The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 119 Court Summons

Emily felt a deep sadness she couldn't quite put into words. She lowered her head and let out a few bitter laughs, almost as if she was mocking herself for everything that had happened over the years. "Emily, what the hell are you laughing at? Lost your mind?" Evelyn said.

"I don't know!" Evelyn snapped.

"Hey! How dare you talk to me like that? I'm your elder!" Evelyn shot back, furious.
