A strong ray of light shone in from outside the window, making the dark bedroom light up. Emma got up and ran to the window.
She saw Archie walk out of the stable car. He was still elegant and graceful.
Her heart tightened for no reason. Emma turned around and turned on the light. Maybe because she felt guilty, she did not want Archie to see anything unusual.
“Ouch!” Because she was running so fast and the bedroom was too dark, her leg rubbed one of the feet on the table. It was so painful that she called out.
However, she still turned around and ran to turn on the light. Once the bedroom was lit, she heard the faint sound of Archie and Uncle Suan’s conversation.
It seemed like they were talking about something, but she couldn’t hear what they were talking about.
No matter what it was, Emma felt very sad in her heart. Would Archie ask Uncle Suan about her eating condition again?
This man really cared too much.
Previously, she was still angry with him, but slowly, there was a person who worried that she ate less every day, which made her no longer dislike him.
Emma’s nose ached for no reason, and her eyes reddened without any backbone.
After the question in the living room ended, she heard the man calmly walking upstairs.
Emma quickly walked to the sofa and pretended to have just woken up.
However, the knee that she had scraped at the foot of the table made it very difficult for her to walk. She really deserved it. What was she panicking about? She did not betray Archie but was confessed by Yoseph. She only knew that his real wife had come back. This. . .
Alright, it had a lot to do with her.
The bedroom door opened from the outside. Emma was already lying on the sofa pretending to be asleep in a very attractive position.
The moment Archie entered, he saw Emma who did not even have a thin blanket on her body. Her handsome face instantly turned ugly. He took a very heavy step and pulled the blanket on the bed and directly smashed it on Emma’s body.
“Ah. . . What’s going on?” Emma only felt a strong wind blowing against her face. Next, a blanket appeared on her body, scaring her so much that she immediately opened her eyes wide.
Archie’s tone was unfriendly. “It’s good that you don’t have a cold. How dare you sleep here without covering anything? Did you know that the temperature outside had dropped? The air conditioner isn’t turned on either. Did you want me to stay awake in the middle of the night and accompany you to the hospital?”
Emma did not expect Archie to throw a temper at her. It was actually because he was afraid that she would catch a cold. Her whole body trembled again.
“Sorry, I. . . I just slept not long ago.” Emma actually did not get angry. That’s right. It was rare for someone to be so good to her. She was afraid that his attitude was not sincere enough and she did not get angry with him.
“What is this? It’s for me?” Suddenly, Archie’s cold and sharp eyes swept across the packaging on the sofa and took it over.
“Hey. . . ” Emma reacted and tried to grab it, but she was stopped by his gloomy eyes. “This is a tie for men?”
Emma was so scared that she panicked and immediately nodded, “Yes. . . Yes!”
“You bought it? It’s for me?” Archie asked narcissistically and even took out the tie to take a look.
Emma did not know what to do. If this was bought by Tasya for Yoseph, wouldn’t Archie know that she had seen Yoseph before?
When she thought of Yoseph’s words that made her scalp tingle, she didn’t dare let Archie know about it.
“Yes, I bought it for you. Do you like it? I also bought it when I was out shopping today. When I bought it, I found it very pretty.” Emma was already thinking in her heart. Tomorrow, she would ask Tasya where she bought this tie from. She could buy another one. This way, she should be able to cover up this lie.
“Count me in. You still have this husband in your heart!” The tense expression on Archie’s face inexplicably disappeared. There was actually a hint of joy on his face.
Emma laughed dryly, “You invited me to dinner again, gave me flowers, and even helped me twice. Of course I have to give you a gift to express my gratitude towards you.”
“I will take this and accept it!” As Archie spoke, he took the tie and walked towards his closet.
Emma’s stiff smile instantly turned bitter. ‘What should I do? I was really careless. I actually didn’t put the tie properly and let Archie see it. I was about to go crazy.’ thought her.
Emma moved to stand outside Archie’s clothes and hats. She saw him fold the tie and put it back into the box. Among his many neckties, there was a seat.
Her heart trembled for no reason as she watched the man cherish the things he had given her. This kind of feeling actually made people feel happy.
“Tomorrow, I have an appointment with Yoseph to play golf. You go with me.” Archie put away his tie and turned around. He took off his suit jacket and threw it on the sofa beside him. His fingers elegantly and naturally picked up the buttons of his black shirt. His voice casually rang out.
“Ah. . . Let me go!” Emma’s entire body became taut again. When she heard Yoseph’s name, she felt an inexplicable headache.
Archie was wearing a black shirt and had a different kind of evil and wild temperament. His temperament gave people a mysterious feeling, and the black color made him even more mysterious. This made Emma subconsciously look at him a few more times.
“You don’t want to go?” Archie narrowed his eyes. He could not think of a reason why she refused. Anyway, she was at home right now.
The reason he agreed to play football with Yoseph was also because he wanted to find an opportunity to take her out to relax. He didn’t expect that she would have such a reaction, so he was more or less a little disappointed.
“No, of course I want to go.” Emma lightly tapped the door frame with one hand and answered in a low voice.
“Then I will come back for lunch tomorrow and pick you up in the afternoon.” As Archie spoke, he took off his black shirt in an extremely wild manner, revealing the essence of a strong body. Emma subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva and quickly turned around. “I will go downstairs first and wait for you to eat dinner.”
Archie raised his eyebrows and looked at her. He saw the shyness in her eyes and his thin lips curled up for no reason. Her smile was very charming and beautiful.
He didn’t know why, but. . . After she was at home, the number of times Archie went home had obviously increased, and the time had also become more accurate.
Archie’s mood turned for no reason. He pulled on his sleeping gown and walked towards the bathroom. His handsome face that had previously been frozen now had a hint of the feeling of staying at home.
Emma sat on the sofa in the living room in a daze. On the huge television across from her, there was a funny variety show being played. The audience laughed so hard that they leaned back. As an audience member outside the television, she had a frown on her face.
Are we going to see Yoseph again tomorrow? Oh my god, why is it like this?
During dinner, Emma heard Archie talking to Uncle Suan. He seemed to be saying that he would be back for lunch tomorrow. She also mentioned that Yoseph had asked him to play football tomorrow.
Emma was sensitive to the point of this sentence. It was Yoseph who asked Archie to play football. Oh my god, what was Yoseph trying to do?
It seemed that she really should find a chance to remind Yoseph tomorrow to stop pestering him. Coincidentally, Yoseph also had a weakness in her hands, right?
The night was cool and Emma leaned against the bed. Under the light from the wall lamp, she flipped through a draft.
She decided to find a new job in two days. It was not suitable for her to be bored at home every day.
Archie went to the study, but he came back very soon. He saw that she was still reading the manuscripts. His eyes were slightly deep. He reminded her, “Don’t look at things under such dark lights. Do you not want your eyes anymore?”
Emma was stunned for a moment before closing the manuscripts. She put them aside and softly said, ‘Don’t read under such a dark light. Do you not want your eyes anymore?’ “Archie, I have decided to find a job again.”
Archie’s handsome face stiffened and his voice became cold. “I originally wanted to buy over Miuccia International and let you take care of it. It was you who said no.”
Emma was shocked. She did not expect him to buy over Miuccia International for her, but not because of her relationship with Jimmy. It was because he wanted to give Miuccia International to her?
“Archie, why are you so good to me? Good makes me not used to it.” Emma subconsciously pulled the blanket with her small hands. She did not dare to look into his eyes and only asked in a low voice.
“Does this count as being good to you? You are too easily satisfied.” Archie cast a strange glance at her and sat on the bed.
Emma self-deprecatingly said, “Maybe other people are not easily satisfied, but I feel very satisfied. Ever since I was young, other than my grandmother, you have been the best to me.”
When Archie heard her words, it was obvious that his strong body tensed up. He turned to look at her and saw that her eyes were filled with tears.
“If my investigation is correct, your grandmother has been gone for more than ten years.” Archie’s heart skipped a beat for no reason. It hurt a little.
What kind of life did this woman live in Quinsley Family? How could she say something so pitiful?
When mentioning her grandmother, Emma could not hold back her tears anymore. They dripped down and her voice was choked with sobs. “Yes, when I was seven years old, she left because of illness.”
The large palm reached over and gently patted her head twice. “Alright, stop crying. I promise you. I’ll treat you well in the future.”
“No, I’m not worth it for you to treat me like this.” Emma was afraid of accepting his kindness. She was afraid that it would become a debt in the end. The more she owed, the more she would not be able to repay it.
Archie gently pulled her delicate body over. He held her little face, which was covered in tears, with both hands. His thin lips kissed down without any explanation. The kiss was soft and deep until it made her cry.
Emma’s beautiful eyes opened wide. She had been kissed by Archie many times, but he had never been so gentle like this. She could not resist it.
“I want to be good to you.” After finishing this kiss, Archie said in a domineering manner.
Emma’s face had already turned red from embarrassment. She was gasping for breath. The words that fell beside her ear made her heart beat faster, and her mind went blank.
Obviously, she tacitly agreed.
Although she did not know which eye Archie saw that she tacitly agreed, he especially missed her tonight and felt that he could not wait a second longer.
Emma’s last weak resistance turned into a medicinal effect to liven things up. It made Archie love her enough for once.
