Archie subconsciously reached out to hug her shoulders when he saw her frown from the pain.
The nurse was also so scared that her forehead was covered in sweat. After the needles were inserted, she quickly left.
Emma looked at the medicine bottle and sighed, “I really hope that this red spot of mine will disappear quickly. Otherwise, I won’t be able to face anyone anymore.”
“You have to believe Doctor Carl’s medical skills. He doesn’t have an undeserved reputation. If he says that you will be fine, then you will definitely be fine.” Archie comforted her in a low voice.
Doctor Carl, who was sitting not far away, shook his head and laughed. It was really rare to see Archie having such a gentle side.
James coughed dryly, as if it wasn’t appropriate for him to stand here. He could only speak in a low voice. “Young master, I’ll wait for you in the car downstairs!”
“Yes, you can go!” Archie raised his hand.
After James left, Doctor Carl also stood up. “I should go for ward rounds. You watch her. If she doesn’t have any medicine, ask the nurse to change!”
Archie looked gratefully at her. He glanced at Doctor Carl. “Thank you, Doctor Carl!”
“Yes!” After Doctor Carl accepted his offer, he opened the door and left.
Emma relaxed when she saw that there was no one else in the office. She leaned on the sofa and found the most comfortable person to lean on. Her eyes were tired.
Archie looked at her and then opened his mouth to explain what she said earlier about being jealous.
“Luisa was not invited by me. It was Yoseph who wanted to force Luisa to join us.”
Emma was stunned and her beautiful eyes blinked. “Really?”
As long as it was not Archie who invited her, she felt much better.
“Of course it’s true!” Archie nodded seriously, afraid that this little thing would doubt him again.
Emma smiled and said, “That’s good!”
At this moment, in the banquet hall on the first floor of Civada International, Luisa’s expression was extremely ugly. She could not see what was being performed on the stage.
Just now, she had also hurried over and naturally saw Emma who was covered in red rash. She looked like. . . Even though she was born with natural beauty, it was still very embarrassing and shocking.
Ordinary people didn’t even have the courage to approach her, afraid that they would be infected by her.
At that time, she secretly thought complacently that Archie and Yoseph would definitely not save her for the sake of their own safety.
However, she was still naive.
Archie and Yoseph had already gotten close to her, but Archie still carried her to the hospital on the spot.
This kind of visual shock gave Luisa a huge blow.
Was Archie’s feelings towards Emma really that deep? He didn’t even dislike her when she was sick?
Previously, she had thought proudly that she would destroy Emma this time, but the reality was the opposite. She gave Emma a chance to prove how much Archie loved her.
No matter how she thought about it, this was a face technique. It was disgusting no matter how she thought about it.
Tasya, who was sitting in the third row, also looked disgusting as if she had eaten a fly. Why did her plan fail to make Archie and Yoseph hate Emma? She even gave Emma a chance to be pampered by them?
This small accident did not affect the progress of the evening party. After Archie left, Yoseph took charge.
However, his handsome face was tense, and his thin lips were pursed into a line. It could be seen that he was also very angry.
Just now, Emma stood there with a panic-stricken face and the people around kept away from her. All of a sudden, she was like a lonely child as she stood there dumbstruck. That appearance really made one’s heart ache and feel pity for her.
Yoseph pinched the time and stood up. He walked to a quiet place and took out his phone to make a call.
The call connected, and Archie’s voice came. “I have sent her to the hospital. She is receiving an infusion. Don’t worry.”
“Is she sick or something? Is she okay?” How could Yoseph not be worried.
“She’s just allergic. She’ll be fine after two days of acupuncture.”
“Why is she suddenly allergic to all parts of her body? What is she allergic to?” Yoseph asked.
“Jasmine pollen, I suspect. Find someone to check the place where she was resting and see if there is the scent of the jasmine flower. If there is, you’d better check the surveillance camera to see who is behind this.” Archie’s tone was filled with a trace of anger.
“I will go and investigate. Take good care of her and don’t let her be alone again.” Yoseph hung up the phone after saying that.
Alone?
Archie lowered his eyes. His eyes were like the night sky, reflecting the face of the girl who was sleeping soundly in her arms.
After injecting the needle, the color of the red rash gradually became lighter, making her skin as delicate as jade.
She had been busy for the whole day and was obviously very tired. She leaned against the sofa and began to squint. Fortunately, he pulled her into his embrace in time, which made her sleep a little more at ease.
Archie held her in his arms like he was carrying a child. Emma quickly fell asleep.
Just now, when Yoseph mentioned a word, ‘she was alone!’
Yes, in the backstage of the Civada Meeting, when he rushed in, he saw her standing alone in the middle.
The panic and despair on her face was truly heartbreaking.
She subconsciously tightened her arms and hugged her tighter. She let out a low sound of sleep talking, as if she knew she was in his arms. Her small face rubbed against his chest like a kitten.
Archie’s lips curled up slightly. In fact, in his eyes, she was as cute and interesting as a child.
In total, he was seven years older than her. In the past, when one did not know the age difference, it would make one love another.
But at this moment, after seeing her sleeping peacefully like a baby, Archie could not ignore the determination in his heart to spoil her to the end.
No matter how time passed, he always knew that there was someone waiting for him to take care of her, and his heart ached for her.
In fact, Archie had seen many things in his eyes.
He would always remember how much this girl had sacrificed for him.
During the wedding, she had taken the initiative to admit that she had concealed the matter of her child. Now, for him, she had abandoned the Sandford Family and lived alone.
Her tiny body had a will that made people blush with shame. Even Archie felt ashamed.
Although he seemed to have unlimited glory, he would still take into account whatever he was doing.
However, this little thing was so persistent and deep in love with him.
Comparatively, he really felt that he was inferior.
But he would also use his own way of loving her, even if the path of love was full of twists and turns.
“No. . . No, don’t burn me. . . I’m not sick. . .” Just as Archie was lost in thought, the woman in his arms suddenly trembled. The words that came out of the lip sounded like a nightmare.
“Emma!” He immediately called her by her name, wanting to save her from the nightmare.
“Don’t burn me. . . It’s so hot!” Unfortunately, Emma, who was deeply immersed in the nightmare, only found that her hands and feet were tied to the wooden pole. Some people with blurry faces held torches and were about to light the dry firewood under her feet.
Archie looked at her lip trembling as he continuously muttered these terrifying words.
“Emma, wake up!” He immediately stretched out his hand to pat her small face, but he touched her small face and covered it with a thin layer of sweat.
This little woman must have been frightened just now, so she fell into this kind of terrible nightmare.
Archie’s handsome face was also filled with anxiety. He could not wake her up, but he could only watch her struggle helplessly in the nightmare.
Finally, Archie used his ultimate killing technique.
His thin lips pressed down and completely kissed her red lips.
Emma, who was in the depths of the sea, had her lips sealed and her breathing stagnated. She forcefully woke up from her dream.
When she opened her beautiful eyes, she saw an enlarged handsome face and her lip was being gently bitten by his warm lips.
“Ar. . . Archie!” Emma’s small face immediately turned red. She used one hand to push this man away. A pair of black and clear eyes swept across the man’s face. “Why did you kiss me?”
She just slept. Why did this man kiss her? No wonder she had difficulty breathing just now.
Archie watched as she finally woke up. His thin lips curved. “You were having a nightmare just now, dreaming that someone was going to set you on fire, right?”
“No way, how did you know?” Emma subconsciously reached out and covered her mouth. Could it be that she had made a fool of herself just now?
Archie coughed lightly and said seriously, “It was you who kept saying, don’t burn me, don’t burn me. You even said you were hot.”
“But is this the reason why you kissed me?” Emma was so ashamed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.
Did she really say these words just now? She clearly remembered that she was shouting at those people in her nightmare.
“Do I need a reason to kiss you?” Archie’s words made her choke.
Emma could only smile helplessly. “I really do not need a reason. But you. . . Can you kiss my face too?”
“I have also seen you look uglier. On the day of the wedding, your makeup was not good!” Archie teased her with a smile.
Emma’s beautiful eyes widened in an instant and became even more embarrassed. “So you remember my ghostly appearance that day. I thought you. . . Forgot about it.”
“Why are you hesitating about this?” Archie pointed at her little nose. “Have you slept enough? We should go back!”
Only then did Emma realize that the needle in her hand had been removed.
“Okay! Is your hand sore?” Emma was helped up by him and was surprised to find that she was sleeping in Archie’s arms.
She immediately had an embarrassed look on her face. She was clearly sleeping on the sofa just now.
“A little bit!” Archie smiled faintly and stretched his numb arms. “Let’s go. I’ll take you to dinner.”
“Wait a minute!” Emma grabbed his hand. “Archie, let’s not go out together. What if your grandfather. . . ”
Archie’s eyes stiffened. He raised his hand and tidied her messy hair. “When did you become so calm? Can’t you pretend to be confused for once and follow me out?”
“No, Archie, let’s keep a low profile!” Emma also wanted to go anywhere with him, but what Old Master Grafton said that day was like a sharp knife that was hanging on her heart, and could stab them at any time.
