Sweet Sweet Love novel Chapter 28

In the Lin Villa

Tick, tick, tick...

The clock hanging on the wall rang regularly. Yolande raised her head and looked at the clock on the wall. The clock turned to twelve o'clock a.m.. Austin hadn't come back yet.

"Mona, you can go to sleep. I will wait for him here." Said Yolande.

Since she couldn't fall asleep, she had to sit down and wait for Austin to come back. She had been worrying about him since his company was in trouble. And he came back later than usual.

As Mrs. Lin said so, Mona had to get up and go to her room to sleep, leaving Yolande alone in the living room to wait for Austin.

The night was very quiet. The sound of the clock echoed in the air. The light grey curtains quivered slightly, and a small wind came from outside. The subtle coldness of the wind blew over Yolande's neck. She stood up and walked to the window. The moon was very round and the sparkling stars were blinking faintly, as if they were winking at Yolande. She looked at the sky blankly for a while. Then she closed the curtain and sat back on the sofa.

When Yolande was in a daze, the door of the living room opened. Austin walked in and saw the woman on the sofa wearing a pink braces skirt with smooth hair scattered.

"It's so late. Why doesn't she sleep? "

When he changed his shoes, Yolande had already got up and ran to him.

"So late? Something happened in your company. Are you all right? I'm worried about you. " The woman said anxiously.

Austin changed his shoes and pulled Yolande to sit down.

"You were so worried about me that you couldn't sleep, right?"

"I'm serious. Can you stop making fun of me?" She said angrily.

Austin wasn't angered at all. He picked up the glass, drank half a glass of water and put it down.

"We should let the fish take the bait first when we are fishing. Although the company has some losses, there will be no big problem." Said Austin. Yolande was with a worried look on her face, as she didn't fully understand what he meant.

He came closer to her and said, "when the fish is full, he will fall into the fish hook and can't run away." Austin said confidently.

"So, both your company and you will be fine?" Asked Yolande.

"Nothing will happen. You can rest assured." Said Austin.

She didn't quite understand what he meant, but she felt relieved to see his confidence. He was Austin. When it came to talent and ability, he was far more talented than Aron. She should trust him.

It was at this time that Yolande noticed that Austin didn't look well and was very tired. She felt a kind of anger that she couldn't tell. "You come back so late every day. Have you taken the medicine on time? You always don't sleep well. Go to bed early. Do you need me to push you to the bed? "

Although she didn't know what was wrong with Austin, she had heard from Warren that he had to take medicine on time every day.

Austin was surprised to see the change of women's emotions. She was weak and pitiful a second ago, but now she became strong and fierce.

"Say something to me..."Seeing him speechless, she shouted.

"I...I am going to sleep now. " After saying that, he rushed to his bedroom and closed the door. Leaning on the door, Yolande listened quietly. It seemed that nothing was heard inside. Perhaps he was sleeping. Then she left with relief.

As time went by, Austin became weaker and weaker. Ignoring Yolande's dissuasion, he came back very late every day. She was worried about her health. She wouldn't be relieved if he didn't come back, and she didn't dare to sleep before he came back.
