When Debra Huo came back, it’s already been 3 a.m.
Laura Su has slept soundly. But a cold body held her suddenly making her awake.
“Don’t be afraid!” There came Debra Huo’s soft and hoarse voice.
He felt her nervous.
Hearing his voice, Laura Su relaxed all of a sudden.
But she didn’t move. She could feel that he held her harder than before.
“Huo...Are you alright?” She asked softly and looked at the clock beside.
It’s three o’clock.
The man didn’t speak. He just held her more harder.
His behaviour answered her.
Laura Su’s heart seemed to have sunk to the rock bottom. She grabbed the man’s hand with a choked voice, “Bro...They are really unable to cure him, are they?”
“Yeah.”
Dozens of seconds had passed, he answered.
Laura Su felt somewhat pity for him.
She couldn’t imagine such a handsome man whose legs are disabled.
Why God will still take his life?
“I have seen the best doctor and used the best medicine...”He paused for a while to control his emotion, “I hope he can live for more days...”
Laura Su bit her lip. She was sad.
This pain can not be described.
“Live for ...more days?” Her voice was trembling, “Aunt has said he can live to the end of the year. Can’t he?”
“His condition is not good...”
Simple words has showed everything.
It seemed that living alive to the end of the year has became a luxurious thing.
“Are you crying?” Debra Huo felt that she was trembling and sobbing. Then he turned her over.
Her big eyes were filled with tears. And she bit her lips hard, trembling badly.
“Don’t bit yourself.It hurts.” Debra Huo stopped her and touched her lips softly.
Laura Su looked at him with a choked voice, “Huo...I lost my father as if my world had destroyed. I can’t imagine how sad auntie will be...”
She cried and said, “Why people will die from illness? He is a good man. Auntie is a good woman. They are all very kind. Why this will happen to them? They didn’t do anything wrong!”
Debra Huo looked at her. At this moment, he felt moved and peaceful.
“Huo...”Tang looked at him with tears in her eyes, “What can we do to reduce his pain?”
Huo held her in his arm without saying a word. He didn’t know what to say at this moment.
He just wanted that guy can live more happily during the rest of his time...
And he will try to do more things for him .
The next morning, everyone got up early.
Debra Huo fell into sleep at four o’clock and he got up after five o’clock.
“I will go to see him!” Linda Yun lost her temper in the morning because Richard Qu didn’t let her to go to the hospital.
She didn’t sleep last night. She was waiting in the sitting room with Jennifer Huo.
After three o’clock, they came back.
He promised to her that she can go to see him in the morning.
But now he said she can’t.
What did her mean?
“Why can’t I go to see him? He is also my son! Why can’t I?” Yun Nin looked at him angrily.
“He will come to back soon, so you don’t have to.” Richard Qu replied to her in a hurry.
“What do you mean? George was ill. Why he will come back soon? What did the doctor really say?” Linda Yun was worried and her voice was a little sharp.
“Richard Qu, how about Duoduo actually?” Jennifer Huo was also confused.
Why they stopped her?
Richard Qu was a little tired, but he still comforted her patiently, “He will come back soon. You don’t have to go there.”
“Mum!” Debra Huo came to them, “Uncle is right. I got the phone call just now. Dad is taking him back home. They are on the road.”
Linda Yun and Jennifer Huo looked at them confusedly.
“Come back? Why not stay in the hospital to get the treatment?” Linda Yun looked at her son and asked him.
Debra Huo was about to answer her. At this moment, there came the sound of car.
Linda Yun and Jennifer Huo ran outside immediately.
Soon,a familiar car pulled outside.
Then,the driver opened the car door.
Michael Huo got out of the car with George in his arms.
Paul Mu opened the wheelchair and Huo let Duoduo sit on it.
Linda Yun came to them and looked at Duoduo who was smiling at her,bursting into tears immediately.
“Mum!”George called her and looked at Jennifer Huo,also calling her mother.
Jennifer Huo turned around ant cried at once.Richard Qu held her immediately.
Linda Yun squatted down in front of him and reached her hand to touch his thin cheek, “It hurts,right?”
Man was smiling.He caught her hand and put her hand to his knee.
“Mum,it’s fine.Really.It doesn’t hurt at all.I am a grown-up,not a child now...”
Linda Yun couldn’t help but cry again.
“Mum,don’t cry.Look at me.I am okay..”He wiped her tears in a hurry.
The scene was touching.
Everyone kept in silence.
He is fine?
But his pale face showed he was not good.
But nobody said it out.
“Yes,yes.My George is fine.”She tried to calm down. “Let’s go home!”Linda Yun pushed the wheelchair.
People made way for him and then they all came into the house.
This day,Laura Su stayed with them happily.
But she still saw the sadness behind their eyes.
Somehow,she was upset,too.
“Brother,this is your sister-in-law.”Debra Huo introduced her to his brother.
George was a little stunned.And then he smiled, “Fine,fine.I’m really glad to see you.”
He looked at Laura Su with an embarrassed expression, “Sorry,I haven’t prepared some gifts for you.Tell me what do you like,I will buy them for you!”
Laura Su nodded her head, “No,no,no...I have everything.I don’t need gifts.”
The man smiled gently, “I will hang out to buy a gift for you .”
Then,he looked at Debra Huo, “Be nice to her.Don’t hurt her.”
Debra Huo nodded, “So,you will attend my wedding,right?”
His words made George surprised.
“Yes,of course!Brother will attend my wedding ,too!”Marie Huo added in a hurry.
“And mine!Brother,you have to wait for many years because I am not in a hurry to get married!”Dennis Huo added in a hurry,too.
George just smiled.
