Again, Elaine was surprised.
Emmett had expected that. He could even imagine her surprised look. Then, Emmett smiled, with his charming eyes sparkling, "Once I get all my work done, I'll register for marriage with you."
"What?"
It was a greater shock to her.
"Register ... for marriage? I'm only eighteen years old..."
Was there anyone else who registered for marriage at the age of eighteen?
Emmett tapped his finger on the table and said, "Let's get married abroad."
Elaine was so astonished that she was like a deer caught in headlights. After a while, she regained her senses. Hearing Emmett's manly breathing from the phone, she hung up hurriedly.
...
In astonishment, Elaine limply covered her chest with her eyes wide open.
Why did she feel happy about it?
She really changed! Why?
Elaine couldn't help thinking about what Emmett had said.
Let's get married abroad...
Let's get married abroad...
"What's wrong with you? Why do you seem so shocked after the call? Hey, I'm talking to you. Your eyes seem to be going to pop out!"
Hazel came out of the bathroom, tidied up her clothes and kicked Elaine slightly.
Elaine simpered at Hazel.
"Will you get married abroad?"
"What? Are you crazy?"
Hazel raised her voice, and Elaine was surprised to feel the sweetness in her tone.
Then, Hazel became inquisitive and kept asking what Elaine meant by that.
Elaine covered her blushing cheeks, answering Hazel's researching questions happily.
"Emmett's jumping the gun a bit! He tries to make it easy to let you be his wife! I judge him!"
With her eyes shining, Elaine held Hazel's hand and asked in confusion,
"Have I ever been in love with him before? Why can't I remember everything, but I don't hate him at all?"
The corner of Hazel's mouth twitched.
She didn't know what to say.
Hazel really wanted to pat Elaine's head and say, "Honey, if it wasn't for the accident, you might have given birth to a kid for Emmett, not to mention a relationship ... "
She hesitated for a while.
"It's better for you to discover yourself what happened to you two. Anyway, he's been sweet with you."
Then they heard a car honk.
A car was waiting outside.
Hazel quickly ran out. As expected, Officer Bradley came.
Bradley got out of the car and smiled at Hazel.
His eyes were as clear as blue sky. He smiled like an innocent child.
Hazel was pleased by his innocence, "Why were you late? I've been waiting for you so long!"
Hazel seemed to be blaming him, but her lovely face blushed with sweetness.
...
Bradley scratched his head in embarrassment. "I caught two pickpockets on the way. So I sent them to the police station before coming over. Then I was late."
Hazel rolled her eyes, yet with joy. "Who do you think you are? The savior? You don't need to do the job as a policeman after work. Don't be so nosy anymore!"
"OK."
Bradley said and looked at Elaine, "Do you feel better?"
Elaine smiled sweetly, "I'm fine."
Of course, Elaine thought that she was fine.
Hazel winked at Bradley nervously to stop him from asking more questions.
Bradley stuck out his tongue and immediately kept his mouth shut.
Bradley drove the car, and Hazel and Elaine sat in the backseat.
Elaine was in a good mood. She looked out at the scenery through the window. Suddenly, she said,
"Emmett is my boss. But why do I feel we're close?"
"Whoa!"
Bradley coughed in shock.
