After Having a Dream, I Became Pregnant with a Billionaire's Child-Chapter 163 - 159 The Carter Family’s Darling
Chapter 163: Chapter 159 The Carter Family’s Darling
The stocks Sophie Parker bought all hit limit down.
Yesterday, Sophie lost around a million, and today they hit limit down again, losing another million.
Sophie felt a bit uneasy and started to doubt if her dream was real or not.
However, Sophie reconsidered and thought the dream must be real, as Adam Willow was indeed as talented as in the dream, and X Research Institute was soon to invest in Love & Kindness Hospital as well.
Maybe her timing for buying stocks wasn’t right; she thought given more time, the stocks should rise back up.
Sophie consoled herself...

Early in the morning, Emily Parker was startled awake by the notification sound on her phone.
She was still in a daze, reached out her hand, and felt around for a while, until she touched a figure that was burning hot.
Emily’s drowsiness vanished instantly.
She opened her eyes and was met with Carlos’s enlarged handsome face.
It was then that Emily remembered that they had slept together.
Ever since knowing Emily was pregnant and had low blood sugar, the doctor had given Carlos a stern talk.
Saying Emily’s pregnancy was still early, and the fetus was not yet stable, she shouldn’t be left alone, and he, as the husband, must be careful and vigilant.
Carlos then had the servants move his bedding back to the bedroom from the study.
Contrary to before, when sleeping together felt awkward, Emily gradually started getting used to having someone beside her.
They both had a decent sleep that night.
Carlos mumbled something but didn’t wake up.
Emily looked at the text message.
"...Your bank account has been credited with 5,000,000.00 yuan..."
Emily was shocked, and her phone slipped from her hand with a snap.
The phone happened to hit Carlos’s back of the head, waking him up sleepily,
"Emily, are you trying to murder your husband?"
"I just received a large sum of money, am I being scammed?"
Just as Emily finished speaking, Carlos couldn’t help but toss her phone aside,
"No need to check.
Grandfather said virtual stock trading was no fun, he said he’d give you some money to try real stock trading.
Emily then remembered that Old Master did mention it once.
She didn’t want to refuse Old Master’s goodwill, so she agreed casually without overthinking it.
"Grandfather calls 5 million a small sum?"
"Just take it, Grandfather treats you as his own granddaughter.
When I came of age, Grandfather gave me a startup fund of 5 million as well.
In the future, if Maria Carter wants to start a business, she’ll also get 5 million.
I was told the first startup fund my mom received was also 5 million.
Within the entire Carter Family, only Evan Palmer didn’t receive a startup fund.
In my Grandfather’s eyes, he is an outsider.
If you think that money isn’t enough, I can transfer 5 million more to you."
"That’s more than enough, the money given by the Carter Family is already plenty."
Emily waved her hands repeatedly.
She realized that the habit of readily transferring money from Mrs. Carter to Maria Carter came from somewhere.
Emily decided that with Old Master Carter’s love, she would invest the 5 million wisely.
Because of her low blood sugar incident, in the following days, Carlos didn’t let Emily prepare breakfast anymore. Every day, he had the servants make different nourishing dishes.
Moreover, every morning he would drive Emily to the small clinic.
"The doctor said your fetus is still unstable.
If it’s too busy at the small clinic, why not simply close it."
Carlos drove Emily to the small clinic.
"With Master Lowe and Senior Sister Long there, I’ve had more free time these days.
I work with Master Lowe, and I only take 10 patients a day."
Emily insisted on keeping the small clinic open, as it was the best thing her mother left her.
She wanted to preserve it.
Carlos didn’t force Emily, their prenuptial agreement already stipulated that Emily had the right to work as long as she kept her health in mind.
The Carter Family wasn’t some old-fashioned family, and his mother, Mrs. Carter, strongly supported women having their careers.
After dropping Emily off at the small clinic, Carlos went to Carter Automotive; after collaborating with ST, Carlos had become busier.
He still had to escort Mr. Smith and his team to inspect Carter Automotive today.
After getting out of the car, at the small clinic, Emily noticed that there were more people than usual today.
The outside of the small clinic was crowded with people.
Ever since the news spread that Emily was "Master Lowe’s disciple," the number of patients at the small clinic had been increasing. freёnovelkiss.com
Emily initially thought it would take 3 months to turn the small clinic’s finances around.
But in just a month and a half, the clinic’s debts were fully paid off.
With the new look of the small clinic, Senior Sister Long also seemed like a changed person, full of energy every day.
But today, Senior Sister Long’s expression seemed a bit grave.
Upon seeing Emily, she pushed through the crowd to approach her.
"Emily, today’s patients are double the usual number.
They’re all holding our numbered tickets.
There was just an argument."
Hearing this, Emily took the numbers from Sam Long’s hand.
Emily, to manage her health, issued only 20 appointment tickets a day.
But today, suddenly, there were forty numbers.
patients, each claiming their number was genuine.
"I inquired carefully; among them were 20 people who each paid 20,000 to buy their number from a scalper.
Infuriatingly, that scalper claimed to be Doctor Parker."
Senior Sister Long said angrily.
