Chapter 448 Sudden Visit

The Pasta Place

This was where Emily and Archibald often came to eat, but as she sat there, her mind was filled with thoughts of Michael, and she couldn't shake it off.

Archibald, always perceptive, noticed Emily's unusual behavior and asked cautiously, "Emily? You okay?"

Emily didn't respond directly. She kept a polite distance, far from the closeness she had shown in front of Michael earlier.

Archibald wasn't dumb. He could tell Emily was using him as a shield.

"You said earlier... Michael made you stay. Why didn't you refuse? You're pregnant; you need to be extra careful."

As Archibald spoke again, a glimmer appeared in Emily's eyes.

She had complained about Michael earlier, but it was just a slip of the tongue. Taking care of Michael was something she did willingly.

Michael had gotten hurt saving her.

And because he was taking care of her, he had delayed his own recovery.

She should be the one taking care of him.

Besides, the baby was already so far along; it wasn't that fragile.

And without Michael, where would she and the baby be now?

They'd probably be dead.

Thinking of this, Emily lost her appetite for the pasta in front of her. She stood up, ready to leave.

"Archibald, I'm really sorry, but I don't have much of an appetite. The hospital... they need me to handle some things. I have to go."
