Chapter 1579


    "Sup?" Emily asked, her face expressionless.


    Upon hearing Emily''s icy tone, Gina hesitated for a moment before saying, "Did your dad show up at


    your ce?"


    Emily scoffed, "Wasn''t it you who sent him to me?"


    Gina quickly replied, "Your sister-inw is pregnant. If she found out your father''s a gambler, it would


    definitely affect her health."


    Emily couldn''t be bothered to expose Gina''s lie, she just said coldly, "So, you care about your daughter-


    inw, your eldest son, but I dont deserve any concern, right?"


    Gina rushed to exin, "The other day, your father was so persistent. I had no choice but to send him


    your way. You could have kicked him out! With all the crap he''s pulled, no one would me you if you


    did"


    Emily''s voice suddenly choked, "How can I kick him out? Am I supposed to leave him homeless? You


    must''ve known I''d go soft, that I wouldn''t have the heart to send him away, right? Yeah, I''m too soft-


    hearted, always used and discarded by you. I still care about family ties and call you ''mother''!"


    Gina didn''t speak for a while, her voice cold when she finally did, "Emily, it''s not as simple as you think.


    Your father has always doted on you, even more than your brother. So, it''s only right that you take care


    of him. And don''t me me, I''ve never favored you or Elliott over the other. I''d split a piece of candy in


    half for each of you. But now I''m old, helpless, and I can only care for one. You''ll understand the


    helplessness of a mother if you ever have two children."


    "I don''t understand!" Emily''s tears were surging, her voice barely above a whisper, "Even if I have two


    children, I''ll love them equally.


    If I can''t, I''d rather only have one child!"


    "Emily, things are always easier said than done. I hope you understand me!"


    Then Gina gave a sigh and hung up.


    Emily clutched her phone, crying uncontrobly.


    The pain of being abandoned by the people you love most cut deep.


    By the time Emily got home, it was already dark.


    As she walked in and changed her shoes, Shawn emerged from the kitchen, wearing an apron, spat


    in hand. He smiled at Emily, "You''re back. I made your favorite soup. Have a bowl. Oh, and you have a


    visitor!"


    When Emily heard this, she thought it was Charlie. Her face paled and she rushed into the living room.


    In the living room, she saw Estelle ying with Kya, only then did she rx.


    Estelle turned and smiled faintly, "What''s up? You seemed worried."


    Seeing Estelle lightened Emily''s mood, she asked, "Where''s Jonah?


    Why are you here alone?"


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    "He got called away by Charlie; Estelle looked at Emily''s puffy eyes and felt a pang of sympathy, "Why


    are you doing this to yourself?


    You hurt, and Charlie hurts too."


    Emily swallowed her tears and shook her head slightly, "Estelle, I don''t have any other options."
