Chapter 9 Proposing to You

After the medicine is solidified by the man, pick it up with tweezers and give it to her.

Diana opened her palm and looked at a small piece of white medicine, and suddenly thought, "Is there a medicine that can prevent contraception forever?"

Caleb frowned tightly, and quickly, in an attempt to hide his loss of composure, lowered his head and placed the test tube and forceps on the laboratory table: "You want to have an abortion?"

Seeing the woman nod, he said sternly without hesitation, "No."

He lied. In fact, if he wanted it, he did.

Then he held his breath and asked, "Why do you want this?"

Are you going to tell the truth? Diana brought the medicine to her mouth and took Caleb's water: "I don't want to have his child, nor do I want him to touch me."

Caleb was silent. He did not want to help her, but the opponent was Alaric, a man who could hold his own in Warsaw and the whole country, and he was not strong enough to contend with this man at the moment.

"Make him detest you, not make him interested in you."

Diana agreed that she had been provoking him for the past two days, trying to make him even more disgusted with her and then let her go, but it didn't seem to have much effect.

Suddenly feeling that the topic was rather heavy, she winked at him: "A beauty like me, it's hard, only a strange doctor like you can hold on."

The woman's black and white eyes blinked at him, causing his mind to shake violently.

How could he possibly hold on?

"The effect is 48 hours?" Diana was referring to prophylactic.

Caleb was still relishing what had just happened to her. He cleared his throat gently and nodded his head.

"Get me a few more... Just in case."

No more questions, drop the pills into small glass bottles one by one and give them to her.

He knew her situation, and Alaric was no ordinary flood or beast to be ashamed of. Even if she was very reluctant, she would probably not be able to resist.

"Thanks." Put the medicine in the pocket of the skirt: "Then I'll go and see the Eva."

Turning to be the first to go out, my wrist was suddenly pulled tight by a force. Looking back, Caleb had already grabbed her.

“……”

Caleb spread his hand down along her wrist, quickly touching her palm and fingers, and then a cold thing slid into her middle finger.

It is a European-style red beryl ring set with diamonds...

Diana looked at him in puzzlement and met his deep, indistinct eyebrows and eyes. Caleb curled his lips and said, "I propose to you."

“……”

"Will you?"

"I can't, bigamy is against the law..."

The man smiled and said nothing, but touched the edge of the red beryl, the gem opened, and there was a thin needle embedded inside.

"The special silver needle can detect toxic substances in food, and the new type of toxin in your body can also be detected."

"I can't take such an expensive thing." Diana wanted to take it off for him. Mrs. Rosa loved all kinds of gemstones, so the first thing she did when she married into the House of Owen was to please Mrs. Rosa, so she learned and researched a lot about gemstones, knowing that red beryl was a rare gemstone that was very difficult to mine, and on the market, one carat cost more than three million.

Such a large gemstone, at least tens of carats...

The ring was pushed back again by Caleb: "No matter how expensive it is, it's not as precious as your life."

For the first time she saw Caleb so resolute, she froze for a moment, and finally let him put the ring on his index finger, exactly the right size.

In fact, she didn't know that the most expensive thing was not the gem, but the specially made silver needle...

"Let's go." This time he led her out first.

"Has Jim come to see the Eva recently?"

Jim is the nanny's son and has grown up with her like a brother.

"He comes when he has no classes, but he's been busy with part-time jobs recently and always asks me when you're coming to the hospital."

"Doesn't he know it's hard for me to come out?" Diana frowned as she remembered Jim's laid-back look.

"Sure, but we all hope to see you often." "

"If we get divorced, I'll probably be bothering you every day, and you won't find me annoying?"

"It would be an honor."

Diana thought of how he looked like a washed white, lying in bed waiting for his favor, and burst out laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" Caleb stopped. For the first time, he was so absorbed in seeing her smile like this that she probably didn't know how beautiful she had been just now.

Diana shook her head: "The last time I saw Jim, he had a bangs on his head and looked quite funny."

"Shall I do that too?"

"No, you look more handsome like this."

Caleb nodded contentedly and lowered his head with a barely perceptible smile on his lips.

The nurse went to fetch water. There was only the nurse in the nurse's room.

She was thinner than she was two years ago, and her hair had turned a little whiter. She lay quietly on the hospital bed, and if it weren't for the ventilator, she wouldn't look sick at all, as if she were asleep.

Diana crept up to the Eva, very lightly, fearing that her high heels would make a sound when they stepped on the carpet.

"Eva?" She tentatively called out in a low voice, but the nurse remained still, motionless and unresponsive.

Taking the wet Eva's hand, Caleb had already pulled out the chair for her.

Sitting down, he lowered his head and stroked the wrinkles on the back of the Eva's hand, which had been in a coma for a long time and was so thin that a gentle pull would cause a layer of skin.

Caressing the back of the Eva's hand, over and over again:

"Eva, I'm sorry. It's been so long since I came to see you. You must be angry with me, right?" But you know, the House of Owen is very strict. I managed to sneak out of there, so you're not saying I'm disobedient again?"

Diana suddenly laughed, thinking of how every time she drank cold water, the Eva would jump up and down in anxiety, and how every time she complained that the House of Owen was like a prison, and how every time she wanted to go home, the Eva scolded her back.

And... And...

"Would you be in a hurry to wake up if I said I was going to divorce Alaric?"

She quietly observed the Nanny's face, still so serene. If it were in the past, the Nanny would have looked at her seriously, with her hands on the sides of her thick waist, frowning and saying, "Diana, marrying into the House of Owen is your blessing. You should cherish it."

Good fortune? Cherish your blessings?

Diana sighed. The three years at the House of Owen were actually the least happy three years for her. Where did the happiness come from?

"Rest assured, I will take good care of myself and Jim."

Though not her own, she has long regarded Jim as her younger brother.

And the nurse is probably most concerned about Jim...

After seeing the nurse, Caleb saw Diana out of the hospital entrance.

After a brief farewell, Diana stepped on the gas, shattering the night.
