Ryan Campbell’s pov
I opened the door and brought the suitcase in. The darkness at home made me a little surprised.
I thought it was the little woman who rushed into my arms as soon as I came back, but the house was deserted.
I changed my shoes and walked into the room. When I saw no one in the living room, I immediately went upstairs and opened the bedroom. I thought she would be there, but I didn’t expect the quilt on the big bed to be placed flatly.
Where have you been so late? My father told me that she had been discharged from hospital.
I immediately took out my cell phone from my bag, which had no electricity, charged it and called her.

I was having dinner with Philip Matthews when the mobile phone in my bag rang. I didn’t pay much attention to it. I thought it might be Shirley.
I took out my mobile phone from my bag without delay. When I saw the number jumping on the screen, I was stiff and I still felt a little unbelievable.
I put my finger on the answer button, but it didn’t fall down. I don’t want to talk to him, so that he won’t appear when I need him most.
However, just as I hesitated, the phone stopped ringing and a missed call popped up.
“Why don’t you answer?”
The voice of Philip Matthews helped me get back to my thoughts. The heart of the meeting began to flutter again. Before I could answer, the phone rang again. This time, I did not hesitate to connect directly.
“Where are you?”
That familiar voice made my nose sour, and then I asked him stiffly, “what about you?”
“At home.”
Hearing this answer, my eyes were immediately wet, and I felt like I was dreaming. I looked forward to his return for a long time, and all the resentment and hatred in my heart turned into missing in this moment. “How did you come back?”
Hearing her sobbing voice, Ryan Campbell wrung his eyebrows and said, “come back, where are you? I’ll pick you up.”
“I’ll go back by myself.” I said this stiffly. There was a silence on the phone for two seconds. I cut off the phone. I immediately picked up my bag and stood up. I said apologetically to Philip Matthews, “I’m going back.”
Philip Matthews smiled and said, “you left me here before the dishes were served? Did you treat me to dinner like this?”
I was in a hurry, revealing my eagerness to meet Ryan Campbell. “I’m sorry, or I’ll invite you again next time. I have to go.”
Philip Matthews nodded softly
I was sitting in the taxi, and my heart was beating faster because of him again. I was afraid that I would be late and he would not be there. I even felt that all this was not true.
After a few minutes’ drive, I also felt as if it had been a long time. Looking at the number of elevators rising bit by bit, I was getting closer and closer to his footsteps.
When I was typing the password on the door, the door opened immediately before I had finished. As soon as I looked up, I saw the face I missed day and night.
The tears in the eyes condenses little by little into bean sized beads, and then slides down from the eyes.
Ryan Campbell quickly reached out his hand to wipe my tears before they flowed out of my cheek. Then he reached out his hand to pull me in and held me tightly in his arms. He asked softly and with a little worry, “where have you been so late?”

I just feel aggrieved and pour my thoughts into the tears at this moment
Ryan Campbell hugged me heartily and let me cry in his arms. After crying for a while, my hands clenched into fists and beat him on the chest, with a sense of venting. He also let me beat him. That strength was not painful or itchy to him.
After I let off steam for a while, I raised my head and looked at him with tears in my eyes. I sobbed and asked, “how did you come back?”
Ryan Campbell wiped the tears on my face with his hand and asked me gently, “miss me?”
When I heard this, I pushed him away, wiped the tears from my face with the back of my hand, and said with red eyes, “I thought you were dead!”
Ryan Campbell took me in his arms again, helped me to sit down on the sofa, picked up a paper towel and helped me wipe my tears while saying, “OK, don’t cry. I’m sorry to worry you.”
Ryan Campbell then held me up and said, “you haven’t said where you went so late. You don’t plan to go home until I come back?”
I glanced at him, full of resentment. I just looked at him and said nothing.
Ryan Campbell sighed helplessly, sat down beside me, hugged me from behind, and asked me in my ear, “how can you forgive me?”
I turned my head to look at him and said seriously, “unless you explain clearly what you are doing these days!”
“It’s all tedious work. Do you want to hear it?”
“I don’t believe it!”
“Otherwise, what else can I do?”
I thought in silence: “you can’t do this anymore.”
“OK, don’t be angry.”
“I’m still angry.”
I was about to leave with my shoes on. Ryan Campbell grabbed me and said, “wife, I haven’t come back all these days. Are you willing to leave me alone?”
Hearing this, my nose pricked. In fact, he might have a tough life. Otherwise, he would not be so haggard when he came back, and his beard would grow out. How could he tolerate being so untidy? He must be really busy.
From his point of view, he is also very hard.
He went to take a bath, but I knew he certainly didn’t have time for dinner. In addition, Philip Matthews and I didn’t eat much when we had dinner.
After looking at the ingredients in the refrigerator, I chose what i was good at, so as not to make it too difficult for him to swallow.
Ryan Campbell came out from the bath. Seeing that I was in a hurry in the kitchen, he couldn’t help laughing. Then he walked in and said, “I’ll handle it. You go outside and have a rest. Tell me what you want.”
I turned my head to look at him, and refused to put down the spatula in my hand. I glanced at his chin and said, “go and shave.”
Ryan Campbell raised his hand to touch his chin and asked me, “is it ugly?”
I kept turning the dishes in the pot without answering.
He stood behind me for a while, and I was still nervous. I thought he was staring at my cooking skills and thought he would make a very professional comment. However, he walked out of the kitchen not long after.
I breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the things on the flow table, and thought about the next steps.
Without the imagined cold war and quarrel, we had dinner in harmony.
I slept in his arms at night, and the nightmare did not appear again.
The next morning, he was not busy going to the company and accompanied me to sleep until I woke up naturally. Then he made breakfast for me and took me to the hospital for review.
The due date is approaching day by day. I am not the only one who is nervous, but also Ryan Campbell, who is about to become a father.
The doctor said that both the child and the mother were healthy
Ryan Campbell didn’t ask me what happened that day, and I didn’t want to think about it.
Now mark Collins is in prison, and my nightmare is over.
“Come to the company with me, and I’ll make up for what I’ve lost in the past few days.”
I didn’t want to be at home alone, so I followed him to the office to work with him.
In the evening, I followed him off duty. After dinner, I lay on Ryan Campbell’s lap and read a book, while Ryan Campbell was holding documents from the company.
We were doing our own things. The mobile phone at the bedside suddenly started ringing.. I thought it might be Shirley hunt.
I was too lazy to move. I looked up at Ryan Campbell and said, “take it for me.”
Ryan Campbell looked down at me, extended his hand to take the phone over, and glanced at the phone on it. It was just a string of numbers. However, Ryan Campbell was very familiar with this string of numbers. He held the phone up to me and asked me: “what are you doing with him?”
I don’t understand: “who?”
“Jeffrey Scott.”
I was also confused. I reached for my mobile phone and said, “what is he looking for me?”
“Hands free.”
After a pause, I just threw my mobile phone to him: “maybe it’s for you. Is your mobile phone disconnected again?”
Ryan Campbell didn’t bother me either. He pressed the answer button, and then Jeffrey Scott’s voice sounded: “sister in law, are you asleep?”
“What are you doing with her at night?” Ryan Campbell spoke directly and asked coldly.
Jeffrey Scott at the other end got goose bumps: “Ryan, you want to scare me to death.”
“Are you still afraid of death? If you dare to call her, I thought you were looking for death.”
“Ryan, don’t get me wrong. I want to ask my sister-in-law for help.”
“What help in the evening? Can you go to the hospital yourself if you are sick?”
I said next to him, “ask him what it is.”
Ryan Campbell gave me an angry look: “what can it be?”
“My sister-in-law hasn’t slept yet? Ryan, please give her the phone. I beg you.”
On the contrary, I was curious about what Jeffrey Scott could do for himself, so I sat up from the bed and directly grabbed the mobile phone from Ryan Campbell: “what’s the matter?”
“Well… Ceres’s birthday is a few days away. I want you to help me pick out some gifts, which are the ones that little girls prefer.”
“I don’t know what sister Ceres likes.” In fact, I also want to say that if someone has a boyfriend on his birthday, he should not get involved. But I think Jeffrey Scott is still thinking about these things at such a big night. I must have put Ceres in mind. I have no good intention to break his plan.
“Why don’t you let her choose for herself, sister-in-law? You can go shopping with her or observe if she likes anything.”
I was thinking seriously and still thinking about the plan. The man around me coughed a little. I turned my head and saw Ryan Campbell staring at me. I hurriedly said, “I’ll talk when I go to the company tomorrow, or I’ll be abused.”
Jeffrey Scott smiled and deliberately raised his voice and said, “Ryan, don’t bully my sister-in-law.”
As soon as Ryan Campbell grabbed my mobile phone, he hung up the phone and began to scold me: “You can’t take care of myself well. Do you have time to meddle in other people’s affairs?”
“But he came to me personally. Anyway, he is also one of your subordinates.”
Ryan Campbell sneered and held me in his arms. “When did you know to give me face?”
With a smile, I turned around to hold him and immediately changed the topic: “husband, I’m sleepy.”
Just calling him “husband” dispelled all the anger in Ryan Campbell’s heart, he put away all the books and documents on the bed, and said, “have you finished today’s class?”
“Not yet. I can’t. With this big handsome guy beside me, I’m not in the mood.”
Ryan Campbell chuckled and pinched my nose. “Turn off the light.”
“Wait.”
Ryan Campbell looked at me puzzled: “what’s wrong?”
With a bad smile, I looked at him and said, “I want to see you more.”
The lights in the room were turned off, leaving only the small desk lamp at the head of the bed. He looked down at me and said, “Honey today? You’re so sweet.”
Ryan Campbell came close to me: “I’ll try the honey.”
I pushed him with my hand and said with a smile, “no, you are poisonous.”
Ryan Campbell just touched my lip, covered me with a quilt and said, “is it poisonous?”
I smiled with embarrassment and joked, “I’ll die of poisoning when I get up in the morning.”
“Give me another kiss.”
“No.”
In the night, we whispered, laughed, and finally hugged each other to sleep.
