After Having a Dream, I Became Pregnant with a Billionaire's Child-Chapter 50 - He Left Her Behind
50: Chapter 50 He Left Her Behind
50 -50 He Left Her Behind
Carlos often got into fights when he was in elementary school, and his father, Evan Palmer, was extremely strict with him, sending him to a boys’ school abroad at an early age for a military style of management.
During his first six months abroad, Carlos was bullied nearly every day by local students simply because he was a foreigner…
Thinking back to those old memories, a shadow crept over Carlos’s brows.
Emily Parker sneakily glanced back at Carlos.
Even with a mask on, the man’s nose was prominent and his profile excessively handsome.
“So he was sent abroad in middle school by his family, that’s somewhat similar to me.”
Emily Parker couldn’t help but remember how she lost her dearest ones when she was in middle school and was sent to the unfamiliar Capital.
While Emily Parker was lost in thought, a group of people approached, a group of young college men chatting and laughing.
With the crowd being too large, Emily Parker was squeezed to the side of a stall, and Carlos immediately pulled her over and protected her behind him.
“What, blind?!”
Carlos glared fiercely at the few college men,
At this moment, Carlos wasn’t the elegant young master he was during the day; instead, he exhibited a chilling aura, like a wolf king protecting its cub.
The few were terrified by Carlos’s intimidating gaze and quickly apologized, keeping their distance.
Not far away, several college girls happened to witness this scene.
“Wow, so cool, that man’s boyfriend power is through the roof.”
“That girl is so lucky, they both wear masks.
That man is so handsome even with a mask, could he be a celebrity?”
“It’s really possible, I heard our University Town often has film crews come for locations.
Maybe they’re a celebrity couple.”
“Rainny, that guy’s figure really resembles your boyfriend’s.”
Rainny White and several roommates came to the food street for dinner, overhearing their conversation nearby.
Rainny White couldn’t see, so she could only listen to her roommates chattering beside her.
“It must just be a resemblance, Brother Carter has been very busy lately, he should still be working overtime.
Moreover, Brother Carter isn’t fond of street food.”
Rainny White said with a smile, having contacted Brother Carter recently, he always said he was busy.
However, she didn’t think too much about it, after all, not long ago, Brother Carter helped her buy a lot of pretty clothes.
Thinking of Brother Carter, Rainny White’s heart was sweet.
But she didn’t notice that not far behind her, a few fashionably dressed female students were staring maliciously at Rainny White in the crowd.
Emily Parker was shielded in Carlos’s arms, smelling the faint scent of his minty aftershave, her heart beating thumpingly, as if she were hiding a rabbit inside.
She whispered a thank you and was about to wriggle out of Carlos’s arm, when suddenly, her hand was pulled.
Carlos’s hand was large and warm, holding her soft small hand.
“There are lots of people here, follow me.
What do you want to eat?
I’ll buy it for you.”
Carlos’s voice came from above her head.
Emily Parker was stunned and momentarily forgot to pull her hand away.
Carlos pulled her along, navigating through the food street in search of small eateries.
They wandered amidst the college students, and looked no different from those college couples on dates,
“A date?”
When this thought crossed Emily Parker’s mind, she startled herself,
Was she on a date with Carlos?
“Why not simply buy this food street?
Next time Emily Parker wants to come eat, we can just clear it out.”
Carlos thought to himself, vigilantly protecting Emily Parker, isolating her from those around her.
Emily Parker secretly looked at Carlos, his expression naturally holding onto her hand, their fingers intertwined.
She had held hands with Adam Willow before, it was just once when crossing the street; Adam thought she was walking too slowly, so he took her hand.
However, Adam Willow’s hand, which often held surgical tools, was cold to the touch, unlike Carlos’s warm hand.
The two walked all the way to a diner Emily Parker used to frequent.
“This is the place.
Let’s get the pickled cabbage fish and spicy duck blood and beef tripe stew.
The pig intestines and duck blood in their spicy stew are especially delicious.”
Emily Parker’s eyes shimmered with excitement. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Back when Adam Willow was still studying at Capital Medical College, she often came to eat with him, so they were very familiar with this diner.
Carlos’s brows visibly knotted.
He grew up abroad and never developed a taste for offal.
His steps were stiff, but he let Emily Parker drag him into the small restaurant.
As soon as Emily Parker sat down and took off her face mask, sipping some tea,
the owner recognized her,
“Isn’t this Miss Parker?
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you and Doctor Willow.
Are you here for the spicy stew and pickled cabbage fish again?
Same as before, no garlic, no cilantro?”
Carlos paused in the act of removing his mask.
Adam Willow again?
Sitting across from him, Emily Parker gave a slightly guilty smile, pretending not to see the dagger-like gaze the man opposite cast upon the owner.
Only then did the owner belatedly realize that the man Emily Parker brought today was wearing a mask.
Although he couldn’t see the face clearly, just from the shape of his head and his presence, this was not the affable Doctor Willow.
Sweat immediately broke out on the owner’s forehead.
Fortunately, Emily Parker was quick to smooth things over,
“Owner, please prepare…
”
While speaking, Emily Parker looked over at Carlos curiously,
“Do you have any dietary restrictions?
Can you handle spicy food?”
The old, hot-tempered Carlos would have flipped the table and stormed out by now.
But remembering the advice his “grandfather” gave him earlier, he understood that women need to be coaxed.
Carlos then dropped a cold response,
“I can eat it, no restrictions whatsoever.”
“In that case, let’s have a mildly spicy spicy duck blood and beef tripe stew, add extra cilantro and garlic, and also get a plate of hot and sour potato shreds.”
Carlos remembered the owner said that Emily Parker never used to ask for garlic and cilantro.
Could it be that her tastes changed after getting pregnant?
They say craving sour means you’re having a boy and spicy means a girl, loving cilantro and garlic, is it a girl or a boy?
Carlos was about to say something when his phone rang.
He glanced at it and saw it was Rainny White calling.
He frowned and hung up the phone.
Emily Parker looked up at him.
The phone rang again.
Carlos hesitated; Rainny White had a very sensible and well-behaved personality.
Normally if her call didn’t go through, she wouldn’t ring a second time in a row, she would wait for him to be free and call back.
Given her unusual behavior today, something must have happened unless she was in trouble.
“Is it something urgent?”
Right after Emily Parker spoke, Carlos stood up and answered the call.
On the other end of the phone, Rainny White was moving fast, her voice tinged with nervousness,
“Brother Carter, where are you?
Come save me.
I got separated from my roommate in the food street of University Town.
I think someone is following me.”
Right after she finished speaking, it seemed she stumbled and cried out in surprise.
Then Rainny White’s voice disappeared.
Carlos’s expression changed abruptly, and he hurriedly left Emily Parker behind and walked out quickly.
