The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 351 Attitude Changes

Veda was taken aback by the way Daniel referred to Emily. She wiped the tears from her eyes and stood up, looking at Daniel with a clear expression.

Daniel seemed to understand what Veda wanted to ask.

He hesitated for a moment before speaking. "I know she doesn't have feelings for me. I'll try to move on."

Veda was too exhausted to care about all the romantic drama.

Her gaze dropped, and she noticed a pack of cigarettes almost falling out of Daniel's pocket. She blinked and reached out her hand, signaling for him to give her one.

The New Year was approaching.

People in Emerald City were busy every day, caught up in the hustle and bustle.

But in the homes of the city's elite, chaos reigned, like a never-ending drama. Once Veda understood this, she couldn't help but laugh.

Smoke swirled in front of Daniel's eyes. The cold wind blew, clearing his mind, and he looked over at Veda.

Veda's way of smoking was practiced, as if she had done it many times before.

Of course, Daniel knew Veda smoked; otherwise, he wouldn't have offered her a cigarette.

"Can you tell me now what's going on?" he asked.

When it came to her family's mess, Veda didn't even know where to start. She felt deeply embarrassed, and the thought of it made her nose tingle and tears well up again.

But she eventually told Daniel everything.

Daniel was shocked and taken aback. What surprised him even more was that his first reaction was to worry about Veda, not Emily.
