Purchased A Mr. Right
Chapter 756

After the lunch break, everyone in the office was busy again.

Tina came back with a stack of document copies and sat back into her chair. Still, she was worried about Emily, so she asked, "Emily, are you sure that your foot is okay?"

Emily shook her left foot and said in a relaxed tone, "It's okay, don't worry! This afternoon, I can go with you to deal with the news!"

The sprained injury of her ankle was not serious, plus she was sent to the hospital in time. By the third day, her ankle had gone down, and she did not feel any pain anymore. Though she could not run or do some strenuous exercise, she could walk.

At this moment, the phone rang, and Emily opened the drawer.

As she saw the name displayed on the screen, she froze there-it should be the first call from Simon after the divorce. Since she left the hospital a few days ago, she had never seen him again...

At that time, when she returned home, Selena stared at her with that furious and startled look. Thinking of this, Emily was amused and could not help shaking her head helplessly.

"Hello... Beast?"

From the other end of the line came Simon's deep voice. "I'm downstairs. Come down to see me."

Emily, stunned, looked at the blinds subconsciously. "What's the matter?"

"Come down, and then we'll talk!" Simon dropped this sentence and hung up.

Emily frowned and hesitated for two seconds before telling Tina that she would leave for some time. Then, she walked out of the office with her mobile phone.

As she came out from the rotating door of the lobby on the first floor, she could see the black Cayenne parked at the side of the road from a distance. In a greyish black suit, Simon leaned against the door of the co-pilot seat, with a burning cigarette in his hand. On his handsome face, the sun cast some deep and shallow shadows.

Many times before, he stood like this to pick her up after work.

Sometimes, they went to the supermarket on the way and sometimes drove home directly. On the way, he would hit on her with some amorous words...

Emily took a deep breath and calmed herself down. Slowly, she moved over. When she approached him, she saw him taking a long drag on his cigarette, and his cheeks had sunk in deep.

She walked over and asked with a frown, "Why do you want to see me?"

"Are you free now?" Simon blew out a stream of smoke.

Then, his peach blossom eyes looked up into her face. In the cloud of smoke, they looked dark and deep.

Emily's heart skipped a beat. She asked blankly, "Simon... What's wrong with you?"

The Adam's apple of Simon bobbed up and down, and he said in a low voice, "Grandma's condition has worsened. She suddenly fell into a coma this morning and has been transferred from the sanatorium to the hospital!"

"What?!" Emily cried out in a low voice.

"Now the medical group is studying her case. At present, they can only continue to use chemotherapy to suppress the cancer cells. If it doesn't work, she has to undergo an operation again!" Speaking of this, Simon put out the cigarette in his hand. "If it's convenient for you, will you go to the hospital with me to see her? She was talking about you before she passed out!"

Emily nodded without hesitation. "Okay!"

The black Cayenne drove away from the office building and joined the flow of cars.

Grandma liked Emily a lot. Since she knew Emily and Simon got married, she felt happy whenever Emily was with her. With happiness overflowing from the bottom of her heart, she had a big smile on her face the whole time.

In fact, Emily loved grandma in the same way and treated her as nicely as she did to her grandmother.

Now when Emily learned that grandma fell ill again, her heart was invaded by worry. Grandma was fine after the operation four years ago, but four years later, when she grew older, and her physical condition worsened, it would be risky for her to have an operation...

In the car, Emily sent Tina a message, telling her to ask for a leave for her.

The car got off the overpass and drove into the hospital. As Simon entered the hospital building, he took a final puff at the third cigarette and ground it into the ashtray through the rising white smoke. He looked sad and serious. Emily knew that her grandmother was very important to him!

After coming out of the elevator, Simon slowed down a little. She glanced sideways at him and faintly said, "I haven't told my grandma that we're divorced because I'm afraid that she will be sad. With her weak physical condition, she can't stand any bad news. So, I think we'd better not tell her this!"

"I know!" Emily nodded.

Four years ago, he married her because he wanted his sick grandmother to be happy and accept the operation. He came to ask for her help only because Addy was not with him today...

Before grandma, they acted as if they were a happy couple. Today, Emily knew that she had to do the same thing.

The ward was near. Emily turned her head and said with a soft voice. "I'll keep it a secret from grandma too!"

"Emm." Simon gave her a light smile.

When she arrived at the door of the ward, she hesitated to move forward. At this time, a big palm with clear lines stretched out to her.

Emily just stood there in a daze.

Simon's pretty eyes landed on her face as she said in a low voice, "Emily, later on, please perform as well as you can!"

A trace of bitterness crawled upon Emily's heart, but she managed to force a smile.

When Emily put her hand in his palm, she had a feeling of familiarity. Then, she took his slightly cold hand, like what she did four years ago. Meanwhile, with a smile, she nodded. "Don't worry. I will!" Simon's eyes darkened. Deep in his heart, he liked her sweet smile, even if it was a fake one.

The ward's door was pushed open, and they walked into the ward, hand in hand.

Grandma looked much worse than the last time when they met at the sanatorium. She was in a hospital gown, and on the back of his hand was a needle connected to the transfer tube. Every two seconds, two medicine drops would fall and flow into her body. This sad scene made Emily feel like crying.

Emily could not help choking with sobs, "Grandma!"

"Emily, here, come here!" When grandma saw her, she smiled brightly though her face was a little pale. "Oh, why are you looking so sad? Look at me; I'm in good condition! Don't worry about me. I'm fine!" "Grandma, you will get better!" Emily said seriously.

"Well, I also believe it!" Grandma nodded with a smile. "Emily, whenever I see you, I'll feel much better and won't feel any pain at all! However, when I woke up recently, I only saw Simon. In the past two weeks. you did not visit me in the sanatorium. I thought you've split up with Simon!"

At this time, Simon gently put his warm palm upon her shoulder.

Emily swallowed hard and steadied herself. Slowly, she raised her hand to cover his and said, "No, we're fine..."
