Chapter 943 Emily Was Alone With Seamus (1/2)

”Are you from Jingshi City?”

Emily asked, interrupting Seamus's trip down the memory lane, mainly because she was getting more and more confused.

”Kind of...”

Seamus's response was shrouded in ambiguity, failing to address Emily's confusion. His foster parents lived in a small village near Jingshi City, which was why he felt a special connection to this city.

Suddenly, Seamus stood up and looked out of the window. Judging by his eyes, Emily was sure that he was lost in thought, but she couldn't tell what he was thinking about.

'Perhaps he is thinking about someone he loved. Or is he just feeling sorry for something?' she wondered.

”I have to go now. Would you like to leave with me?”

Seamus asked her again in his deep and captivating voice.

'And go where?' Emily said to herself.

She stared into space for a short while and then asked Seamus happily, ”Are you heading toward Jingshi City?”

”No!”

Seamus answered subconsciously, his deep eyes twitching every now and then.

In fact, he had just gotten here. When he had arrived, he had seen Emily lying unconscious on the ground. Nursing her back to health had taken him some time. Today was the anniversary of his adoptive parents' death, so he had to go to the village anyway.

Emily's loss of patience was evident by the look of frustration in her eyes. Soon, however, she concealed her emotions and said, ”Thank you for taking care of me. And thank you for saving my life. Since you clearly have something else to attend to, I should be getting out of your hair now.”

Although Emily wanted to express her sincerest gratitude to Seamus for saving her life, she was in no position to repay him at the moment. However, since she also had some important matters she needed to get back to, Emily would have to repay the debt at another time in the future.
