Billionaire's Reborn Baby novel Chapter 176

Only after Randy told her did Arabella know that Emma stayed at Jaquan's. In the evening, she called Jaquan and said that she would come to visit Emma at night. After all, the wound on Emma's leg was aggravated because of the efforts to save Arabella.

Before hanging up, she asked hesitantly, "Why do you let her stay at your home?"

Jaquan had just won a lawsuit for a client, and he was in a good mood. The law firm had planned to celebrate for him tonight, and he was thinking of ordering vegetable pancakes for the two people at home. When he heard that Arabella was coming over, he cancelled the celebration party. He tidied up his desk and came out of the office. His car had been repaired, and it was not raining tonight. Everything went smoothly.

He was delighted with Arabella's question, directly asking, "Are you jealous?"

Arabella snorted on the other end of the phone, "You are thinking too much. She's married and has a child. Why would I be jealous of her? Besides, I don't like you. Why would I get jealous? I'm just curious. Why are you willing to take her in? I heard that she lives in the countryside. Is it because she can't afford to stay in a hotel?"

Jaquan was feeling depressed because she said she didn't like him, but when he heard her last sentence, he frowned slightly. "She can afford that, but there's a reason."

Arabella asked, "What's the reason?"

"I don't know the exact reason, but she... Well, she has a strong personality." This was how Jaquan thought of Emma, who directly denied when she was mistaken as his girlfriend by Mrs. Cox. She didn't pretend like those affected women. The next day after she refused Mrs. Cox, he received a call from Mrs. Cox, telling him Emma was honest and frank, much better than those scheming women. She also asked him to treasure Emma instead of chasing after Arabella, who would not ever love him...

This was the first time Arabella had seen Jaquan praise another woman in front of her, and she felt upset. "Strong personality? Because she chooses to stay at your home?"

"Arabella, aren't you jealous of her for staying at my home?" Jaquan walked to the garage and put on Bluetooth, tossing his phone to the car seat.

Arabella snorted, "I'm hanging up."

"Alright. I'll tell you. Because she saved you." Jaquan smiled and solemnly repeated, "Because she saved you. I am very grateful to her, so I want to repay the debt that I owe her."

"Because of this?" Arabella sounded a little happier.

Jaquan nodded. He knew she could not see him, but he looked at the road ahead with deep affection in his eyes. "Yes, it is because of this."

"Jaquan, thank you," Arabella said happily, "I'll come over tonight and take her to my home so I can look after her. After all, she saved me."

Jaquan said, "She'll leave in two days. Don't bother."

"Okay. That's good." Arabella thought for a while and then said, "I'll ask a chef to make her a feast as my thanks to her for saving my life."

"Okay."

When Jaquan was about to drive into his compound, he passed by the pancake eatery at the gate. The woman standing at the gate was the owner who had been delivering vegetable pancakes to his home these days. She greeted him from afar, "Mr. Cox, are you ordering pancakes tonight?"

Jaquan shook his head and was about to say no, but he changed his mind as he was worried that the chef Arabella chose would not arrive in a short time. It was better to buy some food for Emma and Stony to eat and ease their hunger. When the chef came, they could taste the dishes later.

He flashed two fingers. "Two."
