Emily lowered her head and unfastened the seatbelt on her, waiting for Simon to unlock the door. But after a long time, he still did not do it. Emily turned her face to remind him, "Simon, we arrived!"
Simon, who was sitting on the driver's seat, looked ahead with her peach blossom eyes, his hands tightly clenching on the steering wheel.
As he clenched his hands harder, his knuckles whitened and blue veins stood out on the back of his hands.
Emily, looking at him calmly, was not in a hurry.
"Simon!" She urged.
Simon suddenly turned to look at her.
The stifling atmosphere pushed him to the verge of losing control of his frantic emotions. He wanted to shout out loud to break the deadly silence. However, as his eyes landed on her ghastly pale face, he instantly swallowed his anger and held his tongue.
She had lost a lot of weight, and her chin became pointed.
Her bright, beautiful eyes turned dull and lusterless.
When Simon recalled her pitiful look when she was pushed into the operating room by the nurses, he suddenly became weak all over as if all his strength had been sucked away. His right hand on the steering wheel dropped powerless down.

When the car door was unlocked, Simon watched her get out of the car and leave.
While walking away, she did not look back once and headed forward slowly without hesitation. It seemed that she was determined not to get entangled with him anymore.
Emily followed Anthea upstairs.
Anthea's apartment was in the middle of the building, which was the best position. Though the apartment was not very big, it was snug. As soon as they entered the door, they could see the large floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room. The indoor lighting was very good, and there were two bedrooms and a living room. Also, the kitchen and bathroom were nice and lovely.
Anthea put her bag on the sofa and poured Emily a glass of water.
"Emily, it's less than a month since you had the operation, so you have to pay attention to everything. I'll take good care of you!" Anthea took her hand and continued, "You're in the weakest period and lack Qi and blood. You should rest well and can't be blown by the wind. Every time you take a bath or wash your hair, you should dry your head and body in time to keep warm. Try not to use the air conditioner. Besides, you can't read or watch TV for too long!"
Emily put down the glass, thinking that Anthea looked more like the director of obstetrics and gynecology than her close friend at this time.
Listening to Anthea's nagging, she could not help but smile and say, "Why does it sound like you're
quite experienced in this field?"
A trace of sadness flashed past Anthea's face, but it disappeared the next second. She raised her eyebrows and smiled. "Emily, I am a doctor, am I not?"
Emily shook her head and burst out laughing.
Anthea was afraid that she would feel cold, so she walked over, drew back the white curtains, and let the sunlight flood into the living room.
They were on the 12th floor. Though the apartment was not the top of the building, it still had a wide and clear vision there.
Anthea glanced downstairs, turned his head, and said with hesitation, "Emily, it seems that Dr. Chin has not yet left!"
"Let him stay there as he pleases!" said Emily in a low voice.
Seeing this, Anthea did not want to say anything more. She nodded, walked back, and took her to see the bedroom.
