Emma placed her hands on the glass stand in the bathroom and looked at the marks on her snow white skin. Her small face turned red.
“Damn Archie!” Emma rubbed hard and wanted to rub away the marks, but she found it was futile.
“How can I have the face to go out and see people?” Emma muttered in annoyance.
After washing up, Emma returned to the bed and laid down powerlessly on the bed. She just wanted to close her eyes and sleep.
Her entire body was sore and she was so tired that she did not want to move anymore.
Although she tried to close her eyes as tightly as possible, the remaining breath in the bedroom reminded her at all times. Just now, she and Archie were as passionate as fire.
After Archie finished washing up, he came out and saw that she had already fallen asleep with the blanket wrapped around her. He was slightly startled and his thin lips rose. After lying on the other side, he quickly hid behind her and the large palm very naturally pulled her over.
Emma finally relaxed, but she could not fall asleep again. Thinking back to her weak and crying appearance just now, would Archie laugh at her?
“Why aren’t you sleeping again?” Archie felt that she did not fall asleep, so he raised his eyebrows slightly.
“I want to go to the Country Y, is that okay?” Emma suddenly opened her mouth and asked him.
Archie frowned. “What are you going there for? What’s the matter?”
“My mother is in Country Y. She married someone there. I want to go and see her.” When Emma spoke, she could not hide her grief.
“Just now, you only said that your grandmother is good to you. Is your mother not good to you?” Archie sensed that she did not mention anything about her parents.
Emma could not help but have tears in her eyes. Her voice became sad again. “I have never seen my mother since I was a kid. I also do not know if she will be good to me.”
“Your mother did not come back to look for you?” Archie could not believe it. Although he knew that she was the granddaughter of Quinsley Family, he did not know that she was a granddaughter who was abandoned by her parents. She was really pitiful.
“No, she never came back. I have asked my grandfather many times, but he scolded me for not knowing what’s good for me. He said that my existence would drive my mother crazy. He said that my father had ruthlessly hurt my mother and told me that it would be best for me not to look for her for the rest of my life.” Speaking of these depressing things, Emma felt as if a knife had been cut through her heart. She was in so much pain that she wanted to die. Other people’s children were treasures in the eyes of their parents, but she was trash that their parents hated to abandon.
Archie subconsciously hugged her tightly and kissed her little head with his thin lips. He said in a low voice, “I did not think that your background was so pitiful. If I had known earlier, I would not have humiliated you like that at the wedding. Emma, let’s hold another wedding.”
“Emma?”
The little body in his arms involuntarily trembled. This was the first time Archie called her by her name like this.
In the past, he had always called her by her name.
“No need, it’s too wasteful and troublesome.” What else could Emma say? That wedding was indeed her nightmare, but now, she actually did not think about it anymore.
“I have decided. At the end of this month, I will hold another wedding with you.” Archie insisted.
Emma could not help but turn around from his arms and face him. The distance between them was so close that both of their auras were intertwined. A kind of love spread out and their eyes reflected each other.
“Archie, what do you like about me? Can you tell me?” Emma blinked her black eyes and asked him.
She had wanted to ask this question at the candlelight dinner that day, but she did not have the time to ask.
“I don’t know. I just like you!” Archie couldn’t possibly say that two years ago, he liked to see her fall and reveal her underwear, right? Then she must scold him for being abnormal.
“I am just an ordinary person, and you are not ordinary. There’s a lot of beautifull girl on the street.” Emma started to laugh at herself.
“Then, help me grab some of them and take a look. Emma, don’t lack confidence. You are not ordinary. You are quite good-looking.” Archie finally did not hesitate to praise her.
Emma was really very good-looking and very patient to look at. The more he looked at her, the more he moved. With her pure and innocent temperament, coupled with her innocent smile, it gave someone the urge to rub her into their bones.
Emma’s face was red from the heat. It was the first time Archie praised her for being good looking. she was really shocked. In Quinsley family, A few of her cousins had been putting on makeup since they were young, which made Emma look very light and plain. Many men liked girls who were full of charm, but they were not interested in girls like her who were not pink at all.
“Alright, go to sleep. I will accompany you to Country Y to see your mother.” Archie gently kissed her forehead and forced her to sleep.
This sentence made Emma’s heart calm down. She hummed. This time, she finally did not sleep with her back to Archie. Instead, she hugged one of his arms, just like how she usually hugged a blanket. She put her face on his skin and felt warm, making her sleep at ease.
Archie stretched out his hand and helped her pull up some of the blanket before falling into a deep sleep.
That night, the flowers in the dream bloomed and bore fruit. It was very sweet and very moist.
Early in the morning, Emma overslept. Archie quietly left without waking her up.
Emma stretched her waist and prepared to get off the bed. However, the moment she lifted her leg, she pulled at the place she was making love last night and hissed twice.
After washing up, Emma subconsciously looked towards Archie’s closet. Suddenly, she saw that the tie box yesterday was empty. Archie actually wore that tie to go to work today.
Emma’s entire body stiffened and her brain buzzed. She quickly picked up her phone and called Tasya.
“Hello, Tasya, I have something to ask you. That… Where did you buy that tie?” Emma asked anxiously.
Tasya had just finished filming and was in the midst of putting on makeup. She answered her phone and asked curiously: “I asked someone to buy that tie overseas. We haven’t even entered this brand in our country yet.”
“Ah…” Emma’s mind buzzed and went blank.
“What’s wrong? Did you give my tie to Yoseph?” Tasya asked anxiously.
Emma frowned and pointed her finger at her head. She said apologetically, “Sya, I originally gave it to him. But Yoseph asked me to bring it back. Don’t be sad.”
“How could this be? Does he not like that tie?” Tasya was very disappointed and asked uneasily.
Thinking about it, it made sense. What kind of identity did Yoseph have? What kind of precious things did he not want? A mere tie that cost a few thousand dollars, how could it enter his eyes?
Emma was so tangled that she was about to go crazy. Tasya was sincere, but she was heartlessly rejected by Yoseph. Anyone would be very sad if they were in Yoseph’s shoes.
However, the problem now was not only Yoseph rejecting Tasya’s tie, but the misunderstood words Yoseph had said to her.
Emma had no choice but to keep this matter a secret for the time being. She was afraid that if she were to say it, Tasya would no longer treat her as a friend.
“Tasya, I’m really sorry. I can’t guess what Yoseph meant, but he really didn’t take it.” Emma gently comforted her good friend.
“How could this be? Emma, It’s not my wishful thinking? Could it be that he really doesn’t have a good impression of me? But why did he help me get into the crew again?” Tasya was very sad and lost. The dream of a wealthy family was shattered. How could she not be worried?
Emma was very anxious and did not know how to comfort her sad friend.
“Emma, since he withdrew, let’s forget about it.” Tasya’s tone was very depressed.
Emma said with some embarrassment, “Sya, there is one more thing. I wanted to tell you that Archie saw me bringing the tie back yesterday. He seemed to like it very much. I was wondering if you could sell it to me.”
Tasya was already in a very low mood, “Mia, if you want it then I will give it to you. Anyway, you gave me quite a lot of clothes last time. How about this, I am going to film now.”
Holding her phone, Emma felt extremely ashamed. Not only did she not help her best friend, she even took a tie for free.
After saying a lie and using a hundred lies to cover it up, Emma completely got the pain of lying.
Perhaps she should find a suitable time to explain to her best friend and believe that she would understand her.
At lunch time, Archie drove back in his car. The moment he got out of the car, he saw Emma standing in the garden in a daze.
Emma also turned her head to look at him. Less than ten meters away, their gazes crossed the flowers and plants and intertwined together.
A strange feeling invaded her heart and Emma’s entire body trembled for no reason as she quickly retracted her gaze.
Archie’s thin lips slightly raised and he walked towards her with heavy steps. He saw that she was holding a piece of tree leaf in her hand and was pinching it until it was deformed.
“Why are you standing here? Are you waiting for me?” Archie asked her with a proud smile.
Emma was embarrassed to admit what he was thinking. She pursed her lips and said, “Who said that? It rained yesterday and the air in the garden woke up.”
“Still not willing to admit it?” Archie’s large palm very naturally took her small hand over and wrapped it in his palm.
Emma’s little face turned red from embarrassment. She lowered her eyes but did not resist his grip.
The man’s palm was hot. In this kind of cold weather, it really warmed her heart.
“Let’s go in and eat first. There is still activity in the afternoon.” Archie said in a low voice and led her to the living room.
Emma nodded and followed him to lunch.
However, when she thought about meeting Yoseph in the afternoon, she became uneasy. She hoped that it was just a game and nothing would go wrong.
