Gorgeous Couple’s Sweet Love novel Chapter 127

The terms sounded attractive, but I smiled and said, "It's work. There's nothing I can do. But I'll bring him back a gift."

Benjamin stared at me for a long time, as if he wanted to see through something. He stared at me with his black eyes and asked, "What about my gift?"

I smiled and said, "Well, if you give me money, I will bring one for you. Since you are my ex-husband, I'm not gonna charge you for anything extra."

This time, Benjamin was completely silent.

That night, he hugged me, and I slept in his arms. I looked at the darkness fading outside and the first ray of light popped up into the sky. I didn't feel sleepy at all.

In his arms, it was difficult for me to sleep.

I would never feel safe again!

I remembered that I used to have a hunch around him that he would abandon me at the end. I didn't expect that this had actually become true. Now I also had a hunch. I had a hunch that he was entangling me and just because wanted to play, just wanted to see me look more down and out.

He was waiting for me to drop off my guards and then gave me the hardest blow.

Fool me twice, shame on me.

How on earth would he be willing to let me go?

Just how badly was he going to hurt me?

Benjamin was very confused when he opened his eyes. After he closed his eyes for a long while, he asked in a slightly hoarse voice, "What time is it?"

I said lightly, "Six, my staff will go to work in two hours. I think it's time for you to leave."

Benjamin rubbed my cheeks and went to the bathroom. When he came out, he picked up the white shirt on the ground and put it on. His slender fingers were buttoning the shirt and he said, "When will you leave City B?"

"3 p.m." I lied.

Benjamin answered with an "Alright" and asked, "Where are you going?"

After a moment of silence, I lied again. "The UK," I said.

Benjamin stopped and didn't ask any more questions. After he left, I went to September, but the maid told me that September left.

Panicked, I asked, "Where did she go?"

Where could she go alone?

"She said that you should call her by this number."

The maid handed me a phone number on it. I dialed and asked directly, "Where are you?"

September smiled and asked, "Do you still remember Patrick?"

Patrick was the name of the Austrian handsome man.

"You're in Austria?" I asked in surprise.

"Well, I'll use the rest of my life to be unbridled," she said.

I closed my eyes and asked, "Do you want to be with him?"

"He's willing to spend a few months with me, and I... I'm willing to spend a few months pursuing the pleasure of my body."

September said in a faint voice, "I can tell you honestly - I love Joel, but I wanna give whatever time I have left to a soul that I really can rely on. Patrick doesn't love me much, maybe not at all, and neither do I. But at least we can please our bodies."

"What are you thinking, September?!" I said anxiously, "Joel can give you whatever you think he can give you, why bother..."

"I know he can, but I can't afford it!" September smiled and said, "Don't worry about me. The doctor said that if I'm in a good mood, I can still live a little longer, and that's exactly what I'm doing now, making myself happy! Besides, it's not easy for me to convince Patrick to come here to me. Don't make things difficult for me. And the Jenkins family will officially belong to you after the New Year."

September had her own decision, and I really couldn't intervene. I was silent for a moment, and she said, "I am now living with Patrick in a hut beside this lake. He is swimming in the lake with two dogs. He smiles very brightly and has the ability to cure me."

September said, "Emma, I hope there will be a miracle, but I don't want the miracle to be given to me by Joel'."

She said repressedly, "I want to live, I want to live to see Neil grow up, and Patrick really can cure me. I want him to be with in for as long as he can, or I can."

I said, "You gave a lot of expectations to Patrick."

"He takes good care of me," she said.

I was happy for September. At least she was happy now, but I was sad for Joel because he was ignorant of September's illness even now and no one can tell him.

I hoped that there will be a miracle for September, but what was the probability of a miracle? There is no such thing as a miracle in thousands of people who suffered from the disease she was suffering from.

September actually placed all her hopes on a miracle. How... desperate was she? I knew that she couldn't bear to part with this world. I knew that she was very sad, but I couldn't help her at all.

When I went to the villa to visit my grandfather, he was coaxing Neil in his arms, and his face was full of kindness... A cold young man would always grow old to be kind and amiable.

Grandpa was so good to me and Joel, but he was so cruel to my father and mother.

Apart from me and Joel, there was no one else left in the Shears family. Joel told me that his parents left home long ago because of our grandfather.

No one knew the exact reason.

It had become a mystery of the Shears family.

When Grandpa saw me, he said bluntly, "Why did you send Emy to Ireland?"

"Where am I supposed to send her to then?" I asked, smiling.

"To me, of course! I got nothing to do anyway! And her being here would give you one more excuse to come to this house!"

I explained softly, " Ireland is a beautiful place, and my aunt has got two sons who are both more than ten years old. That is a comfortable and healthy environment for Emy to grow up in. Besides, Emy could learn both English and French there, since aunt's husband emigrated there from France. All in all, she's better there than being with me."
