The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 110 Mutual Torment

"Wait, what?" Emily blinked in surprise, caught off guard.

Daniel chuckled awkwardly, but he couldn't hold back any longer. "I know this might seem sudden, but we've known each other forever, and it's crazy that we live so close. Emily, I want to be there for you and this baby..." Emily's heart pounded as she realized Daniel was confessing his love!

Her mind raced, but she knew she had to stop him. It just wasn't possible between them.

Emily had never imagined, nor dared to think about, marrying into another wealthy family.

So she decided to play it cool. "Daniel, I get it. You want to look out for me because we went to the same school and studied the same major."

"And I know you want to be the Godfather to the baby, but families like yours have their own rules. I think it's better to forget it. When the baby is born, you can visit anytime. He can call you Uncle Daniel, how about that?" With that, Emily flashed a polite smile.

"I'll go check on Abigail in line. Honestly, I'm starving." Emily said.

Without waiting for Daniel's reply, she quickly walked away.

She couldn't handle Daniel's feelings and subtly made it clear they were from different worlds; marrying into another wealthy family wasn't what she wanted after her divorce.

But Daniel didn't get it. So what if he was from a wealthy family? He couldn't change that. But he loved Emily and admired her, and that was his choice. Emily needed to face his feelings head-on.

Meanwhile, Michael never thought eating Japanese food could make his heart race. Was it because of Emily again? They were connected. Whenever something happened to her, he felt it.

But why was Emily's heart racing now? Was she getting close to Daniel?
