'Marco, there's no need for this Je with me’
‘No she's not I a with you—there is every need forEmily Are you ready?'
She shouldn't be letting hie like this Emily told herself, but the stress of the last few days was telling on her and she siue with hi co him here with herwith themHer hand went to her tu words to her baby, pro it that, no matter what the scan showed, no matter what anyone said, he would have life and she would love him
The stress of worrying about the baby had stolen froained whilst she'd been on Niroli Marco recognised as he took hold of her ar taxi
Marco gave the driver the na Eetting Jemma to tell him what had happened In fact she had been so relieved to see hi he needed to knoithout hi to probe He had co E her that their child would be born on the island and would remain there; whether or not she chose to do the same was up to her

But the news Je called back for a second scan had caused a seismic emotional shift within him so that all he could think about now all that concerned hihts, was Emily and their baby

Emily shook her head
'But you have asked?’
‘I rang Mr Bryant-Jones, my obstetrician, and he said that sometimes a repeat scan was needed’
