Emily was puzzled, but she still did as he said. When she held out her right hand in confusion, as if he were performing a magic show, he put a ring on her ring finger, which fitted just right.
The handmade silver ring was plain and elegant, but it was also delicate and exquisite with the initials of their names on it.
The two initials were next to each other side by side as if they could never be separate. A deep voice was above Emily's head, "Mrs. Chin, this ring makes you my wife. You don't ever take it off after I put it on your finger, okay..."
Emily opened her eyes bit by bit, feeling confused about the reality and the dream.
She fell into the memory absentmindedly, not knowing how she dreamed of these things for no reason. Maybe seeing the old photos of the middle-aged couple's wedding last night and talking about their honeymoon made her remember the days she spent with Simon in Sagria City.
Simon's eyes moved slightly. He was so close to Emily that she could see his handsome face clearly.
Supporting his chin with his hand, Simon woke up and stared at Emily with a faint smile on his face.
Because the distance was too close, she could faintly feel his breathing.
Emily was shocked.
Last night, she used the quilt as a boundary between them. But now they were both under it. Feeling so on edge, she sat up with her arms holding herself.
Emily looked at Simon nervously and warily. After seeing that his clothes were all on him with only some folds and feeling certain that he had done nothing to her, she finally managed to relax.
But Simon was staring at her closely, making her a little scared, "Simon, why are you looking at me like this?"
"Nothing!" Simon answered with a smile.
His smile was devilish and proud!
"..." Emily frowned, feeling that something was wrong with him, but she couldn't tell what.
She looked at Simon suspiciously and found his chin was slightly up and his eyes were a little deep. He said, "You'd better put the quilt back on you. You look seductive!"
"..." Emily lowered her head and flushed immediately.
Because she moved a lot just now, the collar of her long dress got opened, revealing her skin. She pulled the quilt in a hurry to cover her body.
The middle-aged woman seemed to have heard them, came to knock at the door, and said, "Kids, did you two wake up?"
Simon and Emily walked out of the room and found the middle-aged couple had already got up, making breakfast in the kitchen. Although the house was a bungalow, the room was warm, and the aroma of food was flowing in the air.
The middle-aged woman asked them with a smile, "Did you sleep well last night? The bed is small. It should be a little of a squeeze for you. I'm sorry. Come and have breakfast with us!"
Emily didn't want to answer the first question. She shook her head and said, "Madam, thank you. I'm not hungry. I have to hurry back!"
Outside, the sky was already bright with the bright rays of morning sunshine enveloped the earth.
Now, all she wanted to do was to go back as soon as possible. Last night, she missed the meeting and failed to reach Calvin and the others. Now she was eager to know how Calvin was doing...
When they were leaving, Simon took some money out of his wallet to express his gratitude to the middle-aged couple, but the middle-aged couple refused to accept anything, thinking that it was only a little help for letting them stay and giving them food.
Seeing the middle-aged couple persist, Simon had to give up.
