Chapter 846 Attending The Birthday Party
However, he was, after all, a very experienced person.
Immediately, he put on a straight face and walked over.
"Why haven't you slept yet?"
He asked in a magnetic and deep voice.
On the other hand, Emmeline looked at him and did not answer his question. Instead, she asked, "Have you finished your business?"
Obviously, Jara knew what she was asking.
Looking at the woman in front of him, he did not rush to answer. Instead, he thought to himself that the way she asked this question, was she still angry at him?
With Emmeline's character, he knew that if she was angry, she would never ask him.
She wouldn't even bother to talk to him.
In fact, it was a common for her to ignore him.
In that case, was she not angry anymore?
Although Jara didn't know the reason, there was still a glimmer of hope in his heart.
With a nod, he said, "Yes, it's done."
Both of them looked at each other in silence for a moment.
As Emmeline was overwhelmed with mixed feelings, she didn't know what to say at the moment.
However, Jara was uncertain as he didn't know what she was thinking right now. If he said something wrong and without careful consideration, it would be like adding fuel to the flames.
Therefore, he didn't dare to speak.
After a moment of silence, Emmeline sighed softly and said, "Since everything is done, you should go to bed early, I..."
With a pause, she still could not get her words out in the end. It was as if the words had horns. The moment they reached the tip of her tongue, they were stuck.
In the end, she just said one sentence, "I'm going back to my room."
After that, she turned around in a hurry and was ready to leave.
However, just as she turned around, Jara called her.
"Wait a minute."
Taking a few steps forward, he walked in front of her, and stopped her.
Then, Emmeline looked up at him.
Jara had a jade-like face. Under the dim light, the chiselled outline of his face made him look handsome. Perhaps it was because he had drunk some wine, his skin was slightly red, which he looked completely different from his usual cold temperament.
Looking at her, he hesitated for a while before saying, "You... Were you waiting for me to come back?"
Hearing that, Emmeline was stunned.
Carefully glancing at his gaze, she suddenly felt as if something had pricked her heart.
Hence, she pursed her lips and did not deny it. Instead, she nodded silently.
After seeing her response, it was as if a huge wave of joy had taken over Jara's eyes.
He couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth and asked her, "Do you have something to say to me?"
After some thought, Emmeline shook her head.
Originally, she was going to say it.
But for some reason, when the words were at the tip of her tongue, she couldn't say them out loud.
But, she didn't want to force herself, so she thought she would just let it be. Time will prove everything. Maybe one day, she would be able to see through his heart, and also her own.
Before that, there was no need to say anything else.
On that thought, she looked up at him and smiled at him gently.
"Rest early."
After that, she did not give him any chance to speak anymore, as she turned around and hurried back to her room.
Seeing that, Jara was a little confused by her actions. He had no idea what she was trying to say. He stood there and thought for a long time, but still, he couldn't figure it out.
However, he was never the kind of person to ponder over the unknown. Since he couldn't figure it out, he might as well not think about it.
Anyway, it was fine as long as she was not angry with him.
Following that, Jara also returned to his room to rest.
The next day was Isaac's birthday.
He had already sent an invitation and asked both of them to attend.
Both of them had already agreed, so naturally, they would be present today.
In the morning, when the doctor came to check Emmeline's wounds, he was surprised to find that the injury on her leg was almost healed.
Although she still couldn't walk for too long and couldn't run or jump, standing or walking slowly was not a problem at all.
The injury on Emmeline's ribs was almost healed as well. Seeing this, she asked not to sit in a wheelchair today, but to take a car with them.
Naturally, Jara agreed.
Today, because it was a formal occasion, both of them were wearing formal outfits.
Jara was dressed in a black suit, and Emmeline was wearing a light blue long dress.
Her hair was a little longer now. Although she couldn't tie it in a bun yet, she could still curl it.
Therefore, early in the morning, Uncle Poick had called for a stylist and did a simple and unique hairstyle for Emmeline.
Her shoulder-length short hair was slightly curled up. Together with her delicate and pretty face, she looked like an ethereal beauty.
When Jara saw her, he couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
They of people arrived at Isaac's venue by car.
This was a five-star hotel. Most of the people who came were Isaac's friends.
Perhaps the elders of Isaac's family members were worried that they couldn't mingle with the youngsters, except at the beginning, they didn't show up again.
Everyone brought a female companion, and the female guests brought their male companions. Emmeline had come with Jara, so naturally, she was his partner.
Among Isaac's friends, most of them knew Jara. As a result, many people came over for a toast.
Because of Emmeline's injury, she couldn't drink alcohol. Jara was worried that she would get tired if she stood for too long, and he was also afraid it would cause stress to her wounds. So when they got there, he took her to the lounge to rest first.
It was still early.
So Emmeline asked him to enjoy himself, and it didn't matter if she stayed in the lounge alone.
They were both not the kind who would want to stick together all the time, so he didn't say anything else and left after settling her down.
After he left, Emmeline picked up her mobile phone and nestled on the sofa to play with it.
About half an hour later, there was a noise outside.
The room she stayed in was a separate lounge. Jara had specially asked for it for her because he knew that she didn't like to mingle with strangers.
Therefore, people would not come here.
But since it was so loud outside, it was obvious that someone was approaching.
She looked up and as expected, Isaac leading a party of people to her with a smile.
"Emmeline, I've been looking for you for a long time and was wondering why I couldn't find you anywhere. Turns out that you were hiding here and playing with your phone secretly. Today is my birthday, and it's not easy for you to come here. How can you hide here alone? Come, come, come out and have fun with me."
Hearing that, Emmeline couldn't help but laugh. "I can't drink, so I can't join you. It's best if I don't ruin your mood."
Although she said so, she was already standing up.
After all, he was the birthday boy. It was not polite to reject him.
Waving his big hand, Isaac said nonchalantly, "I know you can't drink, and no one forces you to drink anyway. You can drink water and they will drink alcohol, so come and with us."
Then, without giving her a chance to speak, he pulled her out with him.
