Billionaire's Reborn Baby
Chapter 116 It Would Cost Three Hundred

The three of them sat down at the dining table again.

"So you're not his girlfriend?" Mrs. Cox asked sullenly.

Lowering her head, Emma answered, "I'm sorry."

She had no idea about why she had to apologize, but she felt guilty when confronting Mrs. Cox.

Jaquan was literally speechless when he got everything clear. "Mom, are you serious? How much do you want me to have a girlfriend!"

"Shut up." Mrs. Cox was furious. After packing up, she took the key and turned around to leave. Walking through the hallway, she saw the garbage bag that Emma had packed. Mrs. Cox thought Emma was really the best girl she had met in the recent years. Thus she turned around to look at Emma. "Miss, if you want to have fish soup, welcome to come here. I would like to cook for you."

It might be hard for anyone else to refuse Mrs. Cox's kind hospitality.

But Emma shook her head and said, "Sorry to disturb you. I won't make you trouble again."

Jaquan poked her in the elbow and said, "Can't you just say yes? She would go away once you said yes. Now she'll start to preach at us."

Emma's honesty impressed Mrs. Cox even more. She glowered at her son and then went away closing the door.

Jaquan asked in surprise, "Has she left?"

Emma limped to the balcony to take her clothes that she had hung out last night. It was cold now, so the clothes hadn't dried last night. Before Jaquan left this morning, he put her clothes on the top of the clothes horse.

Emma could not reach it with one foot, so Jaquan came over to help. In order to avoid him, Emma moved to one side. Jaquan also stood farther from her so that he wouldn't touch her. But they moved to the same direction simultaneously and as a result, Jaquan stepped on Emma's foot. With the other foot injured, Emma fell backwards. At the same time, Jaquan was about to fall onto her. Emma cried.

Jaquan hurriedly propped himself up on his hands and protected her head at the same time. He didn't hit into her for his shoulders were braced.

They met each other's gaze like they survived from some disaster.

At the moment, Mrs. Cox happened to come back inside for taking the garbage bag. She just could see them from where she stood.

She saw her son almost kiss on Emma's lips.

Mrs. Cox didn't say anything.

Taking the garbage bag with her, she closed the door and left.

Jaquan didn't get any opportunity to explain.

Holy shit! Mom, it's not what you saw! No--

Emma pushed him and said, "Get up."

Jaquan got up and sat on the side helplessly. Then he looked Emma up and down. "Why did she think you are my girlfriend?"

Emma did not respond. She took the rack to get her clothes. Jaquan stood up from the ground and jumped up to help her. The edge of his shirt floated up, revealing the four packs underneath which looked charming.

He took off her clothes and handed it to her, "Here you are."

Emma said yes and went to the bathroom to change her clothes. When she came out, Jaquan had already had his meal. They walked to the entrance together.

Instead of doing the dishes, Jaquan just left them in the sink. Emma looked at them but forced herself to ignore. She didn't have any shoes. Jaquan found a pair of socks for her and gave her a pair of sneakers. She sat on the small stool and put on the shoes. When she limped out of the room, Jaquan was still standing at the door.

"Are you leaving now?" He asked.

Emma nodded.

Jaquan looked at her and said, "I have a golf club at home. Do you want to use it as a cane?"

"No, thanks." Emma leaned against the wall and said, "I take the two hundred yuan on the table." "Then? Nothing?" Jaquan looked at her strangely. "I thought you would say you will give it back later."

"I'll return it to Mr. Armando."

"Holy shit, why?" They walked to the elevator and Jaquan pressed the button. When he heard that, he was outraged immediately. "He left you to me after he sent you to the hospital. You ate in my house and now you wear my socks and sneakers. And the 200 is also mine. So why do you want to give him the money? Plus you even dirtied my bed sheets!"

As soon as the elevator came down and the door opened. There were four or five people standing in the elevator. Hearing this, they couldn't help but look Emma and Jaquan up and down with a curious look.

Emma was stunned.

She turned around.

It was the first time Jaquan saw Emma give in to him. He supported her shoulders and pushed her into the elevator. "Don't be embarrassed, come in."

Emma was speechless.

As the elevator went down, the people in the elevator still stared at Emma and Jaquan. Emma was so embarrassed that she wanted to cover their eyes with cloth. Jaquan gave a smug smile.

Then an old lady entered the elevator. Jaquan took a few steps back, but Emma didn't move. The old lady walked in and stood beside her. She looked at Emma and turned to see Jaquan. As she knew him, so she smiled and asked, "Go to work?"

Jaquan nodded, "Yes, where are you going?"

The old lady answered, "I am going to the park and doing some exercises."

Almost everyone else in the elevator knew each other. They all greeted to the lady. Emma was the only one that the old lady didn't know. She asked her, "Which floor are you on?"

Emma did not respond. She looked at Jaquan.

Jaquan was nervous.

What did she mean?

It seemed like the old lady understood. "Are you on the same floor with Jaquan? Are you new? I know all people on that floor. Which room do you live?"

Emma still turned to look at Jaquan.

Jaquan was stunned.

The old lady understood. She laughed and said, "Do you live together? No wonder you have stood together. You are a perfect match for each other." Jaquan was awkward, "I'm just joking. I don't even know her."

The others in the elevator gazed at Jaquan at once.

Jaquan was so helpless.

He almost forgot, they saw them come down together!

The elevator finally stopped on the first floor. Emma limped forward. The old lady reached out to help her, but she rejected. "Take care of yourself. I'm okay with this." She smiled and said, "That's right. You have Jaquan with you"

Jaquan had no way but to help Emma.

He was obliged to support her out of the elevator. It was at noon, so many office workers had witnessed the scene. They talked to him, "Congratulations." Jaquan didn't understand.

Were they blind? It was nothing deserved congratulations.

Finally, he helped her to the side of the road and hailed a taxi. Then, he pushed her into the car and waved his hand. "Toodles!"

Emma called him.

Jaquan clicked his tongue and turned around to say, "There's no need to say thank you. I know I'm a good man. I always help others."

Emma stretched out her hand from the back window and said. "It was the money. The driver said it will cost 300 yuan. Just lend me another 100 yuan." Jaquan was annoyed.

He never wanted to meet this woman again in his life.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
