Stefan looked livid. Then he held her hand tight, "Leave him alone! Honey, that's his job. Are you hungry now?"
Emmeline shook her head, "No. Are we going to the hotel?"
"No. I have lived here for a period of time when I went here to cure my legs. So I have a house here." Stefan held her hand.
Soon, the car reached beside a nice house.
The house looked just like a castle in the front. Under the moonlight, Emmeline could see the white wall on its surface and a gilt gate, on the yard of which there were parked two Rolls-Royce Phantoms.
Stefan got off the car and got himself onto the wheelchair. He pushed the door opened. The decoration was brand new and all furniture was well organized.
After putting away the luggage, Paul went to the kitchen to cook some food. Arthur was about to leave, "Stefan, just have a nice sleep. I will be here to have lunch tomorrow."
Stefan glanced at him, "Have you been starving yourself? Why do you come for meals as soon as I arrive?"
Arthur was speechless, 'What a stingy guy! It was I who picked you up!'
Seeing that Emmeline was taking the luggage herself to go upstairs, he walked over to Stefan, "This girl is much better than Anayah. Stefan, what a treasure for you!"
"She is my wife!" Stefan squinted at him.
"Hey, Stefan, don't forget that you brought her here! You can't always keep her in the dark, right? Are you sure she won't betray you? Besides, the name of your wife in your marriage certificate is Anayah Campbell." Arthur looked at him while holding a key.
Stefan looked sullen and frowned, "I will handle all these."
As Arthur just left, Emmeline went downstairs and saw Stefan sitting on the couch, silent. Then she walked over, "Did Mr. Arthur leave?"
"Yes. His name is Arthur Roberts. The manager of the branch in France." Stefan replied casually.
"I know. He is your best friend, right? I still remember that you tell me both Jaiden and Asher are also your best friends. All of you stay together like brothers." Then she sat beside him.
"Stefan, don't be pessimistic. Your legs will recover. Besides, you have so many friends. They all hope that you can stand up again. When will we meet the doctor?"
She deemed herself that if his legs recovered, her work would be done.
Stefan still remained silent. He just stared at her. He could tell that she really cared about him from the bottom of her heart. He just fixed his eyes on her tiny pretty face.
'Honey, don't betray me. Just stay with me. I will give you a nice life and all my love!'
After taking some food, they went upstairs to take a bath and sleep.
When Emmeline got up the next morning, Stefan took her to have a house tour around. As they entered the study, Emmeline saw a lot of comic pictures there. She walked over with great surprise, "Did you draw all these? So beautiful!"
Stefan walked over, "Yes. I drew these to kill time when I stayed here to cure my legs. You like them?"
Emmeline nodded, "Yes, you are so good at drawing! I major in design but I love drawing. I have ever attended a drawing competition in the campus and I won a prize."
She still remembered she draw a painting named The Green Beauty when she went hiking with Agnes and Antonio. The painting was about a little blossom growing on a rock on a mountain.
When Antonio took her painting to compete in a show held in campus, then she happened to win a third prize, which made her quite happy.
Antonio looked at her with infatuation, "Emmeline, when we go to America, I can make you major in painting for further study. I know you may be more interested in painting."
