Chapter 857 Unspeakable Pain (2/2)

”Dear...Rita...”

David was calling her name!

Rita's eyes sparkled with tears right away.

”I'm here. I'm here.” She chocked on her tears and immediately took his hand in hers.

”David, I...”

She had so

missing them.” He shook his head and tried to look brave.

Emily understood that kids of Dylan's age would miss their own families, no matter how much fun they were having with their friends.

She felt sad for him. Feeling this sadness angered her, making her want to beat David and Nora up for the troubles they had caused.

”Darling, what's up? You have been upset since you came back from the hospital,”

Jacob asked Emily that night in a concerned tone as he hugged her in his arms while she sat on the bedside in a daze.

Emily seemed to be really dispirited when she had returned from the hospital. And when he tried to talk to her, she would stare at Dylan. He wondered what magic the boy had which drew her attention so much.

”Nothing.” She sighed as she leaned against Jacob's chest.

Smelling his freshly showered fragrance Emily closed her eyes and said wearily, ”Nora is pregnant.”

Yes, Nora had been pregnant for ten weeks or so. According to Rita's reaction to the news, this child might indeed be David Xu's.

'Sure, it's for the best if the child isn't his. But what if… Then it's anyone's guess how things will turn out, ' Emily's mind kept milling over the day's events as she pondered.

”So what? The Xu family might send her back to M Country.” Jacob cared about no woman other than Emily, so he didn't think it was a big deal.

'Things might be easier if they could do that. If so, then Rita and I need not to be vexed about it, ' she considered.

Emily shook her head. ”No. Nora said this child was David's.”
