Chapter 710
Estelle’s face turned cold. “Is it really his? Does he know? How did he deceive you?”
“It’s not Charlie’s fault!” Emily quickly explained, “Estelle, it’s not what you think!”
“So, what happened?”
Emily sat up on the bed and told Estelle everything that had happened, from the beginning when Noreen threatened her, to when she drugged Charlie, got pregnant, and later found out that her mom and Noreen were working together to deceive her
It’s been more than half a month since she found out she was pregnant, and she still can’t decide whether to keep the baby or not.
Twice, she had made up her mind to have an abortion and even went to the hospital, but backed out in the end.
She can’t be cruel, can’t do it
! Estelle listened to her story and was speechless for a moment. She had met Gina before, a friendly and kind-hearted mother. She couldn’t believe she would deceive her own daughter like this.
It seemed that Charlie was innocent after all.
Estelle asked, “What are you going to do next?”
“I don’t know!” Emily looked lost.
Estelle felt sorry for her and said seriously. “Tell Charlie. He’s the father of the child, and he has the right to know about its existence.”
“No, I don’t want to tell him!” Emily instinctively avoided the topic.
Estelle frowned. “Emily, do you like Charlie?”
Emily nodded slowly. “I do.”
With tears in her eyes, she smiled helplessly, “Estelle, I don’t want to like him either, but it’s really hard not
to like him!” Even though she knew he was a playboy and a jerk, when he was gentle to her, she could not resist falling for him.
He would always show up when she needed him the most, giving her warmth and protection, telling her not to be afraid and that he would be there for her.
She fell for him, knowing the consequences.
“You should tell him even more!” Estelle said firmly. “Even if you want an outcome, you can’t just carry his child without knowing what to do.” Emily hesitated, feeling weak and not thinking clearly “Estelle, let me think about it.”
“Alright, don’t worry. Take care of yourself first!” Estelle told her to have a good rest and not think about it for now.
Emily lay down and suddenly asked, “Estelle, are Charlie and Noreen together?”
Estelle thought for a moment and decided to tell her the truth. “No, I heard from Jonathan that Noreen did try to get close to Charlie, but he didn’t pay her any attention.”
“Okay.” Emily nodded, not knowing what to think
“Don’t overthink things!” Estelle said. “If you want to keep the baby, you have to take care of yourself. You can’t keep delivering food. After you’re discharged, you should come back to the Royal Mansion with me.”
“I won’t!” Emily immediately refused “I won’t live in Charlie’s house again.”
“Then live with us”
Emily smiled bitterly. “How could I possibly disturb you and Jonathan?”
Estelle thought of Jason’s place and said gently, “I’ll arrange another place for you in the Royal Mansion. It’s my senior’s place, and it’s been vacant. You can live there.”
Emily still disagreed. “I’ve rented my own place, and it’s fine.”
“Your place is too cold, and the neighborhood doesn’t have any safety measures. It’s not safe for a girl to live there alone.” Estelle tried to reassure her. “Don’t worry, 111 help you pay back Noreen’s money. Don’t push yourself too hard!*
“Estelle, please don’t!” Emily was determined. “You’ve already helped me a lot I want to pay back Noreen’s money myself.”
“Then you have to choose either move to the Royal Mansion or let me help you pay the money!” Estelle’s tone was calm but firm “Unless, you also want to break the relationship with me.”
“Estelle…”
“No negotiation!”
Emily thought for a moment. “Okay, I’ll go back to the Royal Mansion with you!”
