Beloved Old Lover

It wasn’t until evening that Kevin went to the phone store, bought a new phone, and called Emily. However, what he received were long, hopeless sounds.

Finally, he called Daisy and she told him his wife was asleep. He originally intended to go buy a phone a little early, but the fever that had tormented him since the afternoon until now made him unable to go out.

He couldn’t know that Emily was also having a fever because she was in so much pain that she fell asleep.

“Emily, you’re a heartless person. Let’s see how I’ll punish you when I get back. Oh my god, what a headache.” He said as he grabbed the edge of the table and slowly sat down on the chair.

While Kevin groaned, Lisa hobbled in with a bag of hot dumplings in her hand.

Just now, the two of them went out to dinner but Kevin could only eat a little, so she was afraid he was hungry in the middle of the night.

The doctor told him and her to eat well before taking the medicine to avoid stomach pain.

“Why do you go out and buy these when your feet hurt?” He frowned and asked as soon as she put the bag of dumplings on the table.

“If you’re hungry late at night, you can eat more. Just now you only ate a few spoons of porridge. But how do you feel inside? Or go to the hospital, if anything happens, the doctor will be able to help you in time.” Lisa looked at him worriedly.

“It’s okay, the doctor also told me that I might have a fever.”

Kevin reached out and took out the medicine. Lisa quickly poured water into a glass and gave it to him. Fortunately, her wound did not cause fever, just burning pain.

She wanted to ask Kevin to let her stay in his room to watch over him, but she didn’t dare say anything.

As for him, after taking the medicine for a few seconds, he gradually lost consciousness and collapsed on the table. Luckily, Lisa reacted quickly and caught him before he fell to the floor.

“President… president, what’s wrong with you? President…”

Lisa panicked and called Kevin, but he was as soft as noodles and didn’t answer. His eyes were closed and his hands were hanging limply.

After a moment of panic, she remembered and quickly took the landline to call the hotel receptionist, asking them for help.

Very soon, two tall staff members appeared and helped her take Kevin to the hospital.

After listening to Lisa explain that Kevin had an accident, went for a checkup and the doctor wrote a prescription for him, but now that he fainted, the doctor immediately checked again.

After that, the doctor concluded that Kevin had a physical weakness, combined with a fever, which was why he lost consciousness.

Finally, the doctor told Lisa to do procedures for Kevin to be admitted to the hospital for convenient monitoring, and according to her request, he was taken to the VIP hospital room.

It wasn’t until the next morning that Kevin woke up. Feeling the weight and warmth from the back of his hand, he immediately moved his eyes and realized Lisa was resting her head on his hand.

He couldn’t remember anything after putting that dose in his mouth.

“Oh, you’re awake, thank goodness. Yesterday, you scared me to death.” Lisa quickly sat up straight and spoke up as soon as she discovered that Kevin had woken up.

“Why don’t you go to the sofa and sleep?” He moved his hand closer to his body, his voice clearly showing fatigue.

“Ah, I was afraid you had a fever so I sat here to watch over you.” Lisa smiled shyly.

After washing her face, she went down to the hospital canteen and bought two bowls of porridge for Kevin and herself.

Last night, she had a very beautiful dream, she dreamed that Kevin said he loved her and asked her to be his girlfriend.

When people are sick, their hearts are the weakest and she believes Kevin is no exception because he is also human and has a heart.

Even if he’s married, it doesn’t matter. His wife was not by his side, taking care of him when he was in pain and had a high fever. She believed he was more or less touched by her care.

At this time, in the mini villa, Emily also woke up. After a day, her face became even more swollen and bruised.

When Daisy saw Emily appear, Daisy advised her to go to the hospital for a checkup but she refused because she knew it was not life-threatening, after a few days it would no longer be swollen.

“Last night Kevin couldn’t call you, so he called me and I said you were asleep.” Daisy put the food on the table and said.

“I will call him again later.”

While eating, Emily chatted with Daisy, asking about her daughter.

Daisy was extremely proud, showing off Lisa’s excellent academic achievements, constantly receiving scholarships so she could pay her tuition, know how to cook, clean the house, and live tidily. She also bragged that Lisa bought her many gifts on this business trip.

“She will be a good wife. Ah… does she have a boyfriend?” Emily took the spoon and put it in a glass of orange juice, stirring and asking.

“Not yet. There are a few guys near the area where she lives who want to date and get to know her, but she refuses. She’s no longer young, but she’s still picky. I’m worried that when she’s old, no one will look at her.” Daisy sighed.

“Unicons Group has many handsome and talented employees, so don’t worry. Young people now get married very late, like me.”

“If only Lisa could find a good man like Kevin, I wouldn’t have anything to worry about anymore.”

The smile on Emily’s lips was distorted. It seems that Kevin has become the national model of a husband in everyone’s eyes.

If Lisa already had a lover, she probably wouldn’t be worrying so much, but according to Daisy, that girl hasn’t dated anyone yet.

She also didn’t understand why she felt insecure when thinking about Lisa. Maybe she was free and had nothing to do, so she thought nonsense like that.

Previously, Kevin dated Emma, but that was when he was single and she had no right to blame him.

Now, he is married and she believes he will know the responsibilities and obligations of a husband.

Although she consoled herself, when she went up to her room, turned on the phone, and called Kevin, she once again fell into a state of confusion when she only heard the bell ring but no one picked up.

After a few more calls, she got bored and lay down on the bed, staring at the ceiling.

In the afternoon, Emily went out to the yard, walked around, looked at the trees, and enjoyed the wind.

When she saw the car stop in front of the gate, she quickly ran into the house and when she heard the doorbell ring, she ran upstairs.

Although she didn’t know who was visiting Kevin’s house, it was better for her to avoid them. She was afraid that person was his mother, coming to see if she had moved out or not.

While sitting huddled on the bed, she suddenly heard a knock on the door. She was startled, opened her eyes wide, and stared ahead.

“Emily, Kevin’s father came to visit you, he came alone.” Daisy said as soon as she poked her head in.

Emily’s hand gripping the corner of the blanket gradually loosened. She told Daisy to get down first, then left the bed, fixed her hair and clothes, then slowly walked to the living room.

She knew that with Matthew’s personality, he wouldn’t hit or scold her, but she was still a little worried.

It is also possible that he came to advise her to leave his son so that his wife would no longer be angry and faint.

“Hello, uncle.” She bowed her head, politely saying hello.

“Why do you still call me that? Call me dad. Haven’t you and Kevin already registered their marriage?”

The man’s warm, gentle voice made Emily’s pounding heart calm down.

She raised her head, the bridge of her nose suddenly stinging, her eye sockets red.

Matthew was heartbroken when he saw her swollen face. What happened yesterday, he heard Mary tell.

“Father…”

“Okay, sit down.”

Emily obediently did as he said and poured tea into a cup for him.

Matthew took the cup of tea from her, took a sip, and said that Kevin had told him about welcoming her to live with him.

But he didn’t know how his wife knew when both he and Kevin hid this.

He asked his wife, but she just said that if she wanted to know, she would find a way.

“I can understand her mood.” Emily tried to force a smile.

“That’s good. Emily, if possible, forget the past, the present, and the future are the most important. I feel reassured because you have returned to Kevin. Besides you, it seems like he can’t love anyone.”

“Yes.”

After talking with her for another ten minutes, Matthew said goodbye and left.

Looking at the boxes of bird’s nest and nutritious food he bought for her, the corners of her eyes became wet.

Returning to her room, she took the phone and continued calling Kevin, and this time, he picked up.

“Why do I keep calling you but you don’t pick up? Are you very busy?” Her voice was full of frustration.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“Yes, I’m so busy. I was in a meeting when you called. I was about to call back when you called. Are you okay?”

“I’m fine. Ah, your father just came here and bought me a lot of bird’s nests. When you come home, I’ll cook for you to eat.”

“Yes, tell Daisy to make it for you to eat first. It seems that you still have some conscience and still remember your husband.”

Emily laughed, told Kevin to remember to eat on time to avoid stomach pain, and then hung up so he could eat and sleep.

She was no stranger to meetings lasting all night and morning, so she didn’t doubt him when she called him in the morning but he didn’t call back until the afternoon.

Matthew’s words helped her put aside her foolish jealousy, believing that she was the only one in that man’s heart, with no room left for another girl.

Kevin put down the phone and smiled slightly. He spent the whole day in the hospital and received several bottles of intravenous fluids so he felt better.

He originally intended to ask Lisa to go back to the hotel to get the phone for him, but seeing her bandaged leg, he couldn’t bear to ask her to move.

Fortunately, as soon as he returned to the hotel, he received a call from his little wife and was even more happy when he saw countless missed calls from her.

After three days, Kevin’s body had recovered, his head was no longer dizzy, but his shoulder blades were still sore.

Lisa’s wound has also scabbed over, but her gait is still a bit unstable.

After lunch, the two of them went to the airport together. While Kevin was excited because he wanted to see his wife again, Emily sighed when looking at herself in the mirror.

Kevin is so smart, can he believe it was because she fell down the stairs?

Outside, dark clouds came again, and the sunlight quickly disappeared. She looked up at the sky and guessed there would be a heavy rain soon. Her mood was also sad according to the dark scene outside.

The wind blew through the white curtain, bringing the cold outside into the room, and caressing her body.

She doesn’t know when she will love the rain again like she used to.

She remembered the man whose smile was like the morning sunshine of that spring day.

Was he happy to see her with his brother? Should she think that she helped his brother fulfill his wish?

If she didn’t think about this, everything would be fine, but every time she thought about it, her heart ached.
