Chapter 1288
He palm was very gentle.
He touched her with deep care and love like she had done tons of times.
His words burnt Anthea.
Then she felt surges of emotion coming up in her heart.
Anthea clenched her fists so hard that even her nails turned white. She shook her head and said with a cold voice. "Not anymore!"
She closed her eyes for a while. Then she pushed him away and strode back.
They went away without telling Eric, Anthea thought that Eric would be anxious when he found she was not with him.
Not far away, there were two figures in military uniforms standing under the sunshine.
They were both very tall and had short shoulder-length hair. They did wear much makeup, but they looked bright and brave. Unlike the people in sportswear who came to play golf here, they both wore military uniforms.
The younger woman with some documents in her hands treated the other with respect. It seemed that they were here to do their work.
At this point, she pointed to the front and said in a hurry, "Amelie, look over there!"
She was pointing to Adam and Anthea.
At this time, they were coming out of the corner one after another.
Adam, with his hands in his pockets, walked leisurely behind with a light smile, while Anthea was walking fast ahead, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand. Although the two women did not know what had happened just now, they could easily figure it out.
They must have kissed! After all, it was hard to ignore the intimacy between them.
The woman in the military uniform took Amelie's arm and blurted out, "The man there seems to be Captain Chin, and I've seen the woman beside him before! In the hospital, Captain Chin held her in arms that day! It's her! They..."
Amelie interrupted her in a cold voice, "I saw it!"
She was not blind!
She saw everything clearly!
The woman wanted to say something more, but seeing Amelie's sharp, fierce eyes, she immediately shut up and remained absolutely silent.
With vicious eyes, Amelie watched them going farther and farther away and turned to leave with a gloomy face.
The female soldier followed her hurriedly.
When Anthea returned to the pavilion, Eric and Carter were still playing golf.
However, it was very obvious that Carter only made half-hearted attempts to play it. He was feeling too dull to lift his golf shaft. Beside him, Eric had obviously lost interest in competing with him, but to maintain a polite demeanor, he forced himself to play golf with Carter under the sun.
Seeing her come back, Eric immediately asked, "Anthea, where have you been?"
After he fought a round with Carter, he turned around but surprisingly found that she was no longer in the pavilion. Instantly, his heart burned with anxiety.
He wanted to call her, but Carter dragged him to continue their game.
Before she came back, Anthea fixed her make-up.
Actually, she only made simple makeup. Through her lips did not swell up after Adam's kiss, he had eaten up the thin layer of lipstick on her lips. The little change made her feel guilty before Eric, so she put lipstick on her lips again.
She glanced back and said with a little embarrassment, "I went to the bathroom!"
With a vicious smile, Carter stood there his hands with his hands pressing against the golf shaft. "Captain Chin, you also went to the bathroom, didn't you?"
"Yes," Adam said.
A gust of breeze brought the attractive scent on Adam to Anthea, who then held her breath and took the initiative to say, "Eric, the sun is too bright, and I'm a little tired. Let's get out of here. You've talked about a good musical concert, right? Let's go there now!"
Eric was delighted. "Okay!"
He had been looking forward to being with her alone, but he did not expect to meet Anthea's friends. To leave her a good impression, he had been trying hard to show off. Now hearing that she wanted to leave. he was overjoyed!
Eric immediately put away the golf shaft.
Just a he was about to leave with her, Carter suddenly raised the golf shaft.
"AARGH!"
Eric cried out in pain.
Carter dropped and quickly walked forward with concern as if he were not the one who deliberately hit Eric. "Alas! Mr. Chafee, I'm really sorry! Are you okay?"
"I'm fine..." Eric said, but his faceturnedghastly pale.
"I was too careless!" Carter explained, "I was thinking about how to get the ball into the hole, so I didn't pay much attention to the shaft in my hand. I didn't mean to hurt you. What should we do? Mr. Chafee, I'm so sorry!"
After all, Carter was a well-contrained soldier, not an ordinary person.
He claimed that he was playing football with the shaft, but he had exerted much strength. So, when the shaft hit Eric...
Adam said calmly, "You should go to the hospital as soon as possible. Your bone seems to be broken."
Anthea was speechless.
She went forward to have a rough check on him and found that it was not a minor injury.
It looked like he could not continue the date!
Anthea cast a glance at Carter, who looked innocent, and then at Adam, who looked calm. The corner of her mouth twitched. When they left the golf course, they certainly could not go to the concert. Instead, they went straight to a private hospital.
As she had expected, Eric's forearm was cracked.
Although there was no need to put his forearm in a cast, it had to be fixed with planks and bandages. It would take at least ten days or even half a month for him to recover. After all, a broken bone was hard to heal.
After several examinations, the emergency room doctor treated his injuries, prescribed some medicine, and let them leave.
Outside, the sun was getting stronger.
Eric was accidentally injured. The doctor had just told him that he should go back and rest. Thus, he could not continue dating Anthea.
Adam and Carter also came to the hospital. To express his apologies, Carter followed Eric all the time and rushed to pay for his medical expenses.
When Eric got the medicine and was about to leave, Carter said, "Mr. Chafee, you can't drive like this! It's all my fault! I accidentally hurt you! I'll drive you home!"
"Don't bother!" Eric shook his head.
In fact, he wanted to say goodbye to them and let Anthea drive him home. But Carter insisted. "No trouble at all! I accidentally hurt you, so it's my responsibility to take care of you. I should do something to make up for it! If you don't let me take you home, I will feel more apologetic!"
Eric opened his mouth, intending to refuse him again. But Carter had already taken his car key.
Without giving him the opportunity to say anything, he helped him down the stairs.
The silver-gray car left hurriedly, leaving only Adam and Anthea.
Adam also took out his car key and smiled at her. "Anthea, I'll take you home."
Anthea was not stupid and had realized that they were echoing each other to ruin her date!
She snorted and said with a dark face, "No, thanks. The emergency room is very busy at this time. I'll stay and help!"
After that, Anthea turned around and ran into the emergency center.
She ran so fast that Adam only touched the hem of her clothes.
Before he could go after her with his military boots, his cell phone suddenly rang.
When Adam saw the number on the screen, he squinted and picked it up. "Hello, dad."
Bellamy's furious roar came from the line, accompanied by the bang of something smashed onto the ground. "Where the hell are you? Get back immediately!"
