Emily was stunned and turned to look behind.
"Emily, it's really you!" Abigail said in disbelief and strode towards Emily quickly.
Emily stood up and looked at Abigail in disbelief.
"Mom."
"Emily, where have you been all these years? Mom misses you so much." Abigail hugged Emily and
cried with her head on Emily's shoulder.
Bryce looked over and saw a stranger holding her mother. He immediately stood up and ran over,
pushing Abigail hard, "Don't bully my mother. This is my mother. You're not allowed to hug her."
Abigail had no choice but to let go of Emily. She was stunned to see the little man below, then she
showed a shocked expression.
"Emily, this is..."
"Mom, this is my son, Bryce. His nickname is Bryce." Emily immediately picked up her son and said to
Abigail.
Then she explained to Bryce, "Bryce, be good. This is not a bad man. She doesn't want to bully mom.
She's mom's mother. She is your grandmother."
"Grandma?" Bryce tilted his little head and stared at Abigail as if he was thinking about his mother's
words seriously.
Emily nodded and said, "Yes, grandma. Haven't you always envied Lucy for having grandma? You also
have grandma. This is your grandma. Quick, call grandma."
"Hello, grandma." When Bryce heard that Abigail was not a bad person, he immediately smiled
obediently.
However, when Abigail saw him, her expression became even more strange. She nodded awkwardly,
unable to squeeze out a smile.
Sensing her mother's abnormality, Emily gave Bryce to James and introduced James to her mother.
Naturally, James was very respectful to Abigail and called out, "Mom."
Abigail said in surprise, "You're married again?"
After that, she looked at Emily awkwardly. Emily had a child and she must be married again. Could it be From NôvelDrama.Org.
that this child belonged to Franklin?
"It's okay. He knows everything." Emily smiled and explained to her mother.
Only then did Abigail breathe a sigh of relief, but after looking at Bryce again, her expression changed
again. She quickly looked away and said, "Emily, I want to talk to you."
"Well, I happen to have a lot to tell you," Emily said immediately.
"Let's go out and talk! Find a place." Abigail suggested.
Emily thought about it. Joyce's house was not very big, so it was not convenient to talk here. So She
told James and Joyce and left with her mother.
There was a coffee shop opposite Joyce's house. Emily and Abigail walked in and found a secluded
seat by the window and they sat down.
Abigail looked at Emily from head to toe and smiled comfortingly, "You've changed and become more
beautiful in the past few years."
Emily smiled and said, "So is mom. You are younger and prettier than before."
Abigail touched her face and said with an awkward smile, "I'm old. Age doesn't change. No matter how
much makeup I use, I can't change the fact."
"How have you been all these years? I'm sorry. I left in such a hurry that I didn't even have the chance
to say goodbye to you back then." Emily said guiltily.
Abigail shook her head and said, "There's no need to apologize. Mom can understand. Didn't you still
ask someone to send me the money? Thanks to your money, I am able to survive these years."
"What? Is Hunter not good to you?" Emily asked in surprise.
Abigail's expression changed and she said shyly, "There's no need to talk about whether he treats me
good or not. He's younger than me. A young man of this age... is still willing to live with me. Giving this,
he has a conscience."
"Mom, you don't have to stoop to compromise. Is it for the child?" Emily suddenly understood, angry
and heartbroken.
Abigail smiled bitterly and said, "There's no child. That child was miscarried when it was five months
old. He was not too sad and it looked like that he didn't look forward to having that child too."
"Mom." Emily's heart ached even more when she heard that her mother had miscarried and that the
child had not been born. She could not help but hold her mother's hand.
Abigail said, "It's been four years, and I haven't been sad for a long time. In fact, it's good that I don't
have a child. If I have another child at this age, I might not be able to see the child grow up in the
future. All I do is having another child hurt."
"Mom, I've never blamed you. But since you two don't have a child and Hunter treats you like this, why
do you still live with him? Why don't you leave him? I'll go back to Dover soon. Why don't you come
with us?" Emily suggested.
"No, no, no. I can't leave. I can't." Abigail shook her head immediately.
"Mom."
"Emily, I know you're good for me. You'll take good care of me when I go there. But firstly, mom doesn't
want to implicate you. You live a good life. Why should I bother you? And secondly, I can't leave
Hunter. Even if he treats me like this, I still can't leave him. I can't do anything about this. Maybe this is
my bad luck! Besides, he still goes back home and he is still willing to maintain this marriage with me.
So that's it!"
Emily frowned. She really didn't expect her mother to stoop to compromise to this extent. It really made
her sad and angry.
"Emily, your child doesn't look... like you or your husband!" Abigail asked carefully.
Emily was shocked, thinking that her mother saw through the truth.
But Bryce didn't look much like Franklin. Otherwise, everyone else would have seen through the truth.
In fact, she also wondered why the child didn't look like them. And she didn't know who he looked like,
but he was very good-looking no matter what.
"Hehe. Is that true? Maybe the child has a combination of all our advantages, so he does not look like
us!" Emily smiled awkwardly.
Abigail frowned and looked worried.
Emily asked in surprise, "What's wrong, mom? Do you have something on your mind?"
Abigail shook her head and said, "No, no. It's just that this child... He looks good. But... anyway. You
shall remember that you shall not let him participate in any talent show or be a child star. Many parents
like to do this now, making their child a child star. On the surface, they have a good life. But in fact, it's
not that good as it looks like."
"I know. I'm not going to make him a star. Don't worry about that!" Emily said immediately.
She couldn't figure out why her mother thought of these things. Although her son was good-looking,
she had never thought of these things. In her eyes, Bryce was just an ordinary child and would live an
ordinary life in the future.
"That's good." Abigail breathed a sigh of relief.
"By the way, how did you know that I had come back. Did Hunter told you about my return?" Emily
asked immediately.
Abigail nodded and said awkwardly, "He told me that you might be going to leave, so he asked me to
have a meet with you. Emily, are you really going to leave? I mean... Can you stay? We can
accompany each other and take care of everything together in the future. That's what Hunter meant.
He wants you to stay too."
