A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 117 He Is The Father Of The Child

Jacob lowered his voice and asked," What's the matter?"

"Something happened to Rita. I'll go and have a look," replied Emily.

"Isn't David there? How can you help?"

"She's my best friend. I'll go to see her whether David is there or not!" Without a conscious thought, Emily got excited. Perhaps, it was because she cherished her friendship with Rita a lot more, after being betrayed by her ex-lover and friend.

"I'm not forbidding you to go there. Why are you speaking up to me!" Jacob flicked her forehead and added," I'll take you there."

Emily rubbed her aching forehead. Feeling embarrassed, she stuck out her tongue and said," I'm sorry, well, and... thank you..."

However, before Emily could finish, Jacob flicked her forehead again, and said," Silly girl."

...

Soon, Emily and Jacob arrived at the hospital where Rita was. When they got there, Rita was awake, and she was being taken out of the observation room.

"Rita, are you OK?" asked Emily, as she looked at Rita's pale face and could not help feeling distressed.

"Nothing serious." Rita replied, but her voice sounded feeble.

Emily felt more distressed. She asked worriedly," Where is David? Why isn't he here at this moment?"

"He was got caught up with something important," replied Rita.

"What could be more important than you?

!" Emily was furious at David's irresponsible behavior. How could he leave Rita in the hospital alone!

Rita closed her eyes slowly and said," It doesn't matter. I am just being optimistic. Maybe he's not here not because of work, but because he was in a car accident."
