The doctor came in and turned to Emelia after a quick examination, "Perhaps he is a little too excited when he met you. He needs some rest."
"Okay," Emelia said, and the doctor left.
Emelia looked at Julian on the bed and said, "Have some rest."
Julian grabbed her hand and said, "Not until you sleep by my side."
Emelia looked helplessly at his hand.
He had been holding up her hands or hugging her since she stepped into the ward.
"How old are you? Three?” Emelia refused, "I still have some things to deal with."
It was all kind of mixed up in Emelia's mind, and she needed some space now.
"Are you still thinking about the divorce?" Julian tightened his grip on her soft hand and warned, "Anyway, we're not divorced. You're my wife! So, don't you ever try to divorce me again?"
Emelia couldn't deal with his stubbornness and said, "Julian, even if you don't trust them, can the seal on the divorce paper deceive you?"
Julian snorted. "Why not? Money talks. You guys could bribe the agent to get me the divorce paper."
Emelia felt that they were not on the same paper and couldn't convince him.
At her wit's end, she said, "You should have some rest."
She compromised to sit on the chair by the bed, holding Julian's hand and watching him fall asleep.
Emelia could feel his warmth through his big palm, and Julian looked nervous and insecure. Where was the arrogant CEO? Where was the heartless husband?
If we could turn the clock back, what would happen if he used to be this passionate about their marriage?
However, Emelia should have explained his health issue to him at first to scare him off.
He would be likely to care about this three years ago.
After Julian fell asleep, Emelia pulled out her hand and left the ward.
She first went to Arthur's office. When she entered, Nina was chatting with Arthur.
Nina sat on the sofa and teased Arthur, "Doctor Hudgens, are you seeing someone? I think you're too old to start a family. I have some brilliant friends. Do you want me to introduce you?"
"I think I'll just pass. Thank you." Arthur heard the mocking in Nina's words, and Jean was close to Nina and Emelia.
Grandpa Hughes echoed, "I think that's a great idea."
Arthur respected Grandpa Hughes, so he could only glare at Nina, "Miss Sanchez, please mind your own business."
Emelia went in and interrupted their conversation.
When Grandpa Hughes saw Emelia, he hurriedly asked, "How is Julian?"
"He just fell asleep," Emelia replied.
