Beloved Old Lover

After more than a week, Kevin’s health has also improved. Although he was still in pain and had to take painkillers continuously, he was able to talk and eat and could go to the bathroom by himself.

Emily only visited him twice, she followed Daniel. Although he could only say a few sentences to her, he felt that was enough. Luckily she did not have any injuries.

When he woke up, Daniel was next to him and his younger brother briefly told him that Leo lied to protect Emily from his mother’s wrath. So, when his mother asked him, he answered the same as the city president.

“You’ve been working hard for me. I plan to break up with you after Daniel gets married, release you, and no longer need to act in front of them.” Kevin took the piece of apple from Emma’s hand and said softly.

“Yes, there’s only one month left. You must recover quickly. The groom’s brother receives more media attention than the groom.”

Kevin smiled and nodded. For the past week, his parents have been by his side and he can see the tiredness on their faces. So this morning, he told them to go home and rest.

Daniel thought his brother and Emma were a couple, so he allowed Emma to take a few days off work to go to the hospital with Kevin. Her position is temporarily assigned to Emily.

Both of them were eating apples when Emma’s phone rang. Seeing Daniel’s name displayed on the screen, she quickly picked up the phone.

On the other end of the line, his voice was gentle but a bit urgent, asking her to return to the corporation because there was something that needed to be handled because Emily was not knowledgeable.

“It’s Daniel, the company has urgent business so I have to go now. Emily will come here to take care of you.”

After saying that, Emma quickly stood up, grabbed her bag, and ran out of the room, leaving Kevin with a slightly bewildered face.

His younger brother let Emily take care of him? He felt guilty for being happy when he heard Emma say that.

Daniel trusts him so he should not act or think beyond the limit.

At the same time, at the company, Emily was also preparing to leave the deputy general manager’s office. When she heard Daniel tell her to go to the hospital with Kevin, she felt her ears ringing.

“Just stay in there and talk to him to help him relax. I’ll come pick you up this afternoon. I’m afraid if I call my parents to the hospital, they will be tired. Besides, that guy doesn’t want maids to fawn over him. Around three or four o’clock in the afternoon, Emma is free. It was just a sudden thing today.” Daniel grabbed her shoulders, kissed her lightly on the forehead, and said.

“Yes. Remember to eat lunch on time, don’t let your stomach hurt.”

After she finished giving instructions, she ran away like a little squirrel, straight to the elevator.

She originally intended to go home and cook porridge for Kevin, but she knew he needed someone by his side. If he wanted to go somewhere without anyone watching, it would be dangerous.

So, when the taxi arrived at the most famous porridge restaurant in the city, she immediately told the driver to stop and go in to buy some porridge.

The moment she walked down the hallway leading to where he lay, her heart suddenly fluttered and was nervous, and extremely emotional.

And when she stood in front of the door, she hesitated for a long time before daring to knock twice before entering.

Just like her, the man in the room was equally moved. He tried to smile, nodding slightly as a greeting.

“Are you still in pain?” Emily approached him and asked.

“I feel much better, but sometimes I feel dizzy.” He replied gently.

“You lost too much blood.”

She carefully took out the porridge box, pulled out a chair to sit next to him, and fed him.

She forgot that there was no problem with his hands, and he still remembered but knew that this was probably the last time he would enjoy this privilege, so he opened his mouth and did not refuse. The biggest regret in his life is that he lost her.

“Who is that? Doctor?” Emily widened her eyes and looked at him when she heard a knock on the door.

“No, the doctor never knocks on the door when he comes in. It was the waiter who brought me porridge.” He shook his head.

Emily quickly put down the porridge box, opened the door, and took the porridge from the young housekeeper’s hand.

Why did she forget that Kevin’s family has a good chef and many servants? His mother will not let him or Daniel eat outside food when they are sick.

When she returned, she saw that Kevin had eaten the entire box of porridge by himself. Her face turned red with embarrassment. Why did she feed him when he could eat himself? But why did that man open his mouth without saying anything?

“This porridge…” She hesitantly pointed to the porridge in her hand.

“You haven’t had lunch yet, right? Eat it. These days, my mother keeps asking the chef to cook this porridge dish, so I’m a bit bored. Eating the porridge you bought will not get boring.”

The gurgling sound coming from Emily’s stomach made her want to crawl underground. She nodded and quickly pulled the chair away from his bed, turned her back to him, and ate.

She had to admit that his chef’s cooking was extremely delicious. Looking at the ingredients in the porridge, she knew how nutritious it was.

If someone sells this porridge, they will probably make a lot of money, no joke, it contains abalone mushrooms, crab, shrimp, and many expensive ingredients.

Kevin’s hand reached out, floating in space. Every time he just saw her thin, lonely back, he couldn’t control his emotions.

He couldn’t forget her, he couldn’t stop loving her. The more he tried to hide it, the more intensely the fire of love burned in his heart.

“Is it delicious?” He quickly withdrew his hand and spoke as soon as he saw her turn her head.

“Yes, it’s delicious, so why are you fed up with it?”

“Ah, we should change dishes every once in a while.”

Seeing Kevin leaning on his hands and intending to lie down, Emily quickly ran to help him.

She wrapped her arms around his back and told him to relax his body and not strain. At such a close distance, he could smell her familiar scent.

The moment his head landed on the pillow, their eyes met, love and pain were all they could see in each other’s eyes.

“Whenever you’re tired, just call me. Don’t move yourself and hurt your wound.”

“I know.”

She withdrew her hand, pulled the blanket to cover half of his body, and then went to the sofa to sit. She wanted to ask him to let her see the wounds on his back but didn’t dare open her mouth.

At that time, Kevin was only wearing a white shirt, so the propeller blade cut deeply into his back. If only he had worn a vest, he would not have been seriously injured.

She originally intended to stay up to watch him, but after lying down on the sofa, she fell asleep, not knowing that the handsome man was still awake, and kept looking at her.

It wasn’t until nearly three o’clock in the afternoon that Emily suddenly woke up. She panicked when she saw Kevin moving step by step toward the bed.

She quickly ran over, grabbed his arm, and helped him walk.

“Why didn’t you call me?”

“I can go by myself. I can’t go far, but walking around the room is okay.”

Looking out the glass window, seeing that the sunlight had faded, he immediately asked her to find a wheelchair and push him down to the hospital grounds to get some fresh air to ease his uncomfortable feelings.

He could lock himself in his office all day without feeling uncomfortable, but he didn’t like being in the hospital room at all.

Emily agreed and then ran away. Her lovely appearance made him feel young again.

She is no different from a book, each page brings people a different level of emotions, happiness, sadness, love, hate, even trouble, everything.

After fifteen minutes, she brought Kevin down to the hospital grounds. She pushed her wheelchair under the trees to find shade even though the sun was still obscured by dark clouds, not knowing when it would appear.

They were both quiet, watching the tree branches and grass swaying in the wind. Kevin could smell the girlish scent of his beloved mixed with the chilly winter breeze.

She sat on a stone bench, shifting her gaze from the flower bushes to the distant clouds, her heart heavy with sadness.

“When you go back to work, Mr. Venn will also return to the company, right?” She asked.

“Maybe so.” His throat choked when he answered.

“Kevin, thank you for saving me.”

Finally, Emily mustered up the courage to turn and look at him. Even though she didn’t want to cry, she couldn’t control her tears. Bitter salty tears fell one after another, drenching her beautiful face.

“We are one family. No need to thank me.”

Although Kevin wanted to wipe her tears with his hands, hold her in his arms, and comfort her, the wall of morality stopped him.

He knew she still loved him, she knew he still loved her, they understood each other but that didn’t mean anything.

He knew that a small sensitive action at this time would cause both of them to slide down an unethical slope.

Emily’s act of wiping away tears fell into Daniel’s sight. He stood not far away, but the thick bushes hid him.

He originally finished work early and planned to go talk to his brother for a while and wait for Emma to come in before taking Emily home. He didn’t expect the room to be empty. And when he looked down and saw them, he quickly ran down here.

“I shouldn’t show up right now, it’ll make her feel even more awkward.”

In the end, Daniel chose to turn away because he thought about her feelings. The so-called old love is very difficult to talk about, talking about forgetting is not easy to forget, and talking about hatred is not entirely hatred.

The harsh afternoon sunlight gradually appeared, shining on the man’s lonely back. He looked like a solo traveler, not like someone who had just gotten engaged.

These past few days, she was with him, but he could recognize half of her soul wandering in the hospital.

So when there was work that needed Emma’s return to handle, he deliberately asked her to change shifts. He knew she had something to say to his brother, like thank you.

At the same time, Jessica also entered the hospital room. Seeing the empty hospital room, she immediately called Kevin and when she knew he was enjoying the fresh air under the hospital grounds, she immediately ran down.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
