Purchased A Mr. Right

Anthea frowned and stood up. "Do you know who is the man in the photo, mam?"

"No, I don't!" The woman shook her head and quickly denied it. Her face turned pale. "I don't know who he is. I don't even know where this photo came from! I have never taken it before!" Anthea pursed her lips and said, "But your daughter said this man is her father."

The woman's eyes flickered with uneasiness, and her voice was shocked and flustered. "How can you believe the words of a child? She is too young to understand at all. Don't take what she said seriously! We have nothing to do with the man in the photo at all!"

The little girl also seemed to had realized that she had done something wrong and hid in the quilt, not daring to say a word.

"But..."

Anthea still wanted to ask, but the woman interrupted her. "Thank you very much for sending my daughter home. Now we want to rest. Please leave!"

Then she began to push Adam and Anthea out.

When they walked out of the courtyard, she closed the gate and even locked it from the inside, as if she didn't want to see anyone again.

Anthea and Adam were both speechless.

They knew that this woman must be hiding something.

Now they were very suspicious how she had gotten sue

The woman's reaction when the little girl took out the photo was very abnormal.

If there were too many suspicions, there would be a conspiracy!

On the way back to their apartment, Adam called Braxton, his comrade-in-arm, and asked him to arrange someone to keep an eye on this woman and her daughter. Then he called Carter to re-open the case. When they got home, they put this episode behind and began to their privacy.

After dinner, they went downstairs and took a walk.

The apartment rented by Anthea was connected to several other buildings. There was a small park in the middle. At this time, there was still the last sunset. Many couples came out to talk a walk after dinner like them.

It was so quiet and peaceful.

They had been hiding in Francis for more than a week since they had eloped to get their marriage certificates.

Adam held Anthea's hand tightly.

He could not only hold on to firearms but also cook meals for her.

Adam rubbed her tender skin softly and didn't want to let go. When he glanced over, he saw her smiling brightly.

He was affected by her and also smiled. "Why are you smiling?"

"I just thought that it would be good to stay here for the rest of my life! We can run a small clinic. I'll be the doctor, and you're the cashier. After work every day, when we get home, you can cook for me!" Anthea grinned charmingly.

"Well, that sounds pretty good." Adam agreed.

Smiling at each other, they both felt that the picture seemed to be floating in front of their eyes.

However, their peaceful life was disrupted soon.

After returning to the apartment, Anthea took a bath first. When she came out, she saw Adam talking on the phone in front of the window with his back to her.

She was so interested in scaring him.

As soon as she stood on tiptoe, Adam turned around with a frown.

Anthea was stunned. Adam said in a deep voice, "We have to go back right now."

Seeing his serious look, Anthea was also worried.

"What happened?" She asked with concern.

"My dad is hospitalized."

Anthea held her breath anxiously.

They immediately picked things and rushed to the airport.

While wait for boarding, Anthea asked, "Is uncle all right?"

She didn't know if Adam was afraid that she would worry too, but Adam just said, "I don't know yet." "Don't worry, Adam. I'm a highly-skilled doctor. If uncle is in danger, I will fix him!" Anthea comforted him. It was not that she was boasting, she just wanted to ease Adam's mood.

"Yeah." Adam was a little dazed.

At about 12 o'clock that night, the plane landed smoothly.

Carter had been waiting for them outside the airport.

As soon as he saw Adam, he saluted, "Captain Chin!"

Adam nodded slightly and got into the car with Anthea.

There were not many vehicles on the expressway at this time. After 40 minutes, they arrived at the hospital unimpeded.

Before the car even stopped, Adam already opened the door and jumped out.

Anthea didn't know what was going on inside, so she decided not to show up.

Adam touched her face through the car window and said, "I'm not sure about the situation, but I'm afraid it would be long, so Carter will send you back home first. You need to rest early after such a long flight." After saying that, he strode into the hospital.

The hospital was quiet at midnight.

Occasionally, there would be an emergency in the emergency center. It would become noisy and then calm again.

Around 3 am, Adam walked out of the hospital.

After being busy for nearly a whole night, he looked weary. He lit a cigarette and was about to walk to the side of the road to take a taxi, but he stopped suddenly. The jeep was still there.

Carter wasn't in it already and Anthea was now in the driving seat instead. She was lying on the steering wheel with her hands folded and waiting quietly.

She was not in a deep sleep.

When the door was opened, she woke up in an instant.

Adam felt very warm in his heart. At this moment, he seemed to had realized that they were husband and wife. They were no longer just lovers. Now they were a couple who would be together through thick and thin.

Anthea would be with him for the whole life.

Seeing her bloodshot eyes, he felt distressed. "Didn't I tell you to go home first? Why are you still here?"

Instead of replying, Anthea asked urgently, "How's your dad?"

"He is fine now," Adam said, "He had serious acute myocarditis last night. It's a chronic ailment. The doctor said the disease had been brought under control. Now my fad is fine and needs to stay here for a period of time."

Hearing this, Anthea nodded.

Although she was not very good at heart surgery, she still knew something.

At the same time, she was relieved to see that Adam was not so nervous as before and breathed a sigh of relief.

No matter what, Adam's father had pulled through.

In the family building of the military region.

When the jeep stopped, Adam carried Anthea out of the car.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and curled up in his arms like a little kitten. She was so sleepy that she was almost unable to open her eyes.

Adam tenderly kissed her eyes and said, "Baby, we are home now."
