Chapter 235 She Fell Asleep
When Emily saw him, he immediately lowered his head guiltily. “I seem to have caused Adele trouble again…”
When Owen saw Adele’s slightly swollen cheek, his eyes flashed and he hurriedly asked, “Adele, what happened to your face?”
“It’s fine. Emily drank too much. Take her back.” Adele looked away.
Seeing this, Owen didn’t need to ask more. He had already guessed a few points in his heart and reached out to catch Emily.
He was too clear about his sister’s personality. The reason why he didn’t let her go to the bar night club was because he was afraid that she would cause trouble. This time, it was rare for him to approve it. It was better to go to a good friend. He didn’t expect something to happen.
He frowned and turned to look at his subordinates not far behind him. He ordered coldly, “Take her home.”
His subordinate nodded and helped Emily into the taxi next to him.
“Ye An, you go back too. I can go home myself.” Adele took a deep breath and pulled the corners of his lips.
“I’ll send you back.”
Owen’s tone was firm. Looking at her slightly swollen face, he felt an indescribable heartache.
How could a man bear to see his beloved woman get hurt?
Adele looked up and was about to decline, “No need…”
Unexpectedly, Owen suddenly grabbed her arm and walked to the side.
The man had a nice fragrance on him, which somehow gave her some peace of mind.
She was pulled through half the street and stopped at the door of a pharmacy.
“Wait here, I’ll go buy medicine.” Owen let go of her hand and looked back at her.
After saying that, he walked into the pharmacy. Not long after, when he returned, there was already a tube of ointment and cotton swab in his hand.
Adele’s heart warmed. She did not expect him to bring her to buy medicine first.
“Let’s go. We’ll wipe it after we get on the car. There are too many people here.” Owen smiled at her.
Hearing this, Adele was slightly startled.
The man in front of her was much more considerate than she had imagined.
She obediently followed her footsteps and followed him into the car.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
“I understand Emily’s personality. She is not sensible. It is all thanks to you helping her,” Owen said softly as soon as she got into the car.
At this moment, Adele had mostly calmed down. She smiled and said, “It’s not her fault. She just drank too much.”
Moreover, today’s matter was indeed caused by Song Qi looking for trouble. In essence, it was not Emily’s fault.
“I’ll apply the medicine for you.”
Owen said as he took out a cotton swab, dipped it in ointment, and leaned closer to her.
The interior of the carriage was originally a sealed space. He approached again, and the distance between the two suddenly shortened. Adele tilted his face, and unconsciously even his breathing became lighter.
Owen held the cotton swab and looked at the side of the woman in front of him. He also felt an indescribable nervousness in his heart.
When the cool ointment touched his cheek, it was applied to a thin layer. Although it was a little painful, Adele endured it and did not make a sound.
“Okay.”
Finally, Owen applied the ointment and retracted his hand. Both of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Owen’s ears were a little red. He started the car and whispered, “You take a rest. I’ll take you home.”
“Okay.”
Adele looked away and looked out of the window. Her tense body slowly relaxed.
The strength of the glass of wine she drank in the bar just now slowly came up. Unconsciously, she was a little sleepy. She fell into the soft back and slowly fell asleep.
When Owen saw the serene face of the woman next to him, he could not help but smile. He deliberately slowed down the car and drove the car more steadily.
He really hoped that this moment could last longer.
After an unknown period of time, when he was about to reach the entrance of the community, the phone that Adele had placed on the bag beside him suddenly lit up.
The phone screen flashed and vibrated non-stop. When Owen heard this, he was afraid to wake up Adele and immediately picked up the phone.
The moment he was about to turn off the screen, out of instinct, he glanced around and saw the three words “Damon” on it. His hand suddenly tightened.
He turned his head slightly and looked at Adele, who was still sleeping. His mood was a little complicated.
After two seconds of hesitation, he pressed the answer button and put it to his ear. “Hello? What’s the matter?”
“Who are you?” Damon was startled when he heard that. The next second, his eyebrows had already tightened.
“Her friend, she fell asleep in the car. If there is anything, you can call another day.” Owen frowned and lowered his voice.
After that, he hung up the phone without waiting for Damon to say anything.
On the other side, Damon’s face instantly darkened.
He glanced at the phone that had been hung up and glanced at the time. An inexplicable anger rose from the bottom of his heart.
How could he not recognize that it was Owen’s voice? It was already so late, and they were still together!
Moreover, Adele had actually fallen asleep in his car!
Was she stupid or naive to do such a dangerous thing?
Moreover, he had clearly told her that she had to abide by the contents of the contract, but she had obviously ignored what he had said!
An indescribable feeling filled his heart, and Damon’s hand that was holding the phone slowly tightened.
In the end, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He called his subordinate outside the door and ordered, “Contact the director of the People’s Hospital and tell him that I will be transferred to their hospital tomorrow.”
The subordinate was a little surprised and could not help but ask, “Are we going to contact him now?”
The man’s face seemed to be covered with a layer of cold frost. “Go now!”
On the other side, Adele had just woken up. He looked outside the window and saw that he had already arrived at the downstairs of the apartment. Only then did he hurriedly stand up.
“I’m sorry.” “I accidentally fell asleep. Did I make you wait for a long time?” she smiled apologetically at Owen.
“No, I just arrived.” Owen smiled at her.
He picked up the bag and phone next to him, pushed the door open and got out of the car. “Thank you, then. Go back early.”
Owen wanted to say something but stopped. He was about to tell her about the phone call he had just picked up, but Adele had already gotten out of the car, closed the door, waved at him, and turned around.
Owen smiled helplessly. His gaze paused on the woman for two seconds before he came back to his senses and started the car.
In fact, when it came to selfishness, he also had it.
From the first time he saw Damon, he could faintly feel that he would be an opponent for him. Perhaps in the business world, or in terms of emotions.
That man was one of the few people he could be considered an opponent in the past few years.
After a nap, Adele felt much better. After returning home, he took a shower and picked up his phone to send a message to Ms. Henderson.
“Have you rested?”
“Your father is already asleep. I’m going to rest now.”
“Alright, rest early. I’ll go see you tomorrow.”
After sending the message, Adele felt a little better. For the past few days, she had gotten used to asking about her father and mother.
In a few days, it would be the day of her father’s surgery. Director Feng had specially instructed that before the surgery, the patient’s condition was very important. Naturally, she would also take care of it from time to time.
As long as the operation was successful, her efforts during this period of time would not be in vain, and the contract would not be signed in vain.
