The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 559

Chapter 559 Confess the Truth

Tom bit his lip, finally giving in to the pressure, and spoke in a shaky voice.

"Emily, if I'd known borrowing money would be such a hassle, I wouldn't have asked you!"

"Don't sweat it. I can handle it."

Hearing Tom say "I can handle it" was a rare thing.

Seeing him so scared now, Emily couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction.

Now, Emily waited for Tom to reveal his true reason for coming.

Meanwhile, Candice was just as nervous as Tom.
