Abandoned Me at Last

Chapter 7

While holding Grace's hand to walk forward, Emma suddenly looked up to find Arthur in front of her. She was a little taken aback but soon she hid her surprise and continued walking calmly.

"What are you doing here?" Arthur asked.

Grace's face was full of indignation. "Do you know that Emma..."

Emma pulled at Grace's hand to stop her from continuing her sentence. "I'm here to see Miss McAdams."

Arthur curled his lips and asked sarcastically, "Are you that kind?"

"Yes, let's visit her since she has been staying here for half a month." Emma's words were full of irony.

As Emma followed Arthur into the ward, she quickly noticed that Aria's face was pale and there was a tetanus injection on her forehead. Aria had lost some weight and did a lot of self-infliction. She had made great effort to stir up the relationship between Emma and Arthur.

"Arthur."

As soon as the door opened, Aria shouted happily. When she saw Emma, her face stiffened, and she asked doomily, "What are you doing here? Are you here to check if I am dying?"

Emma didn't get angry. Instead, she walked in calmly. "I've come to check on Miss McAdams's injuries. You've been here for half a month and haven't recovered at all. Arthur must have felt sorry for you."

Aria's heart was filled with anger. Arthur had been snatched away by her, but she could still remain calm and indifferent. This made her hate Emma even more. "If you hadn't been jealous of me and monopolized Arthur, I wouldn't have been lying here for so long. Emma, you're so vicious. There will be retribution on you sooner or later!"

Emma laughed. Even if there were one, it would not be on her. "Miss McAdams, don't you have a guilty conscience saying that? You've monopolized my husband for five years. It's quite stubborn of you to stay as a mistress for so long."

Aria was so angry that her face turned red. Being mocked by Emma made her even more self-righteous when she retaliated, "Back then, I was supposed to be married to Arthur. It was you who got in the way by forcing my mother to death. What right do you have to accuse me of being a mistress? You're the one who destroyed our relationship!"

"Really?" Emma was frank as she didn't do anything wrong. "If Arthur didn't forget me, do you think he would fall in love with you? Aria, you've pretended to be me for five years and lived under my shadow. What rights do you have to say that I'm the one who got in the way of your relationship with Arthur? If you didn't lie, he would never look at you seriously!"

Her aggressive words irritated Aria, causing her to stare at Emma with bloodshot eyes. She had been pretending to be Emma and monopolize five years of Arthur's life. As long as there were tricks up her sleeve, she was not afraid of anything and she deserved all of those.

"I'm pregnant," Emma said. "It's Arthur's."

Aria's pupils contracted, and she started to scream in anger. She picked up an item near her and threw it at Emma. Fortunately, Emma dodged quickly to avoid getting hit.

"Emma, go to hell! You'll die a tragic death!" Aria was completely hysterical.

Arthur heard the commotion in the ward and barged in immediately. Aria was very agitated. Seeing Arthur entering the ward, she cried, "Arthur, ask Emma to leave. I don't want to see her. She is too cruel. I don't want to see her."

Arthur's expression changed drastically as he asked, "What did you do to Aria?"

"I didn't do anything. I just told her that I was pregnant."

Her words caused an uproar, shocking Arthur greatly. He did not expect that Emma would be so calculative as to secretly get pregnant.

Grabbing Emma's hand, Arthur said coldly, "Go out with me!"

Emma followed Arthur calmly without panic, and her reaction irritated Arthur. Arthur didn't like Emma playing tricks, especially getting pregnant right under his nose. He asked in a low voice, "How did you get pregnant with my child? What did you do?"

Emma covered her stomach. "I've said that I wanted a child, naturally I have a way to do so. Don't worry, I'll personally take care of myself before it's born. There's no need for you to worry at all."

"Emma!"

Arthur roared out, staring at her with angry eyes. "You didn't ask for my permission to have a child and suddenly you are pregnant. Do you intend to use the child to entrap me so that there is no divorce between us?"
