Chapter 1390 Accident The World Trade Building project commenced.
Tony assembled a construction team and strictly followed the specified materials for production and
installation.
Emmeline came over from home every day and collaborated with the designer on the floor plan.
After lunch, Emmeline would rest at the Transport Guesthouse.
Tony arranged a room for her at the guesthouse so that she could stay there if she worked late.
Janie, the receptionist at the guesthouse, had been absent for the past two days.
Emmeline inquired about her specifically
She and Janic had become close friends.
The front desk informed Emmeline that Janie was on sick leave in the dormitory.
After the afternoon break, just as Emmeline was about to check on her, Janie appeared before her
weakly.
novelbinJanie, where were you these past two days?” Emmeline asked with concern.
Janie’s face was pale, and her lips lacked color.
Her appearance startled Emmeline.
“What’s wrong. Janie? Are you sick?”
Janie looked up at her, her gaze fixed as if contemplating something. Suddenly, she mysteriously said
to Emmeline, Let’s go to your room. I have something to tell you.”“What is it?” Emmeline was taken aback by her expression.
Nevertheless, she and Janic returned to the second–floor private room, and the two girls sat on the
bed.
Janie immediately grabbed Emmeline’s hand. “Emma, I’m pregnant. I’m terrified, and I don’t know what
to do!”
“What?!” Emmeline was also shocked. “What happened? I didn’t hear you mention having a boyfriend.
Is… Is it Benjamin’s? You should tell him right away!”
“If it were his, I wouldn’t be so anxious and scared!” Janie said, almost on the verge of tears.
Emmeline was at a loss. “Then, who is it? Should I ask my brother?”
“Why would you ask your brother?” Janie said, laughing and crying at the same time. “What does he
have to do with this?”
“I’ll ask him if we should go to the hospital or… whether you should get married to that person!”
“I can’t believe you. I thought I had no one to talk to, but you’re even more panicked than me!”
“But you haven’t told me who the other person is. You should get married quickly!”
“We can’t get married.”
“Why not? Isn’t it Benjamin?” Emmeline asked. “You mentioned before that he was going to get
engaged to you
“I said it’s not him!”
“Then who is it?”“It’s… Tony!”
Emmeline was shocked. “Tony?!”
“Shhh!” Janie covered her mouth. “Don’t shout!”
“How could it be him? Are you having an affair?”
Emmeline lowered her voice, never expecting to hear that name.
“No, that’s not it. Tony Janie lowered her head. “I never liked him in the first place.”
“Then why.” Emmeline clasped her hands together. “Please spare me the riddles, Janie. You’re
confusing me.
“I’m the one who’s truly confused. My mind is a mess.”
“You say it’s not Benjamin, but Tony. But you don’t even like Tony Emmeline frowned. “I heard he’s
divorced. Don’t tell me it’s because of you?”
Janie was speechless.
“You’re pregnant now. If you like him, you should marry him quickly. The child is innocent, a precious
life! Emmeline’s face turned red with urgency.
“He did get divorced because of me, but not because we were in a relationship. It’s. It’s…”
“What is it?” Emmeline couldn’t understand. No relationship, yet there’s a child?
Janic took a deep breath and said softly. “I had an accident with Tony!”Emmeline’s jaw dropped in shock. “I don’t understand, Janic. How could you have an accident with
Tony?”
Janie lowered her head and whispered, “We were both confused that night.
Emmeline was completely puzzled. “What happened exactly?”
That night, Janie began. “We were celebrating Benjamin’s birthday. I had a lot to drink, and Tony and
Benjamin were also drunk. So, I booked two rooms, hoping everyone could rest.”
“I fell asleep right away, but later, someone slept beside me. At that time, I thought it was Benjanin…
But when I woke up, it turned out to be Tony. I was terrified. I thought I was finished. I thought it was all
over. So, I grabbed a pillow and started hitting Tony, crying the whole time.”
“Tony was also terrified. I threatened to call the police, and he got down on his knees and groveled
dozens of times. Then, he made a phone call, and Benjamin came over.
“There were people gathered outside the room. To make it look better for Tony and me, we pushed the
blame onto Benjamin. They all knew that Benjamin and I were in a relationship…”
“Later, Tony gave me sixty thousand. Considering the situation in my rural hometown and my disabled
brother, and how difficult my parents‘ lives were, we let the matter pass like that.
“But little did we expect, his wife found out about this. His wife reported him, and Tony was suspended
and lost his job. Later, his wife divorced him.”
Emmeline came to a realization. “I finally understand what Benjamin meant when he mentioned taking
the blame
