Chapter 60 Awkward

With an embarrassed smile and a shrug of the shoulders, Emma explained, “My dog ran out of food. I
can't let my dog starve. It is picky and only eats one brand…”

The owner was a northeast man, more than 40 years old, some fat. Hearing Emma's rambling, he
didn't say anything.

After Emma finished speaking, he said with a smile, “You come in the right time. It’s been closed these
days, but I came to grad something, and you happened to come in the right time. What brand do you
want? I get it for you.”

Emma took a glance at the position of the dog food. She really did not know what kind of dog food
Nunu liked to eat, because Maggie would take care of it.

She pointed casually at one of the brands, “I'll take Mercer.”

Hearing that, the owner was surprised. After a moment, he said, staring at Emma, “It is cat food......”

“......”

-- -- --

When Emma came out of the pet store, her face was still rosy because of embarassment.

With half a bag of dog food in her hand, she walked fast.

At the door of Sean's villa, Emma turned around and looked at the pet store, it was closed.

She took sending Nunu dog food as an excuse, but she could not get through with Sean.

After about 10 minutes of ringing the doorbell, there was still no movement inside. Emma was
completely discouraged.



She was crouching at the door of the villa, her hands and feet shriveled for it was too cold, but she did
not want to go.

She wanted to wait a little longer, probably he would be back in a minute.

Two hours later.

Emma who was frozen could not help jumping in situ, trying to warm up her body.

A dazzling light shone in the distance, Emma raised her hand to cover her eyes.

As the passed by her, the sudden darkness made her hard to adapt to it.

Soon, the sports car that had just passed drove back, stopping beside Emma.

When the window fell, Edward's face suddenly appeared in Emma's line of sight.

Edward looked Emma over from top to bottom. After making sure that he was not mistaken, he said
with a bad smile, “Hey, isn't this wild cat? What are you doing standing here on such a cold day?”

Hearing Edward calling her wild cat, Emma got sick of him. She said in heart, “Are you blind? What am
I supposed to do standing at the door? Do you expect a home invasion?!”

She thought in heart, but she said coldly, “None of your business. Have I stood at your door?”

Edward was stunned for a moment. He had already known this girl. Not surprised, he turned to smile
and said, “Ok, none of my business. You go on.”

Emma was too lazy to answer him and turned around directly, leaving a back to him.

Edward drove the car away, and Emma gradually disappeared in his rearview mirror.



All the way Edward had been worried, thinking of that she was frozen miserably.

Finally, he called the Knight’s house and said over the phone, “Sean, what's the matter with you and
your wild cat? She seems to have been standing at the door of your villa for a long time, and I saw her
face was pale for it was cold...”

“......”

-- -- --

Emma squatted on the ground, and her feet have been frozen with no sensation.

Depressed, she raised wrist to take a look at her watch, it was already close to dawn.

Half a bag of dog food was still on the ground. She wanted to give up, thinking he might not come back.

She got up to rubbed her numb legs. But at this hour, there was headlight behind her.

Emma was too lazy to look back. During these hours, large and small luxury cars had passed by her,
and none of them was Sean’s.

Emma bowed her head and wanted to move her feet. Suddenly, a sour tingling feeling jumped up from
the bottom of her feet. She had to hold the wall beside her hand to stand still.

Before the tingling sensation disappeared, she heard the sound of a car door closing behind her. She
only focus on beating her legs. She did not pay any attention to it until Sean's voice sounded from
behind her.

“You don’t sleep at home. Why come here?”

Emma looked back in surprise.



At the moment when they looked at each other, Emma seemed to forget that her feet were still numb,
she lifted her legs and walked toward Sean.

But she failed, her legs were so unwieldy that they seemed not belong to her.

Sean's coat button had not been fastened, apparently he was in a hurry to be back.

He found something wrong with Emma, walked to her and held her arms, to avoid her falling down.

Sean frowned, “What's wrong with your legs?”

Emma smiled with embarrassment, “Well, nothing, I have been squatting for too long, so my legs were
numb......”

Sean said nothing. His eyes fell on the half bag of dog food not far away. “Is that why you came here at
midnight?”

Emma was guilty, only dare to secretly glance at him through the corner of her eye. She said , “Who
knows whether you have mistreated Nunu when I was not around. I felt worried.”

Sean ignored her, picked up the dog food, opened the door of the villa with the remote-control key.

Emma felt better in legs. When she saw Sean strode into, she quickly followed in.

As she entered the villa’s door, Sean turned to her, “Nunu is not here!”

“What?!”

...

In the entrance hall, Sean turned on the light and stood at the door changing his shoes.



Emma looked inside. It was quiet, it seemed that no one had been there these days, because the shoe
cabinet was covered with a layer of dust.

“Where is Flora?” Emma asked staring at Sean's back.

Without turning around, Sean put the dog food aside, took off his coat and said, “It went home for the
New Year and will come back after the eighth day.”

Emma was enlightened suddenly.

She followed him into the living room. Before she stopped, Sean turned and went up to the second
floor.

After a moment of thinking, Emma did not follow her but waited in the living room.

There were bedrooms on the second floor. What if he went to change clothes? How embarrassed it
was if she followed him.

Emma sat in the sofa, could not help but shivering. No one lived in the villa for a long time, and no air
conditioning was on, so the temperature was the same as outside, it was freezing cold.

Soon, however, Sean came down from the second floor.

His clothes were the same as when he came, but his tie had been removed and one of the buttons of
his shirt had been opened.

Emma stared at his collar and wondered if he was cold.
