Chapter 207: Fleeting moment
Emily's POV
I was surprised I made it all the way to the bathroom without my weak knees giving out but I have a feeling that the reason Waylen was standing behind me was to catch me if I fell.
My sweet man. His patience and kindness made me feel guilty…guilty that I checked out of life and he was left with the pieces and two children to raise all on his own.
Guilty that even though there was an ex-mistress down the hall and a few pictures that could destroy his life I was his priority.
I bit down on my lips and I kept walking, praying silently I wouldn't fall on my ass.
"How's Mimi? Is her fever gone?" I asked him.
Waylen came closer and helped me remove the lowly dress I was wearing. He dropped the dress on the silver rail south of where I was standing.
"Baby girl is fine. Don't worry" Waylen answered with a bland voice.
