Billionaire's Reborn Baby novel Chapter 268

Arabella didn't feel good. Having been strangled and dying, she hadn't recovered from scare. And she had to take a statement as the "only witness" because Emma, who ran too fast, was unnoticed.

Before he left, Ferne had arranged for them to delay the taking of statements in case Arabella and Jaquan were revenged on by the villains.

Arabella didn't know about this. After Jaquan's negotiation with someone, she left the police station, caught in his arms.

Getting away from danger, Arabella found herself in a mess. The dirt, the tears and the makeup made her forget about danger and fear. Her image was now the more important thing.

Jaquan took her to the bathroom. She washed her face at sink at the door, and then she noticed Stony squatting nearby.

Jaquan had noticed Emma walking strangely. His heart sank when he saw Stony standing at the entrance of the bathroom.

Before Arabella could ask Stony anything, Jaquan walked straight into the ladies' bathroom. She guessed that Emma, who had seen her being a coward, was inside. Arabella didn't want to see her because that would remind her of how brave Emma was and what a wimp she was. She was useless and a burden to Emma.

She did not expect Jaquan to bring Emma out. The surprise in her eyes made Emma frowned and she tried to shake off Jaquan's hands. But he clutched her hand.

Jaquan thought of nothing but bringing her to the hospital. He did that in case she escaped halfway. He was so worried for Emma that he forgot about Arabella, who also needed his comfort.

When he saw Emma's injured and bleeding shoulder, there was only one thought left in his heart: Take her to the hospital.

He walked with Emma, leaving Arabella and Stony far behind. Emma would have punched him to let go of her, if not for her injured shoulder. The struggles had made her pain worse and she held her breath. When she got to the car, she had figured out the reason for Jaquan's actions. She turned around to find Arabella's long face. She was sure.

Jaquan was using her to make Arabella jealous.

"There's no need to do this. She likes you." Emma suddenly said.

She walked behind Jaquan. Her gaze was calm. She raised her head, only to see the back of Jaquan's head. His hair grew a little longer and she could smell the scent of his perfume, which had become familiar to her since she lived in his house. He got three rows of them in the cabinet of the bathroom whose bottom was filled with empty bottles. She always knew that he was devoted.

Jaquan turned around, and asked in puzzlement, "What?"

The golden sunlight shone on them. The sun was surprisingly warm in winter.

Emma looked him in the eye quietly for the first time. He had wrinkled eyelids and narrow eyes which seemed affectionate in the sunlight. He looked puzzled, as if he did not hear what she said, or couldn't get it.

Emma wouldn't repeat it. She just looked at him quietly. She wanted to figure out from his eyes the reason for his anger that made him barge in the bathroom and grab her hands. Before she could get an answer, she was stuffed into the car, her seat belt fastened.

Coming from behind and seeing this, Arabella had a complicated feeling that was beyond expression. The smile on her face vanished. She directly got in the car and so did Stony.
