Chapter 77
Nathan still refused to believe that Emilia devoted herself to him for so many years because of such a shallow reason as loving him.
“Is there a need to think about this now?”
Emilia concealed the panic in her eyes for a moment. Then, she shook Nathan’s hand away, turned around, and left.
Seeing Emilia try to escape, Nathan pulled her back with some force. He pressed one hand on the pillar behind her and forcefully trapped Emilia in front of him.
His tone sounded slightly nervous. “Emilia, you say you love me but don’t care when I marry other women. Is that your so–called love? How will you prove it?”
Nathan did not understand why he felt so irritable when Emilia explained herself to Noah just now.
“Is she afraid that the Saunders family will think she’s living unhappily?” he thought.
Nathan asked himself inwardly, “Other than my affection, I have never neglected Emilia’s living needs. It’s also how I behaved from the beginning.”
Emilia only found Nathan’s questioning amusing.
Emilia pondered, ‘Something so serious happened to Jessica, and Nathan never did anything for her. I merely said I liked him, yet he had such an
overreaction.
Do I disgust Nathan that much with my feelings?”
“Emilia, you must give me an answer.”
Nathan’s attitude was as domineering as ever.
Seeing Nathan’s hand blocking her escape route, Emilia took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and gazed at him coldly. “Mr. Miller, we are divorced. I’m not obligated to answer your questions, am I?”
“If you wish to leave the Miller residence in peace, you better answer my questions.” Nathan’s face and voice were tense as he stared intensely at the woman before him.
Emilia glowered. “Are you threatening me?”
Love Returns In Unexpected Ways:
Nathan was silent, but his attitude made it quite evident..
Emilia parted her lips as she hurriedly racked her brain. She lowered her gaze, pondered for a few seconds, and looked up at Nathan once again. Her eyes were clear and honest. “Will you believe me if I say it was love at first sight?”
If Nathan had not noticed Emilia raising her eyebrows when she said this, Nathan would have perhaps believed her nonsense.
“Love at first sight?” Nathan sneered. “Do you treat me like a
three–year–old child? I didn’t even know you three years ago. How could you abandon your identity, status, and connections just because you love me so much?”
Emilia was quiet after hearing Nathan’s questioning.
Regardless, Nathan would not allow her to continue avoiding him. He was strangely stubborn that day and demanded an answer. “Also, you said. you were pregnant with my child before. If you hadn’t taken advantage of me while I was drunk and declared you were pregnant later on, how could you marry me?”
Emilia flinched when Nathan mentioned the aborted child. It felt like her heart had stopped beating, and an overwhelming sadness surged within her.
“You aborted the child as soon as you married me.”
Nathan felt aggrieved. “Stand in my shoes and think from my perspective, Emilia. Don’t you think these coincidences are too ridiculous?”
It was the first time Nathan took the initiative to mention the aborted child, and Emilia finally stopped struggling to escape his grip.
“That child.,” she thought..
Emilia’s eyes turned red uncontrollably.
“What are you trying to say?”
Emilia stared at her toes. Her black heels glimmered somberly, much like that part of her memories back then, which were shrouded in darkness.
and locked away.
The child was gone.
That day, the operating room was blindingly and terrifyingly pale like her face.
>Love Returns In Unexpected Ways
For three years, Emilia could never muster up the courage to recall that memory for countless days.
When she learned she was pregnant, not a single moment passed by without her caring for the child carefully. Then, she heard the doctor saying her child was developing healthily, until something happened the second day.
As she carefully held the railings and walked down the stairs, she accidentally slipped on one of the steps. No matter how tightly she held on to the railings, she still endured a harsh fall.
She was helpless and lost. She shrieked hysterically, but no one responded.
The crimson color of her blood seemed–particularly piercing as it stained her pale skin, which made Emilia lose consciousness.
The baby was gone.
This was the only news Emilia got after waking up.
Following the death of her child, it seemed the secret of why her child. was aborted was also buried away.
She thought this had hurt her enough but did not expect that Nathan’s succeeding words would pierce through her heart.
