Emily looked at him with a frown and said anxiously, "Simon, why are you stopping me? If I don't step forward, your brother might hit Anthea!"
Simon didn't withdraw his arm. Instead, he looked at the front and muttered, "My brother knows what he's doing."
Upon hearing this, Emily pursed her lips. In the end, she did not step forward.
In the night wind, the conversation between them at the corner of the wall was heard by Emily and Simon.
"I'm asking you a question!"
Eyes narrowed, Adam shot a glare at Anthea.
Anthea was forced to raise her head when Adam pinched her chin, and she showed an unyielding expression. "It's the same answer, no matter how you ask me you won't get a different one. That. Is. My. Boyfriend!"
"Who allowed you to have a boyfriend?" The blue veins on Adam's forehead also popped out.
"Adam, in what identity are you asking me this question now?" Anthea ignored the fury in his eyes and how hard he pinched her chin. She turned away and said coldly, "If you are asking me this question as my elder, you should be happy that I have a boyfriend!"
Adam said in a deep voice, "I'm asking you as a man!"
Anthea's drooping hands clenched into small fists and she stubbornly said, "It's even more unnecessary to ask me! We have no relationship for a long time!"
"No relationship?" Adam's eyes narrowed.
"Yes!" Anthea's voice was louder than his. She sneered, as if she was talking about other people's affairs. "We just had sex and were lovers. Now we don't have sex and we aren't lovers!"
Adam suddenly took a step forward with his military boots, reducing the distance between them. He lowered his head, and his pronounced nose almost stuck to hers. He stared at her and said word by word, "We're not done here. Anthea, you owe me a child!"
Anthea's entire body was stiff, and the rims of her eyes gradually turned red.
Adam's eyes also turned red. Perhaps it was because of his anger or his grief, his voice turned hoarse suddenly. "You hid your pregnancy from me, and got an abortion behind my back! Anthea, you owe me a child. Do you dare deny that?"
Tears gushed out of Anthea's eyes, sliding across her cheeks and his fingertips.
Her lips were trembling and she couldn't say anything.
Because she didn't dare...
Hearing the conversation between the two, Emily almost cried out.
She covered her mouth, and her eyes were wide open because of shock. She knew that Anthea and Adam had a complicated relationship, and she also knew the indescribable relationship between them. But she didn't expect that they ever had a child...
A lot of memories flashed in her mind. It was no wonder that when Anthea knew she was pregnant, Anthea often touched her belly and showed a wistful and dazed expression. In addition, Anthea gave her many suggestions and skillfully knitted little infant socks. That was because she had a child before!
Emily subconsciously looked at Simon next to her, trying to get more details from him.
However, she was stunned by his unfathomed gaze.

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 😩...
