During his days abroad, Kevin regularly called Emily during the time she got off work at the pub.Because she didn't want him to hear her sleepy voice, she had to set the alarm before two in the morning and then wake up to be alert to talk to him.Tonight was the last night she talked to him because tomorrow, according to the schedule, he would board a plane back to the city.“Kevin, it's raining here. I can't hear your voice anymore. I'll hang up.” Emily proactively spoke up to stop the call.“Uh. Have a good night's sleep. The rain will help you sleep better.”After the gentle words, the other end of the phone rang the sound of ending the call.Emily didn't lie to Kevin because outside, the rain was falling heavily. Through the window, she could see the white road under the lonely dim yellow light.The pouring rain was like a song, lulling the sadness in her heart into a sleep of endless pain, unable to stop.“Kevin, let's not meet again.”She lowered her head, her shoulders shaking
The plane carrying Kevin descended through the clouds and landed at the airport.It was ten o'clock at night but he didn't feel tired after the long flight because he was eager to see his loved one.After taking Sara home, he immediately ran to the north side of the city.The moment he stopped the car in front of the Paradise pub, he suddenly felt nervous, as if he were on a first date.Tightening the box containing the necklace in his hand, he quickly walked inside and sat at the counter, ordering a cocktail.Because Emily told Kurt, everyone will not reveal to Kevin that Jessica has come here.No matter how much the bartender talks, he still has to obey the manager.Today, there were also many customers, but Kevin didn't see Emily anywhere. At least, she should run out here once. Could it be that she's busy serving in VIP rooms?“Little brother, is Miss Emily going to work today?” Kevin asked the bartender.“Ah, didn't she say anything to you? She quit her job here a few days ago.”
After more than two weeks since Kent arrived, Emily has finished sewing his clothes.While flipping through the notebook to find a phone number to contact, suddenly a pair of straight legs appeared in front of her sight.Hastily looking up, she almost cried out loud when she realized that the person opposite was Brian.“Older brother.” Emily spoke up emotionally.“My little sister.” Brian was equally emotional as her.Outside, the tailor shop owner was still stunned by the surreal beauty of the man who had just talked to her.She originally intended to call Emily out, but Brian signaled silence and wanted to go in and greet Emily himself.Since Kent arrived, she was curious and tried searching for the name Emily online. The results returned were engagement photos of her and the late second young master of Unicons group, Daniel.And when she dug deeper, she knew everything related to Emily mentioned in the press.“Are you here to make clothes? I thought you would come sooner.” Emily le
The tailor shop owner nodded, hugged the fabrics that Venn had just chosen, and told him to follow her into Emily's office.Looking at the elegant girl in an elegant uniform, intently cutting fabric, Venn's heart was extremely nervous. He wondered if there was anything else that she couldn't do.Hearing footsteps, Emily immediately raised her head before the tailor shop owner called her.The smile that had just appeared quickly disappeared when Emily saw the face of the man considered Kevin's right-hand man.Could it be that Kevin told Venn to investigate and follow her? Even though she knew they would meet again one day, she didn't think it would be this fast.“The customer wants you to make clothes for him.”After finishing speaking, the tailor shop owner immediately went out, giving space for the seamstress to carry out the next part of her work.Although quite bewildered, Emily still maintained a professional working style, opened the catalog, and asked Venn to choose a style of c
After Kevin left, Emily's body's strength was almost drained. She staggered and had to grip the edge of the table to steady herself.He didn't ask any questions, which made her even more worried. She wanted him to keep asking so she could explain once and then cut off all ties.It took a while for her to be able to stand firmly, gathering the fabrics he bought and putting them in the glass cabinet.Just now, she didn't lie, she had a lot of unfinished orders, if she tried, it would take another three weeks before she started sewing clothes for him.Although no one from her customers urged her to sew quickly, she had to follow the order of priority.The afternoon passed quietly and when it was time to get off work, Emily rearranged her work space and left.The afternoon wind caressed her hair and face, comforting and caressing her. Today, she didn't want to cook rice so she bought two meat dumplings for dinner.The dumplings on the north side of the city aren't as good as the dumplings
More than half a month has passed and Emily is sewing Kevin's order.He ordered so many that she estimated it would take a week to complete them all.She also got used to the fact that at certain hours of the day, he would appear and sit there for an hour or two just to look at her.She wanted to say thank you because he had successfully made her facial skin have to be several layers thicker to resist everyone's looks.Today was a strange day because Kevin didn't come even though it was almost five o'clock in the afternoon.Emily felt both relieved and worried. She was worried because she didn't know if anything would happen to him on the way. However, she couldn't call him.The pale afternoon sunlight slanted through the canopy of the trees, shining on her face. Her steps were unsteady on the bustling street. Her unstable mood caused her thoughts to drift far away.Just like the previous days, after chatting with Daniel's photo, she showered, had dinner, and then sat down at the sewi
In the following days, Kevin kept his promise, he neither went to the tailor shop nor the motel room.Without him bothering her, her work went more smoothly. She focused on cutting and sewing, trying not to spend time thinking about memories with him.“Are you working so hard that you don't even know anyone is coming?” Kurt knocked twice on the table, squinting his eyes and asking.“Ah, because you walked too lightly.” She quickly raised her head and laughed.Kurt glanced at the open notebook and saw the customer's name was Kevin.Kurt knew that Kevin came here to sew clothes through the tailor shop owner when he called her and asked about Emily's work and relationships with the employees in the tailor shop.“I'm going back to my hometown this weekend, do you want to go with me? Occasionally go to the mountains to breathe fresh air.” Kurt flipped through each page in the notebook and asked.“Okay. Anyway, no customer urged me to sew quickly.”Because it was lunchtime, Kurt took Emily
It was after nine o'clock at night but Kevin was still sitting in the bar. He was heartbroken, so he wanted to drink to get drunk, to forget life and people.Sitting next to him is Venn. Although Venn has been promoted to deputy general manager, he is currently no different from Kevin's assistant.After returning from the north side of the city, Kevin asked Venn to take him to the bar and sat here until now, refusing to go home.“Boss, let's go home. If you keep drinking, you will die.” Venn miserably advised.“Venn, tell me, I'm hateful, right?” Kevin picked up a full glass of wine, drank it all, and asked.“No. You are the nation's husband. Many people want to be your lover. How can you say you're hateful?”Hearing the person next to him praising him, he laughed bitterly.So Emily is the exception, right? She said he was disgusting and chased him away as if chasing away an evil spirit.Ignoring Venn's advice, Kevin continued to order another bottle of wine. He wondered if he died to
By the time the couple arrived at the police station, Reid's statement had already been taken and superiors were also preparing an arrest warrant for Jennifer.From Reid's testimony, they discovered that he and Jennifer did not just do bad things once.The chandelier fell, aphrodisiacs were added to the wine at the year-end party, and the video was sent to Daniel moments before the accident.After giving her testimony and signing the report, Emily staggered out of the police station. Every time Kevin touched her hand to try to support her, she immediately pushed his hand away.Everyone, including her, could guess the reason why someone who was extremely careful in traffic like Daniel suddenly lost control of the steering wheel and crashed into the median.“Emily, don't hate me, neither of us wants that.” Kevin hugged her from behind, speaking in pain.“You also think like me, right? We, you and I, are the cause of Daniel's death.” Emily said in tears and tried her best to escape his a
After another week, Kevin felt secure in leaving Emily at home. His mother generously sent her housekeeper, Mary, and a young girl to his house.They know how to drive and are familiar with every corner of this city. The important thing is that they are not married, and have no daughter, younger sister, or older sister.“Tomorrow, I'll take you home to visit my parents. Don't worry about anything.” Kevin reached out and gently pinched his wife's cheek and spoke.“Yes.”Emily nodded and continued to eat breakfast. Kevin always ate faster than her and left the table before her.Maybe it was because he had to go to the company, and she was at home, with nothing urgent to handle.While eating, she thought about what gift to give her mother-in-law. Although Jessica doesn't lack anything, she shouldn't go there with empty hands.When Emily went back upstairs, put on makeup, and changed clothes, the phone rang. She saw a strange phone number, but she still picked it up.On the other end of t
At first, Kevin planned to run to Lisa's residence, but thought again and again, in the end, he called Venn and told him to call two more people to bring her back here so he could interrogate her.His wife had just donated bone marrow, so he couldn't leave her alone at home, and he didn't feel secure if he took her with him.“Emily, sit down here and I'll slowly explain to you. I swear, nothing has happened between me and Lisa that violates morality, and my heart has no room for her, it's all for you.”Witnessing his drastic actions, Emily had a bit of trust so she obediently let him help her sit down.Kevin pointed to the photo at the airport and confirmed that those were his legs and that he pulled Lisa's suitcase because her legs were injured after saving him from a terrible accident.“You never told me about the accident.” Emily spoke up indignantly.“I'm afraid you'll worry. During those days, I was in so much pain that my face was distorted and I didn't have the strength to have
Each day passed quietly, the day after tomorrow was the day of surgery and tomorrow, Emily had to be hospitalized to prepare for surgery with Brian.To be honest, she was very worried. She wasn't worried about herself because the doctor had assured her that she wouldn't be in pain, but she was worried about Brian's probability of success.She knows that even though surgeries are guaranteed, there will still be small mistakes that can happen.Since the night Kevin refused to take Daisy away, Emily saw that Daisy's eyes seemed to be avoiding her, but she didn't care much.“What time will you leave tomorrow?” Kevin asked while patting her back to soothe her to sleep because he saw her tossing and turning.“I'll start leaving at seven o'clock in the morning, I'll have time to kiss you good morning.” She replied lazily.“Yes, if you're gone for a few days, you'll make up for it for me to have sex multiple times in a row in one night, okay?” He blew gently into her ear, teasing her.“Perver
When the party ended, Kevin's face was red from the alcohol. Emily only took a sip of wine at the beginning of the party so she was still alert and could drive him home.All the way home, he closed his eyes and didn't say a word, but as soon as she helped him back to the bedroom, he pushed her down on the bed and kissed her frantically.“Are you jealous, Emily?” He asked when the long kiss had just ended.“No.” She took a breath and replied.“You said you were afraid I would mistake my wife for another woman. Emily, you were so harsh just now. Tell me, am I right or wrong now?”Before Emily could answer, he leaned down again and continued to kiss her. His nimble hands took off the seductive dress from her body and the suit from his body, quickly becoming one with her.One sleepless night, in the morning, when the alarm clock rang for the third time, both of them still did not want to open their eyes.It wasn't until Sara called, reminding Kevin about this morning's meeting that he laz
By the time Kevin got home, it was nine o'clock. Seeing Emily sitting and swinging on the swing, he immediately walked over, placed the rose bouquet in her lap, and sat down in front of her, looking at her beautiful but expressionless face.“Last night I worked too late and fell asleep. My phone ran out of battery so I didn't know you called. I'm sorry.” He gently stroked her hair, speaking in a low voice.“After this, I won't call you anymore.” She put the bouquet aside and spoke indifferently.“Don't, Emily, if you don't care about me, who will care about me?”Kevin reached out and hugged Emily's waist, resting his head in her lap.She is his stop after a day of traveling outside. If she ignores him, how will he have the energy to work?Today, meeting Emma, the feeling of guilt towards Daniel deep in his heart has eased.He also wanted to tell his wife about it to make her feel more comfortable, but the words that Daniel told Emma stopped him.“In a few days, when I receive notice
After a good night's sleep, Kevin woke up and reflexively reached out to look for his wife to hug, but the space next to him helped him remember what happened last night, and quickly opened his eyes.His wife was not lying next to him, she sat close to the edge of the bed, leaning her head against the wall, her eyes still closed.Kevin slowly approached, his trembling hand raised to touch her face, but then he quickly withdrew his hand and left the bed, preparing to go to the company.Although Emily could hear and know every move of her husband, she still sat still, pretending to be asleep.It wasn't until she was sure that the man had left the room that she opened her eyes, dragged her aching body into the bathroom, and washed away what belonged to him clinging to her body.Next, she went to the pharmacy near her house to buy birth control pills.Right now, she can't let herself get pregnant. She didn't want the baby to become the reason for her and him to be entangled when his love
This incident was quite complicated so the deputy head of the IT department and technicians could not handle it.The person who is the best and can restore the system, the department head, is on his way here.Yesterday, he asked for leave to return to his hometown, but this afternoon he had to drive back to the city.Although the distance between the two places is not too far, it still takes an hour to enter the city. Not to mention the city's traffic jams are terrible at this time.“He said it would take about half an hour to get into the city.” A technician spoke up after ending the call with the head of the IT department.Knowing that standing here and waiting wouldn't bring any results, Kevin took Emily back to his office and had dinner with her.Fortunately, she was here to eat with him, otherwise, he probably wouldn't have been able to swallow it.“Everything will be okay.” Emily picked up a piece of meat, placed it in her husband's rice bowl, and said.“I know, I'm just afraid
At precisely three o'clock in the afternoon, Emily took a taxi to the city cemetery. White chrysanthemums are always the flowers she chooses to place on the graves of the deceased.After chatting in front of her parents' grave, she sat next to Daniel's grave, leaned her head on it, and closed her eyes.She wanted to tell him that he had entrusted her to the wrong person, but she couldn't.He didn't know and she couldn't blame him. He always wanted to give her the best things.She could no longer lean on that person's shoulder, so she had to come here to find some comfort.Until after five o'clock in the afternoon, Emily was still sitting in the cemetery, the wind blew gently and the quiet space made her fall asleep without knowing it.When she felt a hand patting her shoulder and heard a deep voice calling her, she suddenly woke up.“Have you been here long? How dare you sleep in a cemetery like this?” Kevin frowned at her but his voice was very gentle.Emily didn't answer, she held h
