The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 276 Mr. Smith Takes Action

So that was what it was for.

Emily blinked, breathed a sigh of relief, and replied to the person on the other end of the phone. "Got it, Daniel. Thank you for always thinking of me. I'll go get it when I have time."

"Emily, you sound a bit off. Have you been too tired lately? You must take care of yourself and not overwork. Now that Ms. Taylor is gradually getting better, you can actually take a break for a while. After all, with the baby in your belly..." Daniel hesitated, but Emily knew what he wanted to say.

She worriedly glanced around the restroom to make sure no one was there, then said to the person on the other end of the phone. "Daniel, I'm fine, and the baby is doing well. I will definitely protect them well."

Emily was answering Daniel, but she was also reassuring herself.

However, Daniel felt uncomfortable hearing this.

Being a single mother raising a child was really tough. If she still kept the child's father a serect, people would start spreading rumors.

But Daniel couldn't say this to Emily directly, so he just hinted at it politely as a friend.

He gave Emily a few more reminders, and seeing someone enter the restroom, Emily decided not to continue the conversation. "I'll hang up now, Daniel. Thank you."

After hanging up, Emily's mind flashed back to Michael's question.

She quickly dismissed the fleeting hope that had just surfaced in her heart.

The hardships of the past three years had taught Emily not to have any expectations or fantasies about anyone other than herself, especially not someone as high and mighty as Michael.

She turned on the faucet and washed her hands briefly, but unknowingly, Emily fell into deep thought again.

It wasn't until a loud noise came from the door that she slowly snapped out of it.

At that moment, Emily realized that since entering the second trimester of her
