Chapter 1206
Gina looked a little embarrassed, “You gotta give yourself more credit, girl. You graduated from a top– notch university and you’re quite a looker. Do you really think a guy like Dr. Martin would go for someone without any merits?”
“Let’s not go there again, me and Dr. Martin? No chance.” Emily was firm, “Since Kya was born, I’ve made up my mind that I won’t remarry or have more kids, and I won’t look for a stepdad for Kya!”

Gina looked at her stubborn daughter, quite puzzled, “You’re just like your father! I’m only saying this for your own good. Do you know how hard it is to raise a child alone?”
“I know, I’ve been doing it for two years, I can handle it!”
“You’re still young, you’ve got your whole life ahead of you!”
“Mom, save it, I won’t change my mind!”
Emily said firmly, then put the washed apples in the fruit bowl and headed out, “Enough with this, I’m going to check on Kya!”
“Come back here!” Gina tried to grab Emily, but just then the kitchen door opened, and Elliott Sullivan walked in with Kya in his arms, “What’s all the fuss about in the kitchen? How long does it take to wash some apples?”
“It’s all because of this Dr. Martin business!” Gina said to Elliott, “You need to talk some sense into Emily!”
“Let’s deal with that later!” Elliott said hurriedly, “Bonnie just called to say her parents are coming to see the house, they’re almost here!”
“What!” Gina almost dropped the fruit basket in surprise, “Why are they coming so suddenly?”
“I have no idea.” Elliott looked worried.
Emily said, “Well, let them come.”
Gina thought for a while, then grabbed Emily’s hand, “Emily, I need your help with this!”
“What do you need help with?” Emily asked.
“They don’t know you had a child out of wedlock, and they’re about to show up. Can we just say that you and Dr. Martin are a family when we introduce you?” Gina asked anxiously.
Emily’s face changed, “Why would we say that?”
Gina said bluntly, “What will they think if they find out you had a child out of wedlock?”
Emily looked cold, “So that’s what you’re worried about. No problem, I’ll just take Kya and leave now, and I won’t show up in front of them in the future!”
“Emily!” Elliott stopped her, “Don’t be rash. Mom is only saying this for my sake, don’t be mad at her.”
Emily replied calmly, “I’m not mad, I just don’t want to cause you trouble!”
Gina knew she had spoken too harshly, and choked up, “Emily, understand your mother, your brother’s wedding was delayed because of my illness, I’m afraid of any more problems!”
“So I’ll take Kya and leave now, out of sight, out of mind!”
Just then, Elliott’s phone rang, he checked it and said hurriedly, “They’re here, where are you planning to go?”
Gina held Emily’s hand tightly, “I’m begging you, no matter what your relationship is with Dr. Martin, I won’t interfere. Can you just play along today?”
Elliott also said, “Emily, please help us out!”
Emily felt trapped again, like when she dealt with the Crystal issue. If she didn’t accept the Frey family’s money, she would be seen as the black sheep of the Sullivan family.
Why can’t she ever escape this fate?
Her hands and feet were cold as ice, she said coldly, “Even if I agree to this, is Dr. Martin really willing to play along?”
“You don’t have to say anything, I’ll handle it!”
