Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 920
"Toot, toot..."
Upon hearing the sound behind them, both Calvin and Emily turned their heads.
A black Cayenne slowly driving in their way, and stopped next to the BMW. The door of the driver's seat opened, and a tall figure got out of the car.
Simon wore a dark gray shirt and a pair of slacks of the same color. The sleeves of the shirt were rolled up to the elbow, and one of his arms was gently placed on the car door. The sunlights were kissing his handsome face like he was their Apolo. He was looking at them. Or, to be more precise, he was looking at her.
"Emily!"
Emily subconsciously took half a step back at his calling. The same swollen feeling came back to my lips again.
The scene that happened last night was still lingering in her mind. When she looked at him, she couldn't conceal the anger in her eyes. But since he was drunk at that time and Calvin was here now, she could only pretend that nothing had happened.
Calvin saw him and asked politely, "Mr. Chin, what's
the matter?"
Simon said, "There's something!"
"Then what is it?" Emily immediately frowned.
Simon did not immediately reply. Instead, his gaze swept across the two. "Are you planning to go out on a date?"
"Emily and I are going to watch a movie." Calvin answered without hesitation.
"Such a bad coincidence!" Simon muttered to himself.
"What's wrong?" Calvin was puzzled.
Simon raised his eyelids again and stared at Emily, who had been pursing her lips. "Emily, I want you to accompany me to a place!"
Emily said directly, "As you heard it, I'm not available now."
Simon said sadly, "It's granny's birthday today."
Emily's breathing paused, and her expression eased a lot."... Grandma's birthday?"
"Hmm, I'm here because I want to go to visit her with you!" Simon nodded and paused. Then he continued to say in a low voice, "As for our divorce, in fact, I didn't tell my grandma. She always thought that we went abroad for traveling. It's her birthday today. If you accompany me to visit her today, she will be very pleased! But if you feel reluctant and embarrassed, then forget what I said!"
When he said the last sentence, he glanced at Calvin out of the corner of his eye.
Calvin saw a look of hesitation on her face. He did not want to put her in a dilemma, therefore, after a moment of silence, he said magnanimously, "Emily, you'd better go!" "Calvin..." Emily bit her lip.
Calvin smiled at her and said in a gentle voice, "No worries. The movie will start at 16 o'clock. There are three hours left. It isn't late for us to watch it after you come back from the cemetery!" "Alright then!" Emily nodded.
It was Grandma's birthday and she had just passed away. In addition, Emily had gone to Country S without saying goodbye to her, so she had been feeling guilty. Now she was in Ice city, and if she didn't go, she would feel more guilty!
When Emily bent over and was about to get into the car, she heard Simon saying, "I'm sorry, Mr.
Desmond. I think that it is inappropriate for you to go with us!"
"Well, I understand!" Calvin nodded to show his understanding.
Simon nodded slightly, and then raised his chin
slightly to indicate to the Cayenne. "Emily, get into the car!"
Emily clenched her fingers and had to stand up. She walked towards him and opened the door. Then she looked at her fiance and said, "Calvin, I'll call you when it's over!"
"OK!" Calvin's smile had always been gentle.
As soon as the door was just closed, the black Cayenne drove away swiftly like an arrow leaving the bow.
After an hour of driving, the car slowly drove into the cemetery and stopped at the parking lot at the foot of the mountain.
There were not many people coming to pay tribute at this time. After they arrived, Simon's expression became much more solemn. He took out the cake box and flowers prepared in advance from the trunk. Then they went up the mountain together.
It was the second time that they came here.
On the tombstone, grandma in the photo was as kind as ever, and her gaze was like that they saw in the hospital.
Simon strode forward, squatted in front of the tombstone, and wiped the photo with his fingers. He didn't want to see a trace of dust on the photo. Then he put the cake and flowers aside and said, "Grandma, I've brought Emily to see you!"
Emily also stepped forward and said in a low voice, "Grandma, happy birthday..."
The cake box was opened. It had simple patterns, with red letters in the middle.
Seeing him take out the lighter, Emily helped block the wind with her hands. After he lit the candles, she put them on the cake.
They didn't speak for a moment, quietly watched the candle burning, and couldn't help imaging that grandma closed her eyes and made a wish to blow out the candle.
It wasn't until all the candles had been burned out that Simon pulled them out and slowly stood up.
Then he glanced at her and said faintly, "Grandma will be happy that you come here!"
Emily said, "I should come here!"
After all, when grandma was alive, she treated her well, and Emily had always treated her as her own grandmother. After they got along with each other for so many years, the affection between them couldn't be erased.
Simon's Adam's apple moved slightly, and he seemed to sigh in a low voice. His voice sounded more disconsolate than before. "In fact, grandma always missed the dead child. She felt it a pity. Every time she mentioned it, she always sighed deeply. She said she was close to witnessing the birth of her granddaughter. Maybe when she died, it was all her pity!"
"..." Emily's vision was a little blurred.
Because she remembered how happy grandma was when she was pregnant.
At that time, grandma had been in the hospital again, and the attending doctor had told them that there was no way to perform another operation. However, when grandma learned that there was a new life in her belly, it was as if she had no illness at all, and her eyes were bright...
Neither of them spoke again. They were immersed in the precious memories with grandma.
After a long time, the sun gradually began to set, and they began to walk down the mountain.
Simon put his hands in his pockets and got into the car. Then he glanced at the time displayed on the dashboard and said, "How time flies! It's almost four o'clock!"
"It's almost four o'clock?" Emily was shocked.
She came to herself from the surprise and quickly raised her sleeve to look at her watch. As expected, the time needle was almost pointing to the number 4.
Simon held the steering wheel and said slowly, "I will try to drive as fast as possible. But even if there is no traffic jam on the road, I'm afraid that you'll be late for the movie!" Emily bit her lip.
To be exact, Emily was already late.
