chapter 14

But his mind always felt shrouded in a fog, and there must be something he had not noticed.

Soon, their car stopped at the hospital. Luke had already contacted Dr. Jason in the car, so they just needed to go directly to the office.

After arriving at the office, Adam left Luke outside and went in to meet Dr. Jason himself.

Daisy sat in the living room, looking at the house that had become lonely again, and slowly exhaled.

It was the first time she realized that she was also afraid of loneliness.

In the past, no matter how long she waited at home, her love for Adam could overcome all negative emotions.

But at this moment, she suddenly became afraid.

The loneliness that had been suppressed for too long was like a tsunami that was about to come crashing down, ready to swallow her up.

*bell--*

The cell phone placed on the sofa suddenly rang, and it was this ringtone that instantly pulled Daisy out of the suffocating feeling of loneliness.

She was like a drowning person, frantically grabbing at the last straw in front of her.

It was not until the moment the call was connected that Daisy felt as if she had come back to life, and at this moment her palms and back were covered with a layer of fine cold sweat.

"Hello," Daisy's voice was a little hoarse.

Nyla's lively and sunny voice sounded on the phone, "Sister Daisy, are you having dinner with my brother tonight?"

Daisy took a deep breath, and then calmed down and said, "Your brother has something to do, so he left. If you want to eat, it may just be you and me."

She knew she couldn't stay home alone.

No matter who it is, as long as she can talk to someone.

Sure enough, Nyla heard this and complained unhappily, "He is too busy. He doesn't even have time to have a meal with you!"

Daisy gave a slight bitter smile, thinking to herself that Adam might not even come home to have dinner with her on their wedding anniversary, let alone on such an ordinary day.

"Okay then, I'll pick you up later. I saw a new western private kitchen opened in the city center, let's go try it!"

"Good."

After hanging up the phone, Daisy finally relaxed her tense nerves, and she also felt a dull pain in her head.

Daisy stood up and took out a painkiller from the bag of medicine she brought back from the hospital. She took one pill according to Professor Diana's instructions.

She was going to take a bath to relax. It was not a good sign that she was always so tense.

In the steamy bathroom, Daisy stepped into the bathtub. The warm water wrapped tightly around her body. The feeling of the hot water soothing her muscles made her sigh in comfort.

Heat rose in the bathroom, and gradually Daisy's consciousness seemed to get lost in the thick heat.

Somehow, she suddenly remembered the graduation trip, the swimming pool, and that kiss that made her tremble with fear whenever she thought of it.

Daisy and Adam went on the junior high school graduation trip together, and they were accompanied by Adam's childhood best friends, Alex and Ava.

Ever since Daisy learned about Adam's feelings for her at that party, she began to quietly integrate Adam's circle of friends.

Fortunately, Adam is not a person who likes to make friends. There are only two people who can be considered friends around him, and they are his best friends, Ava and Alex, who are in the same class and sit at the same table with him.

Alex was the same as Adam, cold and distant. Daisy doesn't have much contact with him.

Daisy wanted to pursue Adam, so she naturally started with Ava. Speaking of which, the way she and Ava met was indeed a bit dramatic.

Ava is the kind of girl with an angelic face but a devilish mentality. People who are not familiar with her will naturally be deceived by her angelic face, and those little boys who are in adolescence are among them.

At that time, the boys in the school were divided into several groups according to their family backgrounds. Among them, there was a boy who fell in love with Ava, and Ava rejected him many times.

But the other party continued to pester her until one day after school, when Ava was alone and preparing to go home, he blocked her in the school garden.

Daisy happened to pass by, so she helped Ava call the teacher on duty who was patrolling.

That's how the two got to know each other, and later the relationship between the three of them became better and better, and they even went on their junior high school graduation trip together.

It was during this graduation trip that Daisy's thoughts were discovered by Ava.

In the swimming pool, a young boy was leaning against the pool with his eyes closed, and Daisy's eyes were staring at Adam almost without any concealment.

This was the scene that Ava, who had just changed her clothes and came in, saw.

She curled her lips slightly and smiled. Daisy heard the noise and looked toward the exit, only to see Ava's figure.

For a moment, she couldn't tell whether her face was hot from embarrassment or from the heat of the hot spring.

Ava raised her eyebrows and gestured with her palm, signaling her not to panic.

So, the two people with different thoughts understood the meaning in each other's eyes.

However, until the three people behind started chatting, Ava didn't show anything wrong, so Daisy breathed a sigh of relief.

Ava went to chat with Alex, who is also in the swimming pool.

Afterward, they had almost finished soaking in the swimming pool, and the four of them were a little hungry, so they prepared to leave.

But when the four of them stood up, Daisy felt a collision at her lower back. Her feet slipped, and she suddenly rushed forward. The person standing in front of her happened to be Adam.

Adam was also caught off guard by Daisy's sudden fall. He lost his balance, and they both fell to the ground.

But at this moment, Daisy keenly felt something wet and soft touching the corner of her lips.

The feeling was fleeting, but she knew clearly what it was.

Adam accidentally kissed the corner of her mouth.

This realization almost instantly ignited Daisy's cheeks, and a flush appeared on her face, ears, and neck.
