Chapter 172
After the fire, Silver Beach was naturally ruined.
Fortunately, each other's injuries were not serious. The blood that Walker Herbert saw was Dana Roosevelt's skin trauma, not with the baby.
"The child is healthy, both the mother and child are safe. But whether it will have a deep impact. It is still uncertain."
This was what the doctor said to Walker Herbert. The situation sounds neither good nor bad. The man had been guarding Dana since the injury eased.
Since Dana Roosevelt's accident, her mental state had been very unstable. Even during the coma, she had yelled several times, and it was Walker Herbert who calmed her down by being gentle to her.
Finally, the next day Dana Roosevelt woke up. The first thing she did was to grasp Walker Herbert's sleeves and asked, "How is my baby? Is my baby okay?"
Walker Herbert looked at the sorrow that her eye had not been able to dissipate and touched her head with pity.
"Everything is fine."
So she breathed a sigh of relief, slowly relaxed, and suddenly felt something. "Where are we?"
She came out of his arms and looked around subconsciously. Walker Herbert looked at her quietly, and said lightly, "Our new home."
When he said, 'New Home', Dana Roosevelt's heart shook. For Dana Roosevelt, who had never felt the warmth of a family since childhood, the word 'home' was as precious as a treasure to her. Walker Herbert said, 'our home', and she could hardly be unmoved.
"Then how about Silver Beach?"
"Burnt," the man said in a low tone, and sat down with her on the bed, looking at her.
"But if you don't want to give it up, I can find someone to restore it."
Dana Roosevelt pursed her mouth and said nothing. She was really reluctant. After all, it was the place where they lived together for the first time. There were a lot of memories in it.
However, Dana Roosevelt did not spoke about this words.
She looked up and said, "Where are we? It feels bigger than Silver Beach, isn't it a villa?"
"Well, Herbert-Roosevelt Villa."
Dana Roosevelt's heartbeat missed another beat. What he meant was to name the house after the two of them. This was their common home, wasn't it? Dana Roosevelt suppressed the emotion in her heart and looked at the man with tears.
"Is there's nothing wrong with that?"
Although during that time in Silver Beach, when she was unconscious. The last few seconds, she had the impression that Walker Herbert rescued her.
The fire was so big that even she thought she was dead. But this man fell from the sky like an angel, and for a second she suspected that she had hallucinations.
"Why are you so stupid, it was such a big fire? You could have been hurt!" Dana Roosevelt angrily looked at Walker Herbert.
The man accidentally poked her finger away.
"It's nothing big, as long as you're okay."
After this incident, Dana Roosevelt became more devoted to Walker Herbert. As for men like Walker Herbert, love or affection would depend on the person. If a man cannot even risk his life for you, then the question of whether he loves you or not, need not be said.
For the meantime, he stayed in Herbert-Roosevelt Villa.
Until one day, Walker Herbert suddenly had an urgent assignment to go to Germany.
Dana Roosevelt was a little unhappy when she heard the news, so she ran to his study and sat quietly. In the study, he was working on his desk when he saw the woman protesting in silence. He puts down the pen in his hand and asked, "What's going on?"
Dana Roosevelt wore this pink rabbit pajamas, did not speak, proudly turned her head and 'hummed' a cry.
"Who is messing with you again?"
"Who else can?"
She protested, "Your body just recovered and now you are going to Germany. You are not afraid that you will be trapped there like those refugees!"
When Walker Herbert heard this he thought she was angry because of this and knew that she cared about him, so he smiled and asked her, "If I can't come back, will you be worried?"
"Of course I will be worried!" Dana Roosevelt endured, but she still had a feeling that she couldn't bear it.
She gritted her teeth and stomped her feet. In the end, she ran to Walker Herbert's behind and hugged him tightly. "I don't care, I won't let you go."
He had been injured, how could he be sent to work again? She cares about him, even if she was a little unreasonable, she made the man felt cute.
Walker Herbert smiled lightly, "It won't be very hard. I'll be back in three days, alright?"
"You said it's only for three days?"
"Well, three days."
"It's pretty much the same."
Dana Roosevelt felt that he would not be exhausted and sick for three days, and she could accept it, so she let go and prepared to leave. She hadn't straighten up her body and was immediately pulled back by the man against him.
"That's it?"
Dana Roosevelt pursed her lips, "Otherwise what do you want to do?"
"Hug, shouldn't it be kissing next?"
"Let's take your time to do what you need to do right now, I'll leave you first." Dana Roosevelt quickly slipped away, Walker Herbert looked at her as she left the room, and the corners of his lips hooked upwards.
The moment she went out of the room, his smile slowly faded.
"How is the investigation?" The words were spoken to his assistant on the other end of the phone.
Howard Clarkson's voice was very respectful, and he gave a report, "The fire was indeed a deliberate arson, but it was caused by a quarrel between a rich second-generation couples on the sixth floor. It has nothing to do with your wife and the Roosevelt family."
"Sure?"
Howard Clarkson helped confirm, "It's true."
Although it was an accident, it also made Walker Herbert felt very unhappy.
Sure enough, he was not afraid of opponents. But teammates like pigs. No matter how high-end apartments were, there were all kinds of people living in them. Even in the wealthy area, they were unavoidable.
"Let's check those people." Although Walker Herbert didn't want to clean them up, intentionally or unintentionally, letting them suffer in Progress City in the future was still in line with his style of behavior.
Dare to affect his wife and child, it was daunting.
"Well, I have checked it, and I will send the information to your mailbox."
When Dana Roosevelt woke up the next morning, Walker Herbert was said to have gone to the airport. She felt ashamed. She had set the alarm clock and was going to send him off early in the morning.
But her alarm clock did not sound off. "Strange, it was clearly set up yesterday, so why it did not work today?"
Dana Roosevelt looked at the missing alarm clock setting in her phone and sat on the bed for a while.
At this moment, the servant opened the door and came in, "Madam, are you looking for something?"
Seeing that she's up and did not get out of bed.
Dana Roosevelt returned to her senses.
"Miss Hussey should be here soon. You can clean up and get up to eat."
"Okay."
Because Walker Herbert was afraid that Dana Roosevelt would be bored at home alone, he called Hussey to accompany her.
Miss Hussey also got up surprisingly early today, and the red Maserati drove in, walked out the car and wore a stunning red dress.
"Little munchkin!"
Hearing that there was an accident in Silver Beach, she immediately called Dana Roosevelt. But she really want to talk about it once they meet today.
When Hussey saw her, she was extremely worried, "Are you okay? Are there any injuries? Let me see!"
Dana Roosevelt smiled and shook her head, "No, I'm not injured, I'm alright."
"I was scared to death." Hussey breathed a sigh of relief when she said that she was okay and patted her chest.
"Oh, Walker Herbert asked me to tell you that he turned off your alarm clock this morning so you don't have to accompany him."
It turned out that he was the one.
"It wasn't me, Dana Roosevelt," Hussey said, taking her hand and sitting on the sofa.
"The professor is too kind to you, isn't he? Although no one knew it, I still know that he saved you regardless of his life!"
Listening to Hussey's praise, Dana Roosevelt looked at her vivid brows and didn't refute it. Instead, she lowered her head quietly and softly, and touched her stomach.
Hussey noticed her movement and immediately followed her. "Hey."
Dana Roosevelt didn't understand what she meant by making this sound, "What's wrong."
"I think I was still squatting on the ground and playing in the mud, then suddenly I am going to be a godmother in the blink of an eye." Hussey said, flooding with infinite maternal glory, and she continued caressing Dana Roosevelt's belly.
Dana Roosevelt couldn't laugh nor cry, slapped her hand away.
"Get your hands off of my belly, it's not like you're the one who's giving birth."
Dana Roosevelt asked, "So when are you going to fall in love?"
Now that Dana Roosevelt had removed herself from the list, finding someone that loves her, and having a baby. She certainly hopes Hussey would also find her other half.
But when it comes to this topic, Hussey directly turns on the unreasonable mode, covering her ears with both hands. "Alright don't listen to Dana Roosevelt's chanting."
Dana Roosevelt looked at her and thought she was hopeless. As soon as Hussey saw her expression she immediately changed the subject, she leaned over with a smile. "Hey. What do you plan to do about your military training? You are going to report tomorrow, and you can't postpone your training. You can't drag your stomach to train, can you?"
Dana Roosevelt felt she's going to have a headache after Hussey mentioned it.
"Yes," Dana Roosevelt said. "It was originally discussed with the troops, but then something happened."
"So now I am looking for someone to train for me. The school will arrange to get me someone who doesn't know my classmates, and the school will not reveal it. This should be fine, right?"
"Okay! Dana Roosevelt, you are so cool!" Hussey was comical when she heard it, and stabbed her with the elbow.
"Even the military training has someone to do it for you. It's great to have a husband as your professor!"
