Chapter 1017 Sorry

"I won't," Douglas replied. "Just rest up. Once the baby's born, you'll be the one taking care of it. I won't take it from you," he promised.

Only then did Whitney relax. Exhaustion started overwhelming her. She had been losing sleep lately because of Douglas' case. Now that she finally felt sleepy, she yawned. Slowly, she drifted to sleep.

Seeing the woman who was terrified a moment ago falling asleep so fast made Douglas smile. He leaned forward and slowly placed her back down on the bed. Once he pulled the blanket up, his phone started vibrating. He thought the call was from work, but then he saw that it was from Emily. He was hesitant to pick it up at first. Douglas looked at the pale Whitney and walked out of the ward before he took the call.

Emily cut to the chase. "Where are you?"

"Back in the nation," Douglas answered honestly.

"You went to see her," said Emily calmly.

"Yes," answered Douglas.

"I told you not to see her. Can't we just be a family?" Emily was getting a little agitated.
