I shook my head helplessly. Oh, these two are going to be fighting with each other for life…
We heard footsteps coming from upstairs moments later, and saw John hurrying down with his assistant after getting changed. When the two of them got to the front door, John paused in his tracks and called out to us from afar, “Remember, don’t leave the house! Do not go anywhere until I get back!”
“Got it!” I nodded.
He then turned towards Emma and waited for her to mumble a response before leaving the house.
Looks like something has happened to Uncle Louis…
“Don’t worry. Uncle Louis is a good man and has dedicated his life to serving the people, so I’m sure he’ll be fine,” Emma said calmly and continued staring out the window.
What she said made sense, but I still found myself worrying about Louis as there was simply no telling what would happen these days.
Emma got up from her chair and walked towards the window. “Rain and snow mix so well together, so why can’t we just…” she mumbled to herself while placing her hand against the glass.
Despite her claims about wanting to let go of John and move on, she obviously still cares about his words and actions. I bet she’s feeling upset because of his cold behavior earlier…
I was about to console her when I felt something warm gushing out from between my legs and short bursts of pain in my lower abdomen.
I looked down and saw a huge puddle beneath my feet, a sight that I knew all too well.
The pain was so intense that I couldn’t even call out to Emma.
