Billionaire's Reborn Baby novel Chapter 8

Eliot Britt, the eldest child of the Britts, didn't come home until nearly midnight. As soon as he went in, he heard what happened from the butler. Normally, he would only say goodnight to Emily after taking a shower. But today, he walked straight into her bedroom.

Emily was pretending to be asleep.

Ever since she realized that she was reborn, she had no idea how to face Eliot. In her previous life, Elsie told her Eliot loved her before she died. His words still echoed in Emily's mind.

In her previous life, Eliot had fought with a man for her and was seriously injured, but Emily failed to see him in the hospital before he died.

She felt warm on her forehead. It was Eliot's palm. Eliot stroked Emily's forehead and sighed, "I'm sorry. I'll make sure it won't happen again."

There was a knock on the door from outside. The butler brought in a bowl and said, "Mr. Eliot, the ginger soup."

Eliot turned around and took it, gesturing for him to leave.

Before the butler left, he glanced at Emily who was sleeping on the bed, and thought to himself, 'Miss Emily is getting more and more beautiful. Too bad she was mentally disabled....'

"Emily, Emily? Wake up and drink your cola." Eliot gently shook her shoulder.

Emily remembered in her previous life, whenever she was ill, Eliot would let her drink "cola", which in fact was medicine hard to swallow.

She pretended to wake from her slumber and mumbled, "Eliot?"

Eliot gazed at her tenderly. "Good girl, drink the cola before you go to sleep."

She drank the ginger soup up, which had real cola in it, so it was not so pungent. She finished it and felt warm soon. She lay down and looked at Eliot with sleepy eyes, saying, "Good night, Eliot."

Eliot stroked her forehead and said, "Good night."

As soon as the door closed, Emily opened her eyes. She locked her room from inside, went onto the balcony, and sneaked into the balcony next door.

She held a knife stolen from the kitchen.
