Chapter 535 The So-called Fatherly Love

Time flew by, and before Emily knew it, August had arrived.

The summer heat lingered, but a sudden downpour had cleared some of the oppressive humidity in the air. Emily stood by the window, watching the raindrops hit the leaves, while her mind was busy planning the details of the summer exhibition.

The JM Jewelry Company's showroom needed a complete makeover, and the exhibits had to be carefully selected.

Taking a deep breath, she decided she would go to the company tomorrow to oversee everything personally.

After all, she had been on break for quite a while, and even Penelope had been urging her to get back to work.

Emily gathered her thoughts and picked up her phone to text Penelope, arranging to meet at the company at nine the next morning.

She turned to look at Harry, who was sleeping soundly, and felt a wave of warmth wash over her.

Indeed, this child was now Emily's greatest motivation and her strongest support. Just seeing him made all her fatigue disappear.

At that moment, the doorbell rang.

Emily assumed it was the housekeeper returning from grocery shopping, and with Lexine busy watering the garden, she went to answer the door herself. To her surprise, the face she saw was one she hadn't expected.

Hayden.

"Dad."

Emily's lips trembled, but she finally managed to call out the once-familiar yet now- strange title.

Hayden was holding flowers and gifts. Seeing Emily being somewhat polite, he immediately broke into a smile.
