Purchased A Mr. Right
Chapter 979

After listening to what he said, Emily felt very shocked and helpless.

Whether it is a video call or a voice message, the plan will fail if he suddenly makes a sound! Since she had already promised to help, she would help Calvin to get through it successfully.

"Stop it. We'll just have a meal. I'll be back when it's over!" Emily covered the microphone with her hand and continued to lower her voice. Being afraid that he wouldn't give up, she quickly said, "Let's stop talking about. Wait for me at home!"

After hanging up the phone, she was in a hurry to turn the phone into silent mode.

Calvin just came over at the moment. He smiled and said to her, "Emily, it's time to have the meal!"

"Okay!" Emily nodded.

The dishes had already been placed on the dining table. Everyone sat down and began to eat.

Emily ever came here for a meal before. Although she was somewhat uncomfortable, she felt less pressure than before. Unlike before, when she thought she was going to marry into the family, it was stressful for her. Now she knew very well that she was here to help put on a show.

Calvin's parents were still very kind and easy to get along with. They reminded her to eat more from time to time.

Emily smiled and said, "Thank you, uncle and aunt!"

Suddenly, there was a piece of beef in her bowl, and when she looked up, she saw the smile in Calvin's eyes.

His smile was still gentle, just like what he did before the wedding was canceled. Emily frowned slightly, but she didn't think too much about it. After all, there were still his family at the dining table. She just said thanks with a smile.

As she looked down, she couldn't help glancing at her pocket on the right.

Emily couldn't help taking out her cell phone. She wanted to see what Simon had sent to her again. The screen lit up every two minutes and it never stopped.

He guessed that she didn't want to answer the video call or his call, so he didn't call her anymore. Instead, he sent her a text message. "Emily, I'm sick!"

Emily frowned at once, with a little worry on her face.

She didn't know if he was really sick or he pretended to be. But she thought that he was a doctor. Even if he was sick, he could take care of himself!

Thinking of this, she chewed two mouthfuls of rice. When she put down her chopsticks, she received another text message. "I'm not feeling well! I seem to have a fever, and it's very serious!"

After seeing this, Emily was sure that he was pretending to be sick, so she put the phone back in her pocket with ease.

"Emily, you and Calvin aren't young now, so you should get married as soon as possible!" Sitting at the head of the table, Calvin's Granny suddenly said that and eagerly looked at her with a smile. "..." Emily was a little embarrassed.

Then Mrs. Desmond said with a smile, "That's right. Grandma and we are waiting for you to have a baby!"

Grandma seemed to be very interested in this topic. "Emily, have you and Calvin considered it? How many children do you plan to have in the future?"

"I..." Emily stammered. She was at a loss when everyone at the table turned to look at her.

Fortunately, she was not embarrassed for a long time. Calvin kept his word to help her explain. "Mom, grandma, Emily and I have something to do later!"

Hearing this, the Desmond Family stopped the conversation and thought that they had other plans later. "Okay, then you go on a date. You should cherish the time to get along with each other. The young people are too busy now!"

After coming out of the villa, Emily breathed a sigh of relief.

If she was asked to answer it, she really didn't know how to continue.

Calvin looked at her with a little regret and said, "Emily, I'm sorry that I've put you in a dilemma!"

"I'm fine!" Emily shook her head. Calvin's apology made her feel even more guilty. She quickly said, "It's my fault. If I can help you, I will try my best!"

Calvin said, "Thank you!"

"Calvin, don't thank me anymore!" Emily shook her head again, because it made her guilty. "I know your concerns. You're afraid that they can't accept the blow, so you hid the truth. Actually, I'm sorry. I failed to do what I promised you and put you in such a dilemma. I broke the agreement first, so it's reasonable for me to help you!"

Calvin took out the car key and said, "Emily, shall I drive you home?"

Emily shook her head and said, "No, thanks. There is a taxi in front. I can take a taxi! Bye!"

He saw her figure getting into the taxi. Calvin stared at her intently until the taxi disappeared without a trace.

In fact, he lied.

He said that his family couldn't take the blow and he needed more time. These were just excuses.

Back then, he didn't cancel the wedding...

It was because he wanted to wait for her and had a glimmer of hope...

By the time Emily got into the taxi, she was eager to dart homeward.

She took out her mobile phone and wanted to call Simon, only to replace that her phone was out of power. Obviously, it must be the result of his constant phone calls.

When she got out of the taxi in the apartment area, it was dark, and the street lights had not yet been completely turned on.

When she opened the anti-theft door with the key, she saw a faint light coming from the living room. The TV was on and there was a noisy sound. Simon was sitting on the sofa with his back to her and putting his two long legs on the tea table. Meanwhile, he was holding a remote control to change the channel.

Seeing him lazily lying there watching TV, Emily

quietly let out a sigh of relief.

Although she knew that the two messages he sent were deliberately his tricks, she was still a little worried. Now that she confirmed that he was safe, she slowed down, took off her coat, and walked over with her slippers.

The voice on the TV was a little loud. It was not until she walked to the sofa that Simon found out.

After seeing her, his face suddenly turned sullen, and he looked at her as if she was a dissolute wife. "Why are you coming back so late?"

"I don't think it's very late!" Emily blinked her eyes.

Simon pointed to the window with the remote control and said, "Look outside. The sun has set!"

"..." Emily rolled her eyes.

Actually, when he drove her out, the sun was setting. In total, she might have stayed in the Desmond Family for no more than two hours.

Emily leaned over and sat next to him and rested her chin upon her hand. After staring at his handsome face for a while, she blinked her eyes and asked in surprise, "Simon, aren't you sick? Don't you have a fever?"

"Ahem, yes!" Simon's face was a bit embarrassed.

A hint of panic flashed in his eyes. After putting down the remote control, he immediately pretended to be weak and kept coughing.

Emily reached out her hand to touch his forehead.

Then she also touched her forehead. Then she said frankly, "Really? Your temperature is lower than mine!"

Simon said awkwardly in a low voice, "That's because my fever has gone down!"
