Soon the car stopped in front of the hospital.
Emmett’s mother unbuckled her seat belt and waved her hand at Emmett. “Well, you go first.”
“Mom,” he called out to her, his hand clenched into a tighter grip on the steering wheel. “What do you think will
make something go wrong with the test results?”
She thought he was worried about his father’s medical examination results, so she comforted, “Don’t worry. When
your father had his medical examination, I was right next to him. It wouldn't go wrong. Stop overthinking it. Go
back.”
Emmett just nodded and said, “Then I will leave first.”
Instead of trusting Clarence, he was more willing to trust his mother.
Then he drove away to another hospital.
In a ward, Daniel was packing his things.
Emmett walked over quickly and asked, “What are you doing?”
Daniel replied, “It’s almost time for me to be discharged.”
Emmett frowned and asked, “Did the doctor agree?”
“Yes.” Daniel changed the subject, asking, “You went to see Clarence?”
Hearing this, Emmett became serious and nodded.
Daniel knew what kind of man Clarence was. Emmett must have been taunted by Clarence when apologizing.
So he reached out and patted Emmett’s shoulder. “Well, since Miss Radomil and Clarence are married, you should
let go and stop targeting at him.”
“Amanda’s whereabouts in City N was really suspicious and I just suspected…” Emmett said.
“If you did not hold a grudge against him, you would never have said it in front of Miss Radomil without solid
evidence,” Daniel said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEmmett was speechless for a moment, sitting down and pressing his brows.
He had always been an upright man. But when it came to matters related to Stella and Clarence, he could not help
but become…
He knew that Clarence was better than him in every way, so he could only watch Stella being snatched away.
How could he not hate Clarence?
Daniel said, “Well, let’s go. I don’t want to stay in this place full of disinfectant anymore.”
Emmett looked up at him and asked, “What do you plan to do after this?”
“What do you mean?” Daniel asked.
“Are you planning to stay in City N or… are you going back to London?”
Hearing this, Daniel paused for a while.
Emmett continued, “If you continue to stay in City N, it's alright. If you're going back to London, I want you to do me
a favor.”
Since Emmett rarely made such requests, Daniel got interested and sat next to him. “Spit it out.”
“Just do the paternity test again for Channing and William,” Emmett said.
Daniel got stunned. “Did you find something out?”
Emmett shook his head. “No. Well, it was Clarence…who said a lot of things. Although I do not believe him, I don’t
feel at ease if I cannot get a confirmation. What’s more… even if it is just retaliation, there is no reason for him to
choose this matter.”
“The paternity test was done by you, so he suspects that you had faked the result?”
Emmett sighed, “He did not directly and explicitly say that he suspected me. But he kept finding trouble with me
and involved my mother in this matter. If the paternity test can be done again, my mother will be clear.”
Daniel said, “I got it. But…when the result came out back then, I felt that it was indeed quite strange. Jeffery and
Channing just don't seem like father and son.”
After a pause, he added, “I am going back to London to handle some things.”
…
In the evening, Stella was staring dully at the blank draft book when someone knocked gently on the office door.
She thought it was Sherry who came to ask her to go home. So she packed up the things in front of her while
saying, “Sherry, wait for me. I will…”
While saying that, she looked up and saw an upright figure at the door.
Meeting her eyes, Clarence slightly raised his eyebrows.
She was surprised but a bit happy. Looking at the time, she found that it was not yet seven o’clock. “Why are you
here?”
He said, “I came to pick you up from work.”
“Are you done so early today?” she asked.
“No,” he replied.
She asked, “Then…”
He replied, “Let's date.”
At these words, she was stunned at first but soon gave a bright smile.
When they left, Sherry stood at the door with an envious look.
After a while, it was time to get off work. When all the young girls at the studio left one by one, she locked the
studio door. While clapping her hands to get off the dust, she heard a low male voice from behind her. “Sherry.”
She froze for a few second and then turned her head. “Are not you in the hospital? How…”
Daniel replied, “I was discharged from the hospital.”
“Oh.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSince he was discharged from the hospital, it meant his injury was no longer that serious.
“Didn’t you boyfriend come to pick you up?”
She just could not tell him that they had broken up.
She replied, “Well, he has work to do. It’s not that far, so I can walk home.”
He looked ahead in silence and then suddenly said, “I will walk you home.”
“Huh?”
He just walked forward towards her place without giving any explanation.
She stood in place for a few seconds and then followed him.
Along the way, they had nothing to say. The atmosphere seemed awkward.
Just when she was thinking about something with her head down, he said, “I am going back to London.”
Her head jerked up and she looked at him. He was staring ahead with a calm face.
After a while, she said, “Well, that’s good. Anyway, you are not a local in City N. So going back to the place where
you belong is…”
He asked, “Do you really want me to leave?”
She smiled to herself and said, “It seems to have nothing to do with me. I have no reason to make you stay. If I ask
you to stay, will you truly…”
He stopped walking, looked at her and said slowly, “As long as you ask, I won’t leave.”
He interrupted her before she could finish her words. Hearing this, she froze in place. She then asked in confusion,
“What?”
He repeated word by word, “As long as you ask, I won’t leave.”
After a long while, she smiled, “I wish you a good journey. When you are back here in the future, I'll buy you dinner.
At least we are friends. So I should act like a good friend here in City N.”
He withdrew his eyes and said in a hushed voice, “Let’s go.”
