Chapter 272 Intimate Hug
Chapter 272 Intimate Hug
Georgia just stared at Robert, thinking that he was a little too optimistic.
“You sit here, I will deal with it. I will make a cave for you later.”
After he finished speaking, he helped Georgia to rest against a big tree.
Then, he walked over to the sunken ground, took a sharp stone and began to dig the soil. Georgia only then understood what he was going to do. He was trying to dig out a hole.
There were rocks on the soil. As long as loess below was dug out, there would be a space for people to hide from the rain.
“You will need to dig for a long time like this.”
Suddenly, Georgia was worried about him. Robert had suffered such a serious injury today, and now he was desperately digging out the soil from the hole. It was a huge project, especially when he was doing it without the help of any tools. He was barely using his hands to dig a space for two people to sit inside.
“Haven’t you heard a story telling about a man named Foolish Old Man that had successfully moved the mountain with his perseverance? If you haven’t heard about that, you must have heard about the mythical bird Jingwei, trying to fill the sea. It’s all about perseverance and determination. Besides, I just want to dig out a hole that can fit the both of us only. Don’t worry, it won’t be long.”
Robert finished explaining. He concentrated on digging out the mud from the hole. Georgia took the initiative to walk to his side.
“Let me help. You will spend a little longer time if you do it alone. Two persons will be twice as fast as one person.”
However, Robert suddenly became stubborn at this moment.
“Your hand is injured. Just stay there and rest. I can do it alone. Please don’t try to force yourself.”
“I only injured my left hand. My right hand can still move. It seems that the rain is coming soon because I heard a thunder just now. Moreover, we both can’t get wet in the rain, so we should do it together to be faster.”
“No way. Even if you only injured your left hand, you are still a patient now. You need to rest.”
Robert forcefully picked Georgia up and placed her at the foot of the tree, where she was sitting there before.
“I said I don’t need your help. I can do it. Please trust me this time and rest well, okay?”
Robert was coaxing her, and a tear fell from Georgia’s eyes.
Robert suddenly became a little flustered.
“What’s wrong? Did I hurt you by saying that?”
Georgia smiled and shook her head.
“I’m just missing a lot the one you were like a year ago. Since you’re back, your attitude towards me before this was always feeling disgusted about me. You only care about me today. Just now, you even used the tone like you’re coaxing a child to coax me. Robert, you used to do the same to me, but you’ve already forgot all those things… How can you forget me?”
Georgia cried and hugged Robert. For that instance, Robert didn’t know where to place his hands.
After a few seconds, Georgia let go of him.
“Forget it, you won’t understand what I’m saying. Since you insist on not letting me to help, you better move faster because it’s about to rain. Later, we both can at least hide inside the hole. Neither of us should get sick, okay?” Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
At this moment, Robert fled. He suddenly felt afraid to look at Georgia again. Hence, he rushed to the hole and continued to plow out the mud.
Thunder struck for several times and there were tiny raindrops falling from the sky. Georgia felt a cold feeling on her face and Robert’s work was already halfway through. The hole had been shaved into a space where it was enough to accommodate one person.
If he worked on it a little longer, maybe it would have enough space for two of them.
“Robert, it’s going to rain soon, you have to be faster. Or else I’m afraid that it will rain heavily soon.”
Robert did not speak, but he accelerated his own movements. Georgia could only see that he was using his own hands to shave the soil away from the hole.
The hole got bigger again and now, it could probably accommodate an adult and a child.
Suddenly, a bright lightning flashed across the sky.
Right after that, several thunderclaps were heard, and rain started pouring down from the sky. Before Georgia could react, she was already drenched.
However, Robert had not finished digging. This made Georgia so anxious that she did not know what to do, but Robert rushed straight to her and picked her up.
“There’s already room for one person, I’ll carry you there.”
In the blink of an eye, Georgia was put inside the sunken hole, while Robert stayed outside. The rain had already wetted his entire body.
“Robert, come in. Why are you staying in the rain?”
Georgia yelled in anxiety.
“It’s too small to fit the two of us.”
“You come in first. Then, you hold me in your arms. With us holding onto each other, this hole will be enough to fit both of us.”
Robert did not move. The sky had completely darkened, and Georgia could not even see his expression, nor could she see his gaze, but she did not want Robert to get wet. She did not want him to get sick too. So, she yelled anxiously again.
“It has come to this kind of situation! Do you still have to care about my identity? Or the relationship we once had? I just want you to stop getting wet! Come here, we can both hide in this hole. Even if you hate me and resent me tomorrow, or even if we both go on our separate ways tomorrow, you still have to come in and hide from the rain. Just bear with it for one night, okay?”
Georgia’s words sounded like she was pleading him to do so. In the dark sky, Georgia could only see Robert’s tall and large figure. He suddenly sighed in the dark.
The next second, Georgia felt that he was approaching her.
Then, she was held in his arms.
Another second later, the two of them were already inside the hole.
The hole was very small. Georgia could not even straighten her body. Even Robert had to curl his body up and let Georgia lying in his arms. The two of them almost intertwined in each other. Even though they were lovers who already had sex, the two of them had never been this close to each other.
Before that, Georgia was so determined to shout at him and let him come inside. But now, Georgia could not help but blush. She did not dare to speak. She felt that Robert would lean even closer to her if she spoke.
The two of them just quietly maintained this position for a long time. Around an hour later, Georgia felt her legs were numbed. She tried to move a little.
However, she simply didn’t have the strength to move her legs because they were too numb. But if she continued in that position, the numb wouldn’t go away.
Georgia moved her body carefully. All of a sudden, the man’s low voice was heard.
“Georgia, do you know what will happen next if you continue to move like this?”
Georgia had already felt the heat from the man’s body. She blushed with shame and her voice became aggrieved.
“My… my legs are numb, I’m sorry…”
After she finished speaking, she was so shy to say another word. In the darkness, Georgia felt the man below her sighed again.
Then, before she could react, she suddenly felt her entire body being spun around and flipped over, and she was completely laying on the man’s chest.
Before that, Georgia had her back on his stomach.
But now, their cheeks were pressed against each other, and their posture had become more intimate than before.
Georgia didn’t know what to say. She felt embarrassed and shy. But the, Robert spoke in the dark.
“This position can give you a little more room to move. You can try to move your feet and hands. If there is any discomfort, you can adjust your position. You are too skinny, so I can still hold you. Don’t worry about pressing onto me if you move.”
After Robert said this, Georgia felt a little touched. She tried to adjust her posture, but in the end, the two become closer to each other, as if she deliberately moved closer to him.
Georgia didn’t know what to say, but Robert spoke.
“How come you’re so light? How many pounds are you?”
Would a man even care about this?
Robert told the answer to Georgia.
“80 pounds. I see that you are about 165 centimeters tall. 80 pounds is a symptom of malnutrition. Did you become so thin because you tried to lose weight? In fact, men’s aesthetic is not based on how thin you are, as long as your figure looked well-proportioned. You should eat more. Being too thin is not good for your body.”
Robert started rambling and Georgia asked him a question suddenly.
“Did you hug a lot of women so that you knew that my weight is considered thin?”
“No, your weight is so light that even if you press on body, I can’t feel any weight.”
Robert answered frankly, but Georgia felt embarrassed. In fact, she was just testing him. She wanted to test how far the relationship between him and Sierra had progressed, but the man answered so frankly, and she didn’t know how to continue the conversation.
The two continued hugging each other in silence. It took a long time before Georgia spoke.
“I didn’t try to lose weight. I became so thin because I had anorexia a year ago. At that time, you hired me chefs of various cuisines. You hired these people to come home and cook for me every day. However, my weight didn’t grow back. Later, I even slept for a year. During this period, I became thinner. After waking up, my anorexia was healed, and my appetite had regained a little. However, I still couldn’t gain weight. I used to be more than 90 pounds…”
Georgia talked about the past, but Robert was silent. He didn’t know how to talk about his lost memories with her. Those memories were things that he had never touched and understood.
He seemed to be listening to her talking about herself and another man. Moreover, he even felt that he was a little ridiculous because he was somehow jealous of the memories between his past self and Georgia.
“I guess you must have investigated about our past and about how we met. Before we met, you didn’t know I had been in jail at that moment. I’m the nominal murderer of Wendy in that car accident. When you met me, the name I had wasn’t my real name. I’m just a game dealer, entering your room to deal the cards for you. However, when we met for the first time, you kissed me in front of Jennifer to agitate her. From that onwards, our story begun…”
Perhaps, it was because of the atmosphere was too quiet and warm, Georgia even talked about the encounter between her and Robert.
“Later, you thought that I was the murderer of your sister in that car accident. You have been targeting me, taunting me, and dealing with me. You messed up my life. I even thought about going abroad and
leaving this place forever to escape from you. However, you didn’t let me go. During that time, I only had resentment and hatred towards you… But who knows what will happen later…?”
As Georgia was talking, her tears fell on Robert’s face, but she didn’t realize it. She continued talking.
“Later, you tried you best and found out the true murderer in that car accident. You even had to sit in a wheelchair for a year because you tried to protect me from being shot. You didn’t care. You found the evidence that my tutor had copied my work for me. You found the true murderer for me. We have been through so many things, and even our wedding was ready, but that wedding became a nightmare for both of us…”
When she said about the wedding, she was already sobbing uncontrollably. She couldn’t speak anymore, but she hugged Robert tightly and cried. Originally, there were only a few drops of tears on Robert’s face, but now, his face was full of tears. Some tears even dripped on his lips.
He tasted the tears and it tasted salty and bitter.
Suddenly, Robert began to doubt his decision.
Could it be true that he was once deeply in love with this woman?
If so, if his memory was recovered, would he really regret his decision to marry Sierra? Robert started to doubt about his decision.
