“If you have time, you can learn to cook by yourself. Or you can hire a nanny. Eating out all day is unhealthy, which will cause problems in the long run.” Carl said and then stood up to leave.
“You’re not going to eat?” Emma asked in surprise.
“I am full, I go outside to smoke a cigarette. Enjoy yourself, when you finish, I will clean up.” Carl lightly said, and then lit a cigarette while going out of the door.
“Why is this man so strange? He did not speak when I am bad to him or when I am good to him.” Emma frowned and soliloquized, then she continued to eat looking at the dishes on the table. Carl’s cooking was indeed more delicious than the food eaten outside.
Carl took a cigarette outside and sat for a while and then came in. When he came in, Emma also just finished eating. Carl came over and began to clean up the dishes on the table.
Emma was embarrassed, after all, Carl was only her bodyguard, not the nanny, there was no reason to cook, do housework and serve her. And the most importantly Carl was a man, if he was a woman, Emma would feel less embarrassed.
“I’ll do it.” Emma stood up and said.
“Can you walk?” Carl ignored Emma, lightly said, and then continued to clean up.
This sentence choked Emma. She tried to be kind, but Carl was not grateful, so she said angrily, “How about you? Doesn’t your hand hurt?”
“No, if you don’t want to trouble me, you’d better go upstairs and lie down in bed as fast as you can. Your foot getting well will do me a great favor.” Carl lightly said, and then walked directly into the kitchen.
The next day early in the morning, Carl was still doing physical exercise in the yard. When he heard someone knocking on the iron door, he got up and went to the door, only to see Cindy standing at the door shaking the griphook on the iron door.
“Good morning, Miss Hu.” Carl covered with sweat and greeted to Cindy, and opened the door for her.
“What are you doing? Exercise or water the flowers?” Cindy saw Carl covered with sweat, asked the question.
“Nothing. Come on in.” Carl smiled and then went into the room with Cindy.
“Is Emma up yet?” Cindy asked.
“I don’t know. Just go up and look.”
“She said she sprained her foot yesterday, right?” Cindy asked.
“Yes, I suppose after applying medicine, it will be better today, but the pain is certain. It may take a day or two for recovering.” Carl lightly said, and then ready to take clothes to bathe.
“Wait, what are you goint to do?” Cindy asked.
“Me? I’m going to take a bath.”
“Take breakfast first, I brought breakfast to you and Emma. Take bath later or it will be cold. I went upstairs to call Emma, you can take it first. Cindy put the breakfast in her hand on the table, and then went upstairs to call Emma.
Carl took a look, and then still took the clothes into the bathroom. By the time he got out of the bathroom, the two women hadn’t gone downstairs. Men took bath fast, and Carl just took a simple shower, certainly it would be faster than women when they wash faces.
Carl directly checked the breakfast Cindy bought, there were several categories, porridge, steamed stuffed bun, bread and milk. Carl knew that the bread and milk must be for Cindy, he consciously picked up the steamed stuffed bun and porridge to eat.
Later he saw Cindy holding Emma walked down, Carl looked up at Emma, saw Emma walk posture, decided that she must be much better than yesterday, he continued to eat breakfast.
“Why did you go to the mountains? Even if you want to climb a mountain, do some preparation. Do you want to kill yourself by wearing high heels? Carl and I pretended to be a boyfriend and girlfriend, do you need to be self-abuse?” Cindy said while preparing breakfast for Emma, of course, What Emma ate was definitely milk and bread.
“Cindy, if you talk like this again, I will drive you out.” Emma said to Cindy with a black face.
“Ok, ok, I shut up, I came here to serve you, and you treat me badly. I am a cheap girl.” Cindy said, and then had breakfast. With these words, Cindy turned to Carl and said, “Carl, will you go to hospital since Frost will have an operation tomorrow?”
Carl was stunned and then said, “No.”
“No? Why? What is more important to you than your sister’s operation?” Cindy was a little angry.
“I’m not a doctor, and I cannot help.” Carl lightly said.
“Well, it doesn’t matter whether you are a doctor or not. Although you are not a doctor, you will give great comfort and confidence to Frost. Surgery is a great thing. No offence, but the success of the operation is related to Frost’s live. No matter how important your thing is, you should accompany her to give her comfort.”
“Frost said nothing, but actually I can tell that she is very afraid of the surgery tomorrow. She would like to have you with her tomorrow and you are her only living relative, who she cares the most. Carl, no matter how, you should go to the hospital with her tomorrow, hear that?”
Cindy dropped her porridge and said to Carl in righteousness. She was excited and angry. This is the first time Carl saw Cindy being angry. In the eyes of Carl, Cindy had no solemn appearance as a teacher, because she always was a cheerful and lively girl.
“We’ll see. I’m finished. Enjoy your meal.” Carl said quietly, and then got up to leave.
“No, what kind of is this person? His sister will have such an important operation tomorrow and he does not go to the hospital, does he do it right? I thought that he was good to his sister, and he had signed an indentured contract with you for his sister’s treatment. However, this is all a false impression. He did not care about his sister’s life or death at all, and I was totally wrong about him. I don’t want to eat, no appetite.” Cindy said to Emma angrily, threw the chopsticks on the table. She was very angry.
