Waiting For a Girl Like You - Chapter 1078 Farewell, Sally

It was basically a man’s habit, and he was accustomed to it already. He was wearing a hospital gown without a belt, so it was easier for him to take it off.

Unbeknownst to him, Sally was sitting on the toilet seat, silently holding her luggage. Her eyes were puffy and red. She could only stare blankly at Sean, who was unbuttoning his pants.

As she caught herself in that awkward situation, her face flushed all the way to her ears!

The next second, realizing something amiss inside the bathroom, Sean directed his gaze at the toilet seat!

Stunned, Sean quickly pulled up his pants as he observed the girl squatting on the stool unmoving. And like him, her face also showed a mortified expression.

“What…”

Sean almost blurted something out of his impulse but forcibly cut his words off. He swiftly took a peek at Dr. Cheng, who was still lingering inside his ward, before immediately closing the door. Looking at her with a deep frown creasing on his forehead, he whispered, “What are you doing here? When did you come?”

Sally’s face was still giving off a rosy glow. But she merely sniffed and sobbed, “Just now.”

Scanning her sad face anxiously, Sean no longer cared about the embarrassment he felt. With concern in his voice, he asked, “Why are you crying?”

“Uncle Sean, I’m leaving now!”

Dr. Cheng’s loud voice was soon heard from the ward. He hastily called out to Sean as he had to answer an emergency call. The doctor did not even bother to wait for his patient to come out.

The two froze, and both glanced at the door. Hearing the door click shut, Sean heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that the doctor had left.

Feeling helpless and disheartened, she kept her head lowered. She didn’t want him to see her face. After a moment, Sally abruptly stood up from the stool and muttered hoarsely, “I’m fine. Sorry I was in here.”

Then she hurriedly walked out without glancing at him.

With a worried look, Sean watched her retreating back. After he was done changing, he quietly came out. With a complicated expression on his face, he stood by the door and observed her packing her things. When Sally took out her doll from the closet and stuffed it into her bag, Sean inched his way towards her.

“You haven’t answered me yet. What’s wrong?”

Sean gently grasped her wrist, stopping her. Sweeping his eyes over her face, he demanded in a tone soft with affection, “Tell me. Did someone bully you?”

Sean could easily deduce that Sally hadn’t slept all night. She had dark circles around her eyes and she looked quite tired.

“You did.”

Sally choked, biting her quivering lips. Swallowing hard, she managed to lift her head to look at his eyes squarely as if gauging his reaction without missing a beat.

Sean unexpectedly blanked out for a moment after hearing her reply. And he didn’t know how to respond no matter how hard he tried to find the right words to say to her.

Silence ensued between them as they remained mum for a while. Sean’s dark eyes were darting back and forth with his conflicting emotions, unable to bring himself to ask her any more questions. Scanning her eyes, Sean just uttered, “I’m so

, it was the first time she would formally meet her uncle and aunt, so she should leave a good impression.

Emerging from her room, she found that Adonis was still waiting for her at the door.

Wordlessly, she admired her brother. Although he was only seventeen years old, he had shot up to 1.85 meters. He had flawlessly inherited his father’s physical attributes, but her brother was more outstanding in appearance and temperament. And of course, more profound and charming.

“Sally, Uncle Sean’s fiancée is the daughter of Officer Lu. They are well-matched, and she also has a good character. Uncle Sean claims that it’s better to marry someone who can understand his career, which is beneficial for both of them,” Adonis explained.

For Sally, it seemed like Uncle Sean didn’t care whether they loved each other or not.

Adonis quietly peered at her with one hand in his pocket. He wanted to tell her more so that she wouldn’t say anything improper later on.

Although these were known to all, she was an exception.

With Adonis’s explanation, she would not raise some inappropriate questions.

“Why, it’s not Jane?” she wondered.

Sally had always thought that her Uncle Sean would marry Jane, which the Ji family had also expected.

Adonis, being starry-eyed, shook his head. And he laughed, full of contempt.

“The Ji family was afraid that Uncle Sean would forget his origin, so they gave Jane to him. The more they behaved like this, the more disgusted Uncle Sean was.

Besides, how could Uncle Sean let others lead the way?

You have been abroad. Maybe you don’t know about it.

Jane married the Deputy Director-General of Xicheng in JA City two years ago. Our father helped make the match, which kind of satisfied the Ji family.”

Taking in his words, Sally slightly gave him a nod and commented offhandedly, “I see. I have missed a lot during the past three years.”

Adonis suddenly reached out his hand to her like a real gentleman, and with a faint smile in his gentle eyes, he prodded at her, “Let’s go, Sally. Are you ready?”

He thought that it was time to see whether the wound had healed or not after three years of being away.
