When finishing her words, Emma took Nunu and left without looking back.
Emma left.
Everyone was blue in the face, especially George.
Kate walked quietly to George, and said softly, "sir, you are in poor health. Don't be angry. I don't think
Emma did it on purpose..."
George didn't look at Kate’s face at all, but stared straight at Jessie, who was still in Simon’s arms, and
said, "can't you let me have a meal quietly? Can't you stop stirring things up for a moment?! "
Jessie was astonished, she frowned, and raised her voice, "dad! You know, I'm afraid of dogs..."
The old man picked up the cane and gestured, "it's just a dog, so is it worth to make a big fuss?"
The rim of Jessie’s eyes turned red. Watching the old man, she was close to tears, since he was partial
to his granddaughter regardless of right or wrong.
After the old man finished his words, he threw the cane aside with a bang, and shouted at the servant
beside him, "I am not eating any more, help me upstairs!"
The dining room suddenly became quiet.
Except for Jessie sobbing, everyone else lower their heads and kept silent.
Ivan got up and said, "excuse me, I have something to do. I need to go now."
Kate raised her head, her lips moved slightly, and finally did not say anything, and nodded.
In fact, it was understandable that Ivan chose to leave at that time.
After all, this is the family affair of the Powell family, and he was of no help staying here.
Simon got up and sent Ivan out.
————
It was dark outside.
Emma took Nunu and walked on the street, put her hands in her pockets, and kicked the Coke bottle
cap at her feet far away.
She never thought that after so many years, she was still so impulsive.
Every time she saw Jessie, she couldn't help but want to rush up and tear her hypocritical face...
However, apart from being a little guilty for her grandpa, she was actually quite happy that night.
The phone in the pocket of her coat rang.
She took it from her pocket, it was Ivan calling.
Emma ended the phone call and put it back.
Her phone rang again, then she ended it again.
After repeating several times, Emma was also annoyed.
She answered the phone call and said angrily, "what’s wrong with you?!"
There was silence for a few seconds on the other end of the phone, and Sean's voice came.
"Emma?"
She was stunned, then she recognized that it was Sean.
She couldn't help but whispered, what did he call for? Did he want to mention the car window again?
Thinking of this, Emma's tone immediately became gentle, and said, "Uncle Sean..."
There was an Uh-huh came from the other end of the phone.
"The nanny called and said that your clothes have been washed. Do you want someone to take it to
your grandfather’s, or you want to pick it up by yourself?" Sean asked.
Emma immediately became nervous, and said, "Don't send it to my grandpa’s. I'd better go and take it
by myself when I have time."
"OK……"
After Sean finished his brief words, he hung up the phone.
Emma stared at the phone blankly.
A few seconds later, the barking dog pulled her back from her thoughts.
She lowered her head and realized that the dog collar was opened.
Nunu regained freedom, and was trying to rub against a street light pole happily.
She held down Nunu in one hand, then she squatted down, and grabbed one of its ears, "don't run
away!"
After that, regardless of the resistance of Nunu, she fastened the dog collar.
After fixing the collar, she had the dog leash on her wrist again, clapped her hands and got up.
However, before straightened her waist, she felt a sudden pain...
Sean's car parked by a roadside in front of Lijing International Building.
Just finishing smoking a cigarette, a slender woman walked out of the building.
She looked around, her eyes fixed on his black Bentley.
Rachel opened the door of the co-pilot from the outside and sat up.
Rachel was very sexy that day. She was wearing in a short fur coat over her deep V bright blue dress,
holding a silver hand bag. A diamond bracelet on her wrist was shining brightly by the street light. Her
hair was also shaped into a single big wave.
She just came out from the birthday party of a socialite.
"Are you calling me?"
Rachel fastened herself a seat belt while looking back at the mobile phone in Sean's hand, and asked
him with a smile.
Sean did not answer, put the phone down, and asked tonelessly, "Are you cold?"
"I am fine."
Rachel smiled gently, and said, "Let's go, my mother told the nanny to cook your favorite dish. She
can’t wait to meet you."
"OK."
After the conversation, Sean started the car.
...
Emma squatted on the ground with one hand clutching her belly. The pain brought her out in a cold
sweat on her forehead.
Nunu squatted quietly beside her, watching Emma. It barked once in a while because it felt dissatisfied
of being tied.
Emma tried to get up again, but she still ended in failure.
She had never had such a severe pain before, and she couldn't even tell where the pain came from.
Taking a deep breath, she shivered and took out her phone and called Joey.
The call was made, but it could not get through.
She threw the phone on the ground, the cold sweat on her forehead had dripped. She suffered from
dizziness and blurred vision.
Traffic zoomed past her and a familiar black Bentley was passing by.
Finally she couldn’t bear the pain, and she knelt on the ground...
...
Sean was not driving fast with soft music playing, and Rachel was closing her eyes and leaning the co-
pilot to rest.
There was a dog under the street light not far away, which was not conspicuous.
It was just a woman squatting on the ground, while the husky on the side was sticking out the tongue,
looking left and right.
Sean wiped out the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray.
Looking up again, the woman and the dog had been left far behind his car.
Rachel couldn't help coughing, adjusted her sleeping position with her eyes closed.
And the next moment, Sean seemed to think of something.
Just now, the dog under the street light...
...
Sean jammed on the brakes.
Rachel’s head leaned forward because of inertia.
Opening her eyes, she looked at Sean curiously, and asked, "Sean, what's wrong?"
Sean was calm, then he said, "I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do, so I can’t keep
you accompany to have dinner. Tell your mother, I am sorry."
Rachel was stunned.
A moment later, she frowned but her tone was still gentle.
"Okay, go ahead and I'll take a taxi and go back by myself."
Sean didn't say anything, turned his head and watched Rachel unfasten the seat belt and got out of the
car.
After Rachel got into a taxi nearby, Sean turned around.
