After Having a Dream, I Became Pregnant with a Billionaire's Child-Chapter 207 - 202 Emily Parker’s Doubt

Carlos quickly recalled the way Emily Parker was treated by her father, Emily, last time at the hotel. There wasn’t a hint of fatherly love, and his demeanor was full of indifference.

The way he looked at Emily was as cold as if he was looking at a complete stranger, even with a touch of disgust.

That scene made Carlos immediately dismiss the idea of visiting Emily.

Just then, the young nurse beside him continued to speak eagerly.

"He asked Doctor Willow to perform the surgery."

Upon hearing this, Carlos couldn’t help but sneak a glance at Emily standing beside him.

Emily stood there quietly, her expression calm and without a ripple, as if these words had nothing to do with her.

"I heard that the surgery was quite difficult. When Doctor Willow was leading it, the situation was not optimistic and almost failed."

The young nurse’s tone was gossipy,

"In the end, the director urgently brought in experts from other hospitals to help."

"What kind of expert is so incredible?

Even better than Doctor Willow and the director?"

Another young nurse was puzzled and couldn’t help but ask.

"It seems the person is called something like Ghost..." The young nurse frowned, trying hard to remember.

"Is it Ghost Doctor?"

Just as the young nurses were enthusiastically discussing, a magnetic voice suddenly came from beside them.

They instinctively looked up, and in an instant, everyone’s eyes lit up.

Standing before them was an extraordinarily handsome man. His features were deep and well-defined, as good-looking as any idol on screen, with a tall and upright stature, like a supermodel walking off an international runway.

His deep and mesmerizing eyes swept over the group lightly, yet seemed to carry an invisible charm that made the young nurses’ hearts race and a blush rise on their cheeks.

"It seems that’s the name."

Attracted by the man’s charm, the young nurses nodded eagerly, their heads bobbing like chickens pecking at rice.

"That vile woman, truly blinded by money."

Carlos thought back to the blatant insults Emily hurled at the Ghost Doctor in the hospital and felt a surge of anger.

No doubt, Emily must have offered a hefty sum, which made the Ghost Doctor put aside previous humiliations and shamelessly help with the surgery.

As Carlos thought about this, he couldn’t help but glance back at Emily behind him.

What a coincidence, that the Ghost Doctor and Emily would both appear at the Love & Kindness Hospital?

Could there be some connection here?

Carlos was about to ask Emily about it when the head nurses finished their rounds and pushed the door open, coming out of the ward.

"The Old Master’s health has been very stable recently, all indicators are normal, and he’s recovering quite well."

The head nurse wore a gentle smile as she explained patiently, but then, with a hint of regret in her voice, she continued, "However, he just expressed a desire to be discharged."

Upon hearing this, Carlos fell into deep thought.

Mother would be discharged in a few days, and there was already a shortage of caretakers at the villa.

If the Ghost Doctor could make regular visits to Cloud Lake Villa, the stable condition of his grandfather could be maintained there.

But with this, there would be two patients needing care at Cloud Lake Villa, and with Maria soon entering her critical junior year in high school, the workload would be heavy. No matter how capable the housekeeper was, it might be tough to manage everything thoroughly.

Also, his relationship with Emily had reached the point where they needed to be honest with Grandpa.

Recalling how Grandpa favored Emily, treating her warmly, as if she were the real Carter family’s granddaughter while his true identity felt like that of an outsider.

Carlos couldn’t help but furrow his brows, feeling helpless. He and Emily’s marriage was just an agreement, clearly stated in black and white: once she gave birth, they would part ways amicably.

If Grandpa found out about this and reacted with his fiery and protective temperament, it could cause unpredictable waves and affect his health.

Thinking about these challenging and complex issues, Carlos couldn’t help but feel a headache, his temples throbbing.

He pinched his brow and then said to the head nurse, "Let’s not talk about Grandpa’s discharge for now, this is not a small matter. I need to go back and discuss it with the family thoroughly before making a decision."

Two days later, Mrs. Carter was officially discharged. Carlos took Emily along to Eastern Hospital to pick her up.

Carlos hurriedly led Emily to the hospital room door.

The door was not fully closed, and faint sounds of laughter could be heard inside. As soon as they pushed the door open, the loving scene of Mrs. Carter and Evan Palmer talking happily greeted them.

During this period, Mrs. Carter’s health had clearly improved with careful treatment at the hospital.

Her originally slightly thin figure had filled out a bit, radiating healthy vitality.

The usual sign of illness had faded from her face, replaced by a faint blush, making her look rejuvenated, as if she had become several years younger, looking completely renewed.

At this moment, Mrs. Carter was sitting elegantly on the hospital bed, gently holding a bunch of vibrant red roses.

Evan Palmer was standing by the bedside, slightly bent over, with a look of indulgence and filled with tenderness,

"I heard you were being discharged today, so I went to the flower house early in the morning to carefully pick and personally pluck this bouquet of roses, hoping to surprise you."

Mrs. Carter had a gentle smile on her lips and lightly scolded, "We’ve been an old couple for so many years, and you’re still playing these young people’s tricks, aren’t you afraid the kids will laugh?"

Although she said this, the subtle shyness in her eyes couldn’t be hidden.

Emily and Carlos had just entered the ward and, seeing such an affectionate scene between Mrs. Carter and Evan, both their expressions darkened slightly.

Emily’s mind instantly drifted back to a few days ago in the parking lot of Love & Kindness Hospital when she had found Adam Willow’s car.

At that time, her suspicion towards Evan Palmer had grown like wild grass. As if guided by some force, she had tampered with the dashcam in that car, hoping to find some clues.

But after several days, Evan never met with Grace Willow again, and the car had always been driven by Adam Willow, leaving her investigation at a standstill, filled with frustration and confusion.

Meanwhile, Carlos’s eyes started to flicker unpredictably, betraying an unreadable emotion as he looked at his parents.

Just as the two were caught up in their thoughts, Mrs. Carter noticed her son and daughter-in-law had arrived, and her face lit up with a satisfied smile.

"Carlos, Emily, I’m glad you came. Your father and I have something to discuss with you."

Mrs. Carter said, beaming as she looked at Emily,

"Why don’t you and Emily move back into the villa?

It would be wonderful for the whole family to be together, lively and cheerful, and I could better take care of Emily. This child is pregnant, and we can’t have any slip-ups."
