Mr. Sterling, Mrs. Sterling is Multifaceted!

Chapter 248: Diary

The palm slowly clenched, and the candy was tightly held in the hand, the metallic taste that had disappeared just now returned.Seraphina Redgrave felt bitterness in her mouth, Brother Zack was really silly, buying so much candy and not knowing to bring it to her, they had all expired, so why didn’t he come.

Seraphina pressed her lips tightly together, barely suppressing the impulse to spit blood.

Suddenly, she noticed an unusual color in the candy, right at the bottom.

She pushed aside the candy and found a thick notebook hidden underneath.

She slowly took it out; this was Zachary Zane’s diary.

Since Zachary Zane was a descendant of Veridian Isle people, he didn’t go to school at all and knew very few words, his handwriting was crooked and clumsy.

Ethan Sterling walked to Seraphina Redgrave’s back, hugged her slender waist, rested his head on Seraphina Redgrave’s shoulder and looked at the diary together with her.

Some year, some month, some day, the weather was clear.

"Seraphina, today brother worked all day in the restaurant and finally got paid, bought a notebook.

Although I’m not very capable, I actually really avoided the soldiers’ patrol and swam here.

This place is so big, completely different from where we came from, there are so many people, so many cars, and flickering lights, glowing green one moment, and then turning red, it’s really amazing.

I couldn’t distinguish north, south, east, and west when I left, almost got hit, the driver was very nice, didn’t ask me for compensation, just left.

If it was on Veridian Isle, two people would certainly fight to the death.

Seraphina, I really like it here, one day, brother will achieve something great, earn a lot of money, and then bring you back."

Most of the thick diary was filled with words, written one by one by Zachary Zane to Seraphina Redgrave.

"Was he just missing you like this?"

Ethan Sterling looked at Seraphina Redgrave’s side face, his heart aching unbearably.

"..."

Seraphina Redgrave was still immersed in the touch the diary brought her, not speaking.

Ethan Sterling suddenly felt an itch in his throat, turned his head and coughed twice.

The cough brought Seraphina Redgrave back to reality, she looked at Ethan Sterling’s pale face, thought for a while, put the diary back in the box, "Let’s go back."

"Okay." Ethan Sterling couldn’t be happier.

On the way, the rain didn’t stop for a moment until they got home.

The lights in Hibiscus Garden were brightly lit, everyone inside quietly waiting for them.

Nathan Ayers, Nanny Lynch, and Dr. Goodwin were waiting at the door.

A car slowly approached, and Nathan Ayers immediately opened an umbrella to welcome them.

Ethan Sterling opened the car door, got out, and carried Seraphina Redgrave down.

And Seraphina Redgrave held an iron box in her arms.

"Miss!"

Nanny Lynch’s eyes were red, running down the stairs in a rush, running to Seraphina Redgrave, looking at her soaking wet, deathly pale face with traces of blood on the corners of her mouth, her tears were on the brink of falling, "Miss, you were fine when you went out, how did you become like this now."

What exactly happened!

"Move."

Ethan Sterling’s icy gaze swept over Nanny Lynch, carrying Seraphina Redgrave inside the house.

"Why are they so wet, I’ll go make ginger soup!" Nanny Lynch worried about them getting sick, hurried to make something to ward off the cold.

The room was very quiet, the fierce raindrops were all blocked outside.

Ethan Sterling bathed Seraphina Redgrave in hot water, then placed her on the bed, carefully arranged her swollen ankle.

Ethan Sterling changed her into thicker pajamas to prevent her from catching cold, then used the quilt to wrap her tightly.

After Dr. Goodwin came in and checked, he drew a tube of blood from Seraphina Redgrave and said: "I’ll go do an examination of Miss Redgrave’s blood, there shouldn’t be any major problems, it’s just too urgent."

"..."

These seemed to have nothing to do with Seraphina Redgrave, she lowered her head without speaking, her eyes only on the diary in her hands.

Turning page by page, she wanted to know what Zachary Zane had gone through this year.

Suddenly, the diary was snatched away.

"There’s plenty of time to read it later, not today." Ethan Sterling said coldly.

Seraphina Redgrave didn’t argue, just sat there, her eyes vacant.

Seeing their interaction, Dr. Goodwin’s heart was anxious, seeing Seraphina Redgrave’s current state, he advised, "Miss, people have emotions, you can laugh if you’re happy, cry if you’re not, don’t hold it in your heart, it will cause problems."

"..."

Whether she listened or not, Seraphina Redgrave didn’t say anything.

She just knew the surroundings were very noisy now, it’d be better to be alone.

"Miss."

Nanny Lynch brought in ginger soup that wasn’t too hot, seeing Seraphina Redgrave like this, couldn’t help but say, "Miss, drink some ginger soup to ward off the cold, soaked in the rain for so long, you’ll catch cold and fever."

Seraphina Redgrave’s gaze fluctuated, looking at the steaming ginger soup, shook her head, "It’s okay, let him have it."

She didn’t have an appetite now.

"Miss, how can it be okay? I’ve lived so long, I have experience, girls catching cold is very bad, you’ll suffer by yourself." Nanny Lynch persuaded sincerely.

As soon as she finished speaking, Nanny Lynch felt someone patting her.

It was Dr. Goodwin, "Nanny Lynch, where’s Young Master Sterling’s ginger soup?"

He remembered, it was Young Master Sterling who paid her salary, right.

Young Master Sterling’s rain wasn’t any less than Miss Redgrave’s.

"Uh..." Nanny Lynch stood in place, looking at Ethan Sterling’s increasingly cold face, awkward to the point she didn’t know what to do with her hands and feet, "I, I’ll go pour a bowl right away."

"..."

"..."

Dr. Goodwin rubbed his forehead.

Ethan Sterling wasn’t angry either.

Nanny Lynch quickly put the ginger soup at the bedside and still reminded Seraphina Redgrave, "Miss, remember you have to drink it, otherwise you’ll suffer."

This bowl mustn’t be wasted on the young master.

Seraphina Redgrave pursed her dry lips and nodded, which was considered an agreement.

Only then did Nanny Lynch leave satisfied.

Once Nanny Lynch was gone, Seraphina Redgrave didn’t want to deal with it anymore, leaned against the headboard, and closed her eyes.

Even though she didn’t show any expression, it made people feel a sense of poignancy from the bottom of their hearts.

Seeing her like this, Dr. Goodwin didn’t say more, looked at Ethan Sterling, leaving a bottle of medicine, "Young Master Sterling, this medicine is for treating a sprained ankle, it’s best not to move for the next few days."

Originally he wanted to apply medicine for Miss Redgrave, but seeing Young Master Sterling like this, probably wouldn’t let him do it.

"Okay."

Ethan Sterling responded quietly.

"Then I’ll take my leave." Dr. Goodwin nodded.

After Dr. Goodwin left, Ethan Sterling went to Seraphina Redgrave’s side, seeing she didn’t even want to speak, he simply didn’t disturb her.

Ethan Sterling lifted the quilt, placed Seraphina Redgrave’s leg onto his lap.

After being battered by long hours of rain, Seraphina Redgrave’s ankle was even more swollen than before, Ethan Sterling found the injury somewhat glaring, squeezed out ointment and applied it for her.
