Chapter 1811
"Hey, who is it?"
Calvin was dissatisfied. He turned around and saw that Emberly was standing behind him. Seeing this, he immediately gave in.
"Mom, I'll become stupid if you keep hitting me."
"Hah! That's better, so you won't constantly stand up for outsiders."
Emberly was rendered speechless by her youngest son's action. She didn't even know how Calvin was bribed by Zion.
However, Calvin smiled and said, "Mom, Zion didn't bribe me. Actually, I can see the feelings Evangeline has for him. Besides, he's also nice to her, isn't he?"
"He made your sister cry, and you're saying that he treats her well?"
Emberly rolled her eyes at him.
Calvin quickly said, "He only did that to let her vent out her anxiety, and you know it. If you just don't approve of Zion, then I have nothing to say. But I think she won't be happy without him, and we all want her to be happy, don't we?"
Emberly suddenly didn't know what to say.
After a long pause, she said, "No matter what happens, you have to focus on your sister's situation, understand?"
"Got it."
"Have a rest."
Emberly stood up and walked out.
Meanwhile, Evangeline ran to the door of Zion's room with a worried look on her face, but she was too scared to go in.
She twisted the hem of her clothes and was so nervous that she didn't know what to do. However, she suddenly pushed open the door and hurried over when she heard Zion's cough coming from inside.
"Are you alright?"
Zion wasn't surprised by her sudden appearance. He shook his head, but couldn't stop his throat from itching and coughing violently.
Evangeline quickly ran over to pour him a glass of water. At the same time, she gently patted his back, trying to calm him down. Just then, she remembered Zion's injury.
She paid extra attention to Zion, so she noticed the vague scent of alcohol coming from him.
Evangeline couldn't help but think of what had happened before. She was suddenly having mixed feelings. Then, she said softly, "Can I see the wound on your back?"
"It's no big deal. You don't have to look at it. It will be all right in a few days."
Zion held her hand and said softly, but he still couldn't help coughing.
Evangeline's eyes were a little teary. She persuaded Zion to drink some water, and he did as he was told.
For a moment, both of them were silent.
"Are you feeling better now?"
Zion broke the silence first.
Evangeline nodded, but she still stared at Zion's back.
She knew what kind of person Eugene was and how much he cared about her. So, she was extremely worried when she learned that Zion went to see her father alone. But why didn't she pay attention to Zion's injury first?
She felt wronged and sad. However, Zion was the most important person in her heart, right?
What about gratitude and love? They were nothing in front of Zion.
However, she was still struggling with this question and had forgotten about Zion's injuries. How could she just let it go like this?
Seeing Evangeline's teary eyes and the gaze that had been staring at his back, Zion finally sighed and said, "Are you blaming yourself?"
"Yes."
She didn't refute him. Instead, her voice was choked with sobs.
Zion took her hand and sat her on his thigh. He stroked her long hair and said in a low voice, "How are you feeling now? When I learned that you were going to donate a kidney, I felt the same as you. So isn't it pointless to dwell on gratitude and love when it comes to our relationship?"
"Yeap, it's pointless”
Then, she hugged Zion's neck. Seeing the dark circles under his eyes and thinking of Calvin's words, she couldn't help saying, "Are we still going to break up?"
"That depends on you."
Zion's lips curled up slightly.
At this time, Evangeline was like a child, so he pitied her.
Although Zion gave the final decision to her, he put his hand on her waist and held her tightly. He didn't want to let her go at all right now.
Evangeline didn't notice this, and she said gloomily. "You know, I have always been uneasy and apprehensive when it comes to you. After all, I don't know when you will like me or care about me. I'm aware that I'm nothing like your ideal type. But I was really happy when I found out that you wanted to start a relationship with me. However, I couldn't help but worry about whether you accepted me because of the kidney. Therefore, this has been troubling me all day because I kept overthinking it. I know you are good to me, and I am happy, but I'm still wondering whether you're torturing yourself this way because you're grateful to me."
"I'm not torturing myself by doing these things to you."
Zion grabbed her hand and placed it on his chest. Then, he whispered, "Can you hear it? My heart is pounding just for you." NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Evangeline looked straight at him. She couldn't believe this, but she was still a little confused.
Seeing her like this, Zion smiled and said, "I admit that I never thought about our relationship carefully before learning that you were going to donate your kidney to me. I even thought that I didn’t love you, but I would like to share something that Wisdom said to me." "What is it?" Evangeline had completely lost her ability to think.
Zion muttered slowly, "He said that I was someone who would never torture myself for an unimportant person. I can be cynical and ruthless, but I won't spoil someone I don't care about. Evangeline, I don't really know the exact moment I fell in love with you. Maybe it was when you
donated your kidney, or maybe earlier. After all, I got used to you chasing me after me. However, I'll feel uneasy if you ever disappear one day. I will be worried about you, and I'll wonder whether you're sick or not. Or maybe have you fallen in love with someone else? Will you treat him like you treated me? I have a lot of things to think about, and I'm definitely not as calm as I look.
Evangeline was completely stunned.
Zion would feel uneasy too?
He was worried that she would fall in love with someone else?
To Evangeline, this sounded impossible!
It seemed that the person who was standing in front of her was no longer her Prince Charming, but an ordinary person with genuine emotions.
She suddenly pinched herself hard, and then cried out in pain. Upon seeing this, Zion was dumbfounded.
"Are you stupid?"
"Indeed, falling in love with you is the stupidest thing I have ever done. I'm done chasing after guys. You don't have to worry about me falling in love with someone else because it's too hard for me. It's tiring enough to pursue after you. How can I have the energy and time for someone else? I have always been a faithful woman, I... oh..."
Before Evangeline could finish her words, Zion grabbed the back of her head and kissed her.
