Chapter 7
When Emmett and I entered the banquet hall hand in hand, the atmosphere was reaching its climax)
He was a gentle and considerate husband, and I, as always, was praised as a gentle and virtuous wife. When greeting others, he held my hand tightly.
From time to time, he would turn his head to glance at me, with gentle eyes and a soft expression.
I would also lower my head and smile..
But in the past, that smile was joy.
Now, however, it was just an act.
despised myself like this in the past, and I also loathed him like this.
Just hoping it would end sooner.
Byt
the end of the banquet, a plate of raw fish was placed in front of me.
A faint smell of blood hit my nose, and suddenly my stomach churned violently.
I got up in a state of disarray and hurriedly went to the bathroom, where I vomited uncontrollably.
When I got up, suddenly everything went black and I fainted.
When I opened my eyes again, I was already in the hospital.
There were many people from the Dudley family, and Emmett was sitting by my bed.
He held my hand, with a rare joy on his face, and said, “Sandra, do you know that you were pregnant?”
“Just turned forty–five days.”
His voice was deep and gentle, as if he was afraid of scaring me with his tenderness.
At that moment, I suddenly felt a bit dazed.
Emmett rarely had moments as gentle as this before.
Three years flew by in the blink of an eye, and it was only a few times.
And during the three years, the number of times he met Jacey was also extremely few.
But every time, it was gentle and considerate.
However, Jacey’s tenderness was only because she was the person he liked.
But his tenderness for me wasn’t out of love.
Now, it was only for the sake of the child in her womb.
“Maci already knew about your pregnancy.”
He held my hand, and the smile on his lips was gentle. “I have already sent someone to pick her up,” he said.
“She was very happy and even cried with excitement on the phone.”
I lay in bed and suddenly tears fell.
After three years of marriage, I did not get pregnant, which was a concern for Maci. However, Maci
was unaware that I did not conceive because Emmett said he did not want children.
I wanted to spend a few years alone with my partner.
He had always been very cautious about contraception.
But why is he so happy now?
After the Dudley family left, the ward became quiet.

Emmett handed me a glass of water and said, “Let’s not bring up anymore.”
“Take good care of yourself and focus on nurturing the fetus.”
I pushed away the cup of warm water and said, “I didn’t want this child.”
There was no trace of emotion on Emmett’s face.
He lowered his head and looked down at me, saying, “You tell Maci yourself.”
“As long as you were willing, Maci, at such a young age, had to be sad for you.”
Emmett was certain that he would continue to compromise in order to prevent Maci from worrying.
But he forgot. When Maci was young, he dared to fight against his parents.
Daring to divorce or escape from marriage, one person ran thousands of miles away to seek ret
with relatives.
After her husband became addicted to drugs, she dared to divorce him decisively and secretly took away their only daughter.
Now she is old, looking fragile and kind, living peacefully with the world.
But I knew that if Maci knew about me and Emmett.
She would definitely support all of my decisions.
