destroyed. How was he to compensate?
What if Jordyn could never walk again?
Seeing the serious exp**ssion on Emma’s face, Eric knelt down and brushed his hand across her cheeks comfortingly, “Fletcher will make work arrangements for her and try his best to reduce the impact.”
“OK,” Emma nodded. After breakfast, she headed to Jordyn’s hospital with Eric.
As the incident happened the night before, the surgery was already finished. But, Jordyn was still unconscious.
Fletcher was sleeping on the sofa with Fletchere. The father and daughter were obviously tired.
“Daddy, someone is here,” Fletchere had been awoken and was tugging on Fletcher’s sleeve. As soon as he spotted Emma, Fletcher immediately sat up.
“We’ve barely managed to save her legs from amputation, but the scars will forever remain. This is the least of her matters. The worst thing is, she might never be able to walk on the runway again.”
Hearing her father’s words, Fletchere burst into tears, “This happened to Mommy because she was trying to save me.”
Jordyn was awoken by the crying. As she opened her eyes and looked at the snowy white ceiling, it took her a while before she recalled what had happened the day before.
“Xiao Yue…”
“Mommy, I’m here,” Fletchere immediately ran over.
Seeing Fletchere was OK, Jordyn was relieved.
At this moment, Emma approached Jordyn and looked at her as she said, “You may not be able to walk on the runway for a while. There will be scars left on your leg.”
“Oh, really…” Jordyn appeared indifferent. However, Emma could hear the sound of her heart break. Although Jordyn often said that she didn’t want to walk the runway anymore and no longer wanted to be a model, now that she was finally stripped of the ability, the sadness and disappointment still consumed her.
“Jingjing,” Fletcher also approached her and held onto her hand, “I won’t give up.”
“It’s fine. As long as Xiao Yue is OK, it doesn’t matter what happens to me. Emma, you should go home in case you contract any diseases from the hospital. It’s no joke,” Jordyn tried her best to send the people in the room away. “You should all leave. Don’t make it harder for me.”
Emma nodded. She understood that Jordyn needed some time on her own, so she did not insist on staying. However, on the way home, she received a message from Jordyn, “Don’t worry about me.”
Apart from feeling worried, Emma was also overcome by another feeling: the realization that life was unpredictable.
She had just been on the phone with Jordyn yesterday, but today…
Worst of all, no matter how much Fletcher tried to help Jordyn, the fact that she was hurt was already a sign that she had lost all chances of advancing in the future. People were always coming and going in the industry. If they were to wait until Jordyn fully recovered, who would still remember her?
“Eric, Jingjing is a proud person. We need to keep her options open.”
Eric was speechless. He simply wr*pped his arm around Emma’s shoulder and pulled her into his arms
…
That sunny afternoon, at the Song Household.
Song Xin had just woken up and found her assistant waiting for her in the living room.
“I’ve done what you asked me to do. It was spectacular.” Song Xin’s assistant was not arranged by Kaleidoscope, she was a close friend from high school who followed Song Xin into the industry after she debuted.
“I’ve overestimated Emma and her friends,” Song Xin sat down on the sofa with a head of messy hair, “Squeezing them to death isn’t as hard as I anticipated.”
“Jordyn was easy to deal with because no one knew the dog rushed towards her daughter because of a small bone hidden in her daughter’s pocket. But, what should we do about Emma?”
Song Xin supported her chin as she fell into deep thought amongst the warmth of the sun, “Let me think about it…”
“Emma can’t be dealt with using a simple dog.”
“Her child!” Song Xin suddenly remembered. “If she suddenly lost it…what would she do?”
“But…her child is almost 8 months old.”
“When my mother forced my father’s mistress to have an abortion, nothing happened to her. She just suffered a slight mental breakdown,” Song Xin replied. To her, as long as a child wasn’t born yet, it wasn’t considered a life.
“But…we have no chance to make a move,” the assistant said helplessly.
“How do we not have a chance? Emma and her mother-in-law are on bad terms. Isn’t this the perfect opportunity to get rid of our enemy using someone else’s hands?”
Song Xin was referring to Wren.
“But, hasn’t Wren suffered enough because of Emma?”
“It’s because she is suffering, that’s why we can make use of her anger,” Song Xin said leisurely. “A matter like this is easy to handle. I just need you to set the wheels in motion.”
