Chapter 528:

Stella asked flatly, “What’s going on?”

“Nothing, just that I was going to look for you. I didn’t expect you to call me first and say that we really have a mutual understanding,” Emily replied with a laugh from the other end of the phone.

“Well, I’ll wait for you at home.” After saying that, Stella hung up.

When Emily arrived in the afternoon, Aunt Maya informed her that Stella was taking a nap, so Emily waited in the living room.

When Stella woke up, she found Emily sitting there. “When did you come? Why didn’t you call me?” Stella asked as she sat down beside Emily. She noticed that she had been feeling increasingly sleepy since she became pregnant.

“I’ve just been here for a little while. I didn’t want to disturb you, future mom,” Emily teased, looking at Stella. Stella smiled back at Emily and then asked about work, “Do you have a job now?”

Emily nodded in response. “That’s good. I’ve always felt guilty. It’s been a while since you last had a job.”

“It’s okay. I found one. I’m starting in two days. I might not be able to come here often to chat with you.”

“I’m fine,” Stella smiled.

“Speaking of Damien, I wonder how he’s doing now. Does this guy have a girlfriend? He hasn’t contacted us for so long.” Emily recalled Damien, who had been out of touch for quite a while.

“Okay.”

It took her a moment to get through.

As soon as the call connected, Emily spoke, “Damien, you haven’t contacted me in ages. Did you get a girlfriend abroad? Tell me the truth.”

“Hello, Damien is taking a shower. It’s not convenient to answer the phone right now.”

Emily was startled to hear a man’s voice instead of Damien’s. She quickly checked the caller ID to confirm it was indeed Damien calling.

I’ll hang up. Bye-bye.” Emily immediately ended the call,
