Chapter 714: A New Life

After the couple left, Carter approached her to ask, “Do you really intend to go there? You can stay at home if you don’t want to.”
“Why? Are you unwilling to have my company?”
“Of course not!” He shook his head wildly, completely not like a grim-faced knight, “I want to be with you all the time.”
Even in those tragedies of love and death where actors and actresses expressed love to each other, their lines would not be more exaggerating than that. She had never expected to meet such a dramatic person in real life. She glanced at him and asked, “Oh, who do you want to stay with, His Majesty or me?”
“Uh… Well,” Carter did not know how to respond. Probably he had never considered how to choose between responsibility and love.
May was amused and gently patted his cheek. “OK, it seems that I’m as important as the king.”
The Chief Knight relieved and hugged his wife with his arms. His hands, in the meantime, started to move down.
“Stop! It’s still during the daytime,” she tried to stop him when she suddenly felt like throwing up, “Ugh…”
Carter immediately stopped and asked with concern, “What happened? Do you feel uncomfortable?”
May shook her head, pushed the knight away and took a deep breath. Although she knew she was not sick, she still felt nauseous as if her stomach were turning. She walked to the bathroom and retched, but nothing came out except for some saliva.
“I’ll go to call Miss Lily.” Seeing this, Carter became more worried. He put on his jacket and was ready to leave.
“Wait… Wait,” May stopped him. “I didn’t catch a cold.”
“But you’re so ill… His Majesty’s textbook mentions that the early symptoms of a cold are vomiting and diarrhea. Miss Lily’s ability can cure the disease quickly. It’ll become more serious if we don’t receive treatment now.”
“Maybe I’m not sick…”
“Not sick?” Carter frowned. “Why do you vomit?”
“This fool doesn’t have any common sense,” May thought, her cheeks flushed. She heard from people that when a woman was…, she might have similar reactions. But she had no experience of it. If she was wrong, she was afraid that she might be mocked. She was delighted to see her husband behave in a funny way, but she could not make mistakes on such an important issue, otherwise she would be teased by him for the rest of her life.
“In the Witch Union… I remember there‘s a green-haired girl who can see through things?”
“Do you mean Miss Sylvie?” Carter nodded. “She does see hidden things that ordinary people can’t see… But she can’t treat illness.”
“Can you ask her to come?” May slowly returned to the bedside. Though she was just guessing, she still sat down slowly as if she were scared to disturb the little life in her. “Maybe Miss Sylvie knows the reason.”
“You mean…” Carter also realized it at this moment. He opened his mouth with surprise and his eyes lightened up, and then he firmly clenched his fist and said, “I’ll go to find Lady Wendy. If she’s in the Inner City, there should be no problem. ”
…
After the door was closed, May gently breathed out. This feeling was really wonderful as if the meaning of life had become different just in an hour. The possible new life warmed her whole body up. She closed her eyes, and could not help recalling the look of Jasmine when she had handed her the salted fish.
“This is probably… the taste of hope.”
