Sometimes, when Yuna thought about it carefully, she found that it was most likely because of Emily that she could hold on in this place.
If it weren't for the little boy, it was very likely that she would have exposed her identity when she was on the verge of collapse.
Once she gave herself away in front of Rowdy, she would not be standing here safe and sound right now. Instead, she would be trapped and tortured by Rowdy in every way.
Because of Emily, Yuna was able to work undercover smoothly until now.
She appreciated Emily from the bottom of her heart.
Because of her sincere gratitude, every time she said thank you to Emily, Yuna would be very genuine like she was facing an adult.
Unfortunately, Emily was too young to feel Yuna's sincerity.
However, the little boy was well aware of his inner feelings.
He shook his head and slightly smiled. He looked like an innocent and lovely little angel.
The little boy looked at Yuna and said seriously, "Auntie Yuna, I promised Uncle Hayes to take care of you, and you told me that I must keep my promise to others, so I will take good care of you and the baby. This is my promise to Uncle Hayes!"
Yuna didn't say anything.
In fact, she knew better than anyone that Emily had promised Wesley to protect Iris and Aunt Helen.
Emily wasn't asked to protect her.
However, after she returned to the Kent family, Emily seemed to have already known her purpose, and he started protecting her.
There was no complicated reason why Emily did this.
The little boy just felt like protecting her.
Sometimes, Yuna would actually forget the fact that Emily was just a five-year-old child.
More often than not, Yuna couldn't help thinking that if she could live on, she really wanted to be there when the boy grew up and watch him do all the important things in his life.
"Unfortunately... I probably won't have the chance to do that."
Thinking of this, Yuna let go of Emily, looked at his young and tender eyes, and asked, "Emily, you'll never hate me, will you?"
The little boy didn't think about it and nodded directly. "Of course not. I'll never do that!"
Yuna smiled. She reached out her hand to make a pinky swear with Emily as she said, "It's a deal then. You must fulfill your promise, or I'll be mad."
Emily didn't wonder why Yuna suddenly acted like this. He made a pinky swear with her without hesitation. "Yeah. It's a deal!"
Yuna looked at Emily. For the first time, she found that she was greedy for this little boy.
She and Emily had made a promise that he would never hate her because she was afraid that when he grew up, he would know her purpose in returning to the Kent family this time and that even if she died, he would never forgive her.
She didn't want Emily to hate her, so she used an underhanded way by making an agreement with him.
Emily had always attached great importance to his promise. She believed that the little boy would not go back on his word.
However, after Emily promised her, she suddenly realized that in addition to never hating her, she wanted to discuss another thing with Emily.
Emily had lived with Yuna for such a long time, so he knew her well. As soon as he saw her look, he knew that she wanted to say something else.
The little boy grinned and smiled innocently. "Auntie Yuna, just say whatever is on your mind!"
Yuna slightly tightened her grip on Emily. She looked at him and said, "I want to discuss something about the baby with you."
"What?" Emily was surprised at first. He then looked at Yuna's lower abdomen and said, "I will agree to it no matter what it is!"
"Shouldn't you think about it first?" Yuna didn't know how to react. She looked at the little boy in confusion and said, "I haven't told you what it is yet."
Emily said solemnly without the slightest hesitation, "I'll agree to whatever that's related to the baby!"
The little boy's tone and appearance were so sincere that it was as if he was presenting his full sincerity, which made people have no doubt in his truthfulness at all.
Yuna's doubts gradually turned into curiosity. "Emily, does the baby matter so much to you?"
Emily still didn't hesitate and nodded hard. "Of course!"
In the end, Yuna couldn't help asking tentatively, "Why is that?"
"Because I like you, and I also like everything about you. That's why I would like your baby for sure!" Emily said it as a matter of course and promised seriously, "Therefore, I will agree to all your requirements about the baby."
Yuna laughed out loud with mixed emotions in her voice.
She couldn't tell whether she felt sad or gratified.
She stroked Emily's hair and said slowly, "Emily, I don't know what will happen in the future. But I'm sure that my baby will come into this world and slowly grow up like you. You're a bit older than him. When you meet him in the future, can you take care of him for me?"
After hearing that, Emily didn't respond and just stared at Yuna.
Unexpectedly, the little boy didn't promise her right away.
After a while, Emily suddenly asked very seriously, "Auntie Yuna, where will you be going? Why would you ask me to take care of the baby for you? You are his mother. You should take care of the baby."
"I..." Yuna stammered. She really didn't know how to explain, so she could only find an excuse at will. "Emily, when we are alive, we don't know what will happen in the next moment. I just told you that in case of any possibilities in the future."
Emily tilted his head and temporarily accepted Yuna's explanation, not thinking about any bad situations.
The little boy nodded and said solemnly, "Don't worry. No matter what happens in the future, I will help take care of the baby for you! Remember, I'll just be helping!"
Hearing Emily's emphasis, Yuna couldn't help wondering whether Emily had sensed something.
With her current physical condition, it would be great for her to hold on until her baby was born.
It was simply a pipe dream for her to take care of this baby.
It was because of this that she had asked all the people she could entrust to take care of her baby.
However, Emily said that he would just be helping. In other words, Yuna still needed to take care of her baby in person, and he would just be assisting at most.
It was hard for Yuna not to overthink it.
"However, I should be satisfied that a five-year-old child would make such a promise to me."
Yuna rubbed Emily's head and smiled. "It'll be enough for you to help occasionally."
After she left, the battle between Wesley and Rowdy might go on.
She didn't even know when the battle would end.
What Yuna needed was that Emily could help at crucial moments and prevent her child from being in danger like the way she was now.
Emily seemed to understand Yuna's meaning and nodded hard. "I will. Don't worry."
Yuna was not very surprised to hear that because Emily had always agreed to her request.
As a result, she often had a feeling that Emily was the one who took care of her.
She felt ashamed when she thought of that.
Emily didn't know what Yuna was thinking. He interrupted her from her pondering and asked, "Auntie Yuna, when are you going to reconcile with Daddy?"
Yuna really had no idea about this question. She could only look at Emily with uncertainty and ask, "What do you think?"
"I don't know either." Emily spread his hands, looking confused. After thinking for a while, he came up with an idea. "How about... you'll reconcile with Daddy when you're happy? I also think that Daddy has gone too far. You can't forgive him too soon!"
Yuna didn't say anything.
She had never expected that Emily would offer her such a low blow.
She silently thought that perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, Emily's idea could be regarded as a trap for his father.
However, she liked it.
Yuna kissed the little boy and took his advice. She said in an encouraging tone, "Okay. I'll do as you said!"
"Haha!" Emily smiled happily and went into Yuna's arms. He looked at Yuna and said, "Auntie Yuna, I still have a question for you. Can you answer it?"
"What do you want to ask?" Yuna thought for a moment and directly gave the little boy a privilege. "Emily, no matter what question you have in the future, you can ask me right away. As long as I can answer it, I will tell you the answer directly. Is that okay with you?"
Emily understood why Yuna deliberately emphasized the latter part of her words.
"Auntie Yuna told me that I'm too young to know certain things.
"However, she wouldn't hide anything that I'm allowed to know from me."
Emily thought for a moment, suddenly hugged Yuna's neck, and said, "Auntie Yuna, you can tell me the answer to this question directly!"
"Not necessarily." Yuna looked at the little fellow and said slowly, "Tell me what you want to ask first."
Emily blinked his eyes and said in a tone full of eagerness, "I want to know how Uncle Gavin is doing! Auntie Yuna, I heard you and Daddy say that Sister Wendy is married to Uncle Gavin. Does that mean that he has recovered?"
Yuna was stunned and suddenly remembered what Milo had reported before.
Milo said that Gavin and Wendy went back to the hospital the day after their wedding. At noon that day, there was an emergency rescue in the hospital.
But due to the strict confidentiality of the private hospital, Milo and his brothers couldn't find out which patient was rescued.
According to Wesley's style of doing things, Yuna vaguely guessed that the person receiving first aid was very likely to be Gavin.
In other words, he risked his life to hold a wedding ceremony with Wendy before he could recover.
Things were far from optimistic as Emily had imagined. There was still a long way to go for Gavin to recover.
"However, how could I tell Emily about this?"
Yuna was in an unprecedented dilemma.
At this moment, she would rather have Emily stick to her and ask her when she would get better.
