Ethan walked into the house before nine o'clock, which was unprecedented. His eyes fell on the unopened medicine in the trash can, and he raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Are you bored? Why are you so angry over such a small matter?"
My face was as calm as water, and I responded calmly: "I'm not angry."
The corners of his mouth curled up with a mocking smile: "All the medicine for preparing for pregnancy was thrown into the trash can. Isn't this called being angry?"
"You can do whatever you want. Anyway, you are the one who is worried about not getting pregnant, not me." I was about to show him the pregnancy test report in my hand, but he got there first and handed me a dark shoe box.
" This is from Cindy ." He opened the box and said, "I haven't experienced anything serious. Seeing you angry and scared, you even said something stupid like abortion. I have to give you something to apologize."
There was a pair of YSL high heels in the box, but it was obvious that they had been worn. The soles were worn and the paint on the outside of the heels had fallen off a little.
"Take it. These shoes are not cheap. Cindy has only worn them a few times." He continued, "She has just started working and can't afford anything good. Giving you this pair of shoes is a painful part of her life."
I couldn't help but laugh when I heard that. Just half an hour before Ethan arrived home, Cindy was still showing off the new Chanel slippers she received on her Moments.
【The best brother in the world!】
[Thanks to your blatant preference, I dare to show off so blatantly ! ]
Seeing that I was reluctant to accept the shoes, Ethan 's face turned unhappy: " Grace , what are you doing?"
"You're almost 30 years old, and you're still making things difficult for a young girl who doesn't understand the ways of the world. Is that fun?" He threw the box directly at me, hitting me squarely on the head. I groaned, covering my forehead, tears welling up in the corners of my eyes. Ethan's eyes flashed with panic: "I didn't mean it... Let me see."
I dodged his extended hand and whispered, "I'm fine."
He forcibly pried open my fingers that were covering my forehead, and seeing the redness and swelling, his face darkened: "You call this okay?"
"Wait a minute, I'll go buy some ice packs." Before he finished speaking, his phone rang. The caller note on the screen read: Little Troublemaker.
" Brother Ethan !" Cindy 's crying voice came from the other end of the phone .
Hearing Cindy's crying, Ethan immediately became nervous: "Cindy, don't worry, talk to your brother slowly."
Cindy sobbed on the other end of the phone and said, "I have a stomachache and want to go to the hospital for emergency treatment, but I took the wrong subway and I don't know where I am now..."
Ethan frowned. "Why didn't you call me when you went to the hospital? Didn't you agree that I would drive you there?"
Cindy stammered, "I... did something wrong again today and made Sister Grace unhappy. I'm sorry to bother you again..."
Ethan told her solemnly: " Cindy , you are my only sister, and no one else's affairs are more important than yours. Send me your location on WeChat and I'll pick you up."
" No! Brother Ethan , I can find the hospital by myself, really!" Cindy said hurriedly, "Don't forget, today is Grace's ovulation day, you should accompany her well and let her give birth to a sweet and soft little niece for me as soon as possible!"
Ethan chuckled, "Silly, it's not like you can get pregnant just by doing it one more time. Your business is more important, send me the location now!"
After hanging up the phone, he glanced at me with a reproachful look: "Did you hear that? Cindy cares about you so much, and you are still suspicious all the time!"
"I'll take her to the hospital and bring you some ice packs." He picked up the car keys and hurried out.
"Ethan, wait a minute." I called to him.
He couldn't stand it anymore and yelled, " Grace , are you done yet?"
" This concerns two lives! Don't be too jealous!" I didn't defend myself, but walked to the cloakroom and took out a card from the coat he wore a few days ago, "Cindy 's medical insurance card, don't forget it."
Since Cindy didn't know how to register, her medical insurance card was left with Ethan. Ethan looked at me with surprise. After a long while, he took the medical insurance card and whispered, "Thank you."
He wanted to say something else, but I interrupted him: "Be careful on the road." I raised my hand to straighten his collar, just like I always did when I saw him off. I knew this was the last time.
He looked at my face and seemed to be moved. Suddenly, he held my hand and pulled me close to his chest: "Grace, I will be back soon, wait for me."
