Chapter 869 All Awkward Again
Nevertheless, he was a very considerate person, and he was very kind toward Emmeline.
Knowing that she was worried and didn't want to go to see Jara directly, he walked over and explained. "Miss Illington, you don't have to worry too much. Just now, the doctor had already gave Mr. Holland a thorough examination. He is fine.He just need to recuperate at home for a period of time."
Stunned, Emmeline pursed her lips upon hearing that, and thought that she didn't even ask him about Jara's condition.
However, a thought came to her mind, and in the end, she nodded. In a soft voice, she said. "Uncle Poick, thank you for your hard work."
Uncle Poick returned with a smile and said, "As long as you and Mr. Holland are good, it's not difficult for me."
Upon hearing that, Emmeline was stunned.
She didn't know what Uncle Poick meant by 'good' in his words.
It meant that they were both safe and well-behaved, or he was actually saying that they should not quarrel with each other again?
Suddenly, Emmeline was a little confused, and she couldn't stop herself from letting her imagination run wild. Realizing that her thoughts had been wrong, she quickly stopped thinking.
Then, she replied, "I'm fine on my side. You should carry on with your work."
Uncle Poick nodded, then left.
With Uncle Poick leaving, Emmeline also returned to her room.
It wasn't until dinner time that she saw Jara again.
Jara was injured and naturally couldn't go downstairs to eat, but he just didn't want to stay upstairs alone and said that it was boring to eat alone, so he asked Emmeline to go upsstairs to accompany him.
How could Emmeline not know what this man was thinking?
Originally, she didn't want to go, but in the end, she reluctantly went because he was a patient.
In the bedroom upstairs.
Uncle Poick had already ordered for the food to be prepared. Other than the few dishes that Jara could eat, the rest were all Emmeline favourites.
Because Jara was currently heavily injured, he couldn't eat many things. He could only eat a few nutritious and light foods.
Although Emmeline hadn't fully recover yet, they were generally all good. What was left was just to wait for her bones to grow nicely.
Therefore, she didn't need to avoid eating any food and could eat anything. It was because of this that the dishes in front of her were particularly lavish.
Uncle Poick knew that she had been working too hard these past few days. Because she was worried about Jara's safety, she hadn't been able to eat well. Today, she could finally ease up her tension. Naturally, he was going to prepare the best food for her to compensate.
Seeing that, Emmeline didn't refuse. After sitting down, she began to eat.
The way they ate had been trained together since childhood, so they were both very quiet.
There was no one talking in the room, only the sound of two people chewing the food quietly, and the clear sound of forks and knives accidentally clinking on the glass plates.
Perhaps because he had only suffered a serious injury once, Jara's appetite was not very good.
He could only manage some soup and could not eat anymore.
With a pause, Emmeline looked at the bowl he put down, and immediately, she filled the bowl for him again without hesitation.
Then, she said in a deep voice, "Drink a little bit more."
Seeing that, Jara was speechless.
However, he looked at her with aggrieved eyes. "I can't eat anymore."
In turn, Emmeline said in a low voice, "You'll have to eat more even if you don't want to."
He had lost so much blood. If he didn't eat to replenish his nutrients and stamina, how would he recover quickly?
Of course, she would never say those words out loud.
Looking at her, Jara realized her appetite was quite good, and she didn't eat less because she had changed to another location to eat.
Just by gazing at her, he suddenly felt that his appetite seemed to be better.
Hence, he picked up the bowl and started to drink again.
On the other side, Uncle Poick had been watching all of this silently, and his heart was filled with joy.
In the past, Jara was the kng in the castle, and he would have the final say in everything.
As long as he had made the decision, no one else could change it.
Therefore, no one could change his mind.
But things were different now.
Now, there was finally a person who could control him, and would never allow him to do whatever he wanted.
It was so good.
The corner of Uncle Poick's mouth couldn't help but curl upwards.
After dinner, the servants took the food away.
Emmeline took a look at Jara, who was lying on the bed. Seeing that his handsome and pale face, which had lost too much blood, had finally become a little rosy, her mood couldn't help but become much better.
Hence, she asked, "Are you bored? Do you want to go out and get some fresh air?"
Jara's eyes lit up.
"Can I?"
After all, he was seriously injured now.
Smiling, Emmeline turned around, and said to Uncle Poick, "Please help me bring the wheelchair I used before."
Uncle Poick didn't know what she was going to do, even though he didn't quite agree with him going out for some fresh air in his current condition.
However, when he saw that both of them were in high spirits, he couldn't bear to disappoint them.
Thus, he agreed and left.
Soon, the wheelchair was brought over.
Initially, Jara thought that she wanted to bring him out for a walk, but when Emmeline ordered someone to carry him onto the wheelchair and pushed him to the balcony, he finally understood.
It turned out that 'to get some fresh air' was really as it meant.
And Jara couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
But when he thought that he could stay with her quietly, he felt relieved.
The balcony was very large. But except for some plants, there was nothing else on it, so it looked a little empty.
It was already late at night.
As the castle's lights lit up, it illuminated a small lake around that area.
Sitting on the balcony, they could see the silhouette of the distant mountains in the dark on the other side of the lake.
Meanwhile, Jara sensed that something wasn't right and asked, "Do you have something to say to me?"
Otherwise, why would she take him some for some 'fresh air' today?
But Emmeline looked down at him and said, "You think too much."
After that, she looked away.
At the moment, he was sitting, and she was standing.
So when he looked up at her from his angle, he could see her chin, which was as smooth as jade, glowing with a lustrous luster.
For some reason, Jara believed her.
Then, he only responded helplessly. "Mmm."
With a pause, Emmeline somehow felt that his voice contained a lot of meanings.
Looking at him, she smiled faintly. "Why? Because I'm suddenly a little nicer to you, you're not used to it?"
Jara didn't know what his Queen was thinking. All he could do was to fawn over her and smile, carefully saying, "Yes, a little."
Hearing that, Emmeline chuckled.
Then, she whispered, "I used to treat you well, didn't I?"
Jara thought for a moment. To be honest, Emmeline was indeed very kind to him in the past.
But that kind of kindness was different from what it was now.
At that time, no matter how close they were to each other, she always looked fierce.
