Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla) novel Chapter 1289

After Vik left, Edward looked at Mary. "Mary, is something bothering you? You look so pale."

Mary forced a smile. "It's nothing. I was just thinking about when you'll fully recover."

"Didn't the doctor say I could be discharged in half a month? Don't worry, I'll get better, and I won't let Emerald bully you anymore," Edward promised.

His expression turned cold as he recalled the things he had overheard Emerald say while he had been unconscious.

He would never allow her to continue running the Nixons. Neither Brian nor Delia would inherit the Nixons, either.

Moreover, his worsening condition before had been due to Emerald poisoning him. He wouldn't let her get away with it.

"Alright…" Mary answered.

Emerald quickly received the news that Edward had woken up.

When Filipe reported the news, he saw Emerald's dark expression and couldn't help but lower his gaze. "Madam, do you want to go to the hospital?"

Although Edward and Emerald's marriage had long been a mere formality, they hadn't officially divorced. If Emerald didn't visit now that she knew he was awake, people would definitely gossip.

Emerald remained silent for a moment before responding, "Not yet. I'll go in a couple of days."

"Understood, Madam," Filipe replied.

Emerald didn't go to the hospital but had someone keep an eye on the situation there to see who would rush over as soon as they heard Edward had woken up.

After giving her orders, she picked up some documents to continue working, but soon found the words becoming blurry.

She frowned, blinking hard to clear her vision, but the text kept growing more and more indistinct.

Suddenly, feeling lightheaded, everything spun, and she blacked out.
