Chapter 409: More Than Being Close
Chapter 409: More Than Being Close
Again, Elaine was surprised.
Emmett had expected that. He could even imagine her surprised look. Then, Emmett smiled, with his charming eyes sparkling, "Once I get all my work done, I'll register for marriage with you."
"What?"
It was a greater shock to her.
"Register ... for marriage? I'm only eighteen years old..."
Was there anyone else who registered for marriage at the age of eighteen?
Emmett tapped his finger on the table and said, "Let's get married abroad."
Elaine was so astonished that she was like a deer caught in headlights. After a while, she regained her senses. Hearing Emmett's manly breathing from the phone, she hung up hurriedly.
...
In astonishment, Elaine limply covered her chest with her eyes wide open.
Why did she feel happy about it?
She really changed! Why?
Elaine couldn't help thinking about what Emmett had said.
Let's get married abroad...
Let's get married abroad...
"What's wrong with you? Why do you seem so shocked after the call? Hey, I'm talking to you. Your eyes seem to be going to pop out!"
Hazel came out of the bathroom, tidied up her clothes and kicked Elaine slightly.
Elaine simpered at Hazel.
"Will you get married abroad?"
"What? Are you crazy?"
Hazel raised her voice, and Elaine was surprised to feel the sweetness in her tone.
Then, Hazel became inquisitive and kept asking what Elaine meant by that.
Elaine covered her blushing cheeks, answering Hazel's researching questions happily.
"Emmett's jumping the gun a bit! He tries to make it easy to let you be his wife! I judge him!"
With her eyes shining, Elaine held Hazel's hand and asked in confusion,
"Have I ever been in love with him before? Why can't I remember everything, but I don't hate him at all?"
The corner of Hazel's mouth twitched.
She didn't know what to say.
Hazel really wanted to pat Elaine's head and say, "Honey, if it wasn't for the accident, you might have given birth to a kid for Emmett, not to mention a relationship ... "
She hesitated for a while.
"It's better for you to discover yourself what happened to you two. Anyway, he's been sweet with you."
Then they heard a car honk.
A car was waiting outside.
Hazel quickly ran out. As expected, Officer Bradley came.
Bradley got out of the car and smiled at Hazel.
His eyes were as clear as blue sky. He smiled like an innocent child.
Hazel was pleased by his innocence, "Why were you late? I've been waiting for you so long!"
Hazel seemed to be blaming him, but her lovely face blushed with sweetness.
...
Bradley scratched his head in embarrassment. "I caught two pickpockets on the way. So I sent them to the police station before coming over. Then I was late."
Hazel rolled her eyes, yet with joy. "Who do you think you are? The savior? You don't need to do the job as a policeman after work. Don't be so nosy anymore!"
"OK."
Bradley said and looked at Elaine, "Do you feel better?"
Elaine smiled sweetly, "I'm fine."
Of course, Elaine thought that she was fine.
Hazel winked at Bradley nervously to stop him from asking more questions.
Bradley stuck out his tongue and immediately kept his mouth shut.
Bradley drove the car, and Hazel and Elaine sat in the backseat.
Elaine was in a good mood. She looked out at the scenery through the window. Suddenly, she said,
"Emmett is my boss. But why do I feel we're close?"
"Whoa!"
Bradley coughed in shock.
He looked at Elaine in disbelief with his eyes wide open through the rear mirror.
"Even more than that!"
They couldn't be closer!
Bradley remembered the time when he first saw Emmett. At that time, Hazel was held in custody for beating up her classmate. Elaine went over to help together with Emmett. It was the first time that he had seen a man like Emmett who was so outstanding and handsome.
He held Elaine in his arms gently, as if she was a kitten.
As dominant he was, he looked lovingly at Elaine always.
"More than that? Really?"
Elaine turned her gaze from outside to Bradley, who was driving the car.
Hazel was afraid that Elaine would be shaken up, so she said, "Don't Listen to him! He knows nothing about it! He's just talking nonsense."
Bradley immediately shouted defiantly, "I'm not talking nonsense! I know Emmett! Emmett and Elaine came to help you out when you were kept in the police station, didn't they?"
Elaine's eyes widened in surprise, "Officer Bradley, can you tell me about my relationship with Emmett?"
...
"Well, you made a very sweet couple! Emmett loves you very much. It seems that he would even bring you the moon on a rocket if you wanted it."
"Wow." Elaine opened her mouth in shock.
Emmett loved her so much?
Really?
For a moment, Elaine felt like it was real, but also like a dream. She knitted her brows and supported her head with a conflicted expression.
Hazel noticed Elaine's expression. She was afraid that Elaine would lose her mind, so she interrupted, "Elaine, what do you want to eat? It's Bradley's treat. Let's have the most expensive food!"
Elaine's eyes immediately lit up and she got distracted by food. After thinking for a while, she said, "I want to have pepper steak."
"What?"
Bradley couldn't help but laugh, "I thought you wanted to eat something special. It turned out that you wanted to have pepper steak! I never expected that Emmett's beloved woman wasn't picky at all."
Elaine was shocked and asked at once, "What? Emmett's beloved woman?"
She had mistaken Emmett's words as nonsense before. Anyway, they had sex.
And she thought that it was natural for a man to sweet-talk after sex. Elaine did not take it seriously at first.
But even Bradley, who was an honest man, said that Emmett loved her.
Elaine started to take it seriously.
"Did I lose much of my memories? The important ones?"
Hazel did not reply but raised her eyebrows.
Bradley laughed and said, "Emmett is nice to you. I think he loves you very much."
Finally, Hazel couldn't help but add, "He only loves you."
Elaine was shocked.
Only?
It occurred to her that Emmett had said that he would take her abroad to register for marriage. She felt very happy and excited.
Elaine smiled happily, regardless of her lost memories.
Hazel gently hugged Elaine's shoulder. 'Wish you all the happiness in the world.' thought she.
...
"Autumn." Elaine raised her face and looked at the signboard of the restaurant in which they were going to eat. She was a little puzzled, "The name of this restaurant is just one word?"
It was really strange.
Bradley closed the car door and locked it. He mustered up the courage to hold Hazel's waist, but Hazel quietly pushed his hand away.
Bradley felt hurt, but he seemed still calm. He smiled bitterly and explained,
"Autumn is the name of the founder of the restaurant. The chef is from Australia. It became very popular quickly. The food tastes good and the environment is quiet and elegant."
(∞ _ ∞)
Hazel looked at Bradley with her eyes and mouth wide open and asked,
"Hey, the food here must be expensive, right?"
Bradley looked at Hazel shyly. His eyes were filled with love, passion and gentleness.
"It's my treat. I don't care whether it's expensive or not. The taste of food here matters the most."
Hazel curled her lips and said, "Did you rob the bank? It's not easy for you to earn some money! We'd better go now. Don't blow away!"
Bradley hurriedly explained, "Don't worry. I don't pay the bill."
"Let's go. We are not going to eat here. Let's go somewhere else." Hazel wanted to leave. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Elaine couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, "Hazel, shame on you. You've already started to save money for him before you marry him. Will this meal make your future husband a poor guy?"
Hazel's face immediately turned red. She gritted her teeth and raised her fist at Elaine, "Elaine! You wanna a fight? Don't talk nonsense!"
Elaine argued, "I'm just telling the truth."
"What the hell truth are you telling?"
