A Miracle Fault

Chapter 43 When I Get Healed

She was muffled up in pajamas and rubbed her wet hair with a towel.

The man immediately patted the empty spot beside him. "Come here. I'll help you."

"No, your arm is still injured." She sat on the couch and rubbed her hair.

The man's face turned glum. He thought that she was too disobedient because she refused to come to him when he asked her to.

Emmeline did not care about his glum face. She rubbed her hair and walked to Stefan. "It's probably better if I sleep next door. I don't want to risk accidentally touching your wound."

The man immediately grabbed her out of fear that she would run away. "I told you to come here, so do it. If you don't be good, I'll get angry."

"..." Emmeline rolled her eyes at him.

The man did not care. He pulled hard, and the girl fell into his arms. He was finally able to hug her.

As he sniffed at the fragrance of her body and her body wash, he started feeling happy.

Emmeline stiffened and dared not move in his arms.

Stefan could not restrain himself with her soft body in his arms. He moved her shoulders and found her soft lips with his eyes closed.

"Stefan... don't do this. Your wound hasn't healed yet." Emmeline pushed him away with force.

Then, without giving her a chance to speak, he lowered his head and kissed her pink lips right away.

Stefan kissed fiercely, but she felt very uncomfortable. Suddenly, he lifted his big hand and hissed in pain from the wound on his shoulder. It was so painful that he gasped!

Emmeline suddenly became sober. "Is it your wound? I told you to stay still, but you wouldn't listen." She saw the man's pale face and knew that the wound must have broken.

She immediately sat up. "I'll call Dr. Kaur over."

The man on the bed stopped her. "It's too late, don't go. Mrs. Stefan, I'm fine." He firmly held her small hand and placed it on his chest.

Emmeline immediately withdrew her hand when she touched his hot skin. But the man held her small hand tightly, not giving her a chance to escape.

Emmeline felt something pop in her head and blushed as red as fire.

The colour on the man's face changed between red and white. He suddenly thought of what Jaiden said just now.

Emmeline was once again blown away that her consciousness flew out the window!

She was so embarrassed that she would rather dig a hole and bury herself.

Emmeline had never seen such a shameless man who would beg his partner. Emmeline could not bear to look at a man so thick-skinned.

Half an hour later, his tight grip on her body finally loosened. He kissed her flushed face. "Mrs. Stefan, thank you."

Emmeline wished she could kick this shameless man away. When she thought about his promise to let her go to school, she could only bear with him.

When she blushed and walked up to him again, the man immediately hugged her.

"When I get better, I'll treat you well," said the man with a good temper.

Emmeline ignored him. Her arms were tired and sore, so she closed her eyes and went to sleep.

The man took her into his arms and placed his chin on the top of her head. "Go to sleep. Be good~"

Emmeline's heart skipped a beat. His voice was so gentle that she could not believe her ears. If she had not thought of their awkward relationship right now, she would inextricably indulge in his gentleness.

The next day, the sun shone through the window of their room. Emmeline opened her eyes and saw that the man next to her was still asleep. She got up and went to the bathroom to clean up and brought clothes for Stefan to wear on the way.

Stefan opened his eyes slightly and heard sounds of the girl's rustling beside him, instantly calming him and bringing peace to his heart.

But they were going back to X City, and there would be a tough battle. 'No matter what, Mrs. Stefan, I will not let you leave me.'

He considered going back to see his second oldest brother! He planned to ask him to make Anayah divorce quickly. He did not want his woman to stay by his side this way.

He would marry this girl and give her the identity of Mrs. Stefan.

The next day, Stefan and Emmeline boarded the plane back to X City.

It was nine o'clock in the evening when the plane landed. Paul drove Stefan to Soul Island. After being away for ten days, he was finally home. Emmeline helped Stefan shower and get changed before

returning to her bedroom to go to sleep.

She opened the drawer and saw an old phone inside. She picked it up and turned it. To her surprise, there were once again dozens of missed calls and unread messages, most of them from her dad and Anayah.

There were also calls from Agnes and Lena. Three months later, they were still looking for her. Antonio did not call and only sent long messages.

Based on the messages, she could tell that he spent three months looking for her. He always believed that she would go back. He told Emmeline that in a month, he would be going to the United States. He believed that she would come back.

Emmeline looked at those messages and calls, and once again felt waves of emotions as memories unfolded before her eyes.

Lena and Agnes's messages said that they were best friends forever and hoped that she would come back so they could meet up.

Tears blurred her vision again. She did not want much. She only wanted to go to school and finish her studies.

Perhaps it was just a dream too far.

She sat on the bed, wiped away her tears, and looked at the ceiling.

It was a sleepless night. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

The next day, she appeared at the dining table with dark circles under her eyes. As soon as she sat down, Stefan saw how haggard she looked.

"What's wrong? Didn't sleep well last night?" Stefan asked with concern.

"Well, I had insomnia." She did not want to hide it from him.

"Why?" He held her wrist. "Are you used to sleeping with me? Eh?"

Emmeline was not in the mood to joke with him and looked up at him. "Stefan, does what you said in France still count?"

If possible, she really wanted to go to school.

The man's eyes dimmed. "It counts, but not now." He wanted to wait until the Byrne Group's shareholder meeting was over before letting her go to school. By then, they might be living in X City.

There were still many issues to be resolved, and Emmeline was still in danger. His legal wife was Anayah. Before he dealt with this relationship, he was still worried about letting her go to school.

Emmeline nodded after hearing what he said. "Okay, I see."
