“Emma? Why are you sitting here?” Charles got out of a taxi. As soon as he saw Emma sitting in the front hall, he couldn't believe his eyes.His current appearance was not as polite as usual. His two shirt buttons were undone, revealing his seductive bare chest, and his tie was messy. He hung his vest across his arms and slowly walked towards Emma.Her endless thoughts were interrupted by Charles' voice. She was startled and then looked up at him, "I... I... don't want to go home."Having said that, she pursed her lips. Slender fingers intertwined. She shivered a bit because of the cold. Very soon, she smelled a special perfume scent from the vest covering her body.Charles sat down next to her, "Are you arguing with Harry again?"Emma looked down. Recently, she really liked to cry. Just an ordinary sentence could make her eyes well up with tears. She hesitantly nodded.“Let me talk to him.”He immediately jumped up, but a small hand quickly grabbed him. She shook her head, “No. I don'
At the hospital.Emma walked out with a dazed expression, unable to clearly see her emotions. Her hands trembled as she held the pregnancy result paper.Putting the phone to her ear, the time waiting for the other end to pick up was like countless drumbeats in her heart. A moment later, a deep calm voice came, "What's going on?"Harry was meeting with partners abroad. At first, he felt uncomfortable when someone bothered him while working, but when he saw her name appear on the phone screen, he immediately went out. Having to take a deep breath to reassure himself, he dared to pick up the phone.She stood alone in the middle of the crowd at the hospital, grabbed the phone tightly, and lowered her voice, "Are you coming home from work tonight?""That's right." He replied.“Let's go home, I have something to tell you.”She put her phone and pregnancy result paper in her bag, took a taxi, and continued back to work.In the evening, Emma had prepared a sumptuous table of food waiting for
Dreamily opening her eyes, the pure white ceiling and the typical antiseptic scent of the hospital entered Emma's nostrils.The nurse standing next to her was checking her parameters and bent down to ask, "Are you awake?"Emma wanted to raise her hand to rub her aching temple, but her whole body had no strength. She frowned and said, "Who... took me to the hospital?""I don't know. But your husband is outside, let me tell him you're awake. He's very worried about you.” The nurse finished her work and was about to leave."Wait." Emma stopped her, “My baby… how is my baby?”She swallowed the water down her dry throat. Eyes full of earnestness mixed with fear looked towards the nurse. Her heart pounded continuously as she waited for an answer. Before passing out, she felt her stomach contract violently, afraid that the car crash would affect her baby...“Don't worry. Your baby is still safe, but you had a foetal derangement.”The nurse smiled gently at her, seeming to remember something,
The silence in this room made people feel scared. Suddenly, a loud noise rang out to break this stuffy atmosphere. Harry forcefully placed the cup of hot milk on the table.He stood up and walked towards Emma's hospital bed. Gently kissing her forehead, he wrapped his arms around her, hugged her small body, and stroked her spine:“Emma, I know it's hard for you to accept this. But until Aunt Clark's health situation stabilizes, I can't do anything to Aurora.”Emma didn't push his large body away. It seemed like she was too used to his way of comforting, but she no longer felt the same sincerity as before.“So you confirm with me, do you choose me or Aurora?” She asked coldly.This question made Harry's shoulders tremble slightly. He hesitated for a moment before answering, "Please sympathize with me. After Aunt Clark is cured, I will take them to another place. Never see you again.”“Who will sympathize with me? Harry, I was the one who got into a car crash that left me in the hospita
The days passed in boredom. When dusk fell, the sun gradually sunk behind the sea. Emma sat next to the window observing this poetic scene but her heart did not feel peaceful at all.For the past three days, Harry locked her in this place and disappeared without a trace of him. Every meal, the steward would bring her food and then retreat. This villa was as quiet as its owner, with absolutely no conversation between people.Suddenly, the bright headlights of the Rolls Royce shined straight into the large gate of the villa, attracting Emma.He had finally returned.Harry strode into the main hall, took off his coat, threw it to the steward, and tiredly rubbed his temples, "Where is Emma?"“Madam's always in her room.” The steward honestly reported.He frowned, reached out to loosen his tie, "Didn't she leave the room or go to the flower garden for a walk?"The steward shook his head and sighed, "I offered to take her shopping as you advised, but she didn't agree. However, I see that sh
[Dear Harry,By the time you read this letter, I will have left you. Since I met you, I have done the craziest things in my entire life. And I am happy for that.For the first time, I accepted a marriage without love to a stranger I had only met a few times. I thought we would spend two years of contract marriage being bored and lonely. But in reality, you proved to be a gift that God gave me.Today, I am not writing to blame you or express my disappointment. I just want to thank you for the beautiful memories you brought into my life and for healing my broken heart after a failed relationship. These will be my final words to you after leaving without a proper goodbye.You might wonder why I never gave you a chance. I have also asked myself the same thing – am I being too stubborn?But I no longer want to argue about right and wrong. I also won't seek to understand who the real figure in your heart is.I don’t expect to always be a priority, but I also don't want to become an option f
5 years later.In the airport toilet.Harry washed his hands under the running water, then fixed his slightly messy hair. Just as he turned to dry his hands, a piece of paper appeared in front of him.“Why are you imitating me?” A white boy with blue eyes was giving him papers.He looked at the somewhat familiar features on the boy's face and was a bit stunned, but just coldly accepted, "Thank you."The boy seemed unhappy. He frowned slightly, clasped his hands at his side, then looked down, "You're welcome. But you still haven't answered my question.”Just now, standing next to him, he observed this handsome man performing the same hand-washing movements as him. Even his habit of liking to fix the hair was copied from him. This made him feel uncomfortable at all.“I have been standing here for a long time. It's you who imitates me."“I came later so I'm the one imitating? You are unreasonable.”Harry suddenly burst out laughing. He bent down and gently pinched the tip of the boy's no
"No, sorry…"Emma confusedly grabbed the side of her dress and stepped back.The whole hall immediately fell silent. Everyone stared at each other with wide eyes. The hand Harry held out in the air stiffened, even he himself was feeling stunned.This voice... Even though she spoke very softly, he felt familiar.“Emm…” Before he could finish his words, she quickly turned around and ran away.The crowd parted to let her go. She quickly disappeared from Harry's sight before he could regain his composure.The dance party was originally supposed to last another 10 minutes, but the scene just made everyone stop, afraid of Harry's emotions. However, an extremely strange emotion appeared on his face.Not the anger or usual coldness, his eyes seemed to hide a sadness that was hard to describe in words.Emma ran back to her table. At this time, Charles was also looking for her. When he saw her drinking the entire glass of wine in one gulp, he snatched it out of her hand.“Emma, where did you go
