Chapter 521 Casey’s Instinct
As Georgia finished, Aston left the hotel in a rage.
“Don’t blame yourself. Aston’s just angry right now. He’ll think things through.”
Robert comforted Georgia, who forced a smile.
At eight or so at night, husband and wife made a video call in the hotel.
They’d been busy the past few days and hadn’t talked properly with the children.
It wasn’t until today that they’d had the spare time to chat with the kids. They’d promised to take them
back a few days ago, but because of Emilia’s incident, they’d broken their word again.
So Georgia and Robert needed to apologize to Annie and Wesley properly.
“Mommy, Daddy!”
As the call connected, Annie and Wesley’s faces appeared on screen.
Georgia and Robert were sitting together, and the two set the tablet before them.
“Annie, Wesley, Mommy and Daddy might take a few more days before we come over to pick you up.
Can you two forgive Mommy and Daddy for breaking our promise this time?”
As Georgia said that, Robert also apologized to the kids.
“Daddy and Mommy promise that a few days later, we’ll come back to pick you up in person. Annie and
Wesley, you two stay good over at the king’s place for a little bit longer, okay?”
The kids ducked their heads, a little down.
But soon, Wesley asked on, worried.
“Grandma says that Daddy and Mommy didn’t come to pick us up this time because Auntie Emilia is
hurt. Is Auntie doing better? Annie is fine and I’m fine too. We just miss Daddy and Mommy.”
Annie chimed in.
“We just want Daddy and Mommy not to get hurt. We miss you, but we’ll be good. If you’re still busy
with stuff and can’t pick us up, Grandma can take us home too.
“Your eyes are so baggy, Mommy and Daddy. If you’re too tired, you don’t have to come pick us up.
You have to be good and sleep too. Don’t make yourselves too tired.”
Georgia felt both moved and sad over how much she missed them too, but there was nothing that
could be done about it. She couldn’t leave.
Of course, she could have people take the children to their side and try her best to guarantee their
safety.
But now, she was afraid and worried Eric would launch a sudden attack.
“Auntie Emilia’s hurt and still needs to stay in hospital for a while. Don’t worry, Annie and Wesley.
Daddy and I, your Uncle Ivan, your Great-uncle and Great-aunt and Great-grandpa are all going to try
our best to help your Auntie get better.”
Emilia’s condition was too complicated for the children to understand, so Georgia could only reassure
them that way.
After talking intimately with the children, Georgia’s mother took the kids somewhere else to play.
She chatted with Georgia and Robert alone for a while. Casey asked about Emilia’s situation, and
Georgia held nothing back.
After hearing it, Casey’s expression turned sorrowful.
“Emilia had always been boyish and strong and independent. She didn’t want to rely on the Powell
family either, and spent her days traveling and having fun, living the life she wanted freely. The way she
is now, they must have tortured her in ways she couldn’t bear. Otherwise, as willful as she is, she
couldn’t have ended up this way.”
Georgia understood that much as well, and she dipped her head silently. Casey continued.
“What do the doctors say? Is there any way to restore Emilia to normal?”
“Mental trauma is all about how the cards fall. The doctors might have a way to treat it, but whether or
not she can get better is up to her. But Emilia’s remaining in a broken state now. Nobody can approach
her and nobody can give her counselling. We’ll have to see if she comes off after a while, then if we
can go for therapy.”
Casey sighed.
“You must be blaming yourself right now, Georgia. No one wanted this. I’ll help you take care of the
kids. The most important thing right now is to find professionals to treat her mental issues. You still
have to research Robert’s condition. Don’t let yourself fall into despair. You have to work hard and
protect the people close to you.”
“I’ve got it, Mom. I won’t fall with this much. I know who the real person responsible is. Robert and I
won’t stop until we hunt Eric down and make him pay.”
Robert also reassured Casey, having been by Georgia’s side all along.
“Don’t worry, Mom. My condition is stable for now. I’ll protect Georgia and stay behind her. As for
Emilia’s condition, Ivan is my brother, and he knows a lot of professionals. He’s also conducted
research in this area himself. Our side won’t give up on treating Emilia. If it gets serious, we can do
nerve treatments to make her forget about what’s happened, but unless there’s no other option, we
won’t go for it.”
“What about Emilia’s parents? Haven’t you told them as well? Are they blaming you?”
Casey asked about Margie and Oscar, while Georgia explained.
“Aunt Margie’s got an understanding, just personality. She didn’t blame us. She just wants us to help
treat Emilia and find some way to take revenge on Eric. Robert also chatted for a long time with Uncle
Oscar, and they’re going to set up a plan behind the scenes to corner Eric. Oscar told us that he wants
the people out there to know what’d happen if they hurt a Powell. We won’t let Eric go.”
As Georgia and Robert finished, Casey continued asking. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
“What about the old man? Has he communicated or chatted about anything?”
“No, it’s been Oscar and Margie all along. Emilia’s their daughter, after all. The old man only had
Oscar’s secretary stick to us all the while.”
Casey frowned and seemed to be thinking about something. Georgia didn’t understand, and asked
about it.
“What are you thinking about, Mom? Why do you look so strange?”
“I told you before what kind of personality Emilia’s parents had. I always felt like husband and wife were
a bit strange. You’ve met several times with them now. Have you noticed anything off about those two?
Anything illogical?”
