Purchased A Mr. Right
Chapter 1256

Adam was still on his mission.

Master Hsu suddenly passed away. For such a big thing, Bellamy contacted him and told him through various means. As the son-in-law of the Hsu family, he must attend in order not to be criticized by others. His superior permitted a leave, so Adam came back in a hurry.

Along the way, he was very worried about Anthea.

Anthea was different from the others in the Hsu family. Only Master Hsu was her family.

Such a sudden change must have made her very sad and helpless, and she must need him very much. Adam wanted to come back to her as soon as possible to shelter her from the wind and rain, and to give her the power to calm down.

Among all people in black, Adam's black eyes finally fixed on her.

Just as he had expected, her face was pale and her eyes were red. She was trying hard to hold back her tears.

She was much thinner!

It had only been half a month since he left, but she was so thin. Her chin was so sharp and her cheeks seemed to be concave. Standing in the middle of the crowd, she seemed to be able to fall down by a gust of wind.

Adam's heart was about to break.

When he walked to the front of the tombstone and saw Emerson standing beside her, Adam was surprised and frowned slightly.

The funeral was held in an orderly manner.

Adam, who had just arrived, strode forward under the guidance of the staff and mourned the dead for the last time.

Madam Jiles was supported by her parents' family. After her husband's sudden death, she was so sad that she could not utter a complete sentence.

Jayden, who was next to her, greeted Adam, but his tone was a little bit different than usual.

Adam did not notice it. All his attention was on Anthea.

He really wanted to go forward and hold her in his arms, but there were too many people here, so he could only endure it for the time being.

Half an hour later, the funeral was over.

The people attending the funeral left one after another. Anthea was the last to leave the hill.

Looking at Master Hsu's smiling picture on the tombstone, she remembered the way he held her hands in a pool of blood. At that time, the skin of his hands was flabby, like the skin of an old tree... The army green jeep pulled up.

Seeing her walking down the mountain path, Adam put off the cigarette and strode toward her.

Emerson saw Adam and left. "Little girl, I'll go first!"

"OK, thanks again." Anthea nodded, feeling very grateful.

When the child was lost, thanks to Emerson's company, she was not that miserable.

After the two men nodded to each other, Emerson left.

Only the two of them were left. They no longer had to worry about others. Adam went forward and held her in his arms.

Adam didn't dare to exert too much strength because he was afraid that it would hurt her slim body.

Anthea finally felt the long-lost embrace.

From the moment when Master Hsu had an accident, she had been in a state of extreme panic. She really wanted him to stay with her and used his broad shoulders to support her and protect her. "Adam..." Anthea choked with sobs.

Almost at the same time when she called him, her tears gushed out silently.

Adam felt that his clothes were wet with tears, and his heart was aching.

With his hand on her back, he said in a hoarse voice, "I immediately came back after receiving the news that my father-in-law passed away. Anthea, I know that you are sad, but people can't come back after death. You should look forward. You still have me! I will always be with you!"

There were people who died of car accident almost every minute in the world. The probability of death in a car accident was high.

Life was very fragile. When Adam learned that Master Hsu had passed away in an accident and the driver of the accident had not yet been caught, he felt very sorry and sad.

Perhaps he did not have much feelings for the other members of the Hsu family, but Master Hsu had always treated him well and treated him like his biological son. He did not have much feelings for his dead wife, but he respected and loved this father-in-law very much.

When Anthea heard his last sentence, even more tears flowed out.

Thinking about grandfather and the child, She was overcome with sorrow.

Anthea nestled in his arms like a little baby cat, but was not as energetic as before. It was as if she had wandered on the streets for a long time and suffered all the hardships in the world.

Adam thought that she was so sad because of Master Hsu's sudden death, so he hugged her lovingly and coaxed her again and again.

After leaving the cemetery, they returned home.

Anthea cried so sadly that she had no strength. Adam carried her all the way from the underground parking to the house.

Adam hugged her on the sofa like he was holding a child, not letting go of her. He knew that words of comfort were useless to her and he could only stay with her like this.

Anthea cried twice again, silently.

Adam kissed her tears over and over again.

Her eyes were swollen, which made him feel distressed.

Looking at the sky outside the window, Adam found that the sun was already setting in the west. Time passed quickly. He frowned and said, "The mission hasn't been completed yet. The superior made an exception and allowed me to come back. I only have

30 hours. I have to go back tomorrow morning." "I see..." Anthea nodded.

Adam sighed deeply and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Anthea."

At a time like this, she needed him the most.

Adam came back in a hurry, and after a short stay, he had to leave in a hurry. But there was no other way. He was a soldier. Once he wore this military uniform, he would bear responsibilities and missions. The military orders could not be violated, and the task was related to the country and its people.

As a soldier, he was competent, but as her man, he was unqualified.

Anthea lowered her head, and Adam couldn't seethe look inside her eyes. Her voice was very weak after crying. "It doesn't matter. I'm fine! Your work is more important!"

"I'm sorry to make you go through all this." Adam kissed her head, gently and pitifully.

Anthea didn't say anything, but she shook her head hard.

Looking at her curling up in his arms, he held her on his lap and gently discussed with her, "Anthea, are you hungry? Let's eat something?"

She really did lose a lot of weight.

When Adam carried her upstairs, he felt that she was as light as a feather without any flesh. There were dark circles under her eyes, as if she had not slept for several nights. She was not as rosy as before. Anthea had no appetite. She had been struggling for the past few days, and her stomach seemed to have been stuffed with a huge stone.

But she said, "I want to eat fried dumplings, the kind that you often make for me!"

"Alright." Adam nodded.

He reluctantly put her on the sofa, warmed a glass of milk for her, and then went into the kitchen. "Wait for me, I'll get it right away."

Every time Adam left, he was afraid that she would starve, so he always filled the refrigerator with food before leaving.

There were frozen dumplings in the freezer. It was very convenient to cook them.

Anthea crossed her arms around her legs and her chin feebly pressed against them. She looked at the tall figure busy in the kitchen with greedy eyes.

She looked at him without blinking eyes, as if she wanted to engrave him in her heart.
