Chapter 122 Thank You
Christopher unscrewed the bottle cap with one hand. Then, he raised his head to drink water. He was
gulping down the water in a hurry as he stared at the phone screen with his light gray eyes.
Christopher was still wearing a shirt. He had undone several buttons on his cor. His tie was hanging
loosely around his neck. Apparently, Christopher just came back from outside.
Yuliana did not speak and looked at him across the screen.
Christopher gulped half of the water in the bottle in one go and put the empty bottle down. Then, he
smiled at Yuliana. “Are you waiting for my call?”
Yuliana replied, “No.”
Christopher raised his eyebrows and looked slightly proud. “Then, why are you on the bed and still
awake?” Yuliana said, “I was reading just now.”
Christopher grunted in acknowledgment and asked, “What kind of book did you read? What is it all
about?” Yuliana was stupefied. She seemed to have read a book rted to literature just now, but she
could not remember the content. Just now, she could not read all of it at all.
However, she did not want Christopher to be too proud, so she said, “I was reading an elementary
school textbook.”
Then, she casually mentioned the contents of the textbook.
Christopher looked at her with a half-smile. Yuliana’s face was slightly hot. Yuliana was not sure
whether he believed it or not.
After a while, Christopher lowered his voice and asked, “Do you miss me?”
Yuliana pursed her lips and said, “No.”

Upon hearing this, Christopher’s mouth turned up into a smile. He said in azy and hoarse voice,
“Ana, I miss you.”
After that, he shamelessly added another sentence, which made Yuliana blush. Yuliana could not help
but scold him for being a pervert.
Christopher said, “Ms. Livingstone, can you think of something new? You only know how to repeatedly
scold me for being a pervert. Why don’t I teach you something else, okay?”
Yuliana stared at him without saying anything.
Christopher was amused by her expression again, and his chest moved because he wasughing. The
two of them chatted for a while, and Christopher asked Yuliana what she had done today.
Yuliana said that she went shopping with her colleagues. Christopher asked her about the things she
bought. Although Yuliana replied casually, she avoided talking about the coat she bought for him.
Both of them talked for half an hour.
The weariness between Christopher’s eyebrows was apparent.
Yuliana said, “I’m sleepy.”
Christopher paused and said, “Well, I’ll hang up since you’re sleepy.”
They looked at each other across the screen for a moment. Then, Yuliana hung up the phone.
She put down her phone and pulled the quilt. Then, she turned off the light andy on the bed.
The room was quiet, and there was only the sound of Yuliana’s breathing. The bed that was six feet
long seemed to be too spacious.
Everything was just right. Suddenly, Yuliana felt a little not used to it.
The next morning, Yuliana decided to visit the nursing home.
Months had passed since Yulianast saw Harry’s grandma, and thetter’s health had indeed been
getting
worse.
Upon seeing Yuliana, Harry’s grandma stared at her for a long time but did not recognize her. She was
mumbling about Harry’s name at one moment, then, at another moment, she mumbled about Yuliana’s
name. The nurse who took care of Harry’s grandma said, “She was awake a few days ago, and Mr.
Ziegler came to see her.”
Yuliana nodded and stepped forward to pull up the nket on Harry’s grandma’s leg. Yuliana squatted
in front of her and grabbed her hand. Then, Yuliana said, “Grandma, I’m Yuliana.”
Upon hearing her words, Harry’s grandma stared nkly at her. After a long time, she opened her
mouth slightly and said, “Yu… Yuliana.”
The nurse stood aside and smiled. “She still remembers you.”
After hearing this, Yuliana felt a little sad.
The nurse said, “Mrs. Ziegler, please stay with her for a while.”
Yuliana nodded. Then, she paused and nced at Harry’s grandma, who was sitting in a wheelchair.
Yuliana whispered to the nurse, “You’d better call me Ms. Livingstone. Harry and I are divorced.”
The nurse was stunned for a moment but soon regained her senses. She nodded and turned around to
leave.
It was a nice day in Juxshire.
Yuliana pushed Harry’s grandma outside to bask in the sun for a while, and then Yuliana talked with
her. Although Yuliana was the one who did all the talking, she believed that Harry’s grandma could still
understand it.
It was almost lunchtime when the nurse came back and informed Yuliana that it was time to push
Harry’s grandma back for lunch.
Yuliana and the nurse pushed Harry’s grandma back to the ward. No one knew when Harry arrived,
and he was cing something in his grandma’s cab.
After seeing Yuliana, Harry held his gaze sternly. Then, he walked over to take the wheelchair from
Yuliana.
The nurse found a reason to leave.
Yuliana made ast-minute decision toe to the nursing home in the morning and did not tell Harry
in advance.
It was a coincidence for them to meet one another.
Yuliana had been at the nursing home for several hours. Since Harry had arrived, she did not need to
stay any longer.
“You can have lunch with grandma. I’m leaving,” Yuliana said.
“Wait.” Harry stopped her.
Yuliana looked at him.
Harry said, “It’s not easy to get a taxi around here. Stay for a bit longer. I’ll send you backter.”
The nursing home was located in a remote area. The people could afford to stay here because their
families were not short of money. In the past, Yuliana would ask the driver to pick her up. This time, she
came here by taxi, but she might not be able to hail a taxi easily if she wanted to go back.
If Yuliana took the bus or subway, she had to walk for a few miles.
Yuliana refused indifferently, “That’s not necessary.”
After saying that, Yuliana turned around and left.
Aftering out of the nursing home, she stood at the entrance for more than ten minutes, but she did
not get a taxi. Finally, she did not bother to wait anymore and walked to the nearby bus stop.
Yuliana checked the map and found that the nearest bus stop was nearly two miles from the nursing
home.
The distance to walk there was not far as it would only take about half an hour.
At noon, there was no one on the road. Very few vehicles passed by as well, and the sun was hot and
shining. After Yuliana walked for a while, she started to sweat.
It was not easy for her to get to the bus stop. After waiting for half an hour, she did not see a bus.
She did not have lunch during noon and walked for more than half an hour. Now, she was hungry, and
she sweated a lot. Yuliana felt her blood sugar go low and began to feel dizzy.
She leaned against the bus stop sign and felt a little relieved.
Yuliana took out her phone again and tried to hire a taxi on the taxi-hailing app. After the order was
sent out for a few minutes, there were no drivers who responded to it.
Just as she canceled the order and was about to ce another order, a ck sedan slowly stopped in
front of her.
Harry lowered the window and said, “Get in.”
Yuliana was stunned. She stared at him for a while, and finally opened the door and got in the car.
Harry nced at her and saw her pale face. He handed her a bottle of soda.
Yuliana did not refuse. She took it and unscrewed the cap to take two sips of it. She felt better after
swallowing the cold drink.
The car was running smoothly on the road.
Harry said, “Thank you.”
Yuliana looked ahead and replied in a low voice, “You don’t have to thank me. I’m not doing it for your
sake. Grandma is kind to me. It’s only right that I go to see her.”
After that, both of them did not speak. Yuliana was a little sleepy. As she was looking out of the window,
she unknowingly fell asleep.
When she woke up again, she was already outside the residential area.
