Emily, The Mute Girl
Could This be Karma?

Della's hand on Clarissa's wrist tightened. Why is his nephew like this, loving a man who doesn't even consider him at all. Why should Clarissa love a man who only uses her?

"Tante.." call Clarissa gently when Della doesn't let go of her hand.

Slowly, Della loosened her hand grip and then let go. Clarissa did not notice the disappointed expression on her tantric face. He immediately walked hurriedly to the main courtyard of the State Palace to greet Jeremy.

Like a wife who was very happy when she heard her husband coming home from a long trip, Clarissa's face looked bright and she walked excitedly without caring around, making the servants anxious. What if the First Lady falls if walking in such a hurry?

"Be careful, Mother." the waiter she was with kept trying to warn her, but Clarissa ignored him. He continued walking and only stopped as he arrived in the courtyard, seeing that the President's entourage had arrived from their visit.

"Where's Jordan? Didn't anyone tell her that her father had returned?" clarissa asked impatiently while looking around. Jordan is the son of Jeremy and Clarissa.

"Young Master will be there soon, Mother." replied the servant.

"Ah, that's Young Master" said the maid again as she watched Jordan walk up to them in her caretaker.

Clarissa looked at her son who was about to turn 3 months old. Jordan's face is very similar to Jeremy's. Nothing was wasted from him, neither the color of his eyes nor his hair. Everything was inherited from Jeremy. Clarissa rushed to him. Jordan looked at his mother without a smile on his face.

"Be nice" Clarissa said, and Jordan simply nodded in response.

Clarissa then lifted him into her carrier without regard for her enlarged stomach. While carrying Jordan, they continued to notice one by one the group got out of the car.

Clarissa smiled cheerfully when she saw Jeremy also coming down, but her smile slowly faded away instantly, as Jeremy walked towards the rear of the car. And when the car door opened, Clarissa's body froze. Her heart ached to see Jeremy gently want to help Emily get out of the car.

Upon seeing this view, inevitably Clarissa's memories were thrown into the past. Where at that time Jeremy was still an ordinary Young Master. Jeremy takes him to his Mansion and lets his wife who he doesn't love see him carry himself affectionately. Clarissa didn't expect all this to turn around. Now, Clarissa is Jeremy's wife, but the man carries his ex-wife with a friendly, affectionate and considerate gaze. Why did all this happen?

Emily was about to get out of the car when Jeremy opened the door and reached out to help her get down. But then he saw Clarissa standing in front of him carrying a little child with her belly bent, looking at them from the terrace of the palace. Makes Emily think of what happened a few years ago. At that time he was also standing on the terrace waiting for the arrival of the husband who had long gone. At that time, her husband came home with the hand of a young girl. The difference is, at that time he did not love this man and was not pregnant or having children with him. While Clarissa loved Jeremy so much, her heart right now must have been deeply hurt.

Emily breathed in her seat. He thought, is this karma? Karma because Clarissa used to do bad things to Emily? Jeremy was, after all, a married man, and although he did not love his wife, Clarissa should not have had a relationship with him.

"Emily.." call Jeremy when he sees her standing still.

Emily sees Jeremy's hand outstretched to her, but she ignores it and goes down on her own. Seeing his hand being ignored, Jeremy smiled bitterly with the emptiness he felt in his heart. He slowly pulled his hand back. However, it didn't matter to him if Emily didn't like him at this moment. She believes that one day Emily will change her attitude towards her. Emily is someone who is soft in heart.

Jeremy was about to circle Emily's waist with his arm, but Emily immediately dodged and pulled Ferry's hand to stand behind the president. Ferry was fascinated by what he saw. The boy did not expect to set foot in the State Palace, even getting a very lively reception.

But Jeremy also walked backwards and stood beside Emily. Inevitably, Emily was forced to walk side by side with him. But the servants and everyone in the palace felt that Emily was an unreasonable and outrageous person. How could she bring a dog to the palace? Jeremy doesn't care about it. He wanted to show people that the woman next to him was so important to him that he let her carry what she wanted.

The place Emily and Ferry will be staying at must go through the Main Palace. Emily stopped when she was a few steps away from Clarissa. Emily's heart feels guilty for having to be the third person in their relationship. In fact, when he saw Clarissa's face, he could also feel sadness, disappointment and anger in his heart.

Emily doesn't know what to do when she sees Clarissa. Even an apology is useless, because as long as Jeremy keeps picking on him, Clarissa will keep getting hurt.

"Why did you stop?" jeremy asked who had been walking around just looking at Emily.

Emily did not answer and continued to remain in her place. It was then that Jeremy turned his head looking forward, then looked at Clarissa dissatisfied. He wanted to get rid of the woman who was thought to be blocking their way, but his son in the woman's arms made him refrain from speaking rudely. Clarissa tried to keep smiling and bowed in respect.

"Welcome back."

Clarissa looked at her son and told him to say hello. Jordan felt uncomfortable in his mother's arms, but upon seeing his father, he soon became cheerful. He happily greeted his father with a smile on his face.

"Welcome back, Father."

Jeremy smiles at him, then he climbs the stairs to retrieve Jordan from Clarissa.

"Are you here to greet Dad?" jeremy.jordan asked.

"Mm, I'm glad you're back." he said.

"Are you a good boy as long as you're gone?" ask Jeremy.

"Yes, Dad." replied Jordan again nodding. Jeremy rubbed the boy's head gently.

Emily sees Jeremy and his son's interaction. Although he said that he did not love Clarissa, the man loved his son very much. Clarissa smiled with satisfaction as she looked at Emily. He showed me what Emily didn't have, a child. Jeremy loves him or not, the man will return to his side for his son.
