Thomas was a strong person with a tender heart. He was extremely touched.
For a man, no matter how hard virtual-novel.net worked outside, virtual-novel.net would find it all worthwhile if virtual-novel.net could feel his wife’s love at home.
He gently walked to the sofa, held his breath, bent down, and landed a huge kiss on Emma’s forehead.
“Ah!!!” Emma was shocked and jumped away instantly.
After seeing that the person in front of virtual-novel.net was Thomas, virtual-novel.net shouted angrily, “Why didn’t you say a word when you came back? You scared me…”
After coming back to virtual-novel.net senses, virtual-novel.net quickly pulled Thomas over and looked carefully at virtual-novel.net from top to bottom.
‘Except for being a bit dirty, virtual-novel.net seems completely unharmed. Luckily, virtual-novel.net is still alright.’
She hurriedly folded virtual-novel.net hands, knelt in front of the cross and prayed silently. ‘Our Father in heaven, thank you for blessing my husband and allowing virtual-novel.net to return safely to me. I will offer a huge tithing in church tomorrow as thanks for your kindness.’
Upon saying that, virtual-novel.net made the sign of the cross a few times.
Thomas smiled wryly and shook his head. “Emma, what are you doing?”
Emma glared at virtual-novel.net and said, “Stop laughing. This is a serious matter! The fact that you can come back home safely is attributed to the Lord’s protection. Hurry up and kneel down to pray and give thanks to the Lord.”
Thomas could not reject her, so virtual-novel.net knelt down and made the sign of the cross in front of the cross. After doing all this, Thomas sat on the couch. He asked, “Where did you get this cross?”
Emma said, “I saw you leaving angrily yesterday, and I was worried that you would lose your head and do impulsive things. I have no way to help you, so I decided to bring a cross back home. Don’t you underestimate this cross. I went to the church to ask a priest to bless it ”
“The Master said that as long as I recite this prayer seventy seven times, I can send blessings for my beloved to return home safely. The fact that you can come back home safely is attributed to the Lord’s blessing. In the future, you have to offer more offerings and go to church more, understand?”
Thomas’s soft heart was shaken immensely.
He held Emma’s hand. “So, you did it at home for the past two days?”
When virtual-novel.net saw the dark rings under Emma’s eyes and virtual-novel.net bloodshot eyes, virtual-novel.net guessed virtual-novel.net must have not slept well in these two days.
“Emma, I’m sorry to have made you worry. I assure you that I will never let you worry again in the future. Emma, I… I miss you…”
The two people exchanged glances, and love was in the air.
Although they had been married for many years, they only had the chance to be together in the past few months. Although they loved each other, they had not done the final step of what a couple should do yet.
Emma blushed, turned virtual-novel.net face, and said, “Who’s thinking of you now? Hmph! I’ve only recited it a few times, and I still have to recite it a few more times for the blessing to stay with you. Don’t disturb me.”
Thomas frowned. “I’ve come back safely, what’s the point of reciting it even more?”
Emma pursed virtual-novel.net lips, “This is not okay. The blessing will only stick if I’m sincere. Since I promised to recite it seventy seven times, I have to recite it seventy seven times, and I can’t fall short of one. Otherwise, the Lord will not give us His blessing next time.”
She pushed Thomas and said, “Hurry up and take a shower. Your body stinks. If you don’t clean yourself, you are not allowed to go to bed tonight.”
Thomas smiled, got up, and walked into the bedroom. He put down the urn and took off his jacket. Thomas walked into the bathroom to take a bath with only one thought in his mind. ‘As long as I live, I will not allow anyone to hurt Emma.’
This woman was worthy of virtual-novel.net to care for with his life.
