Billionaire's Reborn Baby novel Chapter 174

Emily stayed in the studio for two hours in the afternoon. After she sent the three old men away, she finally had an opportunity to lie on the bed and sleep for a while. Last night, in order to appease Vincent, she did not sleep well. She held Vincent gently and combed his hair with her hand. She did not stop even if she was half asleep.

It was easy to have nightmares when taking a nap. However, Emily slept soundly because she had been exhausted recently. When she woke up, she found that it was already dark, and there was a missed call.

She took a sip of water before dialing it back.

Sydnee's voice came from the other end of the phone. She said, "Am I disturbing you?"

"No. I took a nap, so I didn't hear you. What's wrong?" Emily asked.

Sydnee sighed in frustration, saying, "I don't know who to talk to. After thinking for a while, I decide to talk to you."

"Alright. What's wrong?"

"Marquise said those words at the banquet hosted by the Scavos. My father and grandfather heard the news. They were worried that the Buckleys would do something to me. I've been comforting them. But this morning, the Buckleys suddenly sent some gifts over, which was worth twenty thousand. They are not particularly valuable but were meant to send a message. My father doesn't want me to marry Marquise. He quickly returned those gifts and introduced a man who was also from an aristocratic family to me. The man's family is also in the medicine business. My father told me to go on a blind date tomorrow. But I heard that that man has a bad reputation, but my father doesn't believe me. He thinks that I'm trying to find an excuse to avoid going on a blind date."

Perhaps Marquise had recovered from his injuries these past few days, and was worried about what Eliot had said at the banquet, so he took actions early.

Emily asked, "What do you think?"

"I don't want to marry Marquise, and I don't want to find a random person to get married."

"I'm sorry, my brother..." Emily felt like asking her brother for help, but she didn't want to make him unhappy. Everyone said that marriage was the grave of love. Sydnee and Eliot were the two people closest to her, and she didn't want to hurt either of them.

Sydnee said, "Don't blame your brother. At that time, I was going to let Harold help me."

Emily said, "But this is a temporary solution."

"Do you also think I should find someone to get married immediately? What if that person and Marquise were the same kind of person?" Sydnee was a little worried, but she was more annoyed and uneasy.

"No." Emily walked to the balcony and looked at the sparkling light on the pool. After thinking for a moment, she said, "I want to do it once and for all."

"What do you mean?" Sydnee was surprised.

Emily had just opened the door when she saw Christy about to enter the room in the corridor. When Christy heard the door open, she turned around. Although she looked a little tired and haggard, she still looked pretty. Even without makeup, she was beautiful.

"Send me the time and place of your blind date tomorrow." After that, Emily hung up the phone.

Christy also walked over and covered her mouth to yawn. The corners of her eyes were a little red, as if she had cried outside. However, it didn't look very obvious.

"What happened to you? May I help you?" Emily walked over and asked.

Christy glanced at Emily and shook her head.

"Did you have dinner?" Emily asked again.

Christy actually didn't have dinner. Apart from drinking some water, she didn't eat anything these past two days. However, she still nodded and forced a smile, saying, "Yes, I did. Thank you. I'm going to sleep. I'm a little tired."

The robot in Christy's bag poked its head and jumped onto Emily while Christy closed the door.

Christy was anxious, and she did not notice it. She went into the bathroom to take a bath, then dried her hair. It took her more than an hour to get out. When she came out, she was very tired and fell asleep as soon as she lay on the bed.

Emily carried the robot back to her room and asked, "What's wrong, Trevor? Do you have something to say to me?"
