Billionaire's Reborn Baby novel Chapter 197

Jaquan parked his car at the entrance of the cake shop as usual. The lady of the shop made three cakes for him without asking him. Then, she said with concern, "The temperature has cooled down recently. Please remind Stony to add clothes. He just wore one at noon when I saw him. It's too thin. Take good care of him."

Jaquan smiled and said, "Got it."

It was strange. Emma and Stony were obviously someone who had nothing to do with him. For some reason, they had been getting along like a family these past few days. Even the owner of the cake shop at the entrance would show some concern about them when she saw him.

Jaquan carried the cake and walked to the door. Just as he entered the password, the door opened. Stony looked at him happily, "Mr. Jaquan, good evening!"

"Good evening." Jaquan handed Stony the cakes in his hand. "Are you hungry? This is for you."

Stony took his slippers for him first, then took his briefcase and put it on the shorter table before taking the cakes and placing them on the dining table.

Emma could already get out of bed and move about. She planned to go back tomorrow. She had asked Collin and confirmed that she could go back. Unless something unexpected happened, today would be their last day here.

"Mom!" Stony called out softly.

Emma was collecting clothes on the balcony. Jaquan's clothes were basically dry-cleaned or left at home. Anyway, Mrs. Cox would come over to clean up. She would wash the dirty clothes directly in the washing machine. For clothes that needed to be washed by hand, she would wash them by hand and hang them up. After the clothes were dry, Jaquan could directly take them off and put them on after shaking them.

However, Mrs. Cox did not come these two days. Maybe because what she had seen last time was too shocking or because of something else. When Emma got out of bed, she saw there was a basket of clothes beside the washing machine, which belonged to Jaquan.

After thinking for a while, she sorted the clothes and threw them into the washing machine if they could be washed by machine. If not, she washed them by hand in the bathroom. She knew that Jaquan liked to spray perfume on his shirts. So, she would spray some perfume on his collar the last time she washed his clothes. Then, she wrung the clothes dry and hung them on the balcony after shaking them.

After Jaquan changed his shoes and entered, he saw Emma tiptoeing on the good foot. She was taking his clothes. She carefully shook each of his shirt and his trousers and then put them on her arm.

Jaquan stared at her in a daze for a moment. The scene in front of him was somewhat subtle, causing him to have an indescribable restlessness in his heart. Emma's curved figure reminded him of what had happened on the flowing platform a few days ago. He remembered the warm leg, the back neck filled with the fragrance of bath gel, and the restlessness that shouldn't belong to him when he pressed her to pick up the bowls and chopsticks on the cabinet.

Hearing the commotion, Emma looked in this direction and helplessly smiled at Stony, "I see."

Jaquan came back to his senses and strode over. He took the clothes on her arm and reached out to take the one on the top, "I'll do this. Your leg just recovered. Don't fall again."

He wanted to care about her. But for some reason, his tone changed as he spoke, as if he didn't want her to stay here. Emma didn't say anything, and her expression didn't change. Jaquan couldn't see through what she was thinking. So, he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. Why was he annoyed? He was annoyed that he had said the wrong thing, and he was even more annoyed that this woman did not react at all.

He threw the clothes in his arms into the cloakroom, then went to the bathroom to take off his watch and loosen his tie. When he came out, Emma and Stony had already entered the room.

Jaquan sat on the sofa alone, eating the pancake. He turned the TV to the channel that was playing Tom and Jerry. As he was eating, he glanced at the door of the guest room.

However, Emma, who usually sat on the sofa and watched TV with him, did not come out today. Jaquan finished eating a piece of pancake and paced to the door. At this time, Stony came out and held a garbage bag in his hand. Seeing Jaquan, he kindly called out, "Mr. Jaquan."

Jaquan vaguely said "yes", and saw Emma cleaning up.

What was she cleaning?

She cleaned up the rubbish in the room, put everything back in place, and even washed their slippers. Today, Emma and Stony all wore their own shoes, and the soles of their shoes were cleaned.

"You don't have to clean up. Tomorrow, a servant will come to do it." Jaquan said impatiently. He didn't know if he couldn't bear to see her like that, or if he couldn't bear that she was leaving tomorrow but couldn't wait to start packing tonight.

Emma nodded and finally stopped packing. She came out and had a drink. Then, she sat on the sofa and watched Tom and Jerry.

Stony sat on the sofa to meditate after putting the garbage bag in the porch. Jaquan watched Tom and Jerry for a moment, and then glanced at Emma. She was in a good mood tonight. When she saw funny scenes, she would purse her lips and smile. Jaquan felt upset somewhat.

He looked at Stony and suddenly asked, "What the hell are you doing?"

Stony didn't open his eyes.

Emma also remained silent. Jaquan gently touched Stony's shoulder. "Are you practicing?"

Stony nodded, "Yes."

"..."

Jaquan fell silent again. The mother and the son were both so baffling.

His phone suddenly rang. It was Armando.

Jaquan never wanted to receive another call from Armando in his life. So, he decisively refused to answer. However, a few seconds later, the other party changed an unfamiliar number and called him again.

Jaquan guessed that this unfamiliar number was Janessa's and reached out to answer the phone.

As he expected, it was Janessa. Janessa came straight to the point and asked, "I heard that Emma is staying at your place?"
