Stay Around You Now And Forever novel (Hunter Jackson) novel Chapter 94

Emily and Terry were heading to the hotel just as Liam had said. But, Joe and Sally immediately arrived at the hotel. Emily and Terry were just one step ahead of them. They never intended to go on a secret date in the first place.

 

“How could the landlord suddenly pull back your room? He didn't even inform earlier. This is too much!” Sally complained as she was packing her stuff.

 

“I heard that this has something to do with the Winston family. Since that incident surrounding Amy had happened, it is natural that the landlord has decided not to rent that place to us anymore in an effort to vanquish suspiciousness.”

 

Joe was not one bit disturbed by this at all. The landlord already returned them their deposit, and they didn't need to pay for one month's worth of rental money too. In the end, they were the ones who benefitted from this. But, about them having no choice but to stay in a hotel...

 

Joe scanned his surroundings before landing his gaze on Emily. He was obviously feeling quite uneasy.

 

“Emily, this hotel room must have been very costly. How much we need to pay to sleep here for one night?”

 

“Around five hundred Yuan.”

 

“Five hundred Yuan!" Joe exclaimed, “Why didn't you choose an affordable hotel? There's a modest hotel near the school, 

and it only costs around two hundred Yuan for one night.”

 

“Terry is hurt now, how can we just simply stay in any hotel which is not up to par? What if he is infected by bacteria?”

 

“I'm fine.” Terry displayed a smile as he replied nonchalantly, “This is just a minor injury.”

 

“How could that be a minor injury? Your bones are on the verge of exposing themselves.” Sally retorted as images of his injury came to her mind. She couldn't help but shudder at the thought of his injury. It was a terrifying injury!

 

If he was slashed with a greater force, could Terry still preserve his arm now? She recoiled at the thought of this!

 

“I haven't expressed my proper gratitude yet.” Emily looked at Terry and she was harboring the same thoughts as Sally. She was still affected by that previous incident.

 

“You don't need to thank me.” Terry hated it when she wanted to thank him like this. He changed the topic immediately, “When you went back last night... Did Hunter make things difficult for you?”

 

When Emily heard that, she immediately lowered her gaze as a helpless glint flashed in her eyes. She forced a smiled while replying with ease, “Actually, I can't even be considered as Hunter's friend at this point. You guys are aware that we're just tied together because of an arranged marriage by our families.”

 

“So, there wouldn't have any difficulties in our relationship at all. He immediately went to sleep after returning home without even so much as acknowledging me.”

 

Terry's lips trembled as though he wanted to say something, but in the end, he remained silent.

 

Hunter was definitely not just a participant in their arranged marriage.

 

Last night, when Hunter arrived at the scene to rescue her, he was obviously relieved when he saw that she was not harmed. 

 

For someone like Hunter who was always composed and relaxed, it would mean that he was obviously very worried about Emily before he could confirm her safety. He wouldn't be looking so relieved if he didn't care about her at all.

 

Hunter... was not really oblivious to her well-being; it's just that this girl didn't discover this yet.

 

“Alright, you should get as much rest as you can here. Joe and I will go look for a new place to rent.” After declaring that, Sally pushed Emily slightly and added, “I think you don't have any classes to attend in the afternoon, right? Emily, after you finish your class, remember to come here to look after Terry.”

 

“Alright.” Emily put up a gesture to signify that she would abide by her suggestion.

 

Sally and Joe promptly made sure they were bringing their wallets before departing to search for a new place to rent.

 

Emily checked the time on her phone and realized that it was already half past eight now.

 

She already missed her first class. By the time she reached her class, she could only attend her second class.

 

“Terry...”

 

“Go ahead to your class; I'm sleepy by the way. I need to doze off a little.” Terry reassured her.
