Chapter 308: Chapter 311: Don’t Be Afraid, Mom is Here

Translator: 549690339 |

Emily Taylor was by Lily Gray’s bedside all night, not leaving or sleeping.

Just now, she couldn’t hold on any longer, so she took a short nap on the sofa.

But as soon as she fell asleep, Lily was awakened by a nightmare.

Emily lovingly embraced Lily, who was covered in cold sweat and tears in her eyes.

Gently patting her back, “Lily, don’t be afraid, mom is here.”

Lily’s thoughts were still immersed in that terrifying and realistic dream.

Hearing Emily’s words, she seemed to regain some consciousness.

But when she looked at Emily, she couldn’t help but shiver backward.

In the dream, the contempt in Emily’s eyes almost merged with the current scene.

“Lily… what’s wrong with you? Did you have a nightmare?”

Emily noticed Lily’s abnormal behavior and her face was full of concern.

Emily’s concern seemed genuine, and Lily wrapped herself in the blanket, her big eyes on guard as she looked at Emily.

The tears in her eyes were about to fall, and her pitiful appearance made Emily’s nose feel sour.

What a poor child.

Looking at Lily like this, Emily couldn’t help but think of herself when she was pregnant with Aidan Lucas.

“Lily, don’t be afraid… rest assured, mom is here. Did Ethan bully you? It’s okay, just tell me, and I ll be on your side.”

Emily’s voice was gentle, like water, and her noble demeanor faded away, replaced by the warmth and intimacy of a mother and elder.

Lily, looking at this completely different Emily from her dream, couldn’t help but let her tears flow even more.

Suddenly, the Emily in front of her seemed like her deceased mother, filled with a sense of inexplicable security.

“Mom…”

Lily couldn’t hold back anymore, burying her head in Emily’s embrace, pouring out all her grievances.

A moment later.

“All because of this?” Emily was holding back a belly full of anger.

What kind of scoundrel was David Redington? Her daughter-in-law kindly treated his heart disease, and once the heart disease was cured, didn’t he know how to avoid it in time?

“Lily, did you ever tell him that you were already married?” Although she was angry, Emily was also a reasonable person.

She calmed down and wanted to get to the bottom of the matter.

Lily nodded and shook her head, “1 did, but… he seemed to misunderstand and even said he knew about my divorce. Later, Ethan went to the filming location and revealed our relationship in front of him.”

When Lily spoke, she twisted her fingers.

Emily could easily see her uneasiness from this small action.

She couldn’t help but sigh in her heart.

This child was really wronged.

Her son brought her into the family, but never introduced her as Mrs. Lucas to outsiders.

It was only natural that people might misunderstand her identity.

Even if Lily admitted that her husband was Aidan Lucas, perhaps no one would believe her.

“Good child, don’t be afraid. Now that mom knows about this, I won’t let Ethan misunderstand any longer. Don’t overthink it for now, just focus on getting better and giving me a chubby grandson. Come on… lie down and sleep for a little longer. When it’s dawn, mom will take you to the prenatal checkup.”

Today marks three months of Lily’s pregnancy.

It was originally planned that Aidan Lucas would take her to the hospital for a prenatal checkup today.

But now, Emily thought, she would have to accompany her daughter-in-law instead..
