Your Uncle’s My Husband Now Back Off, Ex Novel

Chapter 1169 "But he doesn't want to see you." The woman sneered. "Before he collapsed, he specifically said that if the three of you showed up, you weren't to be let in. Isn't that hilarious?" Emerald scowled. "I don't care. I'm seeing him tonight." "You think you can do whatever you want just because you're in charge of the Nixons now?" Mary Jewell challenged. Emerald had no patience for her nonsense. Her voice was sharp. "Break in." At her command, the men behind her surged forward. Mary's face paled slightly, and she instinctively stepped back.

The two guards in front of the door immediately moved to intercept them. Fifteen minutes later, the hospital hallway was littered with bodies-Emerald's men had all been taken down. Yet, the two original guards remained firmly in place, unmoved. Mary reappeared, lifting her chin with an air of arrogance. "Looks like you won't be getting in tonight after all. If I were you, I wouldn't bother humiliating myself like this." Emerald let out a cold laugh. "Mary, your luck won't last forever." Once Edward was dead, Mary and her son would lose their protection.

At that point, she would deal with them however she pleased. Mary's expression flickered for a moment before she regained her composure. "You said the same thing when we first met. But strangely enough, I've been doing just fine all these years." "Alright," Emerald said, her voice steely. "We'll see how long you last." With that, she turned and walked away. Brian and Delia hurried after her. It wasn't until they got into the car that Brian finally spoke. "Mom, if Mary keeps blocking us from seeing Dad, what should we do next?" It had been almost half a year since they last saw Edward.

Every time they tried, they were turned away. When Brian was born, Edward and Emerald's relationship had still been decent, so Brian still had some attachment to his father. Delia, however, had been born after Edward moved out to live with Mary and their son. He rarely returned home, so Delia felt little connection to him. For her, not seeing him didn't make much of a difference. Emerald's expression was grim. "Ignore her for now. She's just a clown. Once your father dies, let's see if she's still so smug." "Understood," Brian replied.

By the time they returned to the estate, it was nearly midnight. Brian and Delia headed straight to bed, while Emerald went to her study. She called for the butler. "Edward's health is deteriorating. Keep a close eye on the situation. The moment anything happens, I want to be informed immediately." If his condition weren't serious, those two guards wouldn't have fought so hard to keep them from seeing him. Once they saw Edward, they d be able to tell how he was. doing. "Yes, Madam," the butler replied. Emerald continued, her voice sharp. "Also, find out where Nyla is.

Bring her back before tomorrow night's banquet." She dismissed the butler with a wave of her hand. Less than half an hour later, the butler rushed back, his face anxious. "Madam, we've lost track of Ms Kinsey. Shortly after she left the estate, she just disappeared. Emerald's expression darkened. "Keep searching. Check those watching the estate. See if they've acted unusually tonight." "Understood," the butler answered. By the next morning, there was still no sign of Nyla. For the first time, Emerald began to panic.

She immediately ordered more men to search the entire city for her whereabouts.
