Nora's face turned slightly pale as she heard what Emily said.
She was well aware of how stiff the patriarch of the Xu family was. Once this scandal was brought to light, she would be in real trouble.
So the most important thing now was to arouse David's love for her. As long as David protected her, no one would dare to hurt her!
As for Rita, she was not on Nora's list of concerns at the moment.
Thinking of this, she had a bright idea. 'This baby in my belly is David's own flesh and blood, so he will not abandon it!'
Thinking of how much David had loved her in years past, Nora was filled with confidence at once. As long as she pretended to be pitiful, David would definitely be soft-hearted! 'It's no big deal to raise a baby, isn't it?
As long as David is willing to raise this baby, then I would be glad to be with him as well. That can also make up for his wooing for my love for many years, '
Nora thought happily. In her mind, she had already begun to regard David as her own possession.
Looking at her confidence, Rita couldn't help sneering and said, "It's hard to tell whether the baby belongs to the Xu family or not. Nora, if you wanted to find a back-up, why did you need to find a married man? Don't you have any sense of shame?"
Nora felt a sharp pang in her heart, then she said in an odd way, "Of course my child is the Xu family's. Can't it be possible to have a child with a blood relationship, unlike someone else? And by then, guess who David will choose..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Rita had raised her hand and slapped her through the face!
Nora's cheek became red and swollen at a speed visible to the naked eye. Five fingerprints were etched into her face and looked shocking, while her ears were buzzing from the blow.
It took her a long time to react, and she shouted with extreme anger, "Rita! How dare you hit me!"
"Bitch, you deserve it!" Rita trembled all over with anger and she could not wait to rush up and beat Nora up. "How dare you insult my son! Believe it or not, I'm warning you, I'll rip your mouth apart!"
'What David said had made me become extremely angry. As for Nora, who does she think she is? Does she
Emily held her, patted her back gently, and comforted her in a soft voice, "Don't be afraid. I don't think David would do that. How could he hurt you like that? Besides he loves you so much! Rita, you should give him a little bit more credit than that."
"I don't know. I really don't know..." Rita shook her head. She looked so sad and confused. "You all think that he loves me very much, but I can't be sure of it because he loved others before… I am not sure who he loves more, me or Nora... I don't know how to trust him, because he doesn't trust me either..."
It was the first time that Emily had heard all of Rita's thoughts so clearly. She sighed softly and soothed, "Let it be. When David wakes up, you'd better have a good talk with him. No emotion, just be calm and tell him what you think."
She really didn't want such a loving couple to be separated by the likes of Nora.
Rita fell into silence. No one knew whether she understood the advice or not.
Considering that David was still resting, they didn't disturb him in an attempt to wake him up.
Every second that Rita spent waiting for him to wake up meant incomparable suffering to her. She was being tortured by her doubts and unspoken fears over the madness that Nora might stir up.
She hoped David would wake up quickly and give her a reasonable explanation. At the same time, she was afraid that when he woke up, he would give her an unwanted answer and the worst possible result.
