Chapter 307 Bidfarewell to Such a Life
It was Damon’s phone that rang.
The light in Damon’s eyes flashed, and he immediately straightened up, putting some distance between the two of them.
He took out his phone, glanced at the caller ID on the screen, and pressed his eyebrows down.
He turned to look out of the window, picked up the phone, and put it to his ear.
“Damon, where are you?” a sweet female voice came from the other side.
Adele could vaguely hear that it was Clara’s voice. In an instant, she sobered up a little.
If not for this phone call just now, she didn’t know what they would do.
Adele was a little resentful of her own ignorance. Every time she faced Damon’s face, she couldn’t control herself.
Damon said a few words to the phone. As soon as he hung up the phone, Adele turned to look at him and said with a smile, “Mr. Yusuf, if you have something to do, go ahead and do it. I just thought that I had to go to the nearby area to buy something, so I don’t need to trouble you to send me off.”
As she spoke, she smiled at Damon. Without waiting for him to speak, she directly pushed open the car door and quickly got out of the car.
Damon frowned and subconsciously pushed open the car door to chase, but a voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
A few days ago, Su Yicheng told him with a serious face, “You and she are not from the same world.”
The scene was still echoing in his mind. His hand holding the door handle tightened a little. A moment later, he regained his calm little by little.
Ben, who was standing outside the car, was a little surprised. He looked at Damon and asked, “Mr. Yusuf, are you not going to chase?”
“I’m not going. I’m driving back to the villa,” Damon said, frowning.
Hearing this, Ben could only get in the car and start the car to leave.
Damon looked up and saw the figure in the rearview mirror slowly become smaller and smaller until finally, she could not see it at all.
Adele got on the subway and did not go home directly. Instead, she went to the hospital.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
During this period of time, she had not come to visit Professor Wes and Ms. Henderson. At first, she was afraid of being questioned by them because of the injury on her head, so she did not dare to come over. Later, because of the two whips on her back, she had been recuperating at home and did not go to see them.
This time, she finally had time to go and see them.
She walked to the door of the ward in a daze. She stood there in a trance.
It had been a long time since her father was hospitalized.
She looked up through the small window on the ward door and saw that Ms. Henderson was massaging the muscles on Professor Wes’ legs.
Sitting on the bed, Professor Wes couldn’t read the book in his hand. He sighed and said, “Brayden came here a few times and said that Adele was busy with work, but no matter how busy she was, she should call…”
“My daughter has worked hard outside. If you let her go to the hospital every day, she can’t take it. I’m happy that she hasn’t come to the hospital often and can rest more…”
“…”
Listening to Professor Wes and Ms. Henderson talking one after another, Adele suddenly felt a bit sour in her heart.
During this period of time, her life was too chaotic, and she did not come to the hospital much. Unconsciously, she neglected her care for her parents.
Thinking of this, she felt even more guilty, and her tears could not help but flow out.
She suddenly missed the carefree life of her family of three before, where they often accompanied each other. At that time, besides her parents and work, she did not have any other bad things in her life. Although it was not exciting, it was also rare to be full.
Unlike now, she could not predict the next step at all.
It was as if her life had been turned upside down ever since she met Damon, and now, the person who was going to accompany him to the marriage hall was not her.
Her heart ached, and Adele could not stop her tears from falling.
At this moment, the door opened. Ms. Henderson stood at the door and looked at Adele in surprise. “Adele, what happened to you? Why are you crying?”
She quickly pulled Adele into the ward. When Professor Wes, who was sitting on the bed, saw this, he immediately sat up in a hurry and wanted to get out of bed. “Adele, who bullied you? Tell Daddy, who bullied you?”
Looking at the two faces in front of her that were full of concern for her, Adele’s tears could not stop flowing.
She seemed to have ignored the people who should accompany her the most for too many other things. The guilt and sadness in her heart mixed together, forming a complex emotion.
Finally, she shook her head and wiped away her tears. She whispered, “No one bullied me. Dad, Mom, I just miss you too much…”
Hearing this, Ms. Henderson’s eyes turned red. He reached out and pulled her into his arms.
Adele smelled the familiar scent on his mother and felt a bit more at ease. He also secretly made up his mind.
When her father finished the heart bridge surgery, she would take them away from the hospital and change jobs. She would accompany them well and officially say goodbye to the trivial things around her. She would say goodbye to Damon and say goodbye to this life.
The next day, Adele returned to work as usual. Just as she arrived at the president’s office, she received a message from Assistant Liu.
Without a labor force, Adele needed to do many more tasks. Originally, she wanted to go and meet Jiang Huanchen again, but…
When Assistant Liu was not here, she had to sit all day and wait for Damon’s orders.
After a night, the two people had a tacit understanding and did not mention what happened last night, as if they were still the most normal president and secretary.
In the morning, Adele received the summary documents sent by several departments. At first, she was puzzled. It was not the end of the month yet. Why did the summary documents of each department come up?
After checking the notice of the company’s intranet, she realized that because of the engagement ceremony, Damon was afraid of delaying her work, so she asked the various departments to hand in the documents in advance.
In this way, the task of the president increased a lot.
Adele looked at the email notification on the computer and felt a little depressed.
In the email, Damon did not hide anything, so he said what he wanted to say and directly explained the engagement ceremony.
In this way, everyone in the company would probably know that he was going to be engaged.
For some reason, Adele felt a little disappointed.
She tidied up the documents that she needed Damon to confirm. She took a deep breath and went to look for Damon with the documents.
When she opened the door, Damon was also very busy. There were more documents than usual on the table.
Adele walked forward, pretending to be calm, and placed the document at the corner of the table. “Mr. Yusuf, these documents also need you to look through them.”
“Yes,” Damon answered, his hands pausing for a moment. He raised his eyes and looked at her. “We need to work overtime tonight. You stay and come with me.”
Adele was silent for a moment, then nodded. “Okay.”
At first, when she thought that she wanted to be alone with Damon, she wanted to refuse, but the more it was like that, the more she wanted to cover it up, so she might as well just agree.
Adele paused and glanced at Damon. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll go get busy.”
“Wait a minute.”
Damon put down the document in his hand and looked at her seriously. “I have something to tell you. Director Feng has formulated the latest operation plan. He told me that as long as your father’s physical examination is fine, he can prepare for the operation.”
