Emily Parker was just about to send a message to Carlos.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door. It was Mrs. Carter.
Her heart tightened abruptly. In a panic, her gaze quickly swept over the glaring divorce agreement on the table. Almost reflexively, Emily hurriedly grabbed it and stuffed it into the drawer.
In this household, Mrs. Carter had always been very considerate towards her. She was the elder Emily was closest to and the one she least wanted to hurt.
The marriage crisis between her and Carlos felt like a heavy stone pressing on her heart.
Emily thought to herself, once Mrs. Carter recovered completely, she would find a suitable time to confess, so the damage could be minimized.
"Emily, there's a gentleman named William here to see you."
Mrs. Carter's voice came from outside the door, gentle and with a hint of confusion.
Emily paused slightly. William?
Why did he come all of a sudden?
Countless questions flooded her mind.
