The space is all decked out and ready to go, Emily could just move right in
“My bro has a cleaning service, someone comes over every other day. You don’t have to worry about a thing, just
take care of yourself.” Estelle said, “You shoxo.com fast updateuld take the master bedroom”
“Il stick with the second bedroom,” Emily replied, she was just crashing after all
Estelle didnt mind and helped her move her stuff into the second bedroom
The room was pretty spacious, even had its own balcony and bathroom
Once they were settled, Estelle asked, “You quit the delivery gig then?”
“Yep, I did,” Emily nodded, “Just got the office job now, I’m heading back to work tomorrow”
“Health first, okay? Don’t push yourself if you’re feeling sick, Estelle knew that Emily had pretty bad morning

“No worries, my workload’s not as heavy as before.”
Speaking of which, she owed Charlie a thank you for his speech at that cocktail party. Rachel had been laying low
ever since, at least she wasn’t deliberately piling work on her after hours. Emily was able to clock out on time every
day.
“Have you decided what to do about the baby?” Estelle asked.
Emily shook her head, her gaze steady. Tve made my decision, I’m not telling him.”
Estelle respected Emily’s decision, “Are you going to keep the baby?”
Emily looked down at her belly. “I’m not sure.”
She understood what it meant for her to have this baby, but she just couldn’t bear to have an abortion, otherwise
she wouldn’t have waited this long
Emily didn’t want to tell Charlie about the baby, and Estelle wasn’t exactly on board with this, considering Emily had
just graduated and was about to become a single mom, she could face a lot of hardships.
But Estelle respected Emily’s decision and didn’t push the issue.
After getting Emily settled, Estelle headed back to the set. The following week was super busy for her, but if she
ever got off early, she would check in on Emily
She bought a ton of prenatal vitamins and stuff, Emily’s health gradually improved and she didn’t look so pale
anymore
After a few days, Estelle managed to squeeze in some time to take Emily to the doctor for a prenatal checkup. The
baby was doing great, already had a heartbeat.
The doctor let Emily listen to the baby’s heartbeat, she was nervous and clueless, but when she heard those fast
and strong beats, she felt an indescribable wave of emotion
This was the life she and Charlie had created together, even if he would never know.
Emily could keep her secret from everyone else, but not from Jonathan. Estelle told him everything, but made him
promise not to spill the beans
to Charlie.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis was Emily’s decision, they should respect her wishes.
Jonathan was a bit taken aback, his reaction was the same as Estelle’s when she first found out.
He thought for a moment, then calmly said, “I think we should tell Charlie.”
Estelle hugged a pillow, “But Emily doesn’t want him to know.”
Especially after Emily saw how Charlie forced Noreen to have an abortion, she was even more hesitant.
Jonathan held her tightly, looking down at her belly with a mix of confusion and frustration, “Charlie slept with her
once and made her pregnant, we’ve been trying for so long, why haven’t we succeeded?”
Estelle gave a helpless laugh, “Feeling a bit defeated, are you?”
“A bit,” he admitted candidly.
Estelle felt a bit awkward and snuggled into his arms, “We’ve been taking precautions every time, it’s normal that
we haven’t succeeded.”
Jonathan still felt a bit down, “Even the times we didn’t, we still didn’t succeed.”
“Even then, it’s not a guarantee,” Estelle comforted him.
Jonathan gently stroked her hair, deciding to drop the subject.
