Chapter 848 There Was Someone Behind
"It's much better. The doctor said that I will be completely recovered in a month."
Hearing that there was still a month to go, not only did Kamryn not show a relaxed expression, he even frowned.
"It must be a very serious injury."
IIn response, Emmeline nodded.
But, she didn't explain the cause of her injury. Since they had just met, it was not appropriate for Kamryn to ask too much about it.
Lest she would think he overstepped the boundary.
Therefore, he could only say, "Miss Illington, you have to be careful in the future. I wish you a speedy recovery."
With a smile, Emmeline responded, "Thank you."
Then, neither of them spoke again. When they arrived at the restroom, Kamryn pointed to the front and said, "It's over there. Miss Illington, you can go there by yourself."
Seeing that, Emmeline nodded, and thanked him again before she went in.
After using the restroom, she touched up her look in front of the mirror. Then she turned around and was ready to leave.
However, at this moment, when her hand landed on the restroom door handle, her body froze all of a sudden.
After going through the edge of life and death for many years, her intuition told her that there was someone else in the restroom.
Because this was the VIP area, and the restroom was also independent. There was only a toilet and a wash basin in the restroom.
When she came in just now, it was empty inside and it was impossible for someone to be there, so...
Then, Emmeline clenched the door handle and took a deep breath before opening the door.
Nearby, Kamryn was still waiting for her.
When Emmeline saw him, she was a little surprised. She thought that he had left when he led her here.
Walking over, she said with a smile, "So sorry that I am troubling you to wait for me here."
As Kamryn threw the cigarette in his hand into the trash can, he replied, "No trouble at all. I am free anyway."
After a pause, he spoke again, "Are you done? If you are, then let's go."
Hearing that, Emmeline nodded.
Thus, the two of them walked out together.
However, just after two steps forward, Emmeline suddenly stopped, turning around in a jiff, and said, "Oh no. I lost my bracelet. It might have fallen in the restroom. I'll go back to and look for it."
Seeing that, Kamryn turned around in surprise, and asked as he caught up to her, "What bracelet is it? Do you need my help?"
However, Emmeline shook her head.
Right at that moment, she looked up and saw a lady dressed in a cleaner's outfit coming out of the restroom. It seemed that she was cleaning the room.
Immediately, she frowned slightly.
At this time, Kamryn had already walked up to her. Noticing that she stopped walking, and her eyes were fixed in the direction of the restroom, he could not help but felt confused.
"What's wrong?"
Looking up at him, Emmeline suddenly took out a delicate leaf bracelet from her sleeve.
"I don't have to look for it anymore. It turns out it was entangled with the lace of the dress sleeve."
Seeing this, Kamryn heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Thank goodness you didn't drop it. Let's go now."
Then, Emmeline nodded.
The two of them walked out together.
Meanwhile, Emmeline had been paying attention to the movements behind her. It was only when she made sure there was no one following her that she knitted her eyebrows.
Could it be that she was overthinking things just now?
Did the cleaner really just go in to clean the restroom?
Somehow Emmeline had a very strange feeling about it.
But on second thought, she felt that she might be too nervous and sensitive.
When they arrived at the venue outside, Emmeline found out that Jara had been looking for her.
Walking over, she found Jara. Seeing that she was standing together with Kamryn, Jara's eyes darkened. He quickly walked over and asked, "Why didn't you let me know you came out?"
Jara spoke in a slightly reproachful tone, which sounded very intimate.
When Kamryn looked at them, he was a little surprised.
"Mr. Holland and Miss Illington, do you know each other?"
As one of Isaac's best buddies, even though he wasn't familiar with Jara, he had seen him before.
Therefore, the two of them knew each other.
But he didn't know that Emmeline came with Jara.
Following that, Jara looked up at Kamryn, and before he could speak, Emmeline was the first to speak.
She said to Kamryn with a smile, "Mr. Mejia, thank you for taking care of me and taking me to the restroom just now. Sorry to bother you. I'm fine now."
Hearing that, Kamryn took a deep look at her, then at Jara. After all, it was inappropriate for him to ask too much, so he turned around and left.
After he left, Jara said to Emmeline, "Do your feet hurt?"
With a nod, Emmeline replied, "A little."
As soon as she finished his words, she felt her body being lifted up as he carried her in his arms.
Reflexively, Emmeline couldn't help but let out a scream. Startled, she had a change of expression as she put her arms around his neck subconsciously, and exclaimed, "What are you doing?"
In turn, Jara looked impassive and did not move at all. "Didn't you say that your legs hurt?"
"I... "
Although her feet were hurting, she didn't ask him to carry her.
But she didn't get her words out, because Jara was already carrying her into the lounge.
Meanwhile, not far away, Kamryn looked back at this scene and frowned deeply.
After entering the lounge, Jara placed Emmeline on the sofa and then crouched down in front of her. Holding her ankle, he took off her shoes.
Seeing that, Emmeline said immediately, "Don't..."
Before she could finish her words, the man had already seen her slightly swollen feet.
He could not help but frown.
Although the doctor said that Emmeline could go out and walk now, he also said that it was better not to stand too long in high heels.
Now, it was obvious that she had been standing for too long.
When he returned earlier, he heard that Emmeline was drinking and playing games with the boys. Then, when he looked at the foot again, he was filled with anger.
Looking up at her, he asked, "What did I tell you before I left? I told you to stay put and wait for me. Why didn't you behave yourself and went to play games with them?"
Although Emmeline felt a little guilty, her eyes were slightly blinking as she tried to avoid any eye contact with him.
Nonetheless, she said stubbornly, "It's none of your business that I'm playing with them."
However, as soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt a shadow in front of her. The next second, her lips were blocked.
With that, Emmeline's eyes widened in surprise.
It was a very sentimental and in-depth kiss.
For countless times, she had described his lips in detail. When she dreamed about it at night, she could always recall its sweet taste.
However, when they met again, she could only suppress herself and watch from a distance, not daring to approach.
The torture was unbearable!
It was not until today when he kissed her again that she realized the memories she thought she had forgotten were actually only temporarily tucked at the bottom of her heart.
All she needed was a little bit of trigger, and she would be able to bring out all those wonderful memories.
At first, Emmeline refused the kiss.
The kiss came out of nowhere. She didn't know how it happened and why it happened.
But as his lips fell on her lips, it seemed to have the intention of going further.
