Purchased A Mr. Right
Chapter 951

Simon got a day off the next day.

The sun was setting as time goes by. They were going to the mother's place to keep the appointment they made yesterday. Emily found a long dress in the wardrobe and got dressed up.

At this time, she was lying on the bed, answering a phone call from her cousin Selena Jones back in Ice city.

Selena still sounded surprised, "Emily, I still feel surreal. You're sure that it's all true. Why it feels like stories in TV plays?"

Beside Emily's best friends, only Selena knew about Simon's disease. There no secrets between the sisters. Emily had told Selena not to tell their elders to avoid unnecessary worries. Although Selena was unreliable sometimes, she could still figure out the seriousness of this matter.

"Do you think that I want all this to be true?" Emily pursed her lips.

If she could, she even wanted time go back to the time when they were separated...

They had missed half a year's time, and she didn't want to waste another minute or second.

"By the way, sister, I admire you so much!" Selena could sense the melancholy in her voice. She sighed and then asked, "By the way, how is Simon? Is he still refusing to make peace with you?"

"Well, he doesn't want to be a burden to me." With her eyelashes down, Emily said in sadness.

How could she not know his thoughts?

He let her go and prayed for her happiness on his own initiative, and kept their distance. It was because he felt that he was infected and might leave the world at any time, and he did not want to be a burden to her.

She sniffed and snorted. "I have no idea. I can only do it step by step. Anyway, no matter what he does, I can't leave him!"

Selena remained silent for a few seconds after Emily's words, and then she asked, "Emily, I'm curious. Simon has an AIDS that can't be cured in his life. Are you really not afraid? Have you made up your mind that you will stay by his side even you may be infected by him?"

"Of course!" Emily answered without hesitation.

It was because he was sick that her determination to stay beside him was even stronger. From the moment she apologized to Calvin Desmond that she could not marry to him, and from the moment she packed up her luggage to get here from Ice city, she had already made up her mind.

Selena thought for a moment and said, "If that's the case, there's actually one direct and simplest way!"

Hearing this, Emily couldn't help sitting up straight. "What is it?"

Hanging up the phone, she narrowed her eyes. A light of cunning flickered in her eyes.

There was a knock on the door. And Simon's deep voice penetrated the door. "Emily, are you ready? We ought to go out!"

"Coming! I'm coming!" Emily got off the bed and sprung to her feet.

When they arrived at the mother's house, it was the dusk.

This was not a common residential building, but a yard. There was a grass shed beside the yard, in which a lot of cows were reared. They wagged their tails and made moos from time to time. They were stepping on earth. At the center of the yard was a bungalow. Because the bungalow was too small, the dining tables were all set in the yard.

There were about five or six tables, having filled up the entire courtyard. Each table was surrounded by locals. They spoke in obscure vernacular, but the simplest happiness could be seen from their faces. After butchering the two cows, the host sent one to the market and left the other to enjoy. There were almost no other dishes on the table. All were beef.

The whole feast was similar to agritainment. The beef offal soup was contained in a utensil as big as wash bowl. The other plates were filled with beef made in local methods. Beside beef, there were also special snacks of Tbridge city.

The moment they entered the courtyard, the mother welcomed them warmly.

The seats had been reserved. The mother led them to their seats on the innermost table.

Emily thanked her and pulled out a chair to sit down. A voice came from the side, "Miss Sam?"

"Mr. Perry?" She turned her head and looked over. She was suddenly stunned and asked in surprise, "Why are you here too? Are you a relative of this family?"

Guest sitting at this table should be relatives of the family. Most of them were locals, and many of them were dressed in local costumes. They did not expect that Tyler Perry was also at this table.

"No!" Tyler shook his head, pointed to the child of the mother sitting in the opposite and explained, "That child is a student in my class. The student was attacked by his disease twice before and I helped send him to the hospital. His mother wanted to show her gratitude and insisted on inviting me to come over. I really can't refuse!"

Emily nodded. She understood. It was yet another offer too hard to turn down.

"Let's change seats!"

Suddenly, Simon's deep voice sounded.

As she turned around, she saw dark clouds on his handsome face. She held her laughter and pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Why do you want to change seats?"

Simon frowned. After a long while, he finally came up with a reason, "It's not easy for you to pick up food there!"

Seeing that his brows were all tensed up, Emily stopped teasing him. Instead, she agreed and switched seats with him. Simon then sat between Emily and Tyler.

Simon relaxed a little bit after changing the seats.

Emily watched as he moved his upper body back and forth from time to time to block her and Tyler's line of sight. It was like a wall to separate them. She couldn't help but snicker.

After all the dishes were served, the dinner began.

The mother, who had been busy preparing the dinner, came over and sat next to her son, enthusiastically greeting every guest.

Emily took a piece of beef from the plate with her chopsticks. It tasted different from that in the restaurant because a kind of herb was added. It was especially fresh and tender, and was also very nutritious. Naturally, during the dinner, they would mention Simon's saving of the child. The table was full of praises.

A relative sitting next to the mother said in influent official language, "Dr. Chin's medical skills are so excellent. It's really lucky for us to have doctors like Dr. Chin!"

"Yes, whoever troubled by heart disease could just ask Dr. Chin for help!"

"Dr. Chin, it's a deal. We're all looking for you for surgery!"

The guests all echoed with the relative, and everyone looked at Simon.

"Don't say that. It's best that everyone could stay healthy and stay away from hospital!" Simon paused for a while, and the smile on his face faded little by little. His lips twitched and he said bitterly, "And, I won't perform operations any more."

Everyone heard his words and looked at each other in silence. They didn't understand why he said that.

Simon's Adam's apple rolled and he remained silent.

A hand quietly put on the back of his hand under the table.
