Chapter 17
“No, it’s not possible…”
“Sure!”
Carter hadn’t finished speaking when he was interrupted by Beatrice, who had been eavesdropping at the hospital door and burst in.
Beatrice was already troubled by the loss of one son and daughter–in- law, and now she was about to lose a second daughter–in–law, which made Beatrice even more anxious, to the point where she had blisters. in her mouth.
Beatrice couldn’t believe it when Freya actually proposed to Carter, this was great news for Beatrice!
“Mom!”
Carter never expected that, even at this time, Beatrice would come out
and cause trouble.
“Carter, our family has already let Helen down, we can’t let Freya down again. Mom has agreed to this, so when Freya is discharged from the hospital, you two can go get married!”
There is no way, my wife only had Helen!
Carter’s face also darkened completely. He had already hurt Helen once, he couldn’t continue to hurt her, let alone marry someone else.
No matter what you think, I just want Helen!

Chapter 17
Carter!
“Bang!”
At this moment, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and the person who came in was panting.
“Carter, there is news about Helen!”
“Really?”
| In an instant, Carter, who had a gloomy expression on his face,
suddenly smiled, and immediately he didn’t care about anything else. and rushed out.
Carter, you stop right there!
No matter how loudly Beatrice called behind him, Carter never turned
around.
***
Southern, on a certain island.
Helen underestimated her physical fitness.
She was seasick for two days during the three–day voyage, and the remaining day she slept heavily.
From getting off the boat to the Fletcher family, she was carried on Elliott’s back the whole way.
After lying in bed for almost half a month, Helen finally gathered her strength and carefully examined her and Elliott’s new home.
Chapter 17
The new house is located halfway up the mountain, it is a two–story small building, both inside and outside the house are covered with tiles, filled with necessary furniture and appliances.
In front and behind the house were planted with fruit trees and vegetables.
Next to the fish pond was a fence, inside of which were some chickens, ducks, and geese.
And next to the fish pond, Elliott was wearing short sleeves and shorts, sitting on a small stool leisurely fishing.
Seeing Helen approaching, he quickly took a new small stool for her to sit down: “How are you feeling?”
These days, perhaps due to not being used to the local food and water, Helen not only had no appetite, but also lost a lot of weight.
Elliott looked on with heartache, asking around for various methods. every day and finding ways to cook for her.
Now she finally had the energy to come downstairs and be with him.
Helen nodded and sat down next to him, “Much better.”

These days, Elliott finally let go of the worry he had been carrying, he held Helen’s hand and rubbed it, looking a bit regretful.
I wish I hadn’t chosen this island when I was sent on an overseas
assignment.
Elliott was a foreign correspondent assigned by the national press office, constantly traveling abroad. This time, he chose to be stationed on an island, always delivering the latest news updates.

At that time, he chose to stay on the island for another reason, which was that Helen had not agreed to him yet.
At that time, Elliott was thinking that if she didn’t agree to him, he would go to the farthest place from her, so he wouldn’t see her again. and wouldn’t lose control to snatch her back.
Who knew that just as he had signed his name on the list for an overseas assignment, the matchmaker on the other end informed him that Helen had agreed to marry him.
He has already experienced two of life’s three greatest joys.
But as happy as he was back then, now he is equally regretful.
He didn’t expect Helen to suffer from the change in environment after coming to the island.
Helen held his hand back and smiled.
What’s the big deal, I always had to adapt, let alone that staying on the island is your dream. As your fiancee, I naturally had to fully support your dream.
Speaking of his fiancee, Elliott wrapped his arms around her and said, “By the way, we should start preparing for our wedding.”
Because the island they were on was very special, it was difficult for outsiders to easily come ashore. In addition, both sets of parents were not in good health, so this time their wedding was not attended by both families. However, they still sent them generous dowries and gifts.
When the wedding was mentioned, Helen blushed and deliberately asked him, “Why did you suddenly think of the wedding?”
Chapter 17
Elliott chuckled softly, gently kissed her forehead, his eyes filled with
intense love.
Because I wanted to marry you and make you my wife right away.
