The Spoiled Girl - Chapter 1578 Discharge From The Hospital
Whenever people checked social media sites on their phones, they would find women of all ages showing off their newly bought personalized skincare products from the KING Group. Even men were rejoicing since they finally had the perfect present for their girlfriends and wives. That whole week, every lifestyle show on TV couldn’t stop talking about the products either.
People appreciated the fact that the KING Group created their products with individuality in mind. Each set was tailor-made for a specific skin color, condition, and type. With that much attention to detail, it wasn’t surprising that everyone went crazy over these new products.
Meanwhile, the KING Group’s recent success left Sam feeling helpless. For him, it was unsettling to think that their competitor might catch up to them while Jacob was away. To add to his worries, the only thing he saw on his phone was Darren’s brand new skincare products. As a result, he just fiddled with his phone like a toy and thought about whether it was the right time to ask for his boss’s help.
But no matter how much he wanted to go to Jacob, the thought of bothering him while he was recovering in the hospital just didn’t sit well with Sam. With that, his feelings of helplessness grew, and a subtle hint of worry started to show on his face bit by bit. A few hours later, Sam couldn’t take it anymore. He knew the situation would only get worse if he didn’t ask for Jacob’s guidance. Sam knew in his heart that his boss was the only one who knew what to do in these kinds of situations. But the fact that Jacob’s condition might worsen if he was to hear some bad news right now brought him to a standstill. In the end, Sam could only sit in a corner and accept the fact that he didn’t know what to do.
Meanwhile, still at the hospital, Emily was making sure that Jacob was eating enough food to get his strength back. When breakfast was over, she thought that it would be nice to buy some gifts for their children when they finally saw them again. So she took out her phone, but as soon as she opened her favorite online store, the entire homepage, from top to bottom, was filled with the KING Group’s brand new line of skincare products.
She was instantly hooked and couldn’t stop scrolling down on her phone. But after a few seconds, she quickly realized that it wasn’t right to get excited over the KING Group’s products, given that she was married to the HT Group’s CEO, who considered the KING Group to be their mortal enemy. Emily thought how unlucky it was that these products were made by that horrible man named Darren. There was no doubt in her mind that if some other company had released these products, she would’ve bought them in a blink of an eye.
Because of this, a subtle frown made its way onto Emily’s face. But since she was right in front of Jacob, she knew it wasn’t a good idea to show her sorrows to him while he was recovering.
Meanwhile, Jacob was lying in bed and sneakily paying close attention to his wife. No matter how hard Emily tried to hide her sadness, he could clearly see that something was bothering her just by the look on her face. Out of the corner of his eye, Jacob saw a glimpse of her phone. Considering that she was looking at an online store, he immediately thought she wanted to buy something expensive, but didn’t want to waste money on it. With that in mind, Jacob lovingly said, “Don’t worry about the price. You can buy whatever you want. Here, use my card.”
Even if he knew this wasn’t enough to repay her kindness, he would still openheartedly buy her anything she wanted.
ing Emily’s cheek, he replied with a smile, “I know I’m competent.”
After that, he became serious and added, “But Darren has made such a big move in a small amount of time. Even I didn’t expect this to happen. I’m sure you’re well aware of this, but let me remind you again. If we let Darren do whatever he wants and we’re not there to keep him in check, he’ll only become more difficult to deal with as time goes on. I’m afraid that if we don’t do something about this, the consequences will be unthinkable.”
Emily’s motherly nature quickly awakened with Jacob’s words. The thought that her children might be put in danger once again gave her shivers down her spine. In her mind, Jacob was absolutely right. If Darren were to have the chance to be what he had once been, everyone Emily knew would be in grave danger.
“But…” Emily murmured in disagreement since it was still hard for her to let Jacob go knowing what harm it could do to his health.
The look on Emily’s face struck a chord in Jacob’s heart. He knew he couldn’t leave the hospital without assuring her that he was going to be okay. “Don’t worry about it. I’ll just arrange a private doctor to follow me wherever I go.”
Having been by his side for so long, Emily knew that there was no chance to persuade Jacob once he had made up his mind. In the end, she just agreed with him. After giving him some medicine, she took a bunch of papers and went to the reception desk to handle his discharge from the hospital.
While Emily was gone, Sam took this time to ask Jacob for more information. “Mr. Gu, what did you have in mind?”
Feeling a bit groggy, Jacob rubbed his furrowed eyebrows while he thought of an answer. He’d been forced by Emily to stay and rest in the hospital for so long that his brain was feeling a bit rusty.
Luckily for him, Sam had taken the initiative to think of a solution himself. On the way to the hospital, he had thought of a good idea that he couldn’t wait to tell Jacob. “The KING Group’s new skincare products are primarily characterized by their trendy packaging and the option to customize them. Since their costumers go crazy for those kinds of things, and not to mention that there isn’t any companies at the moment that do the same, their supply will inevitably run out. When that happens, we can launch our own products. By then, I’m sure their customers would be willing to try something new as long as we do our work with the advertising.”
