Billionaire's Reborn Baby
Chapter 373 Have a Fever

Tea Manor.

"Thank you for taking care of us during this period of time. This is the rent for this month." Emma handed a stack of money to Wanda Tell who was in charge of Tea Manor. Wanda asked, "You have a good life here. Why are you leaving?"

"Something happened at home," Emma said concisely.

"Well, it's not easy for a woman to bring a child. Has your husband returned from the place where he works?" Wanda asked.

Emma nodded. "Yes, he has. So, I'm ready to go back."

"Alright. That's good. Tell him not to work so far. It's not safe to leave you and Stony at home. To stay with family is true happiness. I wish you have a good time with your family." "Thank you."

Wanda saw two suitcases in the room and asked, "You have started packing your belongings? When are you going to leave?"

"Tomorrow afternoon."

"What a rush! Have you arranged any car? Let me have the driver of Tea Manor give you a ride." Wanda looked at Stony sitting on the stool reading and added, "It's not convenient for you to take care of him." Emma shook her head. "Thank you. Don't bother."

After spending so many days with her, Wanda more or less knew how Emma was like. She nodded and said, "Alright then, go back to pack your suitcase. I won't bother you anymore." "Thank you."

"You're welcome. Come back to have fun when you are free."

"Alright."

After seeing Wanda out, Emma came back and packed some odds and ends. Her hair loosened and a clear sound came from the ground.

She turned around and saw a cherry hairpin lying on the ground.

"Mom, why are we moving?" Stony pursed his lips, looking a little unhappy.

"Do you like this place?" Emma asked.

"Mr. Collin and Mr. Jaquan are here. They are nice to us. Mom, no matter which one you like, I have no objections," Stony said in a childish voice but an adult way.

Emma laughed. "Mom will take you to a better place. You will know some other friends."

Stony turned around and didn't say anything.

Emma patted his shoulder. "Don't lose your temper."

Stony pursed his lips. "You like Mr. Jaquan. Why don't you talk to him?"

Emma was stunned.

"Because of me?" Stony asked.

"What?" Emma was a little surprised. "How is it possible? Who told you that?"

"I heard that when Wanda chatted with others. They said that after a couple divorced, if a single mother remarried, she wouldn't have a happy life and she would quarrel with her new husband because of the child." Stony pointed at himself and asked, "Mom, because of me, you don't want to talk to Mr. Jaquan, right?"

Emma didn't know what to say.

"No. I..." She hesitated. "I..."

"Mom, what's wrong? Don't you like Mr. Jaquan?" Stony looked at her confusedly and said, "Mr. Jaquan likes you a lot. I can tell it."

"What?" It sent shivers down Emma's spine. Stony could tell it?

"When I woke up this morning, I saw him secretly kissing you." Stony pointed at her forehead. "He kissed you here, Mom. It's the same place where you kiss me. You love me, and he loves you." It was said that children's talk was unrestrained. Emma was at a loss, overwhelmed by a burst of bitterness and uneasiness.

"Mom, can we not move?" Stony said like a spoiled child, "Mr. Jaquan will be sad if he can't replace us."

"He won't come." Emma looked out of the window at the pitch-black night.

If he wanted, he would have followed her over this morning, but he didn't.

However, she would never see him again.

"Go to sleep." She blew out the candles.

Emma didn't know whether because the injury on her back was inflamed or something, it was itchy and painful. She endured the pain and took off her clothes before going to sleep. It was as if she had a dream. In the dream, someone gently caressed her back. When she was lost in his warmth, he penetrated her. She was driven mad. She wanted to cry but could not make a sound. The man kept calling her Arabella. She tried her best to shake her head but could not make a sound.

What was she trying to say?

Emma, in a daze, finally remembered.

She just wanted to tell him that she wasn't Arabella but Emma.

Emma overslept for the first time. Stony came in to check her twice and found that she was still asleep. Her forehead was covered in sweat. He touched her forehead. As expected, she had a fever. Last night, she took off her clothes. Leaving her back against the quilt, she felt uncomfortable. So, she threw it to the side. She was frozen, but she seemed to be unaware of it. Because in her dreams, the heat was suffocating so that she thought it was the same in reality.

Therefore, when she was woken up by Stony, she did not realize that she was ill.

"Mom, you have a fever."

"What?" Only when she spoke did she realize that she had a sore throat. She looked blankly at the bed. She was in Tea Manor. There was no hot body beside her.

So, it was just a dream.

Emma was covered in sticky sweat. She wanted to take a bath but she couldn't even get up. Stony fetched her clean clothes. Dizzy, Emma put on them, and then she stood up while supporting the wall. "I'II take some medicine and sleep for a while. Have breakfast with Wanda. When I wake up, we'll leave."

Emma said weakly.

Stony nodded in agreement and helped her to the table. He watched Emma look for the antipyretic clumsily. After staring at it for a long time, she confirmed that it was the antipyretic. Then, she looked for the kettle weakly. Emma did not allow Stony to carry the kettle because she was afraid that he might burn himself. But now, seeing his mother was too weak to lift the kettle, Stony cried out in sadness. Emma finally filled a glass of water and took the antipyretic. Then, she supported the wall and lay on the bed. Only then did Stony wipe away his tears and go out to borrow a thermometer from Wanda. When he returned with a bowl of porridge, he discovered that there was a person standing at the door. It was Arabella.

It was mid-February. She was in a thick coat, with a scarf around her neck. It was as if she was afraid of the cold or she felt extremely insecure. Even she even wore black leather gloves. Every part of her body was covered.

"What do you want from us?" Stony hurriedly rushed to the door and placed the porridge on the table. Only then did he turn around and block Arabella, revealing a guarded expression.

Arabella was a little embarrassed and said, "I ... come to see Emma."

The day before yesterday, Arabella was kidnapped and was put in a dangerous situation. Although it did not cause any substantial damage, it cast a shadow on her. Especially, the three kidnappers died at the scene. For two nights in a row, she dreamed that she was lying in a pool of blood. Everywhere was covered in blood. She then woke up crying and sat there until dawn.

Arabella didn't understand why Emma was so much stronger than her. They both were women. Was it because Emma had a child?

Arabella just wanted to see her and ask her a few questions.

However, she stood at the door for a long time without seeing anyone. After taking a few steps inside, she discovered that Emma was still lying on the bed.

It was past ten o'clock, almost eleven o'clock in the morning.

Arabella asked, "Why hasn't she got up?"

"My mother is ill. Don't disturb her!" Stony glared at Arabella and spread out his hands to defensively block her path.

Ever since the incident in Forest Park, Stony hated Arabella the most. Emma got injured when she saved Arabella, but the latter left Emma behind and ran away alone.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
