"Everything is in order. There are no other problems. You can handle the rest yourself, Mr. Adrian." Said Adrian and Chris coming out of the building.
"OK, Chris. Thank you again." Adrian said with a smile.
"That's what I should do. Besides, you're paid." Chris shrugged his shoulders, looked behind him, and then with a wry smile, "I have to apologize to you, anyway."
"Sorry?" Adrian also looked behind her. Jacqueline was teasing her daughter from time to time. Because the baby sitter can't come temporarily, and her daughter is a little guy who likes to rely on others, they have to take her with them.
"It doesn't matter. There are always accidents in life. Besides, she didn't delay our business, did she?" Adrian waved his hand in disapproval.
The three soon came to the street. After a few more pleasantries, Chris drove. Adrian was in the same place talking to Jacqueline because there was something else in the neighborhood.
"He's always like this. He's always busy with his work, and he can't listen to opinions - mine either." Jacqueline's expression became gloomy when it came to her husband's work as a lawyer.
"It's normal that every man has a dictatorial side, especially when his wife and his career are the same." Adrian, who noticed this, immediately changed the subject: "Hey, Emma, how many cars have you counted."
The little girl who stares at the traffic coming and going on the street turns her head around. Her brown eyes turn round and say, "I forgot."
She said, "Oh, it's really nice to listen to her voice for the first time
The little guy made a face at him and quickly turned his head and buried it on his mother's shoulder.
"We're leaving, Mr. Adrian. Goodbye." Jacqueline, who noticed her husband's car on the street, said with a smile.
"Goodbye, then." Adrian nodded to the car.
In less than two steps, a loud noise suddenly came out. Without warning, a red double decker bus rushed in and hit Chris's car heavily. The huge impact force dented the car and was pushed into the street among the flying debris.
"Ah After a short blank, Jacqueline shrieked and ran madly with her daughter.
"Come back, Jacqueline! Don't go there
Unfortunately, it was too late. The bus that hit the street into the flower bed showed no sign of stopping at all. There was a clattering sound in the street, and Jacqueline, who was holding her daughter, was the first to bear the brunt.
Facing the bus close at hand, Jacqueline had only one thing to do. She threw her daughter back in her arms. Then, she was hit by the bus and flew out for more than ten feet.
Adrian, who originally wanted to run horizontally, jumped up instinctively and held the girl tightly. When the impact force is strong, his body loses balance, and the bus continues to rush forward without slowing down. At this critical juncture, Adrian became surprisingly calm. He fell back and rolled on the spot holding the girl tightly until his back hit the cement board. Then the bus rushed in front of him with strong wind.
There were several huge noises again. The taxi bus rushed into the street, collided with several cars and finally stopped. It took a few seconds for Adrian, lying on the ground, to recover from his shock. His back was aching and he was still sweating. His forehead, elbows, knees and other places had a burning sensation, at least his skin was worn.
"Damn it..." Adrian scolded in a low voice, and then thought of something. Looking into his arms, the little girl who was hugged by him did not seem to be hurt, but looked at him with pale face and indifferent eyes, as if he had no soul.
"Emma? Are you all right, Emma Adrian gasped and patted the little girl's face, but there was no response. He looked up and gritted his teeth and sat up. Although the streets were in chaos, with screams and running noises, there was still a kind-hearted man running up to him and said, "are you OK, sir?"
"Please call an ambulance. I'm not sure if the child is injured." Adrian said so, then looked around with a wry smile. Damn it. How could it happen?
========================================
sitting quietly on a bench outside the operating room, Adrian sometimes looks at the red light of the operating room, and sometimes looks at the little girl in his arms. Now that he had changed his clothes and had band aids on his forehead and nose, he had only a few bruises that were not serious, and the Watsons were much worse.
Although Jacqueline was sent to the operating room for rescue, her internal organs were seriously damaged and there was too much bleeding, which was very dangerous. However, the most difficult thing is Emma in her arms. She doesn't say anything all the way, and she doesn't have any facial expression. She shrinks in Adrian's arms all the time and doesn't go anywhere. If anyone wants to let her down, she will have a fierce reaction. Adrian has to carry her around, even to do the examination. Fortunately, she didn't ask to go to the bathroom 。According to the doctor's judgment, the little girl is too frightened. It is an instinctive reaction to hold Adrian. If she wants to return to normal, she must find an opportunity to vent her anger as soon as possible, otherwise it is difficult to say what she will become.
Thinking of this, Adrian can't help sighing, looking at the little girl in his arms, smiling bitterly and shaking his head.
The door of the operating room was suddenly opened, and the doctor in the green coat came out with exhaustion. Adrian quickly welcomed him: "doctor, what's the situation now, doctor?"
"I'm sorry, we've tried our best, sir," said the doctor with a heavy voice. "I'm sorry, your wife..."
"No, no, no, she's not my wife..." Adrian shook his head and was about to correct the other side's statement. Suddenly he was stunned, "you mean Doctor, you mean She... "
The bed covered with white sheets has been sent out by the nurse.
"I'm very sorry if it could be delivered five minutes earlier..." Even if Adrian is not her husband, it should have something to do with being outside for so long.
Adrian didn't say anything more. He just sat back on the bench after the bed disappeared in the corridor. The little girl in the arms still has no look, the original eyes have no luster. He couldn't help sighing. The thought of her parents disappearing into the world made him feel inexpressible.
Sad? sympathy? Or pity? Adrian doesn't know. To put it bluntly, every reborn will directly or indirectly lead thousands of people to "die". He has no time to be sad one by one. But now it's different. They die in front of him, especially Chris's sunken car and Jacqueline in a pool of blood. No matter how calm and rational he is, he is also human, so it is inevitable to feel trance.
Come on, don't think about it. Try to give Emma back to her family first. At the thought of the little girl in his arms, Adrian began to have a headache again. Wouldn't she just shrink in her arms for the rest of her life?
At this time, a burst of footsteps came, two old people who looked almost 60 years old appeared in front of Adrian along with the doctor and the police.
"Hello, Mr. Cowell." The doctor said hello to him, which was the examination he had done for Emma.
"Hello, Dr. Sean. What can I do for you?" Adrian said, looking at the two old men who were following him.
However, before the doctor could speak, the old woman came over with tears in her eyes and wanted to take the little girl from Adrian's arms: "Oh, Emma, my poor Emma, are you ok?"
The little girl suddenly struggled up, just as before did not want to leave Adrian's arms.
"Emma, baby, it's me. I'm grandma. I won't hurt you. No one here will hurt you," the old man said anxiously, tears rolling down.
Hearing this, the little girl's dim eyes finally flashed a glimmer of light, and her body was no longer struggling. Then she looked at the old man with some doubts.
"Poor baby." The old man murmured sadly and finally took her out of Adrian's arms.
Seeing Emma leave him, Adrian was relieved, but at the same time there was a faint sense of loss.
"Thank you, Mr. Cowell. I'm Russell Watson, Chris's father. They've told me about it. Thank you for saving my granddaughter." While grandma coax her granddaughter, another old man comes to Adrian and reaches out to him with a sad look on his face.
"It's not worth praising. I just did what everyone would do in that situation." Adrian sighed, "for your son and wife I'm sorry. "
The old man nodded heavily, looked at his wife, and then said, "well, we're off for the time being."
Adrian didn't speak. He just made a gesture of invitation.
Russell then took his wife's hand, and they both bowed to Adrian and walked out with Emma in their arms. At first, it was nothing. With the distance getting farther and farther away, the little girl in grandma's arms suddenly became restless and restless. No matter how the old man comforted her, she could not be quiet.
The little girl suddenly looked at Adrian over her grandmother's shoulder, and held out her hand to him. Every little distance, her body twisting would increase. Her brown eyes were full of madness and despair.
"Well, Emma, don't worry. It's all right." Grandma kept comforting, but it didn't work.
Finally, very suddenly, the little girl suddenly howled, as if there was a knife in her body, she finally cried out and struggled madly. Helpless grandmother had no choice but to put her down. As soon as her feet touched the ground, the little girl ran to Adrian as hard as she could. She ran into his arms and hugged her tightly and cried bitterly. For a moment, all the people present looked at each other and didn't know what to do.
