Chapter 248 It Was His Honor
“Don’t even mention one, I’m willing to help you out for ten times!” Emily said.
“Can you go to my small apartment and bring me some clothes to change into?” Adele smiled.
If she came to the hospital, the small apartment was the only way. Moreover, when she moved, she had given Emily a spare key.
“Okay, what do you need? I’ll make a list and bring it to you later.” Emily answered without hesitation.
After hanging up the phone, Emily began to change his clothes and get ready to go out.
Everything was ready. She went downstairs and walked to the living room. She saw Owen sitting on the sofa, drinking tea and reading a magazine.
Seeing her hurriedly taking things, he raised his eyebrows and asked, “Are you going out?”
Seeing the inquiry in his brother’s eyes, Emily rolled his eyes. He had already guessed the meaning of his words in his heart. She said with certainty, “It’s broad daylight. I’m not going to the bar.”
“Then what are you going to do?”
The man gracefully put down the cup in his hand and stared at her with his clear eyes. He was not strong, but there was an invisible pressure.
Emily sighed helplessly. Since the incident at the bar last time, Owen had treated her more strictly than a criminal.
“I am going to see Adele. She is in the hospital…” Emily said casually as she changed her shoes.
When she heard the word “poem”, Owen’s eyes paused for a moment. The next second, she directly put the magazine in her hand aside and stood up to walk toward her. “What happened to Adele?”
“She is fine. Her father is in the hospital. I will go to the small apartment to help her get something and send it to her and uncle.”
Hearing her words, Owen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, “I will go with you.”
The corners of Emily’s lips curled up. He wanted to tease his old brother, but seeing that it was late, he immediately threw the car key to him. “If you want to go, hurry up. You drive!”
Five minutes later, the two of them got into the car and headed to Adele’s small apartment.
Forty minutes later, they arrived at the hospital and walked to the elevator. “What happened to Adele’s father?” Owen asked.
“There is a problem with his heart. It seems that he just had an operation. I heard Adele mention it before. I don’t know how the situation is recently.”
The two of them chatted for a while and unknowingly arrived at the door of the ward.
“Adele!”
The door of the ward was half open. Emily saw her best friend whom she had not seen for a few days. She was so excited that she ran in. As soon as she entered the ward, she saw Professor Wes who was sleeping soundly on the bed. She immediately closed her mouth and smiled at Adele and Ms. Henderson in embarrassment.
When she saw Emily, Ms. Henderson greeted her warmly and greeted her in a low voice. “Emily is here.”
Adele smiled. He was stunned when he saw her carrying a fruit basket and milk in her hand. He was about to ask her if she had forgotten to help her get her clothes when a tall and straight figure walked into the ward.
“Ye An…”
“Adele.” Owen smiled, as warm as the spring breeze. He put the bag in his hand to the side and said softly, “This is the clothes that Emily helped you get.”
“Thank you.”All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
“Let’s go out and talk,” Adele said, looking carefully at Professor Wes who was lying on the bed.
Now, Professor Wes needed to rest. Usually, she would fall asleep a lot. Suddenly, there were two more people in the room. She was afraid that she would disturb him.
Emily and Owen understood and immediately followed her out. Ms. Henderson also came out and greeted Owen warmly. “Brayden, long time no see.”
Owen took the opportunity to politely bow to her and said, “Long time no see, Auntie. How are you recently?”
Ms. Henderson had a good impression of Owen. He smiled so much that he couldn’t close his mouth. He quickly said, “Pretty good.”
“Adele, what happened to Uncle this time? I feel that he is very weak… Didn’t you say that he was going to have an operation?” Emily asked.
Adele took a deep breath and said softly, “There was an accident. Dad was frightened, so the situation is not optimistic. So I have been staying by his side to take care of him.”
Hearing this, Emily sighed. He looked at the small ward and asked worriedly, “Where are you and Auntie sleeping tonight?”
“In the chair in the ward, sometimes in the chair in the corridor.” Adele bit her lips and said hesitantly.
For the past few days, she really had not slept for a whole night. However, she was already very satisfied to be able to stay by her father’s side and take good care of him.
“I was wondering why you looked so haggard. Your heart hurts so much…” Emily said in disbelief.
When Owen, who was standing beside her, heard this, she lowered her gaze. When she saw the faint blue and purple color in Adele’s eyes, she could not help but feel a little distressed.
After hesitating for a moment, he took out his phone and gestured to everyone. “I’m sorry. You guys chat first. I’ll make a call.”
As he spoke, he held his phone and turned to leave.
“I want her to go back and rest, but she won’t listen no matter what. Emily, you have to help me persuade her!” Ms. Henderson sighed.
Before Emily could say anything, Adele took the initiative to speak. “Mom, with Dad’s current state, even if I go back, I won’t be at ease…”
As soon as she finished speaking, the surroundings became quiet.
She was right. At this time, Professor Wes’ situation was still unstable. Even if she really went back, she was afraid that she would be on tenterhooks.
“Forget it, forget it.” Ms. Henderson waved his hand, sighed, and walked into the ward.
Seeing Ms. Henderson leave, Emily finally opened his mouth and advised in a low voice, “Adele, you can’t be too tired. You have to pay attention to your health.”
“I know. Don’t worry.”
The two of them chatted for a while more before Owen turned around and walked back. Not long after, two nurses came over with a folding bed in their hands.
“Just leave it to me,” Owen said softly as he stepped forward and took the things from them.
Adele and Emily, who were standing at the side, were startled. Before they could react, they saw him carrying the thing into the ward.
“This is…” Adele quickly greeted him.
“I have a friend who works in this hospital. I asked him to find a folded bed and put it in the ward. You can lie down and rest at night.”
After that, he moved the folded bed into the ward, placed the bed on the open space by the window, and pulled the folded bed open.
Adele watched as he conjured a bed under her eyes like a magic trick. Then, he quickly took out the bed sheet and covered it with a cover. In his shock, he felt a warmth in his heart.
After everything was done, Owen stood up and turned to look at Adele and Ms. Henderson. “At least there is a bed for me to lie down on. But this one is too narrow. I will find a wider one another day.”
“This is already very good. Brayden, thank you very much!” Ms. Henderson said with a smile.
“No need to thank me,” Owen said gently.
After saying that, he turned his eyes to Adele and smiled at her.
To be able to help Adele was his honor.
