Chapter 427: As Long As A Year

"Dr. White, where are you going?" Beside the road, Jason drove past and saw Yvonne carrying a suitcase and standing by the road. He hurriedly stopped and asked.

Seeing that it was Jason, Yvonne went up and said, "I’ll take the car to the county town!"

"I also want to go to the county. I’ll give you a ride." Jason opened the door and got out.

"Is it convenient for you?" Yvonne was a little embarrassed.

"That’s all right. Come on. The mountain road is not easy to ride on. My car is much more stable than the bus." While speaking, Jason had already put her luggage in the trunk.

"Then... I’ll have to trouble you." Yvonne said gratefully.

Jason opened the door of the passenger seat and said, "It’s not troublesome at all. You are the only general practitioner in our town. Everyone is very grateful to you during this period of time. It’s not a big deal for me to do this."

As they got along with each other, Jason gradually became more talkative.

Yvonne thanked him and sat inside.

"By the way, Dr. White, are you going on a long journey?" Asked Jason as he drove the car out.

"Yes, I will go back to Tomaville." Yvonne said.

As she spoke, she stroked her flat belly. Now that she had a baby, it would be safer to take the train from the county to go back.

"Mr. Gregor, are you sure it’s this time?" Two days later, in the conference room of the lawyer firm, James waited for a long time, but Yvonne did not appear.

He asked with confusion.

Mr. Gregor also found it strange. "That’s right. Miss White made the appointment at this time. Maybe she was delayed on the way. Let’s wait for a while."

Mr. Gregor comforted him.

James did not ask further and continued to wait patiently.

However, he waited till late at night.

Mr. Gregor looked at the time and found that it was already 10 o’clock in the evening, but Yvonne was still nowhere to be seen.

He said, "Mr. Taylor, it seems that Miss White won’t be here today. Why don’t you go home first? I’ll ask her about it tomorrow and then let you know."

James was sitting there. Hearing his suggestion, he slowly looked up at him.

"No, she will definitely come." James said with certainty.

"But... it has been so long since she hasn’t come yet..." Mr. Gregor said.

"Is it?" He had already waited for three months. It’s no matter to wait for a while now.

His gaze suddenly became a little scary.

Mr. Gregor didn’t dare to continue.

He could only sit down and wait in silence.

It was until midnight when all the lights in the building were turned off. Mr. Gregor couldn’t wait any longer and had to leave alone.

After Mr. Gregor left, James was left alone in the meeting room.

Under the dim light, he sat there alone from morning to late at night. At first, he was excited and eager, but then he gradually calmed down and became disappointed.

It had only been one day, but it seemed as long as a year.

He knew that she would not come, but he just did not want to believe it.

In order to come to see her, a person who was usually so straightforward, picked out clothes for more than two hours before setting off.

Only he knew how much he cared about today’s meeting.

"But why didn’t she come?" James thought.

He sat there thinking all night and couldn’t figure it out.

The next day, when Mr. Gregor arrived, he saw that James was still in the conference room with black eye circles. He couldn’t stand it anymore.

"Mr. Taylor, you didn’t go home last night. Do you want to go home and sleep for a while?" Gregor asked.

"It doesn’t matter. I can hold on. How is it? Did she contact you?" James asked anxiously.

However, Mr. Gregor shook his head.

...

Disappointment flashed in James’s eyes, but he still said, "It doesn’t matter. I have time. Let’s keep waiting."

He sat there like a big mountain, looking like he wouldn’t give up until he reached his destination.

Mr. Gregor couldn’t say much, so he only asked his assistant to bring James a breakfast and a cup of coffee.

However, when the assistant went in the meeting room after, he found that except for the coffee, James didn’t eat the breakfast.

Mr. Gregor shook his head resignedly and couldn’t help persuading him. "Mr. Taylor, it’s no use for you to keep waiting like this. Why don’t you go home first? I’ll send an email to Miss White and ask her about it. I’ll let you know once I get the news."

However, James sat there motionlessly, as if he had not heard a word.

Mr. Gregor continued, "Have you ever thought that if Miss White suddenly comes and sees you like this..."

Mr. Gregor could tell that he cared a lot about his image in front of his wife.

As he expected, James agreed.

He said, "Please inform me as soon as you get any news."

"Okay." After watching James leave, Mr. Gregor returned to his office and sent an email. However, there was no response.

James waited at home anxiously until the third day, but there was still no news from Yvonne.

He finally couldn’t wait any longer.

He took the professionals and rushed to the lawyer firm.

He almost forgot that since she had replied the email, he must be able to find out her IP address.

"Check it! We must find the IP address of that email." As soon as he gave the order, several professionals began to work.

It didn’t take long for the results to come.

"Mr. Taylor, their email has been specially processed. We can’t find the exact IP address." They said.

"What?" This result was unbelievable to James.

Only then did he realize that she had been on guard for a long time.

Thinking that he had spent so much effort just in exchange for her reply email, he felt extremely angry.

In a rage, he kicked away the equipment and rushed out of the room.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

In the hospital, Yvonne was lying on the bed with an infusion on her arm, and the driver, Jason, was taking care of her.

"I’m sorry, Dr. White. It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t insisted on taking the shortcut, no accident would have happened, and you wouldn’t have been injured." Jason said with guilt.

A few days ago, he had a car accident on the way to the train station with Dr. White. Although Dr. White’s arm was just slightly injured, her fetus was affected and she needed to lie in bed to rest.

At the thought of the mistake he had made, Jason felt extremely guilty.

Hearing this, Yvonne comforted him. "Don’t say that. You’re just worried that I won’t be able to catch the train. Besides, there is nothing wrong with me. It’s just a minor injury. It’s not a big deal."

"But you have to be hospitalized because of me, and you can’t even go back to Tomaville." Jason said with self-blame.

When he mentioned the matter of returning to Tomaville, Yvonne’s eyes darkened.

Perhaps this was the god’s will.

She was even glad that she had been delayed because of this accident. Otherwise, she would probably have nothing to do with James now.

"It’s okay, it’s not a matter of importance." She said.

"By the way, I haven’t thanked you for helping me conceal my email IP address last time." She recalled the matter and smiled to him.

Jason scratched his head embarrassedly. "It’s nothing. You’re welcome."

"Can you help me again? I want to send another email, but it’s not convenient for me now." Yvonne said.

...

"Of course." It was certainly that Jason would help her. He was just worried about not having a chance to make amends for his mistake.

"However, I didn’t bring my equipment, so the effect may be greatly reduced." He said.

"It doesn’t matter." Yvonne said. Since James had already signed the agreement, there was no need to hide it any longer.

Besides, they were not in the mountains.

In Tomaville.

James, who was at his wit’s end, suddenly received several calls from Mr. Gregor, saying that Yvonne had sent another email.

This time, he didn’t delay a moment and immediately rushed over with his men.

"What did she say?" James hurried to ask as soon as he arrived.

When Mr. Gregor saw that James had brought another group of people, he was so frightened that he quickly protected his computer. Last time, James had even smashed his computer.

Seeing him like this, James frowned. "I’ll compensate you tenfold for the loss last time."

Hearing his guarantee, Mr. Gregor slowly let go his computer and said, "Miss White said that she has something urgent to deal with and won’t be able to come over. She will make an appointment with me when all things done."

Even though this wasn’t the information he was looking forward to, it was better than nothing.

At least, it could prove that she was safe.

Thinking of this, James heaved a sigh of relief, and he gave a signal to the professionals.

Later, Mr. Gregor’s computer was occupied again.

Before long, the results came out.

"Mr. Taylor, I’ve got it. The IP address is in Nopeka." His man said.

Nopeka?

"Why did it sound so familiar?" James thought.

He thought about it and suddenly remembered, wasn’t that the place where he went before?

At that time, he was detained by the traffic police for breaking the rules, and Yvonne went to bail him out.

For this reason, they also volunteered for a week in the nursing home there.

He had never thought that Yvonne would go there.

Thinking of this, he said, "Find out the detailed address immediately."

"Yes." He was replied.

Since she couldn’t come back, he would go to find her.

Thinking of this, James did not delay a second and immediately set off.

In the hospital, Yvonne lay on the bed with boredom, so she simply took up her phone and was about to look through what her friends posted.

Early in the morning, Janice updated some photos.

It was the photos of her babies.

In the photo, the two babies had grown up a bit, and their chubby faces were very cute.

Looking at the screen, Yvonne could not help stretching out her hand to pinch their faces.

In addition to these photos, Janice had also composed a text.

She said, "Someone once promised to be the godmother of the babies. Now it’s been four months. Where is she? Humph! Don’t bully us because we are too young and immature. We will also remember it. So I remind someone again that you have three days to contact us. Otherwise, your godmother’s qualification will be revoked."

When Yvonne saw this, she couldn’t help but burst into tears.

Of course, she really wanted to be the godmother of the babies.

But... it was beyond her control!

She glanced resignedly at her arm and continued to look through her friends moments. However, when she saw Dorothy’s picture, she couldn’t help but be stunned.

Dorothy sent a photo, which showed her and Stanley’s face against each other.

She wrote: I’ve finally waited for you. Fortunately, I haven’t given up.

Yvonne’s gaze swept across the text and then stopped at the intimate photo of them again.

"So were they together?" She thought.
