No bloodied eye she had imagined. His eye was not even red and swollen. The skin behind his eye was grazed, leaving a welt, which could not be named as a wound. She believed that it would disappear after tonight.
Only then did she realize that she had been tricked by him!
She was even more annoyed and she reached out her hand to push him away.
However, how could she make it at this time? As early as she began to move, Simon had hugged her tightly. No matter what she said, he would not loosen his grip.
He buried his handsome face in her shoulder like a big dog. "No blood, but real pain!"
Emily gritted her teeth.
Simon wrapped his arms around her waist and croaked, "Emily, are you and baby really all right?"
Hearing that he was indeed very worried, she pursed her lips and replied in a low voice, "Yes."
Simon suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Although she said so, he thought about calling Director Ye later for confirmation, otherwise, he could not rest assured.
He raised his hand on her back up to rub her head. His Adam's apple moved slightly. "Were you frightened?"
"Yes..." Emily nodded.
She was indeed frightened, extremely frightened, so she hoped that he would be by her side. At that time, her insides were like jelly and she didn't know what to do. And most of the time, she was afraid that she might lose the child...
Simon hugged her even more tightly, his thin lips pressed against her ear. "If it happens again in the future, I will definitely stay by your side. You will never be afraid!"
Emily curled her lips, but she didn't want to experience it again.
She snorted and said bitterly, "If I can't reach you when I need you again. I'll go abroad with your child and marry to a beggar!"
"No way!" Simon's eyes suddenly narrowed.
Beggar...
How could she ever imagine this!
Simon wanted to warn her but soon realized that he was guilty in this matter. He poked the corners of her mouth with his slender fingers and said lazily, "Good girl, Emily, smile for me!"
"Dream on!" Emily glared at him.
How could he demand her like this!
Simon held her in his arms again. This time, he no longer buried his handsome face in her shoulder. Instead, he let her head press against his chest, with his warm hand on her head.
With her ear against his chest, she could hear his heartbeat.
Emily struggled for a while but gave up since she could not break away. Hearing his steady heartbeat, she felt much calmer. She was no longer so depressed, but an uneasy feeling was still hanging over her.
After two seconds of silence, she asked faintly, "Miss Sam's case came on fortrial today?"
"Mn." Simon nodded.
He was surprised why she knew. But thinking of Tina's message, he guessed that she might have gone to the cardiac surgery department since she could get through to him. But originally he didn't intend to hide it from her.
Emily pursed her lips and asked, "What's the result?"

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
