After Having a Dream, I Became Pregnant with a Billionaire's Child-Chapter 240 - 234 The Love of Three People

"I’m fine."

Emily Parker lowered her head slightly, her voice gentle.

Carlos’s gaze unintentionally swept past, just catching a glimpse of her fair and delicate neck.

Emily’s skin was astonishingly good, the skin on the top of her head like the first snow in winter, without a trace of blemish, smooth and delicate, making Carlos’s heart race uncontrollably.

He coughed lightly in a bit of a panic, trying to cover up his loss of composure.

Turning his head, he saw his sister Maria Carter watching them with an aunt-like smile, her eyes sparkling.

Carlos immediately felt a mix of embarrassment and anger, saying irritably,

"What are you laughing at? If there’s nothing, don’t bother your sister-in-law, let her rest more."

Maria mischievously stuck out her tongue, made a funny face, then hopped out of the room.

The room instantly fell quiet, so quiet that they could hear each other’s faint breathing.

Emily thought about the fact that "Blue Sky" was actually Carlos’s alias, and her heart felt like a jar of mixed emotions had been overturned.

Recalling how they had chatted for so long, she had pretended to be wise and given Carlos numerous suggestions.

Carlos must have laughed at her many times behind her back.

As for why Carlos had never revealed his identity... he must have had doubts about her.

Thinking about "Blue Sky" often humbly asking how to make girls happy... there was no need to guess, the wife he wanted to please was certainly Rainny White.

Emily had no doubt about Carlos’s feelings for Rainny, after all, when they were dating, Carlos had openly admitted his affection.

So they were already calling each other husband and wife?

Emily and Carlos had been married for a few months, but she still felt unfamiliar with the titles.

Over time, as Emily got to know Carlos, she gradually discovered that this reportedly uneducated and idle playboy actually had a side unknown to others.

He seemed carefree, but the unintentional display of responsibility and kindness made Emily realize he wasn’t as superficial as he appeared.

However, thinking about Rainny White brought a wave of guilt to Emily’s heart.

In fact, it was she who had separated them.

If it hadn’t been for that accident at the cinema, their confused involvement, and the resulting pregnancy, Carlos wouldn’t have been forced to marry her.

Emily couldn’t help but think of her mother; she was the product of her mother’s loveless marriage with Father Parker.

As a child, she often observed the cold indifference between her parents when they met, feeling heartbroken.

She deeply understood the pain of growing up in a loveless environment, so she absolutely didn’t want her future child to suffer the same fate, didn’t want the child to have a father who didn’t love them.

She never regretted keeping the child; it was her precious treasure, her life’s continuation.

But she did regret agreeing to the secret marriage with Carlos.

Perhaps from the start, she should have kept the secret to herself, facing everything alone.

Emily’s expression changed repeatedly, sometimes sorrowful, sometimes deeply pained, and she sighed inwardly.

Then, she gently shook her head as if to shake away the chaotic thoughts.

She forgot Carlos’s hand was still on her forehead.

Her obvious act of rejection felt like a cold splash of water on Carlos’s heart.

His outstretched hand froze in mid-air, her warmth lingering on his fingertips, feeling as cold as ice.

A surge of anger rose in Carlos’s heart, unwittingly recalling the scene at the school gate today.

Adam Willow proposed to Emily Parker. At that time, he was a bit distant, unable to see clearly Emily’s expression, but there was no need to guess; she must have felt upset.

After all, she and Adam had shared a past, the memories of which couldn’t be easily erased.

Recalling how Emily’s social circle was spotless, without a single mention of her marriage, he hadn’t paid attention before but now realized she probably didn’t want others to know she was married.

She might still have feelings for Adam Willow.

Thinking of this, Carlos felt like a heavy stone was pressing on his chest, suffocating him, his face turning increasingly gloomy, like the sky before a storm.

"If you’re not feeling well, see a doctor. I’m stepping out, won’t be back for dinner."

Carlos tried his best to suppress his frustration, his voice unintentionally cold.

With that, he abruptly stood up, striding toward the door, swinging it forcefully, "Bang!" The door slammed against the frame, as if striking Emily’s heart, and his figure disappeared outside, leaving only silence and awkwardness in the room.

Emily felt his anger, and she too angrily tossed her phone aside.

Emily picked up her phone, intending to delete "Blue Sky."

But in the end, she didn’t delete it. Since Carlos deceived her, she wanted to see what Carlos was up to.

"This cat and mouse game, I’ll play along."

Carlos had just stepped out the door when his phone buzzed; the caller ID showed Faye Manor.

"Hello? Didn’t I tell you to start drinking, don’t wait for me." Carlos’s voice carried a hint of impatience, but he kept walking down the stairs.

The post he shared, aside from family, included friends, meaning old buddies saw the message too.

They taunted him to treat them to a celebration, and Carlos, unable to brush them off, agreed to meet them for a belated bachelor party tonight.

"You finally answered!"

As the call connected, the noisy background instantly filled Carlos’s ears, a cacophony of whistling and teasing.

"Do you remember Rainny White?

She’s the one you asked me to take care of. I saw her at Nightlight."

Faye Manor sounded anxious,

"Several men gathering around her, acting indecent, it looks bad. Hurry over."

Hearing Rainny White’s name, Carlos frowned.

He didn’t have time to think carefully, halting his steps, immediately turning towards the car park, yelling into the phone as he walked,

"Keep an eye on her, don’t let anything happen."

He knew Rainny White was naïve, she’d surely be scared in such a situation.

Inside the bar, where the lights were dim, Rainny White was sitting in a booth, after a few cocktails, her cheeks flushed, her gaze becoming hazy. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

She looked up, catching sight of the men, who had left earlier, now returning, steadily approaching with malicious grins, muttering obscene remarks.

Rainny instinctively hugged herself tightly, shrinking into a corner of the couch.

"You’re alone?

Have a few drinks with us, sister."

One man reached out, seemingly to grab Rainny’s arm.

"Carlos doesn’t love you anymore, he’s married to Emily Parker now, he’s probably enjoying himself..."

Those words pierced her heart like sharp knives.

Thinking about it, Rainny felt utterly desolate.

"Hah..."

Rainny let out a sad laugh, her inner pain overwhelmed her fear.

She stopped resisting, wiping her tears messily, picking up the cup on the table, downing another large gulp, the burning alcohol pouring down her throat seemed to numb her heart.
