Chapter 1207

No sooner had Gina finished speaking than the doorbell rang.

Emily picked up Kya, Elliott went to answer the door, and Gina headed for the living room with a bowl of fruit.

Kya seemed to sense Emily’s heartache. She gently stroked her mom’s face with her tiny hand, “Mommy, are you

sad because of Grandma?”

Emily tried to hide her sadness and put on a brave face. “No, we have guests coming over. Let’s go meet them.”

“Okay!” Kya hugged her tightly and gently patted her shoulder. “Mommy, don’t be sad, you still have me!”

Emily’s eyes welled up, almost overflowing with tears. She quickly took a deep breath to hide her emotions.

By now, the entrance was bustling. Bonnie had arrived with her brother, parents and a few other relatives, and was

exchanging pleasantries with Gina. After the introductions, everyone moved into the living room. Gina introduced

Emily to them, “This is my daughter, Emily, and my granddaughter.” “So Elliott’s sister is already married!” Bonnie’s

mom exclaimed in surprise. “The child is already so big, and she’s so pretty!”

Bonnie’s dad looked at Martin and laughed, “This must be the child’s father, huh? Quite a handsome fellow!”

Gina quickly responded, “Yes, yes!”

Martin was stunned. He was already a bit overwhelmed by the sudden influx of guests from the Sullivan family, but

Gina’s introduction of him as Kya’s father threw him for a loop!

Emily felt mortified and didn’t dare to look at Martin.

Martin quickly got his bearings. He realized the Sullivan family was using him as a shield. He put on a polite smile

and started talking with the Ferber family.

Bonnie’s relatives asked, “What do you do for a living?”

Gina immediately answered, “He’s an associate chief physician at South Hospital.”

The Ferber family let out a collective gasp and said enviously, “A doctor at South Hospital, that’s really something!

Emily is so lucky!”

Gina was pleased as punch to hear this and wore a smug smile on her face.

Martin responded modestly with a smile, “I’m the lucky one to have such a beautiful wife like Emily!”

The Ferber family all laughed and the atmosphere in the living room lightened.

Emily stood to the side, unable to join in the merriment.

When the Ferber family went to tour the house, Martin approached Emily and whispered, “You don’t need to feel

awkward. I’m just helping out. Friends should help each other.”

Emily was very apologetic and said, “I’m really sorry!”

“You don’t need to apologize!” Martin joked, “I won’t use this to blackmail you or anything. Trust in my integrity!”

Emily felt a bit relieved by his words and sincerely said, “Thank you so much!”

“I’ve already said that you don’t need to thank me. In fact, today has made me even more sure of my feelings for

you, I really like Kya, and I know you’re

not the type to disrespect yourself. If you’re ever ready, I’d love to hear your story,” Martin said with a gentle smile.

Emily felt like she owed Martin a favor today, and unlike her usual cold self, she chuckled, “I don’t have a story.”

“I don’t believe that!” Martin laughed softly.
