After Having a Dream, I Became Pregnant with a Billionaire's Child-Chapter 122 - 119 Common Secret

When Emily Parker and Carlos came out together, Maria Carter’s tense nerves finally relaxed.

The police had already escorted the criminals away, and after making a statement at the police station, Faye Manor arrived with her younger sister Liliana Manor to express their gratitude.

"Liliana, this time you must really thank your Brother Carter and Sister Parker, without their help, I really wouldn’t know how to explain to mom and dad."

Faye still looked frightfully shaken, having learned from the police that Liliana had encountered a group of swindlers, who had deceived dozens of victims.

Liliana hurried to thank Carlos.

"Brother Carter, thank you."

When it was Emily’s turn, Liliana seemed timid and dared not to look at Emily.

"Liliana, haven’t you been scared silly?"

Maria nudged her, and indeed, Liliana was stunned.

She remembered when Emily came in, it was like she transformed into someone else. free𝑤ebnovel.com

Emily kicked, sending the man who opened the door flying.

Then another man picked up a fruit knife beside him and stabbed at Emily.

But Emily, with a whoosh sound, dodged his knife and with one swoop of her hand on the man’s neck, he fell limply to the ground... In just a few breaths, Emily had taken down three or four strong men.

If only the other had not suddenly drawn a gun...

Emily patted Liliana on the shoulder, bringing her back to reality.

Emily smiled harmlessly,

"Liliana, the past is the past.

Don’t dwell on what happened in the room."

Liliana understood the hidden meaning behind Emily’s words and nodded like a pecking hen,

"I’ve forgotten it all, I don’t remember a thing."

The two looked at each other, with a mutual understanding.

Whatever happened today in the hotel room, Liliana swore not to tell anyone, not even her best friend, Maria; it was a secret between her and Emily.

Faye snorted coldly,

"Liliana, you’ve caused a big trouble this time.

From now on, you can’t go anywhere except to school.

Your credit card, I’m stopping that too."

Liliana, hearing this, puffed up like a blowfish.

"Forget the rest, but why stop my card? Mom and Dad promised me, as long as I study well, they won’t stop my card."

"And you still have the face to say that? Have you forgotten what you promised mom and dad before, that you would do well in this month’s exams.

And what happened? You secretly went for an interview?"

"In a few days the results will be out, and then you will know. If I have improved from before, you can’t stop my card, and you can’t tell mom and dad about today."

As Liliana talked about the exams, suddenly there was a confidence in her voice.

"You only attend a few classes a week, how can you improve in less than a month?"

Faye shook his head, unwilling to argue any further with Liliana.

Liliana and Maria exchanged glances; initially, they also didn’t believe just a few classes could lead to improvement until they started "The First Online Class."

"I’ll take Liliana to the hospital for a check-up, Emily, you should come with us too."

Maria looked at Emily next to her, worried that Emily might have been frightened, and suggested they go to the hospital together.

Seeing that Carlos and Faye seemed to have something to discuss, Emily left first with Maria.

Carlos pulled out the gun from his pocket and handed it to Faye.

Just as Faye caught the gun, his expression changed.

The gun was heavy in his hand, not a fake but a real one, and it was the latest model from abroad.

"Didn’t expect there to be arms smuggling in Capital.

Looking at the model of the gun, it matches the batch we encountered before."

Carlos thought deeply, stroking his chin.

About half a year ago, during a trip, he had encountered an assassin, whose bodyguard apprehended the foe and found a gun, same model as today’s.

Today, Carlos recognized the gun at a glance.

It looks like he would need to investigate further.

Moreover, he thought of the "friend" Emily mentioned.

His wife appeared to have quite a few secrets on her.

Thinking back to the incident that happened in the cinema, Carlos frowned, always feeling Emily was scheming against him.

But he had investigated Emily; Emily’s background was clean, clean as if it has been deliberately erased... It seems he needed to understand Emily more deeply.

As soon as they got into the car, Maria instructed the driver,

"Go to Love & Kindness Hospital."
