Chapter 672 Even If I Died In Your Hands (1/2)
Since Sean had allowed Emily to keep her child, he already regarded himself as the father of the child. His hopes of gaining Emily's favour allowed him to change his attitude towards the fetus.
With Jacob out of the picture, Sean's dreams of being with Emily came back to life again. The thought of depriving Jacob peace in death, by raising his child with Emily pleased his dark heart.
Once again things were starting to look up for Sean.
He also thought of bringing Beryl here so that the four of them could be reunited as a family once again. As for Jacob, he was fated to become a distant memory.
Sean was certain that he was far capable of taking better care of them anyway.
Emily also noticed that Sean had grown closer to her during this period, showing more concern for the baby in her belly.
Occasionally, Sean would have her sit on the sofa while he would squat down to the floor, leaning in to her belly with his ears so he could listen to the sound inside.
Emily, however, despite her repugnance, didn't refuse his requests, because she was afraid of unleashing the monster that hid inside his heart. She carefully thought every single action she took.
”Dear brother, you are a doctor. You of all people should know that it's too early to feel any movement from the baby.”
She tried to struggle tentatively, but she was gently gripped by Sean.
”But I just want to hear its sound. It is our baby after all.”
Emily was deeply shocked and upset by his claims and she immediately refuted, ”Sean, what are you saying? It's obviously Seventh's baby. You, dear brother, are the uncle...”
'Uncle? Not that again!' Sean had already grown frustration of being the elder brother and the uncle. However, he decided not to speak out at this moment, because he was worried this would frighten Emily like it did the last time.
A situation as delicate and fragile as this would require the utmost care and patience.
So instead of responding to what Emily said, he casually changed the subject, cool as a cucumber. ”Cloris, after the baby is born, will you do to find that man?”
Emily tightened her lips and said, ”I... will not.”
