In Love, Never Say Never

Elated, Summer clapped her hands and snuggled up in Emery’s arms. ”Thank you, Aunt Emery! I love lollipops!”

Emery’s smile deepened when she saw Summer so happy. Seeing that, I asked her sarcastically, “I don’t see you being that patient with Xavier. Is Summer your child instead?”

“How is that the same?” Emery walked over with Summer in her arms. “Summer is a girl, and girls are meant to be pampered. Since Xavier is a boy, he needs to toughen up. Otherwise, he will grow up to be a Mommy’s boy. If that’s the case, I’ll disown him.”

I shook my head and sighed. There was no way to win a verbal argument with Emery.

Emery then continued playing with Summer, and when she saw that I was ready, she prepared to bring Summer out with her. “Alright, let’s get going. We can’t afford to be late again. Lots of doctors these days are really arrogant, and it doesn’t matter who our families are.”

I thought of Professor Zidd’s good temperament and could not help but retort, “Not every doctor is like that. For example, Professor Zidd is a great man.”

Then, I took Summer from her arms and called out to the kitchen, “Mrs. Eriksen, please come out here for a while.”

In no time, she came out.

“Mrs. Eriksen, we will follow the usual schedule this morning. You will watch Summer and let the other servants handle your chores.”

“Yes, Mrs. Fuller.”

Emery was confused, “Why aren’t you bringing Summer? I can watch her.”

Summer stood between us as she spoke, looking up at us quietly with her large, bright eyes.

Sometimes, she was very much like me. The moment she understood what was going on, she would acquiesce to the circumstances.

Last night as I tucked her into bed, I told her that Mommy would be busy in the following mornings, so she would have to stay at home with Mrs. Eriksen in the meantime.

She did not understand why I had to leave her behind again, thinking that I was going to abandon her like the time I left her with Cameron and Zachary. After a crying fit, she calmed down when I read her a few fairytales. Finally, she agreed as I patiently explained everything again.

Sighing, I asked Mrs. Eriksen to bring Summer to the backyard. After they left the room, I finally replied to Emery’s question, “Summer had just completed the bone marrow operation last year, and she had a kidney transplant too. She is recovering well, so I don’t want her to go to the hospital yet. I don’t want anything bad to happen to her again.”

Emery nodded in understanding and did not say anything else.

We walked out of the house after picking up our bags. At this moment, Ashton walked in through the entrance. Looking worn out with visible stubble on his chin, he seemed as though he had just rushed here from the office.

Emery teased him, “Hey, isn’t this Mr. Fu? Did you just come back from a mining trip or something?”

I patted her shoulder to stop her from talking before telling Ashton, “You’ve worked for a whole night. Emery can go with me today. Just go upstairs and take a nap.”

Ashton looked at me before turning his gaze to Emery, saying adamantly, “Wait for me in the car for five minutes. I’ll just do a quick shave.”

Having said that, he headed to the bathroom immediately. I could faintly hear him telling the maid to get his electric shaver for him.

He still preferred to use the shaver I chose for him.

We waited around for a while before Emery dragged me into Ashton’s car.

After five minutes, Ashton sat in the driver’s seat punctually and drove toward the hospital.

In love, never say never chapter 1112

I observed Ashton quietly through the rearview mirror. After shaving, his charming, good looks were restored with no sign of having gone through an all-nighter at all.

Being the extrovert she was, Emery started talking not long after the car sped off, “I know it is not good to compare, but look at you, Mr. Fuller. You are so busy, and yet, you still make time to bring Scar to the hospital, unlike Hunter. When we finally get a long-awaited holiday, he spends it on some random academic seminar. Tsk tsk…”

I just sat there, feeling awkward. While it was perfectly acceptable to complain to girlfriends, it was quite embarrassing for a wife to complain about her husband in front of another man. Emery seemed to be losing her filters after having her child. At that thought, I reminded myself to talk to her about it later on.

Ashton focused on driving and did not respond right away. I thought he didn’t hear it and was about to heave a sigh of relief when I heard his low voice pipe up.
