Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 124

Chapter 124 Moon 

Don’t you believe in traditional medicine? Samuel raised his eyebrows

Traditional medicine has been passed down for thousands of years.” 

I do,Emelie replied. I believe in the profundity of traditional medicine. That’s why I think Mr. Swanson couldn’t have easily mastered this ability.” 

otherwise, traditional medicine would be too easy

To discem her physical condition by reading her pulse, one would have to be a medical genius 

It would be impossible without decades of dedicated study

Samuel was a lecturer and could not have devoted himself fully to this

Samuel smiled and admitted readily, yes, I cannot read pulses at all 

Emelie whispered, You lied.” 

Samuel looked at her. I lied because I believe you won’t.” 

Enelle frowned involuntarily

Samuel, someone she had known for less than a month, believed and helped her. What about William

He even thought she would lie about having a miscantage

Emelie struggled to swallow, talding the beer from Samuel’s hand. Samuel tried to snatch it back

Emelie avoided him. I want to drink now, Mr. Swanson, drink with me.” 

Samuel disapproved

But Emelie needed an outlet to vent her frustrations over these past few days

Fatigued, her gaze was unfocused, adding a touch of charm as she looked at him 

Aren’t you sort of a doctor, Mr. Swanson? If anything happens, you can save the day.” 

What kind of joke was this? Samuel had no choice. Three bottles, at most.” 

They drank on the small balcony

Emelie and Mona chose to rent this place primarily because of its great view of the balcony

They each had a chair with a sixpack of beers on the floor

Samuel opened one but only took a few sips

Emelie drank slowly but steadily, one bottle after another in silence, drowning herselt

When she reached the fourth bottle, Samuel frowned. That’s enough.” 

But Emelie pointed at a building outside and said, When we first moved in, that building wasn’t there

From this balcony, we could see the moon every night. After it went up, the moon got blocked.” 

Samuel looked at her. But I can see the moon” 

Emelie responded with a puzzled hum

Samuel shifted closer. If you want to see the moon, look into my eyes.” 

Emelie looked at him, slightly amused. Are you suggesting I see myself reflected in your eyes

The moon, hidden within

Samuel laughed. No, look at the lights reflected in my lenses, cound like the moon.” 

Emelle leaned closer to see. Indeed, the balcony’s white lights were reflected in his lenses

Round spots of light, just like the moon

Emelle scared for a long time
