Emily did not refuse the invitation because there were indeed no unoccupied taxis.
"Thank you..." She nodded and shook off his big hand as she moved forward.
Her ceremonious manner suddenly made Simon freeze.
But Emily ignored him. She opened the back door, bent over, and got in the car.
Simon slowly clenched his hands up in the air. He had a great compulsion to pull her out, carry her to the front passenger seat, and firmly tied her there with the safety belt. But when his hand touched her emaciated body, he resisted the impulse.
He had sent her a lot of tonics. Besides, he made different dishes and various kinds of soup every day for her, but she still seemed to have gained no weight. In fact, she appeared much thinner than before.
After closing the door for her, Simon sat in the driver's seat and started the black Cayenne.
At this time, the sunlight that went through the car windows was not so strong now. The light rings formed on the window were not dazzling. Emily tilted her head and saw buildings on both sides passing by at a constant speed. She remained silent as if she was absorbed in the scenery outside.
Simon, who was holding the steering wheel in front of the car, was looking at her.
It had been many days since he last saw her...
Since she was discharged from the hospital, she stayed in the hospital dormitory and barely came out. Because Simon knew that she did not want to see him, he did not dare to go upstairs rashly. Every time, he asked Anthea to bring the things he prepared to her.
Most of the time, he could only stay downstairs. Occasionally, he could see her appear at the window. There were brief moments when they looked at each other. However, as she saw him, she would turn away from the window...
Even though she did not sit next to him, Simon felt satisfied upon knowing the fact that she was not far away from him.
When he came down from the overhead bridge, he stopped at a red traffic light.
After Simon stalled the car, he looked back and said in a low voice, "Sean was arrested by the Public Security Bureau. Then, he has been handed over to the procuratorial organization and will be prosecuted soon. Merely for the crime of abduction, he will get imprisonment of not less than 10 years or life imprisonment, let alone he has caused more injuries!"
"You fell into the river and the incident caused you to miscarry. Even if he did not mean to do all of this... Emily, don't worry. I will never let him go! Even if he will be sentenced to life imprisonment, it is far from enough to make up for his wrongdoings!" In the end, Simon said through clenched teeth.
Emily could hear the resentment in his voice.
When Emily thought of the scene of falling into the river, she still felt it horrifying and could still recall the ice-cold feeling. The worse thing was that after waking up, she learned that her baby was gone. Also, she hated Sean as much as Simon did. It was just that the damage was done. Even killing Sean would not bring her baby back.
Emily replied in a low voice, "Hmm..."
Emily listened to his words coolly. Simon knew that she was upset and did not want to mention that tragedy at all, so he stopped talking about this topic.
He glanced at her and asked casually, "What are you holding in your hand?"
Hearing this, Emily looked at the document in her hand and looked up at him. "A transfer order to Country S issued by the TV station for me."
Emily told him the truth as directly as she replied to Tina back then. Sooner or later, he would find it out. Thus, she had not intended to hide anything from him and simply told him everything.

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
