Chapter 258 I'll Always Be Waiting For You
âIt's fine. I only eat them occasionally.â âYou call that occasionally?â George was like a parent who
couldn't stop nagging. Camilaâs eyes flashed slyly. âDo you want to drink some wine?â She had to
change the topic. Sure enough, he took the bait. âSure! It's been so long since we last drank
something together.â She walked to the cabinet to bring out a bottle of red wine and poured a glass
for him. Then, she filled her own glass as well. âHere's a toast to you, George. You're so far away yet
you specially came for us.â
He smiled. "Why are you so polite with me?â
Camila giggled. âIt shows that I have manners and that I'm not an ungrateful person.â George
laughed out loud upon hearing that. Both of them drank glasses after glasses of wine while South
chatted with Silas on the tablet computer after having finished his food. South wrote, They are
eating and drinking now! Silas replied, âIs George's liquor tolerance good? South's little fingers
tapped away skillfully on the screen. âHe's average. Even if there are three of him, they are no match
for Mommy, but he likes to drink with her. Silas responded, âWhy? South's eyes rolled slyly. If you
make a tasty breakfast for me tomorrow morning, I'll tell you one secret about Mommy! Silas
replied, âNo problem. What do you want? South wrote, âSpicy lobster. I want to have it for dinner
tonight, but mommy doesn't allow it."
Silas typed, âDo you still want to eat it now? I can cook for you! South replied, âIt's alright. I'm
already full. Silas suggested, âIf you want to eat anything next time, just tell me directly! South
replied, âThere's a bad woman who came to pick a fight with Mommy today, but she has already
settled it! Silas replied, 'l know. I will teach her a lesson! South suddenly changed the topic. âLet me
give you a present.
Silas asked, âWhat present?â South answered, âMommy said that sheâs going to give you a test and
that she doesn't like Mr. George. How's that? It's a good present, right?â Silas replied, âIt is. I'll make
you an extra large portion tomorrow!
Both the father and son were happily chatting while the atmosphere between the two adults in the
living room grew warmer. However, George was already drunk. His eyes were glassy when he
continuously smiled at Camila. âIt has only been three months since I last saw you, but it feels like
three years to me. Are you planning not to return there?"
Camila put down her wine glass. âYes. This is my hometown, so I will have to return here, no matter
what. Why don't you return as well?â He took a deep breath. âI would love to stay here to
accompany you guys too, but the clinic doesn't allow me to do so. After you resign, our main doctor
is always absent. If I leave, the clinic will definitely close down. Your juniors aren't as intelligent as
you. Now, all the terminally ill patients are dependent on me.â She advised, âYou can't save all of
them. When it's time to rest, you have to rest. Your health is also important. What if you are so tired
that you fall ill?â George smiled bitterly. âI'm all alone. It's enough for me to feed myself, but saving
a patient is equivalent to saving an entire family.â Camila gave him a thumbs up. âYou are indeed
very respectable, George. However, you need to remember that you are not alone. If you fall ill, we
will be worried too.â His eyes suddenly brightened as he looked at her with passion. âCamila, I know
you have been hurt, so you don't trust men. I won't force you; in fact, I'm willing to wait for you. My
stance remains the same-if you are tired one day or if you feel safe with me, I'm willing to take care
of South and you. You know that I'll always be waiting for you to open your heart to me.â Her heart
sank upon hearing that. Oh no! What I'm most afraid of will eventually arrive!
