“Clara!” he was angry, “What, you’re heartbroken knowing that Hank is down and out and lonely? Want to save him?”
I frowned, “Dennis, what are you talking about?”
“No?” He sneered, “You pushed me on Sheila and went to the hospital today to see Hank, didn’t you?”
I froze, not knowing what to say for a moment, and couldn’t help but say, “Sheila is beautiful and outstanding, both in looks and talent, she is an extremely outstanding being …”
He sneered, “Oh! Do I have to thank you for going to so much trouble for me? You are really good, others try to do everything not to cheat on their husbands, but you are trying to push your husband to another woman, do you think I should thank you?”
He was forced speechless. I knew what to say for a while looked up at him, could not help but feel some hard feelings.
“I didn’t want to push you away. Yesterday, I just thought you had something to talk about, so I took the initiative to walk away, and when I went back you were gone, so I came back on my own. Today I really didn’t want to meet Hank on purpose. I just met in the hospital, Dennis. I didn’t want to push you away. I just didn’t know what to do!”
His face eased slightly, his eyes softened, sighed and pulled me helplessly, “I’m sorry. I was too impulsive.”
I lowered my eyes and shook my head lightly, pulled myself out of his body and went into the bathroom.
The love that was evenly matched can go on. We were already too far apart from each other.
The cold liquid spilled over my body. I was in a bit of a trance, what was the next step to take?
I was at a loss.
I was in the bathroom for a long time before I came out and he was smoking on the balcony. If it were usual, I might have gone over and gotten into his arms and softly told him not to smoke, but at this time I just wiped my hair and laid back on the bed.
The faint scent of tobacco wafted through the bedroom, and I hadn’t gotten over my cold, so I coughed fiercely for a while.
Probably the sound was a little intense, he extinguished the cigarette butt, came in, poured water for me, and smooth my back, “Have you taken the medicine?”
I shook my head, “The doctor said it’s not a big deal, no need to take medicine all the time. It’s not good for my body.”
He frowned slightly, but did not say much, and when he saw that I had stopped coughing, he got up and went to the bathroom.
After the breath, I lay on the bed, eyes closed and ready to sleep. There was no way to fall asleep.
If I did not sleep, he will come out later. I did not know what I can talk to him.
So I had to pretend to fall asleep.
Half an hour later.
The bathroom door was opened, he came out, after a sound, the position beside him was pressed, he lay down.
I thought he would reach out and put his arm around me, but no, the big bed seemed extraordinarily empty and spacious.
When I woke up, Dennis was no longer there.
I was still a little sleepy. I felt my phone and looked at the time, 6:00 am. Maybe I can still sleep a little.
The bedroom door was opened and footsteps came.
A moment later, I noticed someone was beside me. It was Dennis’ voice, “Clara, get up.”
I opened my eyes and saw him sitting on the edge of the bed, dressed in black and stern.
I turned on my side, resting my arm and half-squinting at him, “You’re not going to the office?”
He smiled lightly, “I’ll go later, get up and have something to eat. Are you going to the Lewis family to see Folly later?”
I nodded, a little sleepy, “I’ll be there later, no delay.”
He pulled me up from the bed, sat on the bed. He looked at me and said, “Then go early and we’ll have lunch together?”
I held my somewhat tired face, nodded my head, a little sleepy, and said, “Yes!”
Looking at me, he smiled a little lightly, raised his hand against my chin. “little confused.”
I opened my eyes to look at him and exhaled, “Go to work now!”
It was a good thing Clariana had someone to drive her school, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to get out of bed this morning.
I thought he was going to leave right after he went out, but within a few minutes, he came in.
He picked me up and said, “Let’s go out together, I’ll drop you off at the Lewis family later.”
I was a little confused, “The Lewis family and the company are not in the same direction.”
“Not a problem!” As we spoke, he had already warmed up the water on the sink and gave me a blossom water, and he instructed me to rinse my mouth.
This picture looked like a father taking care of his disabled daughter.
I ate breakfast and got in the car.
I did not sleep enough, leaning on the car window glass against the face to close the eyes.
At the crossroads, red light. Dennis reached out and pulled me back into the seat, “Cool!”
I tilted my head to look at him, still sleepy, “Where are we going?”
He smiled lightly, “Take a nap first, when you wake up, you’ll be there.”
I nodded and closed my eyes to rest.
The Lewis family.
When Dennis was ready to call me, I was already awake and staring at the cars outside.
It was not a full moon party today. Why were there so many people here? So going now would not keep Folly busy.
But I thought too much. Dennis had something going on at work and had to go first. I stood outside the gate and before I went in, Luna saw it.
I ran over to her, with a smile on my face, “Folly said yesterday that you’d probably be coming over in the next few days, but I didn’t expect to come over today.
There were a lot of people sitting in the hall, and when they saw Luna dragging me in, some people came up to say hello, and some were curious about who I was.
Luna was pulling me in and introducing me one by one. I was not here to socialize, and when I was free, I went to see Folly.
The place where Folly was recuperating was very quiet, except for two nannies who took care of the children, there was no one else.
She was lying on the bed, probably just after breastfeeding, the baby was sleeping, she was a little dazed and leaning on the bed singing.
When she heard the movement, she looked up and saw that it was me, but she was so excited that she was ready to get up from the bed, but the nanny pulled her down.
“Miss Lewis , you still can not get out of bed and walk around, to have to rest a few days.”
She looked at me very innocently and pitifully said, “Clara, look, how pathetic I am.”
I smiled lightly, went to the bed and sat down. My eyes fell on the child, asleep. Just a few days after the birth of the child, the face was a little wrinkled.
“Don’t look, it’s ugly. I blame Zack for being ugly. He didn’t inherit my beauty at all.”
Although Folly complained, she was full of love looking at the child.
I smiled lightly, with a little envy feeling “Newly-born baby is like this. Few days later, he will be better.”
