No bloodied eye she had imagined. His eye was not even red and swollen. The skin behind his eye was grazed, leaving a welt, which could not be named as a wound. She believed that it would disappear after tonight.
Only then did she realize that she had been tricked by him!
She was even more annoyed and she reached out her hand to push him away.
However, how could she make it at this time? As early as she began to move, Simon had hugged her tightly. No matter what she said, he would not loosen his grip.
He buried his handsome face in her shoulder like a big dog. "No blood, but real pain!"
Emily gritted her teeth.
Simon wrapped his arms around her waist and croaked, "Emily, are you and baby really all right?"
Hearing that he was indeed very worried, she pursed her lips and replied in a low voice, "Yes."
Simon suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Although she said so, he thought about calling Director Ye later for confirmation, otherwise, he could not rest assured.
He raised his hand on her back up to rub her head. His Adam's apple moved slightly. "Were you frightened?"
"Yes..." Emily nodded.
She was indeed frightened, extremely frightened, so she hoped that he would be by her side. At that time, her insides were like jelly and she didn't know what to do. And most of the time, she was afraid that she might lose the child...
Simon hugged her even more tightly, his thin lips pressed against her ear. "If it happens again in the future, I will definitely stay by your side. You will never be afraid!"
Emily curled her lips, but she didn't want to experience it again.
She snorted and said bitterly, "If I can't reach you when I need you again. I'll go abroad with your child and marry to a beggar!"
"No way!" Simon's eyes suddenly narrowed.
Beggar...
How could she ever imagine this!
Simon wanted to warn her but soon realized that he was guilty in this matter. He poked the corners of her mouth with his slender fingers and said lazily, "Good girl, Emily, smile for me!"
"Dream on!" Emily glared at him.
How could he demand her like this!
Simon held her in his arms again. This time, he no longer buried his handsome face in her shoulder. Instead, he let her head press against his chest, with his warm hand on her head.
With her ear against his chest, she could hear his heartbeat.
Emily struggled for a while but gave up since she could not break away. Hearing his steady heartbeat, she felt much calmer. She was no longer so depressed, but an uneasy feeling was still hanging over her.
After two seconds of silence, she asked faintly, "Miss Sam's case came on fortrial today?"
"Mn." Simon nodded.
He was surprised why she knew. But thinking of Tina's message, he guessed that she might have gone to the cardiac surgery department since she could get through to him. But originally he didn't intend to hide it from her.
Emily pursed her lips and asked, "What's the result?"
Emily curled her lips and asked impatiently, "What
time is it?"
Simon seemed to deliberately pick up the small alarm clock that she threw yesterday when she lost her temper and sent it to her. "It's ten to nine."
Emily waved her hand and then sat up.
She didn't expect that she would get up so late. In fact, she suddenly woke up at midnight and couldn't fall asleep. Later, in his long arms, she gradually fell asleep again.
It was late, but she was not in a hurry or flustered.
Yesterday, when Tina saw her home, she mentioned that the chief editor permitted her to rest for one more day. She didn't have to worry that she would be late for work. As for Simon, he also took a day off work.
Simon sat up and looked at her face. "Do you feel better after a long sleep? Do you feel uncomfortable? If so, we'd better go to the hospital again!"
"No, I'm fine!" Emily shook her head. She did not want to bother Director Ye one more time and replied, "Yesterday, Director Ye gave me medicine and let me take it for two days."
Simon nodded. "Mn, then take it after the breakfast!"
He threw back the covers, got out of bed, picked up the trousers on the ground and put them on. Then he fastened the drawstring as he walked out and said, "Breakfast is ready. Go wash up, and I'll fry two eggs!"
Emily's stomach was empty, and she was hungry after listening to what he said.
She thought for a moment and said, "I want mine sunny side up."
