After Having a Dream, I Became Pregnant with a Billionaire's Child-Chapter 200 - 195 The Big Grey Wolf and Little White Rabbit

Chapter 200: Chapter 195 The Big Grey Wolf and Little White Rabbit

Evelyn Hanson on the side could hardly believe her ears. Things had progressed so smoothly, it was like a pie falling from the sky and landing directly on her.

She was so thrilled her cheeks turned crimson, her heart pounding in her chest, the joy almost overwhelming her to the point of fainting.

If she weren’t tasked with continuing to guide Mr. William and Minister James on their tour, she would surely have dialed her friend Emily Parker’s number in a heartbeat to share this immense joy.

Seeing that everything was going according to plan, Emily Parker felt the weight lift off her shoulders, so she found an excuse and prepared to make her exit.

She briskly walked towards the entrance of Eastern Hospital, thinking she could finally end this busy day.

Just as she was about to step out of the hospital, a familiar set of footsteps suddenly echoed behind her.

The footsteps were neither too fast nor too slow, each step seemed to land on her heart.

"Where to?

Let me give you a ride."

Carlos’s magnetic voice came from behind.

Upon hearing this, Emily Parker couldn’t help but twitch her lips under the mask. How could he appear wherever she went?

She inwardly lamented, turned around slowly, and saw Carlos standing not far away, a faint smile on his face, his eyes fixed on her.

"No need, I can just take the bus."

Emily Parker stepped back a few paces, a flicker of panic in her eyes.

She couldn’t shake the feeling that Carlos had been looking at the Ghost Doctor strangely lately, as if he was suspicious.

"No need to be so distant. Technically, you’re my mother’s lifesaver."

Carlos spoke as he slowly approached her,

"I just wanted to ask about my mother’s condition."

At this moment, Carlos’s car slowly rolled over and came to a steady stop beside them.

He casually opened the car door, gesturing for her to get in.

Emily Parker looked at the open car door, hesitated for a moment, but eventually got in with resignation.

Once seated in the spacious backseat, Emily Parker tried to stick to the side, keeping her distance from Carlos.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down,

"Mrs. Carter has recovered enough to be discharged. However, after years of chronic poisoning, even though she’s detoxified now, her constitution is still weaker than most people.

When she returns to Cloud Lake Villa, it’s best for her to rest and not get upset or overworked."

Sitting next to her, Carlos squinted slightly, quietly listening to what Emily Parker said.

His gaze inadvertently swept over Emily Parker, suddenly catching a familiar scent, one very similar to the scent he remembered from Emily.

His heart stirred slightly, he acknowledged with a hum, then asked, "How much would it cost to hire you as a family doctor?"

The question startled Emily Parker nearly to the point of jumping, she quickly waved her hands in refusal,

"I can’t be your family doctor, I mean, I’m usually very busy, I don’t have the time."

Her tone was somewhat hurried, her eyes full of panic.

"Why so tense, the family doctor isn’t required to stay at Cloud Lake Villa all the time."

Carlos’s gaze was fixed tightly on Emily Parker,

"It seems like you really don’t want to see me?"

He squinted slightly, a hint of suspicion in his handsome brows and eyes, as if trying to see through Emily Parker.

As he spoke, Carlos suddenly leaned closer, closing the distance between them.

In the cramped car, the atmosphere became tense in an instant, and the space seemed to compress abruptly.

Emily Parker was taken aback, instinctively pressing both her hands forward to fend off the man in front of her who was full of aggressive intent.

In their stalemate, Carlos’s action suddenly paused, and Emily Parker was stunned.

They both simultaneously realized this familiar stance, no matter how they looked at it.

It was just like that time in the elevator, this close proximity, now once again in the car, this identical scenario left them both somewhat at a loss.

"Emily?"

Carlos stared at the small masked face in front of him, the doubts in his heart growing stronger.

He abruptly reached out to clasp Emily Parker’s wrist, his movements extremely quick, forceful, and brooking no resistance.

Emily Parker inwardly thought bad, but she was quick to respond, immediately trying to break free.

In the cramped car, they parried and dodged each other.

At this moment, to Carlos’s great surprise, he failed to remove the mask from the woman in front of him.

Suddenly, the car came to a sudden stop, startling Emily Parker, she instinctively thought of her belly, her heart tightened and a worried look appeared on her face.

Her moment of distraction gave Carlos the opportunity. He swiftly clasped both her hands, lifting them high above her head.

Emily Parker’s body was pinned against the backseat by Carlos’s other hand.

Carlos reached out to remove Emily Parker’s hat, Emily Parker became irate and anxious, preparing to kick him with her knee.

Just at this critical moment, Carlos’s phone suddenly rang.

It was his private phone, he checked the number, his expression changed slightly, but he still answered.

On the other end, it wasn’t clear what was being said, but Carlos’s face turned somewhat grim.

Taking advantage of the moment, Emily Parker broke free from his grip, and with a "slap", she struck him across the face.

"Junior President Carter, please have some respect in the future." Emily Parker said loudly, both angry and embarrassed.

She called for the driver to stop, and as soon as the door opened, she hurriedly got out and fled as fast as she could.

Carlos watched the woman outside the car window running faster than a rabbit, touching his slapped cheek, his heart mixed with emotions.

Since he learned to fight, how long had it been since someone hit him?

He never expected, of all people, to be slapped by Emily Parker.

"Boss?"

Oliver Ross’s cautious voice came from the other end of the phone, he seemed to have overheard something he shouldn’t have just now.

"You just said, the transaction records of Skysound Studio’s accounts were deleted by Evan Palmer’s people?"

Carlos’s voice was deep and cold, brimming with doubt and anger at this moment. On the day of the arts performance, the company’s finances had issues, so he had Oliver Ross go back to investigate, but the results were unexpected.

"Evan Palmer, what on earth are you up to? Why would you help Amelia Willow."

Carlos’s gaze grew deep and his eyes revealed a chill. If Evan Palmer was too harsh on him, that would be one thing, but if he wronged his mother or mistreated his sister, then he wouldn’t want such a father...

Carlos’s gaze turned extremely profound, and the usual playboy demeanor was replaced by a face of icy coldness.

Emily Parker finally got out of the car, sprinted all the way until she confirmed she was in a safe area, then stopped to catch her breath.

She couldn’t help but stick out her tongue, saying with lingering fear, "That was close, seems like I shouldn’t take Carter Family orders anymore." She said as she patted her chest, trying to calm her frenzied heart.

At that moment, Emily Parker saw a sedan pass by up ahead, the person in the car made her pause in astonishment.
