Chapter 294 The Engagement Was Not Counted
When they arrived at Yusuf family’s old house, Clara saw He Shuping sitting on the sofa as soon as he entered.
When He Shuping saw this, she smiled and stood up to greet him. “Clara is here!”
Clara immediately smiled and walked forward, “Auntie, I made some tonic soup at home today and specially sent it to Damon.”
Hearing this, He Shuping’s expression changed. She moved her lips and said, “Damon, he…”
“What’s wrong with him?” Clara asked anxiously.
“He left, not at home.” He Shuping sighed softly.
“What?” “Isn’t he still injured?” Clara asked with wide eyes.
“Sigh, Qingshan asked Secretary Ruan to leave Yusuf family and go to the hospital to recuperate. This was originally for the sake of that secretary. I don’t know how this matter reached Damon’s ears. He thought that we were mean and didn’t like her. When he got angry, he also left.”
As she spoke, she glanced at Clara’s pale face and continued to add, “He probably went to look for that secretary. In short, he didn’t pick up the phone and there was no news from him. I was worried sick!”
Clara’s lips moved, forcefully maintaining her calm on the surface. She gritted her teeth and pulled out a smile, “Damon didn’t pick up my call either. He couldn’t be angry with me, right?”
“How could that be? You are his girlfriend. Why wouldn’t he contact you at this time?” He Shuping pretended to be surprised.
Suddenly, Clara’s face turned even uglier. After a while, her eyes turned red and her voice sounded a little aggrieved. “Auntie, do you think Damon doesn’t want me anymore? He has been very close to that secretary recently. I know the relationship between the two of them before, but since it has been broken, why can’t we be clear about it…”
As she spoke, her tears kept falling like beads with broken strings. When He Shuping saw this, she did not know what to say for a moment.
Suddenly, she glanced at the figure that appeared at the stairs. She raised her voice slightly and said, “Sigh, I think that Damon is obsessed with that secretary. You have known him for so long. He definitely won’t abandon you for that woman!”
“Damon said that he was going to be engaged to me, and now he is entangled with another woman. I feel very uncomfortable…”
At this moment, a cold voice sounded, “Who are you entangled with?”
Clara’s body tightened. When he looked up, he saw the serious Yu Qingshan. He stood at the top of the stairs, holding a newspaper in his hand. His face was a little pale.
“Uncle, I called Damon, but he didn’t answer. He is now very close to Secretary Ruan. I’m afraid our engagement will not be valid…” Clara sniffed.
“Who said it was not valid?” “With me here, does he dare to deny it?” Yu Qingshan threatened.
“You are a girl I watched as I grew up. The situation at home is clear. In addition, you and Damon are in a good relationship. Since he has agreed to you, he must do what he says! I also can’t let other women who are unclear enter our Yusuf family’s door!” Yu Qingshan said.
When he said this, Clara was suddenly overjoyed, but he still wiped his tears on the surface. “Uncle, with your words, I am at ease.”
Yu Qingshan nodded slightly. “Alright, Shuping, you persuade Clara. It is getting late. Let someone send her back later. As for that unfilial son, I will personally take someone to find him tomorrow morning!”
When He Shuping heard this, she immediately nodded and agreed. She pulled Clara to sit down on the sofa and let her drink a cup of hot tea. Only then did she ease up a little.
“Auntie, it’s getting late. I should go back.” Clara glanced at the time.
He Shuping got up to send her to the door and waved at her. “Send me a message when you get home. I can rest assured.”
Clara nodded and smiled at her before getting into the car.
The car turned around and drove out of the old house. Clara suddenly threw the bag in her hand to the back seat. She was so angry that her chest heaved up and down. “That bitch! She really has some tricks up her sleeve!”
She had never made it clear to her all this time. She did not expect that she would use a trick to seduce Damon away with his soul! How could she not be angry!
Seeing this, Huo Chuan looked calm and said softly, “Miss, calm down.”
“Send me home. We will immediately investigate Damon’s whereabouts!”
There were some ripples in Huo Chuan’s eyes. He nodded and did not say anything else.
On the way back, the weather had become a little bad. The dark clouds were pressing down and the wind was whistling.
When they were about to reach the Ye Family, Huo Chuan reminded her softly, “Miss, there is a storm tonight. Remember to close the window.”
Clara was so angry that she closed her eyes and leaned against the seat of the car, snorting weakly.
After sending her back to the Ye family, Huo Chuan did not stop and drove away.
The distant horizon rumbled, signaling the arrival of a storm.
Even so, Huo Chuan did not hesitate. As long as it was ordered by the young lady, he had no complaints.
Sure enough, in less than an hour, heavy rain began to pour outside, and the sound of thunder sounded. It was a bit cautious.
On the hospital bed, Damon looked at the laptop in front of him with a serious expression.
Although he was injured, the company’s urgent work did not drop by half. After Ben returned from Yi City, he directly arranged for him to work in the company. There would not be any problems with his long-range work.
The negative comments on the Internet were not good for Yusuf Group. After boiling for two days, the trend slowly slowed down. In addition to the means of Yusuf Group’s public relations team, the situation was slowly improving.
However, the stocks that fell were not so easy to rise. There were several projects that were called to stop one after another, which was also a very tricky problem.
Damon raised his hand and pressed the space between his eyebrows. He shifted his gaze away from the screen and looked at the lightning and thunder outside. He unconsciously frowned.
At this time, Adele should have already fallen asleep, right?
He still remembered that when Adele lived in the villa, she was very afraid of thunder and rain like this.
One time, in the middle of a thunderstorm, she unconsciously took the initiative to sneak into his arms, like a shivering little hedgehog.
Now, there was no one else beside her, and there was no one to rely on.
There was a ripple in her heart. Damon took a deep breath, hesitated for a moment, and slowly got up and got out of bed.
It was unknown whether it was because the hospital’s soundproofing was not good, but every time there was a clap of thunder, it would resound through the entire room. The lightning struck the cold walls, and it was indeed a bit scary.
Damon walked out of the ward and walked directly to the next ward. He gently pushed the door open.
The room was dark, and other than the thunder outside, there were no other sounds. Damon slowly walked over, and along with a flash of lightning, he vaguely saw the person curled up on the bed.
Adele was half sitting, leaning against the headboard of the bed. The quilt covered her body and propped up a small triangle that seemed to be trembling slightly.
Damon’s heart tightened. He walked forward, raised his hand, and pressed the switch on the bedside. With a “pa” sound, the room lit up.
The person hiding in the quilt stopped moving. A few seconds later, he lifted a corner, revealing Adele’s slightly pale face.
“You… Why are you here?”
“Are you afraid?” “I will accompany you,” Damon said in a deep voice.
As he spoke, he sat down on the side of the bed, stretched out his long arms, and wrapped them around Adele’s shoulders.
“No… no need, I’m not afraid, I just have insomnia.” Adele was shocked, and her body stiffened.
Her face was flustered, and she spoke incoherently.
Damon chuckled. Without a word, he stretched out his hand and straightened her curled legs. He covered her with the quilt, and his voice was a little gentler. “I’ll sleep with you today.”NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
