President's Substitute Wife

Chapter 84: 84 Let’s not divorce

It took me a long time to hear Sean’s voice, “my books and papers are here. I’ll take them back.”

“Oh...”

His things were here.

I was in a bad mood before and then I was busy working so I forgot about it.

I didn’t open the door, “well, President Jessop, wait a minute. I’ll help you pack up.”

“I want to go in.”

I heard Sean.

Actually, I was hesitating. But I thought although we had divorced, he just came to get things.

We had nothing to do with each other after he got them.

I felt a chill when I opened the door.

Sean stood at the door. He was wearing a gray black coat and there were many snowflakes on his shoulders and head.

I was a little surprised. Didn’t he drive straight to the underground garage? Why was he so cold and there were snow on him?

Was he coming from outside?

But I didn’t want to care about him. When I let him in, I turned around and said, “President Jessop, wait a minute. I’ll help you pack up.”

He didn’t have many things. Just a paper bag could hold them.

I took his books and papers off the bookshelf in the living room. I handed him the paper bag and said politely, “President Jessop, everything is here. You see if there is any omission.”

Sean took the bag and didn’t look at it.

He stared at me and gave a wry smile. “It looks like you’re doing well after the divorce.”

“Yes, I had a good time.”

I pretended to be calm.

I was having a bad time. I felt bad, but I couldn’t tell him.

Sean nodded. “Okay.”

I thought his eyes were a little confused but I didn’t think much about it.

I took Sean to the door and said, “goodbye.”

I closed the door.

But when the door closed, I heard a muffled sound in the corridor. I hesitated and opened it.

I saw Sean lying on the ground with his eyes closed.

“Sean!”

I got nervous all of a sudden. I rushed to touch his face with my hand. But I found his skin very hot.

I touched his forehead and neck and found that Sean was having a high fever!

I called his name and opened his eyes. I was sure Sean was really in a coma.

I hesitated for a moment. I didn’t think he could lie here. I dragged him inside but he was too heavy. I tried my best to move him a little.

I could only call security and asked him to drag Sean into my room.

We put him on the bed.

I picked up the phone and wanted someone to take him away.

But looking at the phone, I was lost again.

Who could I ask to take him away?

I didn’t have a phone number for anyone Sean knew except Molly.

The thermometer showed that his temperature was 39.5 degrees Celsius.

I didn’t understand. Why didn’t he go to the hospital and come to my house when he had a fever?

But I didn’t think too much. I couldn’t go against my heart. I was afraid something would happen to him.

I made an emergency call.

Before the doctor came, I wanted to get a basin of water to help him cool down.

But as soon as I was about to leave, he grabbed me. “Don’t go.”

I looked back at Sean who was unconscious. I was in a bit of a quandary.

“Sean, let go. I’ll get you some water. I’ll be right back.”

“No, don’t go...”

Sean didn’t let go of my hand after I explained.

His hands were very hot. He grabbed my hand and it made me feel a little hot. He couldn’t have a fever all the time. If he had a fever in my house and became stupid, Jessop Family and Molly would not let me go.

But when I wanted to break free of his hand, Sean raised his arm and held me in his arms. His thin lips were steaming, “I miss you. Don’t go. Don’t leave me.”

His voice was full of attachment.

My heart was pounding. But I was worried about him and could only pat him on the chest. “I’ll get the water. I’ll be back soon. I will not leave you.”

“Really?” Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

I could understand him, though he had his eyes closed and he didn’t speak clearly.

“Well, really.”

Even though I said that, Sean didn’t let me go. He held me. I heard him say a lot in my ear.

I didn’t catch it this time. But I heard him say, “I love you. I didn’t say it before, but this time I say so don’t leave me.”

I leaned over him to think about who he was talking to.

Was he talking to me?

That was impossible.

When I doubted, I heard Sean say, “don’t divorce. Let’s not divorce. I love you.”

This sentence made my heart thump!

Let’s not divorce.

Was he talking to me?

I suddenly thought Sean was pretending to be sick and lying to me.

I couldn’t believe my ears, let alone believe him easily.

When I thought how to ask him, there was a knock at the door. The doctors were here.

I suddenly backed away and wanted to open the door. I heard him say, “Molly...”

My heart hurt at that moment.

I thought I was ridiculous.

How could he have said that to me?

Of course he said it to Molly!

I hurried to open the door for the doctors and let them take him away. I didn’t care about him after that.

All my previous sorrows piled up.

But right now they were like volcanoes and erupted.

I stood in front of the window, but I couldn’t suppress my sadness. I took out the bottle of red wine I bought that day to please Sean. I sat at the window drinking.

Soon I finished a bottle of wine.

Although it was red wine, I began to feel dizzy because I drank it on an empty stomach.

My cell phone rang. I stood up and took my cell phone from the tea table. I tried to see through the blurred vision to distinguish the content of the message.

“How are you? We haven’t been in touch for a long time. How is your study? Do you have a good job?”

Who was it?

I squinted at the sender again.

It was a number I didn’t save.

But the number was familiar.

Who was it?

Maybe I drank too much. I dialed that number. It took a long time to get through. I heard him say, “Hello.”

“Hello, who’s speaking?”

I began to talk nonsense.

The person on the other side of the phone introduced himself, and I suddenly remembered that he was the one who helped me to go to university!

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry...”

“You’re drunk.”

Before I finished, he said.
