After Having a Dream, I Became Pregnant with a Billionaire's Child-Chapter 13 - : Save the Older Sister or the Younger Sister

Adeline had just finished speaking when Carlos took her phone away.

"Master Carter, that important item, I didn't dare to keep it on my phone. Just let me go and ensure my safe departure from Z country, I swear, I'll give you the recording."

"Oliver Ross..."

Carlos was about to call for Oliver Ross when he heard a piercing alarm.

"Boss, the hospital is on fire, we need to evacuate quickly."

Oliver Ross rushed over.

"What's going on?"

"The situation is still unclear."

"What about Grandpa?"

Carlos thought of Old Carter first.

"I've already sent bodyguards to look for Old Master Carter. Boss, you need to get out quickly with us."

Oliver Ross escorted Adeline, quickly evacuating Carlos through the fire escape.

The group retreated to the entrance of People's Hospital, which was already full of people - doctors, nurses, and patients in hospital gowns as far as the eye could see.

"Boss, I've got a clear picture now. A patient with depression took medical alcohol from the hospital's storage and set fire throughout the hospital. They've been caught already, but the fire inside the hospital isn't under control yet."

After enquiring about the situation, Oliver Ross came to report.

"Grandpa!"

Carlos spotted Old Carter sitting in a wheelchair and quickly approached.

"Hey, where's the young nurse?"

Old Master Carter was anxious, pushing Carlos aside, searching in the crowd for the figure of Emily Parker. The young nurse had just said she was going back to ask for leave, and she hadn't returned yet.

Most of the people in the hospital had already been evacuated, but there was no sign of the young nurse.

Hearing the words "young nurse," Carlos envisioned Emily in his mind.

His heart rate accelerated a few beats. Carlos, tall with long legs, moved through the crowd searching for that familiar figure.

But after a good search, there was no sign of Emily.

Because of the alcohol, the fire spread quickly; inside the hospital, thick smoke billowed, the fire trucks had not yet arrived, and fewer and fewer people were coming out.

Carlos furrowed his brow and asked Oliver Ross.

"Is anyone still inside the hospital?"

"They say most of the people have already been evacuated, only a few remain inside. I've heard the fire is fiercest near the first-floor women's restroom and the pharmacy."

The pharmacy.

Oliver Ross had just finished speaking when Carlos's expression darkened.

The young nurse, she seems to work in the pharmacy.

The next moment, Oliver Ross was stunned.

"Boss! Boss, what are you doing, boss come back!"

Oliver Ross watched as his boss doused himself with a bucket of water and ran into the blaze.

"Emily Parker? Sophie Parker?"

Adam Willow was anxiously searching in the crowd for Emily and Sophie Parker; he was one of the first to evacuate, but the Parker sisters hadn't come out yet. Emily was supposed to be working in the pharmacy, and Sophie had just gone to the women's restroom.

Adam Willow gritted his teeth, ready to rush inside.

"Doctor Willow, the fire is too big, there's alcohol inside, it could explode any moment. Don't be rash; the fire trucks will arrive soon."

Several doctors and nurses beside him were trying to persuade Adam Willow.

Adam Willow ignored their advice and charged into the fire.

Inside the hospital, the fire was much larger than it appeared from outside.

Flames roared, thick smoke mixed with heat waves hit him in the face, and as Adam Willow entered, he started searching for the Parker sisters.

"Left is the women's restroom, right is the pharmacy."

Sweat covered Adam Willow's forehead; the temperature of the air had reached a critical point. If he didn't get out soon, it would explode.

Save Sophie? Or Emily?

If he saved one of them, he likely wouldn't have time to save the other.

Adam Willow struggled to move, unsure of what to do.

Then, a figure, like a bullet, ran towards the pharmacy without a hint of hesitation.

Adam Willow didn't even get a clear look at the person.

Seeing the direction the person was heading, it was towards the pharmacy.

Adam Willow hesitated for a moment, then heard crying coming from the direction of the women's restroom.

"Wuu wuu~ Help."

It was Sophie Parker's voice, and Adam Willow rushed towards the women's restroom.

"Nurse! Emily Parker!"

When Carlos rushed in, he did not hesitate for a moment.

Unfamiliar with the hospital, he ran a few steps, with the flames trying to block his path several times.

As he called out Emily Parker's name, he searched for the pharmacy.

But near the pharmacy, he saw no one.

The fire grew larger, and objects more than a meter away became indiscernible.

Seeing Carlos continue to run forward, finally, he spotted a figure ahead.

"Emily Parker!"

Carlos stepped forward, pulling Emily Parker up.

Emily Parker was deathly pale, and when she looked up to see Carlos, she froze for a second.

"Carlos?"

Just as Emily Parker was about to ask how he got there, a wave of nausea surged up, and she bent over to retch.

She had felt sick halfway through her escape.

This was the first time she had experienced morning sickness since becoming pregnant.

Little did she expect to encounter arson at that moment.

"You're pregnant?"

Seeing Emily Parker clutching her stomach and retching, Carlos belatedly realized something.

His face darkened as he glared at Emily Parker's stomach, the joy of finding Emily Parker vanishing completely.

"You came for a blind date while pregnant?"

Seeing Emily Parker not denying it, Carlos suddenly became angry.

He hadn't expected those rumors from his mischievous friends to be true; that nurses were promiscuous, becoming pregnant before marriage and still trying to find someone like him to be the delighted father.

"You came for a blind date despite having someone you love? Everyone is just playing their part, why take it so seriously?"

Thinking about how Carlos had threatened Adeline before, to abort the baby in her womb for a DNA test, Emily Parker felt even more sick to her stomach. She turned her head away and stubbornly said.

"You're the first one who dares to talk back to me like this, Emily Parker, you're good."

Carlos was so furious that he turned and left.

After walking a few steps, the woman behind him was still retching.

Carlos clenched his fists, then released them, turned around, and quickly walked back to Emily Parker's side.

Before Emily Parker could react, she was suddenly lifted into the air.

"You!"

Emily Parker exclaimed in shock, and in the next moment, she was securely held in Carlos's arms in a princess carry.

Pregnant women usually gain weight; how come this woman is still so light?

Carlos's face grew longer as he inwardly disdained.

He looked down to see Emily Parker's pale skin reddened by the fire, his gaze deepening. This woman had nothing but a pretty face, and if it got burned...

He took off the shirt he had drenched in water and draped it over Emily Parker.

"Put me down now."

Emily Parker's face was pressed against Carlos's bare chest, and she was draped in his shirt. She could clearly hear the beating of his heart.

Her face became redder and redder, like a cooked shrimp.

But Carlos did not listen to any of this.

From the pharmacy to the hospital's main entrance, a journey that would take just a few minutes felt incredibly long to Emily Parker.

As they neared the main entrance, Oliver Ross was leading a few bodyguards, trying to rush inside.

"Boss! Thank heaven, boss, you finally made it out."

Oliver Ross saw Carlos holding someone and hurriedly reached out to take Emily Parker, only to retract his hand quickly after receiving a stern look from his boss.

It was only when they reached the safe area that Emily Parker was put down.

Emily Parker was still draped in Carlos's shirt, and at that moment, she heard someone nearby asking,

"Doctor Willow, Sophie Parker, are you both alright?"
