Chapter 10 Pick Them Up At The Airport

Seeing her pale face, Eric didn't ask, and turned around and went to the study.

As soon as he sat at the desk, his private phone rang. Seeing that it was his grandmother who was calling, he frowned slightly. He raised the corners of his mouth, and there was a slight tenderness in his eyes. He said in a warm voice, "Grandma."

"Don't call me grandma. I don't have an unfilial grandson like you. Something happened to your mother. Why didn't you ask someone to tell me! Are you still my grandson? " Claire Ye said angrily and poked the ground with her crutch.

Bang! Bang! Bang--

Hearing the heavy voice on the other side of the phone, Eric knew that his grandmother was angry. He softened his tone and said, "Grandma, don't be angry. I'm afraid that you will worry about us. Mom is fine, so I didn't tell you."

"Don't coax me! You think I don't know? Your mom's in a coma in intensive care and you told me my daughter's okay. Eric, how dare you tell me that my daughter is fine! " Claire Ye's face turned livid with anger when she heard that Eric didn't tell the truth.

The nanny next to Claire Ye changed her face when she saw Claire's reaction. "Mrs. Ye, don't be angry. You can't do this. Take a deep breath with me. You can't stand it."

On the other side of the phone, Eric's heart tightened when he heard the nanny's words. He clenched the phone nervously and said, "Grandma, it's all my fault. Please don't be angry. The doctor said that mommy's body is fine and she will wake up."

"How can I not be angry? Claire Ye suddenly changed her tone and said in a soft tone, "She is my daughter-in-law after all. I know it's not easy for you to have what you have now, but you are still my grandson, and your mother is still my daughter-in-law. You are all my flesh and blood. Your father died early, and it was all your mother who raised you up. When something happened to her, how could I not be in a hurry! "

"Grandma." Eric tried to comfort Claire Ye.

Claire suddenly said seriously, "Don't say anything. I've bought the air ticket. Tomorrow, your second uncle and I will go to A City to visit your mother."

"Grandma!" Eric's eyes darkened and said helplessly, "My mother is really fine. Can your body withstand the torment of the plane?"

"I won't change my mind!" Claire Ye heard that Eric still didn't want her to go to A City, so she hung up the phone.

"Grandma, grandma! Grandma? " Hearing a busy tone, Eric put down the phone, and rubbed between his eyebrows and sighed.

When he finished his work and went downstairs, he saw that Molly was drinking water. Thinking of the phone call he had just answered and the words his grandmother and nanny said, he frowned fiercely.

"Molly Xu." Eric said in a low voice.

Hearing the familiar voice from behind, Molly's action of drinking water froze. She slowly put down the cup and looked back at Eric. Then she slowly lowered her head and looked at her toes. She said, "Yes."

"Tomorrow, my grandmother and second uncle will come. You go to the airport with me to pick them up." Eric glanced at her and said, "My grandmother likes plain colors. Don't wear too bright clothes to annoy her. Listen to her whatever she says. Don't make her angry. If she does, Molly Xu, you won't want to experience it."

Molly didn't reply.

Eric's eyes darkened. "Are you trying to show me your anger? You have to smile tomorrow. Anyway, you can pretend, and you have to pretend well. Now, smile. Let me see if it's okay. Don't frighten my grandmother. "

Taking a deep breath, Molly smiled unnaturally, as stiff as a robot.

"It's so ugly!" With a smile at the corners of his mouth, Eric turned around and left. "Go back to your room and practice hard. Go to the airport with me tomorrow morning."

Molly stood still in a daze.

Three minutes later, tears came out of her eyes and fell to the ground. She raised her hand to wipe the tears, as if she saw layers of mist floating in front of her, and she could not see the future.

She went back to her room in a daze. Lying on the bed, she covered herself with a quilt, and buried herself in it. Tears welled up in her eyes.

Not knowing how long, Molly fell asleep.

In the middle of the night.

Molly didn't know when Eric came in. He stared at the restless girl and murmured, "Molly, my mother likes you. I really treat you as my own sister! How could you do such a heartless thing? "

His words awakened her all of a sudden.

Tears streamed down from the corner of her eyes.

Eric kissed on her lips and asked in a low and hoarse voice, "Molly, why are you crying?"

In fact, he didn't care about her answer. He just wanted her to know what would happen if she offended him.

Jasmine bit her lips tightly and whimpered. She felt like she was going to be kneaded into his bones and blood, but she knew clearly that it was just a punishment.

She felt that her mind was in a mess at this moment.

For a moment, Molly even thought desperately that she should just die like this.

"If you dare to dream of leaving, and run away. There is no such a simple punishment. Just bear it well..." Eric stopped and whispered in her ear. Although his voice was soft, every word he said in her ear was murderous.

Her heart was beating so fast that she didn't know what to do.

"No!"

Before she could say a word, Eric kissed her on the lips again.

Eric looked at the motionless woman next to him and raised his eyebrows.

With a smile at the corners of his mouth, Eric stood up, and tidied up and left the room. He told the nanny not to disturb Molly.

"Beep, beep, beep..."

The alarm clock kept ringing. In a daze, Molly opened her eyes, and took her phone and turned the clock off. It was already half past six.

Feeling the pain as if her whole body was torn apart, she felt that her whole body was no longer hers.

Her face turned pale.

Molly knelt on the carpet without a step. Just a slight movement of her body could make her sweat.

When she managed to get into the bathtub and take a bath to relax, she was covered in cold sweat.

After she washed her face and saw herself in the mirror, she looked away and went to the dresser to make up. The foundation make-up covered her dark under-eye circles.

She didn't see Eric at breakfast, which made her relieved. She ate breakfast silently. It was not a good time to be sentimental. If she didn't eat breakfast, she would have no strength to walk at all.

Thinking of this, Molly's face turned red and pale. She was so annoyed!

When she just put down her chopsticks after breakfast, Eric appeared in front of her.

Molly looked up at him and quickly looked away.

Eric looked her up and down and said, "Okay."

Looking at her creamy white high necked long sleeve dress, Molly instantly understood what he was talking about.

"Let's go."

Molly followed him.

In garage.

When she was about to open the door handle of the back seat, she found that she couldn't. She looked at Eric, and Eric looked at her indifferently. After a silent contest, she loosened her grip on the handle, and went to pull the handle of the passenger seat and pulled it away.

She calmly sat in and fastened the seat belt.

Eric] glanced at the seat belt and started the car.

They kept silent all the way.

In the waiting hall of the South Airport.

Molly stood next to Eric, waiting for Eric's grandmother and second uncle's family.

Eric saw a charming old lady and smiled. He stepped forward and held Claire Ye, "Grandma."

Then he smiled at a couple and said, "Uncle Sam, aunt Bella."

Seeing this, Molly silently followed him and made a natural smile. "Hello."

She also nodded to the couple and smiled, "Hello."

During the greeting, she took over the suitcases of uncle Sam and his family.

"Little girl. You don't look good. Do you want to change it? Pay the debt. " Claire said straightforwardly, frowning at the sight of Molly.

The smile on Molly's face froze. She quickly lowered her head and pursed her lips. "No, I think it's good. I look like my mother."

Claire just said it casually, but she really didn't like the appearance of Molly.

Eric didn't say anything. He just smiled at Claire and said, "Grandma, I've booked a hotel. I'm going to welcome you."

"No hurry. You are Eric's assistant, aren't you?" Hearing Eric's words, Claire Ye suddenly became interested in Molly.

Just as Molly was about to agree with Claire.

Eric said with a gentle smile, "Grandma, she is my fiancee, Molly Xu."

Claire's face darkened. "I'm not satisfied with her face. Change to another one. I think the girl next to you, Elsa Zhang, is pretty and pleasing."

Eric's aunt pulled Claire Ye's arm and said, "This is what I told you. The girl whose parents died a long time ago looks like the daughter of sister-in-law."

"I knew it. She doesn't look good." Claire Ye said firmly.

Molly's face turned pale.

But she forced a smile and tried to be gentle and generous. "Brother Eric has told me to take good care of you when you come to the Xiao family. Welcome to A City. I hope you can have a happy life in the future."
