"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
“Emma! How old is Charlie now?" After the blood transfusion, Harry stood in front of the hospital room door. Excitedly grabbing Emma's shoulder blades, he repeatedly asked her the same question.This boy had the same eyes as Harry and looked about 5-6 years old. If so, it would coincide with the time that Emma left. Thinking about this possibility, Harry felt both joy and pain in his heart, he almost wanted to explode at the moment waiting for her to answer.But Emma was very calm. She coldly pushed his hand, then frowned, "Don't touch me."“Ah, I'm sorry…” Harry let go of her in surprise and immediately apologized, “So answer my question, how old is Charlie now?”He proactively took a few steps back to keep his distance from her. Five years ago he hurt her deeply. Now that they had met again, he was so happy that he became crazy, but he wouldn't be so rude as to touch her again.Observing her from top to bottom, Harry's heart was momentarily suffocated. Even though he had lived in he
"Harry Handerson, don't follow me anymore!""Let me take you home. It's late now," Harry said sincerely, striding after Emma while maintaining a certain distance.She suddenly turned, angrily pointing her finger straight at him, "Stop. I don't want you to stand close to me!"Harry immediately froze, raising both hands in front of his chest to show his innocence. He slightly pursed his lips, his face showing a touch of dejection, and said with a pitiable look, "Alright, alright. I won't come near you.""Why do you even know I'm here? Are you following me?" Emma's chest heaved with anger, and her eyes glared at him."No, I'm not. I had a meeting with my partner in the next room and just happened to find out you were also dining here with your film crew. If you don't believe me, you can ask Martin about my schedule." He answered seriously."So, what was the purpose of your announcement just now?" Thinking about his arrogant attitude, she continued to pat her chest to calm herself while h
“Charlie, hold… hold my hand.” Emma trembled and reached out to her son.The fire spread more and more, forming a circle surrounding Harry and Charlie. Most of the neighbors next door had escaped, only a few men were carrying water buckets to put out the fire.“Hurry up, go out with your mother.”Harry felt a burning sensation on his back and then was pressed flat to the ground by the bookshelf. He put his soaked vest on Charlie and pushed him forward.Charlie used Harry's coat to help him put out the fire burning the bookshelf. He hesitated a bit, "Uncle Harry... I don't want to leave you behind...""Hurry up! Your mother is waiting!”Emma impatiently wanted to run inside but was constantly stopped by people around her. She shouted, "Why haven't the firefighters arrived yet?"Harry's eyes focused on the burned kitchen. If they continued to stay near this apartment, there was no telling when the gas stove would explode.A man took a deep breath, watched the fire become increasingly dif
After entering the password to the house, Emma carried Charlie's backpack and patted his head, "Take a shower right now. I will only give you 15 minutes.”Charlie nodded and ran into the house. When he discovered Harry was cooking, he happily hugged him. His small arms wrapped around Harry's hips, his eyes shining as he bragged about his day at school.“Uncle Harry, today I help my teacher teach my classmates basic math. She also complimented me that I'm able to be a genius teacher.”Harry put down the soup spoon, took off his apron, bent down, and picked up Charlie, "Wow really? What would you like as a reward?"His small finger gently tapped the tip of his nose, he tilted his head in thought and then smiled brightly, "I like Lego. But I want a model that's really challenging. The ones Mommy got me before were not very interesting.”“Okay, I will reward you with a unique limited edition Lego model this year.”"Awesome! I love you, Uncle Harry.” Kissing Harry on the cheek, Charlie hug
"Uncle Harry, are you awake? Can you take me to school? I can't reach Mommy."Charlie's innocent voice echoed from outside, accompanied by a knocking on the door.Emma jumped, quickly scrambling down from atop Harry. Adjusting her slightly disheveled dress, she gave him a stern look.In just a few seconds, Charlie slowly opened the door and stepped inside. The light from outside illuminated a corner of the bedroom, helping him clearly see his mother's familiar face."Mommy?" Charlie called out in surprise. He kept blinking his eyes, being dressed in a cute teddy bear-themed nightgown, and asked, "Why are you here, Mommy? I thought you hadn't come back yet.""Hmm... Sweetie, Uncle Harry is running a fever, so you can't get too close to him. Change your clothes quickly, and Mommy will take you to school."Emma pulled Charlie away, but he kept turning back to look at Harry, "Is he really running a fever? Then we can't leave him alone at home, right?"Hearing Charlie's words, Harry sudden
Having been submerged in the water for only a short time, Emma's complexion had turned pale. After Harry performed artificial respiration for her, her slightly parted rosy lips let out a faint cough."Director Emma is awake." The people gathered around breathed a sigh of relief, exchanging smiles.Ciara, however, trembled with fear, continuously biting her nails as she stepped back to avoid Harry's gaze."How do you feel, Emma? I will take you to the hospital." Harry took off his vest and draped it over her before supporting her in his arms."No, today's scene is not finished yet. I have to go back to work."Emma staggered to her feet from within Harry's embrace. Her curly, wet hair clung gently to her charming oval face. She glanced towards Ciara, intending to dismiss everyone with a wave, but Harry's icy voice cut through behind her."The person who pushed her into the lake, step forward!""Huh? Director Emma was pushed into the lake?" The crowd immediately buzzed with chatter.Harr
At the hospital."Doctor, how is he?""The patient has alcohol poisoning." A male doctor in a white blouse walked out of the room, calmly answering Emma."Alcohol poisoning?" Emma frowned slightly. Charles stood beside her, holding her trembling shoulders.The doctor took off his mask and slowly explained, "The patient drank too much alcohol in a short period, leading to alcohol poisoning. Alcohol poisoning is very dangerous, especially for someone with a stomach condition like him. So, please take good care of him."After thanking the doctor, Emma stood outside, looking at Harry lying unconscious on the bed. Her lips trembled, and she muttered a few words, "Drank too much alcohol?"At this moment, Tony rushed in. During the time they brought Harry to the hospital, Emma didn't know whom to call to report his condition. Besides her, he didn't have any other relatives. Therefore, she had no choice but to inform Tony."Alcohol poisoning again?" Tony bent down, panting, and asked abruptly
