Emily returned to the store with a heavy heart. Candy asked in surprise, "Emily, what's wrong with you? What's wrong?"
Emily shook his head and said, "It's okay. How's business in the store today?"
"Very good. Although it's almost as good as yesterday, it's pretty good," Candy said happily.
Emily smiled and said, "I'll give you and ding a bonus when the sales are done."
"Thank you, Emily," Candy said happily.
Joyce walked out and asked Emily, "Are you all done?"
"Well, it's done. Don't worry!" Emily nodded.
"That's good." Joyce heaved a sigh of relief, but then looked at Emily's worried face and frowned, "Haven't everything been settled? Why do you still look so worried?"
"Joyce, I want to go to the hospital for a checkup," Emily whispered.
"Ah, check, what check. What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Joyce immediately asked with concern.
Emily shook his head and sighed, "It's not that I'm not feeling well, it's... I've been with Franklin for so long. Why don't you think I'm pregnant?"
Emily, you have a fever! How old are you? If you're not pregnant, you're not pregnant. It's scary to have a child now. It's not that easy to raise a child. I've seen my cousin's child. It's so noisy. My cousin used to be a beautiful woman, and now she's dragged down like a yellow-faced woman. I don't even have a plan to get married now. Even if I get married, I'll have to spend two more years with them. I'll have a baby when I'm done enjoying it," Joyce said with conviction.
Emily sighed. She was not in a hurry, but Franklin was in a hurry!
"It's not that I want it. If I can, I don't want children either."
"Does Franklin want it? I can't tell. He still likes children."
"I didn't see that he liked children either. All I knew was that as the heir to the Brents, he was going to give birth to a child before he was thirty." Emily looked sad.
"Ah?" Joyce was surprised, "Before he was thirty? How old is he now?"
"Twenty-nine, to be exact, twenty-nine and a half years old, which means there's less than half a year left. If my stomach doesn't move at all, then the people from their The Brents will be able to stand up, either to make way for him or to make way for me."
"It's so serious! It's hard to get into a rich family! But you still have half a year to worry about it. It depends on fate. Fate is here, and you can have twins." Joyce comforted her.
Emily laughed. She didn't feel relaxed at all. Instead, she felt even more stressed.
"Half a year, how can I guarantee that I can get pregnant? How long has it been? Even Lucas is pregnant after his second marriage. I haven't moved yet. If this continues, there will be no hope for the rest of the six months," Emily said in despair.
"How about I accompany you to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow?" Joyce said.
Emily nodded and pursed her lips, "The better I was with Franklin, the better I was going for a checkup. But I was so scared. What if it was my problem? I'll go get a physical examination first. I can relax if it's not for me."
"But if you have no problem, what will he do?" Joyce asked.
Emily immediately said nonchalantly, "Then I'm not afraid. If he can't have a baby, he can't have a baby. I don't dislike him. Even if he can't continue to be the heir to the Brents, I don't care."
"Well, if he hears what you said, he must be very moved," Joyce said with a smile.
