My Great Escape Led Me to You novel Chapter 303

She remembered the college entrance exam questions—there was no way her results would be bad.

The thought lit up Emily Blair’s eyes.

Of course! How could she almost forget she still remembered the exam questions from last year?

If that was the case, maybe Elizabeth Wilson’s college entrance exam wasn’t a lost cause after all.

After chatting for a while, the door opened and Emma George walked in, looking utterly exhausted. Sweat glistened on her forehead, and her hair was a tangled mess.

Emily stared at her in surprise. “Mom, where have you been?”

Emma George dusted herself off before coming all the way into the hospital room. She took a long drink of water and finally replied, “I went out to get you some free-range chickens, caught more than a dozen—enough to last you half a month. And don’t worry, I picked up a big stash of ribs from the market, too. I’ll make you hearty chicken soup and rib broth every day to help you get your strength back. You’ll recover faster.”

Emily handed her a tissue to wipe away the sweat. “Mom, that’s way too much. There’s no way I can eat all that by myself. Besides, the housekeeper here takes good care of me already. You really don’t have to go through all this trouble.”

Emma shot her a look. “Nothing beats a mother’s cooking. No one else makes it as tasty as I do. You have to drink my soup, and I don’t care if you think it’s too much—you need the nourishment. You broke a bone, after all; now’s the time to rebuild your strength.”

Elizabeth quickly chimed in, “Really, it’s fine! I’m still here, too. I’ll help her finish all that soup—promise.”

Emma’s face lit up as she turned to her. “You must be Elizabeth Wilson! Emily has told me so much about you. Thank you for looking after her at school. I’ve been meaning to thank you in person.”

Elizabeth waved her hand, smiling. “No need to thank me. Just save me a drumstick when you make the chicken soup—that’s all I ask.”
