My Doting Husband novel Chapter 19

Joey was confused, "didn't you forward me a WeChat message this morning?"

"Me?" Emma was surprised.

After a while, she figured out that it must be Sean who had done it.

Thinking about that, there was nothing wrong. Sean was so busy after all, how could he stay here all the time...

Joey seemed that he could conjure. He took a pack of fried chicken wings behind him with a smile, then asked, "are you hungry? I asked the nanny to make the fried chicken wings for you early in the morning."

Emma was indeed hungry, since Sean was not there, she had already forgotten the doctor's words.

She held a crispy chicken wing in hand. Before eating it, she was stopped by a big hand.

Emma raised her head and happened to see a pair of dark and deep eyes.

Sean was in an iron gray shirt and straight black trousers without a tie, and his neckline was slightly open. They were the same clothes from yesterday. He looked a little tired, and obviously he hadn't had time to go back and change them.

Joey was surprised at how Sean appeared there. But Sean directly ignored him and set his eyes on Emma's face. He took the chicken wing from her hand and threw it into the trash can on the side.

"Even if you have nothing left to live for, you shouldn’t choose such a stupid way to suicide," Sean was blue in the face.

Emma swallowed and looked into the trash can. Before she could understand why Sean scolded her, Joey took the initiative. He got up from the chair and stood in front of Sean.

They were of similar height, but Sean seemed more powerful.

"What do you mean? What are you trying to insinuate? What happened to my girl eating chicken wings? What's upsetting you?"

Sean glanced at him coldly, turned around and picked up the jacket on the back of the chair, and walked straight out without looking at him.

Joey turned around and looked at Sean, then said, "fuck, why is he so arrogant?"

Emma was speechless.

It was not long before Sean had left, the nurse came in.

When she saw the packet of chicken wings in front of Emma, she scolded, "Didn't I tell you not to eat or drink anything?!"

"I didn't, I didn't eat..." Emma was a little guilty.

Hearing this, the nurse breathed a sigh of relief and lowered her tone, "you are so young that you should be serious about you health. Pancreatitis is a disease that patients are forbidden to eat or drink. Once you disobey it, your pancreas will secrete a large amount of digestive enzymes, which will worsen your condition. So you must not try, remember?"

Emma nodded, and Joey’s face turned pale...

——————

Apart from lying to Officer Brown that she was going to live with George for a few days, Emma was sitting on the hospital bed all morning, watching Joey eating all of the fried chicken wings.

Joey threw away the paper bag which was containing the chicken wings, and saw Emma's long face, and smiled embarrassingly, "I forgot that you are still hungry, or... do you wanna smell it?"

A pillow was thrown on Joey's face, and the ward was full of his heartless laughter.

Joey went to the bathroom.

From inside came the sound of splashing water.

Emma raised her head and glanced at the window. It was a bit cloudy that day.

She picked up her phone and browsed the weather forecast. The forecast said it wouldn’t snow...

Suddenly she reminded of Nunu, she hurriedly found Sean's number on her contact list.

She dialed his number, and Sean answered the phone call soon.

"Hello?" A deep voice came.

"Where's Nunu?" Emma asked.

Sean on the other end of the phone said, "in my house, no animals are allowed in the hospital."

Emma finally breathed a sigh of relief.
