Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 588 Blind Date

Before she called Eva, she was completely lost in confusion.

She kept wondering why Nathan would suddenly propose. He must want to exploit her for free labor!

It must be so; otherwise, why would he propose to her?

This was too abnormal, after all, they were people from two different worlds.

So, after she ruled out other possibilities, she felt that Nathan just wanted to use her for free.

As for the reason Eva hinted at earlier, she would never have thought of it before.

Nathan liked her? She must be crazy to think that, right?

The more she thought about it, the more Emily felt goosebumps all over her body. It was impossible. She pulled the blanket over her head and decided not to think about it anymore. However, at this moment, there was a knock on her room door.

"Who is it?"

Having just finished talking to Eva, Emily was like a startled bird. "It's me."

The voice of Emily's mom came from outside the room.

Emily finally breathed a sigh of relief, then got up to open the door.

"Mom, what's up?"

Emily's mom gave her a glance, then walked inside.

"What are you doing in your room all by yourself?"

"Nothing really."

"Really? Why did I seem to hear voices in here just now?"

Before Emily could guess whether her conversation with Eva had been overheard by her mom, she heard her mom say, "Was it your boss who called you?"

With this question, Emily breathed a sigh of relief again. It seemed that she hadn't heard clearly what she had said.

"No, Mom, where did you get that idea? It was Eva."

"Eva?" Mentioning Eva, Emily's mom became pleased, "I haven't seen that girl in a long time. Is she coming to our house this year?"

"No, she won't." Emily shook her head, "She's abroad now; I don't know when she'll be back."

Hearing this, Emily's mom sighed.

"I do miss her. She used to come to our house often. It's a pity that later..."

At this point, Emily's mom paused, then continued, "Emily, look at Eva. Her family used to be so well-off. They were a perfect match with the Blackwood family. But after the Hansen family went bankrupt, she and that boy didn't end well, let alone you and your boss, the gap is too big."

From the moment Emily's mom started talking about Eva's marriage, Emily knew what her mother was going to say next.

She pursed her red lips and didn't make a sound.

"He's a good-looking man, one in a million. The genes of the children born to him would be good."

Emily blushed, "Mom, what are you talking about?"

"Isn't it? He's fundamentally good and being able to make money shows that he's smart. Such a man is rare."

Although Emily's mom was praising him, Emily couldn't say a word because she knew her mother's character too well. These praises were just a prelude.

She didn't speak anymore, quietly waiting for what was to come.

Sure enough, after Emily's mom had almost finished laying the groundwork, she got to the point.

"But think about it; such a rare and excellent man will surely not lack women around him. Naturally, as a mother, I think my daughter Emily is the best girl in the world and is worthy of any excellent man. But an excellent man will surely not lack women, and I don't want to see you spend the rest of your life fighting over a man and forgetting who you are."

These remarks somehow shattered Emily's perception of her mother.

She looked up, somewhat taken aback.

She had thought she would hear her mother say that because of the disparity in their backgrounds, she wasn't worthy of Nathan, or that he would eventually tire of her, and what would she do then when no one wanted her? Unexpectedly, it was actually because her mother was afraid that she would be fighting over an excellent man with other women. "Mom..."

"Emily, although I hope you get married soon; you still have to choose your marriage partner carefully."

When Emily's mom said this, she couldn't help but gently stroke Emily's head and whispered, "Do you understand?"

"I understand." Emily nodded, "Don't worry, Mom. I will definitely not fight over a man; it's too pointless."

Hearing this, Emily's mom finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good."

Originally, Emily's mom was worried that her daughter would be tempted by that man, after all, such an excellent man, as long as he showed a little courtesy to women, most girls would be tempted.

He was very wealthy, so Emily's mom was very worried that her daughter would also be bewitched by him.

After confirming that her daughter had no such intention, Emily's mom immediately said cheerfully, "Then I'll arrange for you to meet someone else for a blind date."

"Blind date?" As soon as she heard about the blind date, Emily's eyebrows unconsciously furrowed.

"Why do I have to go on a blind date again?"

"Silly girl, a blind date is a good way to replace someone that matches you, so choose a day. Tomorrow or the day after?"

"Tomorrow is New Year's Day; don't they celebrate?"

"It will be fine. How about we just let them come tomorrow? Yup, I'll tell them to come tomorrow; it's settled."

With that, Emily's mom didn't wait for Emily to agree and left.

Emily sat motionless, speechless.

Soon, she thought of Nathan again, then shook her head.

It was better not to think about it; she and him were impossible anyway. If he came to replace her again, she would just tell him clearly.

Thus, Emily made up her mind.

Unfortunately, after making up her mind, she suddenly felt somewhat empty.

'What's going on?' Emily frowned and clutched her chest. 'Could it be that Mr. Powell really did make me develop feelings for him by making me work overtime? Emily, if that's the case, you're really cheap, don't think about it; you have no chance with him!'

Soon, Emily drove those thoughts out of her mind.

Because she knew there was no possibility with Nathan, so when he texted her to wish her a happy New Year that night, Emily only replied once and then ignored everything else he said.

Early the next morning, while Emily was still asleep, she felt her phone vibrating.

She took a look and found that it was a call from Nathan. Years of work habits made her answer the call subconsciously in her drowsiness.
