You Are The Apple of My Eyes

Chapter 246 Emma

Emma blinked her eyes. She wondered whether the people in the ward were talking about her.

Silence fell in the ward and Emma felt embarrassed again.

With a smile, Emma took the initiative to nod at the people who stood up beside the sofa, which stopped her embarrassment.

Then Emma walked towards Nina and asked with concern, "Nina, you told me that you were in the hospital a few days ago, and I wanted to come to see you, but my tutor didn't allow me to ask for leave. Therefore I can only come here today. Are you feeling better?"

Since Nina helped Emma find out Harrison's affair with another woman, Nina and Emma often chatted with each other on WeChat.

Since Michelle was in Spring City and Nina couldn't get in touch with her, Emma became Nina's friend.

However, no one could replace Michelle in Nina's heart. After all, Nina only wanted to protect Michelle and the one Michelle wanted to protect.

"I'm fine. It's him who is hurt." Nina pointed to John. Emma called him, "Mr. John."

Emma was polite.

Nina looked over Emma's shoulder and gave a glance at James, who immediately understood what Nina meant and brought a chair for Emma.

James appeared to be gentle when he was walking to get the chair.

He wasn't arrogant and domineering as usual.

He looked like a man with an imposing appearance.

"Emma, have a seat." James put the chair next to Emma and said in a bossy tone.

John looked cold and evil when he was domineering, while James looked a little arrogant.

Nina looked at James' face and found that he was handsome and lovable. No wonder there was a rumor around the college that a lot of girls liked him.

If Nina hadn't met John, she would have been attracted by James.

Although James was the one who was always made fun of at home, he was a charming and attractive man outside.

"Emma, have a seat. I'll get you a glass of water." Nina knew that Emma had been hiding from James recently because James was sometimes domineering and powerful when he was chasing women, just like John.

Emma was scared by James.

"Okay, thank you." Hearing this, Emma sat down. She didn't dare to look at James, but looked at John politely. "Mr. John, are you feeling better?"

James had been waiting for Emma to talk to him. However, he didn't expect that she didn't look at him at all. Instead, she cared about John. James immediately felt angry.

John knew that James hadn't succeeded in making Emma become his girlfriend even though James had been chasing her for a month.

John thought James was useless.

"Yes." John nodded his head. Except for Nina, he rarely gave others a smile. He always showed a cold and indifferent face.

He knew that Emma was Michelle's cousin and a friend of his wife.

He was sure that the person who his wife liked must be very nice.

Since James started to pursue Emma, John had heard James talk about Emma many times. Therefore John knew what happened between James, Emma and Harrison.

John also asked someone to investigate Emma. He knew that Emma, a female student of the Communication University, had a good character, but had a bad boyfriend.

However, the boyfriend could be changed.

"I remember you are Michelle's cousin." John spoke again. Seeing Emma nod her head, he continued, "You can also call me Uncle John as Michelle does. You don't have to call me Mr. John."

Emma was stunned. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

She felt it was very lucky for her to meet John, a famous person in LC City. It surprised her that she could call him Uncle John.

However, she didn't dare to do so.

"Uncle John..." James was touched and tried his best to hold back his emotions when he saw that John was helping him.

Accepting James' gratitude, John smiled and thought, 'This guy is smart this time.'

John thought that James should have a smart wife.

"Emma, drink some water." Nina came back with a glass of water and handed it to Emma.

Emma took the water and took a sip to calm down.

With James standing beside her, Emma could smell the unique smell of him.

This smell was the strongest when James kissed Emma without her permission.

When Emma and Harrison dated, they just held hands, without any other physical contact.

Emma had never kissed any man.

When she first met James, he snatched her first kiss. She was so angry that she slapped him.

However, the slap was too light. Everytime James didn't know how to argue with her, he would kiss her.

Emma thought James was a rogue.

Drinking water helped Emma relieve her nervousness and she relaxed a lot. She smiled and said, "Nina, since you and your husband are fine, I'll leave and come to see you another day."

"Another day? When?" What Emma said was just a courtesy, but James took it seriously and asked in detail.

She had been hiding from him recently and he didn't have a chance to meet her. He had a lot to say to her.

He knew that it was difficult for him to meet her again because she would avoid seeing him.

It was a good chance for him to meet Emma if she went to the hospital to visit Nina. Anyway, he had nothing else to do, so he could come to watch them chatting.

As long as he saw Emma, he would be happy.

It was the happiest thing.

It was much more interesting than staying with his friends.

Emma bit her lips and didn't say anything.

Angela couldn't stand it anymore. She wondered why his son was so stupid.

She worried that it was difficult for his son to have a girlfriend, let alone get married and have babies.

Angela thought she should help James.

"Hello, Emma." When Angela came towards Emma, Emma immediately stood up and greeted Angela with a smile, "Hello."

Angela looked at Emma up and down and found that Emma had a good-looking appearance and literary temperament.

Angela had been in the upper class of Imperial City for more than 20 years and had the ability to judge people accurately.

She knew that Emma was a good girl.

Angela was delighted that her son had chosen a nice girl.

"Hello, I'm James' mother. Nice to meet you." Angela took the initiative.

She couldn't miss such a good chance.

"Hello, auntie. My name is Emma. I'm a friend of Nina." Though embarrassed, Emma introduced herself gracefully.

Hearing how Emma introduced herself, Angela knew that James hadn't developed a good relationship with Emma yet.

In order to give James a hand, Angela became more enthusiastic.

"How do you spell your name? E-M-A, Ema, right?"

When Emma was about to answer, James explained for her, "No. E-M-M-A, Emma. The name was originally a short form of Germanic names that began with the element ermen meaning 'whole' or 'universal'. It was introduced to England by Emma of Normandy."

James' words shocked everyone present.

James hated reading the most, but he knew the origin of the word "Emma" and even recited it deftly.

This was not easy for him.

Emma didn't understand why everyone looked surprised as if something unusual had happened.

She didn't think there was anything wrong with her today.

She had to hide her embarrassment with a smile. "That is indeed the origin of my name."

"Look, I am right. You all don't believe me." James didn't know that he was just a man with slight talent and superficial learning in the eyes of his family.

He thought that his family members were surprised by the origin and meaning of Emma's name.

He thought so because he was also surprised at the beginning.

Angela was excited that her son had grown up.

She used to think that her son was stupid and didn't like studying. It turned out it was wrong and that he just needed a good wife to motivate him to make progress.
