Chapter 434 He Makes Her Sick (2/2)

She seemed to be vomiting her guts out. With a pale face, she looked very weak.

Finally, he had to believe that he sickened her. He could do nothing but stay away from her for fear that she would continue to vomit. He didn't want the vomiting to do any harm to her body, or the baby. If something happened to the baby, she would never forgive him.

”Well, I'll keep far away from you. Just calm down. Anyway, it doesn't matter. It might be a mental illness that can be cured.”

The words seemed aimed at her, but could also have been to assure himself that he could not be hated by her any more after she recovered.

Gasping

pressed for too long these days.

Concern and longing for Jacob was almost driving Emily crazy. As soon as she closed her eyes, precious memories with Jacob stirred in her mind and panic threatened to overwhelm her.

Emily was eager to have Jacob back, and she couldn't bear the long wait, it was torment for her.

She gazed around the river bank, and suddenly noticed a man standing far off.

She thought at first that it was just her wishful thinking, because the man looked just like Jacob.

”Sam! Sam, look! Is that Jacob?” Excited she grabbed Sam's arm tightly, spinning him about, to make him look at the place where the man was standing, ”It is Jacob, isn't it? I won't mistake him!”

Sam suffered the agony of the force which Emily applied to his arm, even though he was a strong man. He squinted in the direction of her pointed finger, but saw no one standing there. He felt sorry for Emily and said, ”Mrs. Gu, are you not just dazzled by the sunlight? I see nobody there.”

Emily slowly released her grip and said, ”No, I clearly saw his face...”

”Madam, you must be too tired. I'll take you back home now,” he comforted her.

”Really? Is it just because I am tired? ” She murmured in some confusion, ”But I did see Jacob. How could it be a mistake?” Her face fell with disappointment, and she seemed on the verge of crying any second now.

Sam tried his best to persuade her to go back home. But when they were ready to leave, Emily saw the man again.

”Sam! I am not mistaken. It is him!”
