Chapter 406
The night returned. The quietness of the night gathered from all directions, devouring the original brightness.
At a turn in the mountains.
A Porsche and a Mercedes-Benz were parked on one side of the road in turn.
The driver inside said worriedly, “Miss, do you really not need me to follow you?”
He was in charge of picking her up but was sending her to someone else’s car. If Frank found out, he would probably be
beaten to death.
He stood rooted to the ground, unwilling to leave. He was extremely nervous. The man wore his glasses and looked even quieter in the night. He said warmly. ‘She’ll take my car. You can follow behind. That way, you can explain yourself.”
Tom gave Edward a grateful look. What a good person. “Okay, okay.”
With that, he quickly got into the car and prepared to follow closely behind.
Edward walked around the back of the car and helped to open the passenger seat. In the end, Rose did not move. It was as if she was trying to figure out something. A few seconds later, she asked, “Can I drive?”
Edward was speechless.
Hearing this. Edward stood by the passenger door in a daze. The door had already been opened, and their he met Rose’s expectant gaze, Edward gasped and compromised. “Yes,”
After saying this word, Edward even suspected that he was possessed.
eyes met. When
Seeing that he agreed, a smile immediately appeared on Rose’s face. She quickly opened the driver’s door and sat down. Edward didn’t even have the chance to help open it.
Seeing that Edward was still standing outside the car, she opened the window and shouted at Edward, “What are you waiting for? Get in the car. I’ll make you fly.”
Edward was speechless again.
He paused for a few seconds and looked around at the dark environment. He could not help but feel a little worried.
He got into the car and closed the door. The first thing he did was turn on the GPS and enter his destination, Athana Medical University.
After entering it, he subconsciously grabbed the handhold on the seat and leaned back in the chair. He turned his head and instructed Rose to patiently explain the car’s performance and operation.
Although Rose could drive, the performance and functions of every car were more or less different.
For the sake of his life, Edward didn’t want to be sent away to heaven before anyone could catch up to him.
Rose, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, did not start the engine just now because she was only a little familiar with the accelerator and brakes. Other than that, she was a little unfamiliar with the rest. She listened attentively and nodded.
Rose kindly suggested that she just didn’t know the way and she drove steadily and didn’t race. “I understand. I’ll drive then. Don’t be afraid. Why do I feel that you’re a little nervous? I can’t drive fast. You don’t have to hold the handrail. It’s too tiring to hold it, and your hands are still raised so high.”
“Looking at how tired he was,” Rose thought.
“Well, I’m used to pulling it when I’m in the car. If there’s nothing else, you can drive.”
Edward coughed awkwardly. Sitting in the front passenger seat was even more vigilant than Rose, who was sitting in the driver’s seat. He was always prepared for resuscitation.
He was risking his life to chase after someone. If Frank Roberts found out, he would definitely think highly of him.
Rose started the car and moved forward steadily. Her moving body appeared in front of Edward again. In order not to hurt her, he chose to ignore her. However, the graceful driving dance would still appear in his mind, and he could not help but laugh.
Hearing the voice, Rose did not turn her head. She stared seriously ahead and only opened her lips slightly. “What are you laughing at?”
Edward really wanted to say that he was quite happy to be with her. It was a little provocative to think about it. Moreover, they were not together yet, so it seemed a little frivolous. “No, I just thought of something fun.”
Curious Rose came online and kept asking. At this moment, there was no longer any discomfort or awkwardness between them because Rose was driving seriously and chatting. “Then share it with me. What’s fun?”
Edward didn’t expect her to ask such a question. It didn’t seem like it was the case if he didn’t answer, but it would be impolite to directly say that he wanted to laugh because of the way she was driving. It might even affect her confidence.
He quickly searched his mind for a joke to make up for it. In the end, he pulled his niece out. She was a pediatrician, so she would probably like to talk about children. “I just suddenly thought of my niece, Ruby”
Sure enough. Rose was very happy. It was a turn and she needed to turn the steering wheel to the right so that Rose’s body was also tilted. Edward sat on the side and resisted the thought of helping her correct it.
After the car drove in a straight line, Rose asked again, “Ruby, Sherri’s daughter. I like her very much too. She’s especially cute. Hackett Blackwell really loves her
“Yes, Ruby is the treasure of the family. A few days ago, she was eating watermelon and accidentally ate the watermelon seeds. She was extremely anxious. When my mother saw that she was about to cry, she went to ask why. In the end, the little fellow pursed her lips and refused to say anything. Her hand was pressed against her stomach.”
When Rose heard that, she frowned and thought that it was Ruby’s stomach pain. As a pediatrician, she did not want her
child to fall sick.
Edward had always been a person who could observe expressions. When he saw Rose frowning, he explained first. “Ruby isn’t sick. She thought that the watermelon seeds would germinate in her stomach and grow watermelons. Her stomach would burst”
Rose’s reflex are was very short, and she laughed at once. The entire enclosed carriage was filled with her hearty laughter. and she did not hide it at all.
Edward just looked at her and smiled. He liked it very much and it was very infectious.
She kept laughing for a while. Rose’s driving skills were average. She was definitely looking ahead. Of course, she did not know that Edward was looking at her. The only thing she could manage was the front of the road. After all, there were two lives. She had to drive seriously.
She could move her mouth, but she couldn’t move her eyes. This was her bottom line when it came to driving.
The car followed the navigation and arrived at Athana Medical University’s barbecue restaurant. This was the restaurant where Sherri. Natalie, and Edward often came to eat.
The reason why Edward brought Rose here was very simple. He wanted to tell her that he had let go. He did not bring her here today to miss Natalie’s past. Instead, he wanted to bring her to places he had visited before and felt that they were good. For example, the barbeque in this restaurant was delicious and the lady boss was very good.
After Rose got out of the car, he looked around. Many of them were young. Some of them were still talking about medicine when they passed by. She glanced at it. This was Natalie and Sherri’s university.
“I don’t mean anything else. I just want to tell you that my heart is empty. Edward explained immediately before she misunderstood.
“You guys used to come here often?” She was not a particularly unreasonable person. Edward repeatedly emphasized that he was not a scumbag. She also believed in her own judgment.
“It was always three people when I came.” It could be considered as explaining to Rose that he had never been alone with
Natalie.
This sentence indeed sounded inexplicably comfortable to Rose. She also liked to say whatever was on her mind. She didn’t want him to misunderstand her today and suspect her tomorrow. She had always liked to be direct.
Just like William and Grace, they would never let a misunderstanding stay overnight. If the misunderstanding was not resolved, both of them would not sleep. They would sleep when it was resolved. This was the principle that they had upheld for so many years.
William said that marriage was like this. The idea of a divorce could not be born overnight. It was accumulated over time, and the death of the heart was not instantaneous. It was also accumulated over time.
If one problem was not solved today, if another problem was not solved tomorrow, things would pile up. For example, if work piled up a little today and a little tomorrow, it would pile up over time. By the time the leaders came to check on you, you would no longer know which one you wanted to do first.
Rose had always felt that William’s idea was right. She also liked this kind of directness. She did not want to contradict small problems. There was no need to go around the Earth and return to the original place for things that could be explained in a few sentences.
While the two of them were talking, they had already arrived at the front desk. The lady boss knew Edward. He was a regular customer. As soon as she saw him, she said warmly, “Hey, handsome, it’s been a long time. There’s a change today. Where are your two sisters? They didn’t come today.”
Sister?
Rose wondered if Natalie was Edward’s younger sister in the eyes of others.
The lady boss had always been a talkative person. She glanced at Rose and praised, “Young lady, you’re not bad-looking. A
fiend?”
Rose smiled back politely. The next second, her defense was broken.
Edward told the truth in all seriousness. Tm chasing her.”
