My Doting Husband novel Chapter 49

Looking at Emma standing at the door and changing shoes, Officer Brown turned around and asked, "What are you going to do again?"

Emma lied, "I left my things at Joey's home. I have to go get them back!"

Officer Brown got up from the sofa, "Let Maggie get them for you. It's so cold outside. Do you have to get them now?"

Emma didn't answer her grandpa's words, but just pushed the door open.

...

The Brown’s House was so big. Emma knew that it would take a while for Sean to get to the gate.

She took a short cut, bypassed the small golf course, and ran for the back door.

The Brown’s House was a manor-style villa with a large floor area. It was in the shape of an oblique triangle. As long as Emma went out through the back door, there was a small fork road that could lead to the main road in front. It was a straight line, so it didn’t have to take a while.

Emma ran all the way. Her mind was in a mess. She also didn’t know why she wanted to see him.

Finally, when she dashed out of the intersection, a black Bentley was driving over from her side.

When Sean saw Emma rushing out of the small road suddenly, he stepped on the brake.

There were very few people coming and going on this road. There was only this villa nearby, so there were few vehicles.

Sean sat in the car without moving, looking at Emma standing in front of the car through the windshield.

Emma's face was a little pale by the wind. She was biting her lips stubbornly, and staring straightly at the person in the car.

The fallen leaves on the side of the road were swept up by the wind and swept across Emma's feet, spinning and galloping towards the other side of the road. Emma's sleeves were very long. Her little hands were in them, revealing only her fingertips. Her hair was tied loosely. A few strands of hair fell down and stuck on her face. She didn't stretch her hand to brush them off her face, but just stood stubbornly in front of the car with her small face raised, her eyes firm.

Sean pushed the car door, walked over and stopped in front of Emma.

Emma was 1.65 meters tall. If she wanted to meet his eyes, she had to hold her head up. Sean lowered his head to see the looks in her eyes, "Don’t you know it is very dangerous?"

Sean’s words made Emma feel angry.

Pulling the hair out of her face angrily, Emma glared at him, "Why did you come to my home?"

The bad tone of this sentence made Sean frowned.

After a while, he said, "I have something to talk about with your grandpa, which has nothing to do with you."

After speaking, Sean turned and walked towards his car.

Emma didn’t like to cry. But at this moment, some tears welled up into her eyes, "You know that Jessie is my father’s wife, but you still pester with her. My dad is stupid, but I didn't expect you were also such a person!"

Hearing Emma's words, Sean stopped. He slowly turned around to look at her, "Who said I pester with her?"

Sean's tone was a bit bad. His face sank. Emma actually felt a little timid.

Forcing herself to calm down, she took out the phone and walked to Sean, "See it by yourself!"

Sean stared at Emma for a while, then looked down at the phone screen.

After a while, his face eased. His eyes were placed on Emma's face which made her a little at a loss.

"Go home. It's cold outside..."

Sean's concerned words made Emma stunned.

She really didn't wear much. The coat she wore was very thin, and the inside was just a home hoodie. She couldn't help shivering when she stood in front of Sean.

But even so, Emma still didn't give up. She was very stubborn. She still stared at Sean and didn't move. It seemed that if Sean didn’t make it clear today, she wouldn't let him go.

In the end, Sean sighed, took off his coat and put it on her.

Suddenly, Emma was wrapped in Sean's coat, which was full of his smell. She felt a little flustered.

"You can’t take entertainment news seriously. If someone takes a picture that I stand with you today, will the news tomorrow say that I am in love with you?"

Emma was startled when she heard this. In fact, from the bottom of her heart, she didn't believe that Sean would really be with Jessie. With his status, he could find a super nice woman. Why did he bother to find a married woman?

Besides, even if he really had something with Jessie, he wouldn’t let himself be photographed by the paparazzi. Even if Jessie was shameless, the Charles family wouldn't ruin their reputation. Sean's father was a big shot in L City. How could he let his son hook up with married women?

But even so, Emma was still worried. She had to listen to these words from Sean's mouth to be able to feel at ease, as if no matter what the outcome was, she only believed what he said.

As long as he said no, it was no!

Seeing Emma's face relaxed a little, Sean tightened the coat wrapped around her, "Go home..."

Sean's cool fingertips inadvertently rubbed her jaw. A numb sensation quickly flowed through her body. She even had small goose bumps.

Emma's eyes fixed on Sean's injured right hand.

Sean turned to the car door. Emma couldn't help but step forward, "Sean, you...really don't like Jessie?"

This was the first time Emma called him by his name. Sean stopped. He didn't look back. A strange feeling passed through his heart. This feeling made him somewhat unexpected.

He opened the car door, and said, "I don't like her!"

Sean's car disappeared in front of Emma. She fixedly stared at the already empty street, and let out a sigh of relief...

...

On the road, Sean pulled off the necktie and threw it to the passenger seat, turning off the air conditioner, but he still felt hot.

His irritability and restlessness came from the strange feeling in his own heart just now.

He tried his best to calm himself, but he couldn't calm down. All his mind echoed Emma's "Sean".

He drove fast. He dared not look at the slender figure in the rearview mirror when he left...

The phone at hand rang. Sean tapped the answer button casually.

Wilson's voice came over the phone, "Sean, what did Officer Brown say?"

Sean's heart sank a little bit. The sudden upset made his anger nowhere to vent. He forced himself to calm down and said, "He doesn't want to see you..."

Wilson on the other end of the phone was silent, except for the slight engine ringing in the car, there was only the heavy breathing of Wilson on the phone.

On New Year's Eve, an inconsistent firecracker sounded outside, waking Emma from her sleep.
