Nora suppressed the pain from her belly and yelled at Oca.
Seeing that her eyes were red and she was firm, and Rose was about to arrive, Oca knew he couldn't
stay here much longer.
Oca's face was gloomy. But he finally left.
Rose met Oca at the staircase when she came. There was a flash of surprise in her eyes, "Mr. Oca?"
"Mrs. Lee," Oca greeted her politely, passed by her, and left.
Rose didn't think much of it. Thinking of Nora saying her stomach hurt, she rushed to find her.
When she arrived, Nora's hair was already wet with sweat and clung to her face. Her lips were
colorless and she looked haggard.
"Nora, are you okay? Why do you suddenly have a stomachache?" Rose held her up.
Nora gripped Rose's shirt tightly, "Rose, my baby ... I want my baby to be well..."
"Don't worry. I'll take you to the hospital now." Rose called two men to help Nora to her car.
Luckily, this was the center of the city and close to the hospital. It only took them a few minutes to drive
to the hospital.
Nora was wheeled into the emergency room by the doctors. Rose waited there alone.
The results showed that it was because of anger. The doctor advised that the pregnant woman should
be relaxed and not get too emotional.
Both Nora and Rose were relieved to know that the baby was okay.
Nora had become quite weak since she was pregnant. She had been in the hospital many times.
Rose poured a glass of warm water for her and she took a big sip, "Rose, I've caused you trouble
again. Mr. Bright will tear me apart when he finds out."
"Don't mention it." Rose put on a long face in displeasure, "Bright didn't say anything after knowing
you're pregnant. His bark is worse than his bite."
Nora just smiled.
Rose picked up the cleaned apple and peeled it, quietly looked up at Nora, "Nora, I met Mr. Oca when I
came."
Nora froze for a while. It was natural that Rose would meet Oca.
"He came here for lunch." Nora said lightly.
"Nothing happened between you and him, right?" Rose was afraid Nora would chase Oca again.
"I was drunk last time. But this time I'm sober. What can I do to him?" Nora said this on the surface, but
could not help thinking of him inside.
She could forget the way he forced her and questioned her in the box just now. he looked so scary that
it seemed that he wanted to eat her.
Nora gently withdrew her hands on her belly. As long as she did not admit that the child was his, he
could not do anything to her, right?
"Nora, Mr. Oca and Hazel are lovers. You should keep a distance from him." Rose reminded her, not
wanting her to be confused and make mistakes because of Oca's face.
"I know." Nora also knew Rose was doing it for her own good, "I'll take care."
Rose gave Nora the cut apple, "Have some fruit."
Just as she finished her words, Rose's cell phone rang. Nora took the plate with the apple and let Rose
answer the phone.
"Where are you?" Bright's magnetic, nice voice came.
"I'm having lunch with Nora." Rose lied. In fact, they would have been sitting in the restaurant having
lunch if Nora hadn't had a stomach ache.
"We'll fly back to City J at 4,00 p.m., please pack up." Bright's business was finished. He could leave
after lunch, "Doris is already complaining at home that Mommy and Daddy abandon her."
"OK, I get it." Rose had been out these days. Naturally, she also missed Doris.
Nora said after Rose hung up, "Mr. Bright let you go back to City J?"
Rose nodded. She did want to be with Nora. But Doris was dissatisfied.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of myself." Nora stuck a piece of apple with a toothpick and handed it to
Rose, "I still have nanny and Alan. Besides, Alan's mother is moving in to Springhill Villa. So, you don't
have to worry too much about me.
Rose, we are not the same as we were when we were young. We all have our own families and can't
be together all the time like we used to be. It's right that our husband and children come first. Let's all
live a good life."
Nora saw it clearly. She did not want Rose to blame herself for not being with her when she needed
her.
"Rose, although we can't do what we want like we used to, we are closer friends."
Rose smiled, "We'll always be best friends for life."
Nora and Rose clasped their hands together. They would never forget their promise.
"Did you and Alan make up? He agreed to keep this child?" Rose didn't know what had happened after
she left that day.
"I took his advice. I had no choice." Nora told her all about the negotiations with Alan, "I was selfish and
wanted to keep the child. "
Rose didn't say anything more. She understood how much Nora wanted to be a mother.
Once Nora was stable, Rose sent her back to Springhill Villa before coming back to Asgard Lake
Community.
Bright was already waiting for her at home. Then, they went back to City J together.
After they left City J, Doris was sent to the Lee family's villa. So, they went to the Lee family's villa first
and it was just time for dinner.
There was only Francis in the house. Hallie was not there.
Doris ran to her parents happily when she saw them back. But after running halfway, she stopped,
turned around and sat down next to Francis again, continuing to play checkers with her Grandpa.
Bright and Rose looked at each other and knew that their daughter was angry.
"Honey, what's wrong?" Rose stepped forward to coax her.
"You guys left me to enjoy lovers' world. So I don't want you guys either. I'll stay with Grandpa and not
go back with you, so that you won't think I'm an eyesore." Doris got angry.
"..." Rose looked up at Bright, gesturing for him to coax Doris.
"Honey, Daddy went on a business trip and picked up Mommy on the way back. I didn't leave you
behind. We came to pick you up as soon as we got off the plane. Aren't we sincere enough?" Bright
could only be so patient and gentle with Doris.
"Liar." Doris was angry, not believing her father's words at all.
"I also bought you a lot of gifts, including your favorite Dougie's new EP. It is special signed and has
picture books, posters and pillows. Only you can get them. Don't you want it?" Bright could only use
this trick.
Hearing that it was a gift about Dougie, Doris was very happy. She could not hide it. Her eyes were
bright and she looked forward to it.
"If you want to see it, eat well. You can open it when we go home. Mommy and Daddy will be with you."
Bright knew Doris was attracted.
