After Having a Dream, I Became Pregnant with a Billionaire’s Child

18: Chapter 18 Saying Goodbye to Everything in the Past 18: Chapter 18 Saying Goodbye to Everything in the Past Seeing Emily Parker being so obedient, Sophie Parker wore a victorious smile, thinking she could compete with her reborn self, Emily was far from her league.

Slap—

A crisp and loud slap landed on Sophie Parker’s face, leaving her stunned.

By the time she reacted, she realized she had been slapped by Emily.

“Emily Parker, how dare you hit me!”

Sophie wanted to hit back, but as soon as she raised her hand, her wrist was grabbed by Emily, immobilized completely.

Adam Willow stepped forward to persuade Emily, “Emily, don’t be rash.”

Emily let go of Sophie, and with a backhand, slapped even harder.

Slap—

This slap was on Adam Willow’s face.

“Adam Willow, you’re so despicable.”

Emily spat out the words and walked away quickly, no longer paying any attention to the despicable couple.

Adam Willow was frozen in place; this was the first time he had seen Emily strike someone.

Even when she was bullied by the school tyrant in middle school, she had never fought back.

He always thought Emily was as meek as a rabbit, but he didn’t anticipate that a rabbit cornered would bite back.

Sophie Parker, having been smacked, cried out furiously.

Ignoring Adam’s attempts to stop her, she went to settle the score with Emily.

“Dad, Mom!

You must stand up for me!”

Sophie Parker stormed into the house, immediately tattling.

At this moment, Emily Parker, with her luggage in tow and an eco-friendly bag in hand, walked out.

Her eyes were red and the tip of her nose swollen; she looked as if she had cried a lot, invoking pity.

“Emily Parker, who are you trying to show that pitiful face to?”

Sophie became even angrier seeing Emily’s state.

“What else do you want?

You know very well the depth of feelings Adam and I share, and yet you still got involved with him.”

“Emily, it’s not what you think.”

Adam Willow wore an uncomfortable expression.

“Adam Willow, do you dare say there’s nothing between you and her?”

Adam Willow fell silent; indeed, his relationship with Sophie Parker was ambiguous.

Sophie was charming and playful, while Emily was understanding and sensible; he found it hard to choose.

“Brother Adam isn’t yours to claim, he’s single, and so am I.

You’ve known him for over a decade and he’s never liked you.

It’s your own fault.”

“Enough!”

Father Parker couldn’t stand it any longer.

He knew all too well that his younger daughter was domineering and his elder daughter was a pushover.

If Emily wasn’t truly forced to her limits, she wouldn’t be moving out.

The idea of his two daughters falling for the same man spelled endless trouble if they continued living together.

Mrs.

Parker sat to the side, anxious, constantly giving Sophie Parker meaningful glances—glances that Sophie purposely ignored.

“I can’t stay in this house anymore, I want to move out.

Before I leave, I want to take some things my mother left behind.”

Emily Parker’s face was filled with sorrow.

Without waiting for Father Parker to speak, Mrs.

Parker jumped in first.

Pointing at Emily’s nose, she began to scold,

“All these years, you’ve lived off us and used what’s ours; do you still have the face to take things?”

Mrs.

Parker looked at her daughter, her face swollen, her gaze at Emily full of hatred as if she wanted to devour her.

Emily’s deceased mother had only left a few tens of thousands of yuan, along with some health supplements, which she and Father Parker had long since consumed.

“I haven’t freeloaded off the family; my mother left enough living expenses for you when she died.

I can forgo everything else, but I want that family Traditional Chinese medicine clinic.

My mother made a will stating that the clinic, which she bought before the marriage, was pre-marital property meant for me to inherit, but only after I turned twenty-five.”

When Emily graduated, she had already mentioned taking back the clinic but was refused by Father Parker.

Hearing this, Sophie Parker’s eyes started spinning with calculation.

She remembered, before being reborn, the clinic never passed into Emily’s hands.

When Sophie married, Mrs.

Parker had covertly transferred ownership to Sophie, making it her dowry.
