When I Die, I Will Still Keep You in My Heart

I couldn't be bothered to joke with him.

"So... Help me make an appointment for a physical examination." I stopped asking and requested instead.

Sam Smith refused. "No, now everyone is going through the formal procedure, and you can just make an appointment on the Internet, where you can find all reliable doctors."

I laughed at myself and lowered my head. "Oh, then forget it."

Friday was for the high school reunion. I went with Sam Smith, and Joseline Sampson was also there.

As soon as Sam and I entered the door, everyone focused on us.

"Sam Smith, Zoila Perry, why are you so late?" Every year, the class reunion was organized by the class monitor. When he saw us, he quickly came over to greet us.

Everyone saw that I was holding Sam's arm tightly, as if we were a loving couple.

But I clearly felt that there was an unfriendly look from Joseline Sampson not far away in the crowd.

I smiled with delight at her and then hugged him tighter.

At the dining table, Joseline Sampson specially came to Sam Smith and said, "Sam, since you’re working in the hospital, can you help me make an appointment for a physical examination?"

Sam Smith paused obviously. He put down his chopsticks and smiled. "Why did you come to me for that?"

"Well, I was just thinking that it would be more convenient when you work in the hospital. We've known each other for so many years and can’t we be friends instead of lovers?"

Joseline Sampson didn't care about the strange looks at the dinner table at all and said, "Okay? It's just a small favor. I haven't seen you for three years, and you will help me when you come back, won’t you?"

I caught a glimpse of his clenched fists under the table and withdrew my gaze silently.

The next second, Sam's voice rang out in the private room.

"Okay, I'll make an appointment on Monday for you, and I'll recommend you some doctors then."

"Thank you so much. Dr. Smith is so considerate! Anyone who marries you is so lucky! Unfortunately, I don't know when it'll be my turn."

As she spoke, she kept glancing at me.

I hung my hands on the table and stared at the remaining cold meat on the plate. It tasted insipid in my mouth.

The moment Sam Smith agreed to Joseline Sampson's request, I felt a burning pain on my face.

He made feel ashamed.

I couldn't be bothered to argue with Joseline Sampson, so I turned to look at Sam Smith, who was helping her make an appointment for a physical examination.

After a long time, I said softly, "You can help her with the physical examination,, but you can't help me, right?"

Sam didn't hear the sadness in my tone.

He just paused and turned his head in confusion. "Didn't I ask you to make an appointment two days ago? Didn't you do that?"

I shook my head.

"You can do it next week, because they’re all engaged this week."

All of a sudden, my eyes were moist. I lowered my head to look at the plate, but I couldn't eat anything.

This week's physical examination doctors were all engaged but Joseline Sampson could still help Joseline to make an appointment.

As Dr. Smith's wife... I was refused completely.

Well, how ridiculous it was!

After getting married to Sam Smith for three years, I finally felt that there was a whole world gap between us.

It turned out that he couldn't feel my emotions at all, nor could he detect the changes in my body.

At this time, the atmosphere at the table was a little strange.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the class monitor quickly came out to mediate.

"Well... Sam Smith, it was you who introduced my father-in-law to the doctor in your hospital last time. I haven't had time to thank you properly. Come on, let me propose a toast to you."
