Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 48

"Sounds good." Emily stood up and asked, "Do I need to go home and change my clothes or anything?"

"You look good." Sam looked at Emily up and down. The girl had a natural beauty that didn't need too much embellishment.

Emily was a striking woman. While she was not as classically lovely as Anne, any man would be happy to have her on his arm. She was also from a rich family, so she had the refinement and grace of a well-to-do woman.

She had always been an excellent woman. Sam appreciated her for that.

"Really?" Emily frowned and looked at her clothes. The more she looked at them, the more dissatisfied she became. "I'm serious, Sam. I need to go home and change. I'll see you tonight!"

After that, Emily left. At this point, Sam could do nothing but shake his head, smiling.

Emily showed up on time, eight o'clock in the evening, as agreed. It was the first time meeting his parents. No matter what, she had to look her best.

They agreed to meet at a cafe near the Feng Family's house. Emily went back home, picked out a decent evening dress and put it on. Accompanied by Lee Zhang, the family chauffeur, she entered the cafe elegantly.

Lee Zhang was an older man who had watched Emily grow up. He could tell that she had a date, because she didn't dress that way normally.

Emily looked around nervously, fearing she might miss Sam.

"Miss, who are you waiting for?"

Hearing the voice, Emily whipped her head around. When she saw the familiar face, she said playfully, "Mr. Zhang, why are you still here?"

"Just came to see who's giving you butterflies, that's all." After saying that, the chauffeur laughed under his breath.

She looked at him again, smiling. She got even more nervous.

"Well, Mr. Zhang, I don't need any help here. I'll call you later tonight, okay?" Emily said as she pushed the old knight into the car.

She didn't want Lee Zhang finding out anything. If he knew, her parents would also know, before she had a chance to tell them.

Anything but that.

"Okay, okay. I'll go."

Lee Zhang got into the car with a smile. Before he left, he left Emily with a parting shot. "Miss, be confident. You got this!"

"Aww, Mr. Zhang!"

Emily was so shy that she stamped her feet, but her heart was as sweet as honey. She was happy she could hang out with Sam at his home, but then, she was a little nervous.

Sam was on the way to the cafe, after leaving the hospital. Fortunately, he didn't forget his date with Emily.

He was a workaholic and often forgot a lot of things when he was working. Fortunately, he didn't forget about his rendezvous with Emily.

"Buzz!" His phone rang when he was halfway there.

Sam answered, "Hello?"

"Sam, where are you? I need you here. Busy?"

It was Anne's voice. Sam immediately found a place and stopped the car. "What's wrong?"

Anne's voice sounded weak. Something must have happened.

"I don't know. My belly hurts. I wonder if it's the baby."

Anne's voice was quiet and weak. It must hurt a lot. Sam started the engine without hesitation.

"Where is Kevin?" He was worried something like that might happen. It seemed that Kevin was shirking his responsibilities yet again.

Anne was biting her lips and sweating.

"He left. Not sure why."

As soon as he got home, Kevin went out again without looking back. He didn't even tell her where he was going. She was happy to be back home, but she didn't expect that kind of pain as soon as she returned to her room.

"Don't worry. I'll be right there."

After hanging up the phone, Sam roared off to Anne's house. But he forgot about Emily, and she was left waiting in front of the cafe.

When he arrived, Sam found Anne lying on the ground. She was curled into a fetal position, sweating and trembling.

"Anne! Are you okay?"

There was no servant in the house, and Anne was left there alone. As soon as Kevin left, she didn't know who to call in case something happened. And something did happen. She felt pain in her womb. She decided to call Sam.

She wouldn't forgive herself if there were something wrong with the baby.

Sam helped her up and reached out to feel her forehead. It was not hot and her temperature was normal. But why was she sweating like that?

"Lie down on the sofa please." Sam helped Anne up and got her settled on the sofa. Then he went to get her a glass of water.

And when he turned the tap on, only lukewarm water came out. She had no hot water.

When he walked into the kitchen, Sam saw that the kitchen was covered with a layer of dust. He frowned and asked, "Where on earth is Kevin? How could he leave you here alone?"

Anne pressed her hands tight against her belly, and her face became paler and paler.
