Deep Affection: Honey, Come Back To Me

Chapter 246 Emma

Emma blinked her eyes. She wondered John was referring to her.

Silence had fallen in the ward and she felt embarrassed again.

Mustering a smile, she took the initiative to nod at the people in the ward. It somehow helped in covering her mortification.

Then Emma walked over to Nina. "Are you feeling better? You told me that you were in the hospital a few days ago, and I wanted to come to see you, but my tutor didn't grant me a leave. That's why I can only come here today."

Since that time when Nina had helped Emma regarding Harrison's affair with another woman, they had been messaging each other often on WeChat.

Michelle was in Spring City and Nina couldn't get in touch with her anyway, so Emma became her friend.

Still, no one could replace Michelle in Nina's heart. All Nina wanted was to protect her friend, as well as the one that Michelle herself wished to protect.

"I'm fine. He's the one who's is hurt." Nina cocked her head over to John, and Emma gave her greetings. "Mr. Shi."

She was polite.

Nina glanced at James, who immediately understood what the look meant. He hurriedly brought over a chair for Emma.

He was very gentle and appeared to be docile as he did so,

his usual pompous and domineering bearing gone.

He looked like a man with an imposing appearance.

"Emma, have a seat." Jam

short form of Germanic names that began with the element ermen meaning 'whole' or 'universal.' It was introduced to England by Emma of Normandy."

His words stunned everyone in the room.

James was notorious for hating to read the most, but here he was, spouting knowledge about the origin of the word "Emma." He was eloquent about it, too.

Learning all that couldn't have been easy for him.

Emma looked around the room at the people's surprised faces. She didn't quite understand it; nothing particularly unusual had happened anyway.

She didn't think there was anything specifically wrong with her today either.

She smiled wide in an attempt to mask the flush on her cheeks. "That is indeed the origin of my name, yes."

"See? I'm right. You all don't believe me." James didn't know that he was just a man with slight talent and superficial learning in the eyes of his family.

He thought that his family members were surprised by the origin and meaning of Emma's name.

He thought so because he was also surprised at the beginning.

Angela was excited. It looked like her son had grown up.

She used to think that James was rather dull, and he had detested studying more than anything. It appeared that they had been wrong with their assumptions. He only needed the right person to motivate him to make progress.
