The room was too quiet. Archie raised his eyebrows slightly. The lights in the bedroom were not turned on, but the bathroom was brightly lit.
Archie took a deep step forward and slightly pushed open the bathroom door. In the hot and foggy water, the lazy little girl in the bathtub was enjoying herself.
Her eyes instantly darkened and there was not a trace of light in his eyes. What followed was a strong desire.
He didn’t know what was going on. Archie’s self-control would always lose control when facing this tender and snow-white woman.
Even though she was lying there quietly and doing nothing, that charming posture still hit Archie’s heart, causing his blood to boil.
It seemed like her menstruation period had passed. Otherwise, she wouldn’t dare to lie in the bathtub and take a bath openly.
Actually, Archie thought too much. Emma was currently in the last two days of her menstruation period, and it was only because of this that she dared to lie in the bathtub so freely.
Just as Emma was about to get up, she could not help but sneeze. She wiped the tip of her nose and realized that she had started to have a runny nose.
“It can’t be!” Emma whispered. Ever since she was young, her body had been weak. It was said that she had just been born and had been frozen. She had not drunk a mouthful of breast milk before. Therefore, her constitution had deviated since she was a child. From the time she remembered things, she knew that she often went to the hospital and there was no shortage of medicine.
Later on, when she went to middle school, she began to realize the various disadvantages of her weak body, so she actively trained herself. Slowly, her body became slightly more normal, but it was still easier for her to catch a cold than normal people, and her resistance was too weak.
Emma lowered her head and tried to wipe her body. After wiping it dry, she turned around to get her pajamas. Suddenly, she met a pair of dark and obscure black eyes.
“Ah. . .” As if she was frightened, Emma let out a cry of alarm and instinctively pulled her pajamas to cover her body. Her beautiful eyes were filled with resentment. “Archie, when did you stand here? You are too much. How can you peek at me bathing?”
Archie was fascinated by it, but he was woken up by her scream. He said lightly, “Who said I was peeking? I was clearly looking at it openly and clearly.”
“You’re simply too abnormal!” Emma’s entire person was in a bad state. Her small face was so shy that it was as if blood was dripping from it, and her ears were burning.
She did not know how long this man had been standing there and how long he had looked at her. But when she thought that she was seen by him just like that, her heart was filled with resentment.
“Which part of your body that I haven’t seen it on you? What are you ashamed of?” Archie’s face darkened slightly, and his tone became stiff.
Emma was so angry that she did not want to talk to him. She turned around and quickly put on her pajamas.
Archie actually knew that his behavior just now was a little shameful, but it was all because her figure was too good. He glanced at her and couldn’t move away.
“Move aside!” Emma’s small face was still angry. It was too disappointing. It was not easy for her to take a bath and this man even looked at her.
Archie really made way for her in a gentlemanly manner. He looked at her long little face. He frowned and said, “If you feel that you are at a disadvantage, you can look back. I am about to take a bath now.”
“I’m not as funny as you.” Emma was so angry that she cried. This man was so narcissistic. Did he really think that his body was perfect enough to become a scenery?
Archie did not get angry. Instead, he laughed. His laughter was deep and heavy, and it carried the unique charm of a man. “It’s your business if you don’t want to see it. Don’t say that I wronged you.”
“I’m afraid it will hurt my eyes!” Emma did not hesitate to ridicule him.
Archie snorted disapprovingly. He took his bathrobe and walked into the bathroom. He did not close the door, but left a small gap, as if he had deliberately left it there.
Emma was about to go crazy. What kind of man did she marry? His taste was so bad that she could not tolerate it.
“Achoo!” When Emma was angry, she sneezed a few more times. Her nose was itchy and she did not feel good.
When Archie came out, he saw that she had already gone downstairs. He laughed at himself. It was the first time he had a woman who disliked his figure so much.
However, Emma’s straightforward and cute nature made Archie inexplicably have a better impression of her. Cats who were too obedient were boring. Only wild cats that were hard to tame had more fun to conquer.
Emma sat on the sofa in the living room and held a magazine in her hand. She was looking at the fashionable clothing that was popular during the season.
She did not know that in the past, there were only two kinds of magazines in the living room of Grafton Family, politics and finance. But ever since she came, the latest fashion magazines in every season would be piled on the small bookshelf beside the sofa with those magazines.
It was Archie who asked Uncle Suan to order these magazines, because he knew Emma would like them.
However, Emma, who was careless and ignorant, wouldn’t care about these small details.
She flipped open a page and saw a long and long passage. Jimmy’s figure appeared, as well as the five dresses that he had designed recently.
Emma’s eyes were slightly dazed. Jimmy’s return to China and development, she really did not know if it was a good thing or a bad thing. She saw that he was put in an important position in Miuccia International and had more development stage. Now even the magazine had his face on it. Emma was happy for him from the bottom of her heart.
Sighing lightly, she closed the magazine and looked at the lights outside the hall. She was somewhat lost in thought.
At the staircase of the second floor, the man had already stood there and looked at her for two minutes. From the angle from top to bottom, he naturally saw the magazine page that she had just flipped through. His handsome face was as gloomy as iron.
However, he did not expose her seemingly disappointed thoughts. He only walked downstairs with heavy steps.
When he walked downstairs, Uncle Suan came over and asked, “Young master, dinner is ready. Do you need it now?”
“Yes!” Archie answered indifferently, then paused and looked at Uncle Suan. “When you buy magazines in the future, carefully choose one for me. As long as it has anything to do with the Miuccia International Studio, you are not allowed to take it back.”
Uncle Suan was stunned. He did not expect the young master to give such an order.
“Okay, I will choose carefully.” Uncle Suan quickly nodded.
Emma, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, naturally heard Archie’s cold words. Her eyes darkened, and she threw the magazine aside. She stood up and walked to the dining room.
Archie ignored the depressed look on her face and sat down in the head seat.
The delicious food was served to the table. Emma silently ate the food and did not say a word.
Archie also ate elegantly. His pair of sunken eyes glanced at Emma who was sulking beside him from time to time.
Seeing that she only ate half a bowl, he put down his chopsticks and stood up. He frowned.
“I went out in the afternoon and had some food. I’m not very hungry.” Emma seemed to have guessed that he had an opinion and quickly explained.
“What are you going out for?” Archie’s voice was low, but it sounded like he was questioning.
“Meet my friend, a woman!” After Emma finished speaking, she walked upstairs without looking back.
Archie’s handsome face became even more stiff. Uncle Suan watched from the side and could only shake his head and sigh. Young master was not easy to get along with, and young mistress was a straightforward person. She shivered like this every day, making him, as a bystander, feel anxious for them.
After Emma returned to the bedroom, she sat on the bed and played with her phone to watch the news.
Vaguely, she heard the man’s steady footsteps disappear from the study and her tensed heart relaxed.
Maybe he had caught a cold. His head was a little dizzy. After looking at his phone for half an hour, his eyelids could not bear it anymore. He hugged the blanket and fell into a deep sleep.
Archie took care of some business in the study and returned to his bedroom. When he saw the bulging small bag on the side of the bed and her tired face, he looked a little more relaxed.
He went into the bathroom and washed up before lying down on the other side.
They were so close, but the distance between their hearts was getting wider and wider.
Archie was not a proactive person, but when he faced Emma, his personality seemed to have changed. He wanted to take the initiative in everything, including getting close to her and hugging her.
Emma slept soundly. Although she was covered by the blanket, it was hot and cold all of a sudden. It was until a warm big hand reached over and touched her waist and abdomen. It pulled her towards a burning chest.
Although Emma was tired and could not open her eyes, she knew that Archie had come over in a domineering manner. But she did not have the strength to resist and could only let him hug her and continue sleeping.
After sleeping until midnight, Emma suddenly had a high fever. Archie woke up and turned on the bedside lamp. He saw Emma sleeping soundly, her face was red, but her forehead was covered in a cold sweat, and her body trembled from time to time.
“Emma, wake up. What happened to you?” Archie reached out and pushed her a few times, but he could not shake her. He touched her forehead and only felt a wave of boiling heat. He was shocked. It was obvious that she had caught a cold and had a fever.
“Wake up, you are having a fever. We have to go to the hospital immediately.” Archie was not sleepy at all. He gently patted her face and forced her to wake up.
“No, I want to sleep!” Emma answered in a daze and hugged the blanket even tighter.
Archie’s eyes were heavy. He quickly got up and put on his clothes. He did not wake her up. Instead, he wrapped her in a large sleeping gown and carried her horizontally. Then, he walked out the door.
Emma snorted twice but did not resist. Instead, she continued to lean on his chest tiredly and continued to sleep.
Uncle Suan was woken up by Archie. He took the car and accompanied them to the hospital.
“Young master, do you need to contact Dr. Carl?” Uncle Suan asked in a hurry.
Dr. Carl was a private family doctor of Grafton Family. Archie had a headache and brain fever. They basically asked him to come to their house to see a doctor.
“No need. It’s too late now. Let’s go to the hospital.” Archie was not a domineering king. He did not do anything to disturb people’s dreams in the middle of the night.
Uncle Suan did not say anything else. He drove to the hospital.
In the back seat, Emma was curled up in Archie’s arms. Sometimes it was cold, sometimes it was hot, and her head felt dizzy. Every time she caught a cold, it would be fierce and difficult for her to recover. It would drag on for many days.
“Uncle Suan, hurry up.”
“Young Master, the red light in front. . .”
“Charge through! Don’t stop!”
Archie felt anxious. He saw that this little thing’s condition was not too optimistic. If she continued to be like this, it will become worse.
