After ending the call, Baron Stuart took a bath in the bathroom. It should be half past four in the afternoon by now.
After dinner, he dialed the villa’s number again, but Emily Walker was still deep in sleep.
Baron Stuart, not wanting to disturb her, put on a clean suit and left the hotel.
Instead of calling from a foreign country, he preferred to get back home as soon as possible.
He originally planned to quickly finish all his tasks here, but, three days had passed and Baron Stuart hadn’t returned home.
Emily Walker thought, since he didn’t come back in three days, he wouldn’t be back until next Sunday. That meant, she could go shopping with Bella Stuart on Saturday!
She couldn’t recall how long it had been since someone accompanied her for shopping!
In the blink of an eye, Saturday arrived. Bella Stuart, as promised, was eager to leave Stuart Manor right after breakfast.
Zachary Stuart had no idea about Emily Walker’s pregnancy, so the unusual behavior of the mother and daughter these few days slightly confused him.
Vivian Ferguson, in order to avoid arousing his suspicion, even suppressed her desire to go see Emily Walker. She was afraid the old master would find it out accidentally.
Now, with Baron Stuart not around, she hoped that by revealing Camila Walker’s refusal to donate blood, old Master Stuart would no longer approve of the engagement.
What Vivian Ferguson didn’t expect was that the Walker family came to explain the matter themselves.
The old master had never been particularly hostile to Camila Walker. Plus, he had once made a promise to his war comrades, which let him take their explanation at face value. He thought Camila Walker was genuinely frightened at that time. When the doctor just questioned her if she was type B, she shook her head indicating she wasn’t, but before she could open her mouth, another girl had stepped out, which was completely understandable.
However, it was not to say that he didn’t mind it at all.
After all, he had only one grandson. If anything had happened and Camila Walker didn’t help, he was determined to cancel the marriage.
But now, his grandson was fine, relatively speaking, his anger also halved. Luckily, everything was okay and given Camila Walker’s sincere demeanor, he felt there was nothing more to fuss about.
It was normal for someone who had a fear of blood since childhood. Could he call off the marriage for this one thing?
Moreover, their whole family had personally come to explain. If he had decided to break the engagement now, wouldn’t that make him seem fickle and inconsiderate.
After all, they had a connection of several decades. This was his promise to Master Walker before his death. How could he break it so lightly?
This incident had also left a small grudge in Zachary Stuart’s heart which would be hard to get rid of in a while.
In the morning, after having breakfast, Emily Walker had changed into a beige loose autumn long shirt and paired it with pencil pants. This way, her belly wasn’t that noticeable.
Just as she was about to step down the stairs, the doorbell rang. She knew, Bella Stuart had arrived!
Emily Walker took her small bag, opened the door and indeed saw Bella Stuart standing at the entrance of the courtyard, eagerly waiving at her.
Seeing her ready to leave, Clayton Howard, standing outside, hesitated for a moment, “Lady Carter, where are you going?”
Emily Walker paused in surprise, how could she forget that Clayton Howard was still there…
Since Clayton Howard was originally left by Baron Stuart to ‘keep an eye on’ her, she had to persuade him to let her go out no matter what!
“I need to buy something, so I’m thinking of going out for a bit.” She said looking at him.
Upon hearing this, Clayton Howard didn’t seem to worry, “Lady Carter, tell me what you need, I will get it for you.”
