Christy's POV
We paused as soon as we heard the scolding that was coming from the room.
"My love calm down, I will make sure he apologizes" a man's voice came after the woman's harsh scolding.
"You better keep quiet, did I ask you to speak? You went behind my back to send him to the hospital…How dare you!" the woman scolded again.
I already knew that the woman was his stepmother, who is also Emily's mother.
I took a deep breath and glanced at Dexter before walking into the room.
"Your good for nothing son is a burden to…." the woman was about to continue her scolding when we entered.
She looked at me with a frown then her eyes flashed with a surge of hatred. She seemed to know who I am but I don't care.
We walked to the bedside and Ashton's seems panicked when he saw us and tried to get up.
"Relax, we came to see how you are doing" Dexter said as he helped him lie back down.
