The car droved off into the night. After quite some time, the two cars stopped in front of a yard.

Stepping out from the first car was Ryan, who then casually closed the door behind him with a smile.

There were also a few others who got out from the other car. Seeing Ryan's smile, they curiously asked, "Why are you smiling?"

"Oh, nothing. The couple has been separated for so long that they're crying in each other's arms. Don't worry about it. Let's go in and rest for a while."

What Ryan said was partially true, and Sharon did tear up a little, but not till the extent of crying uncontrollably.

She was embraced in Stanley's arms, sobbing and tearing up a little, thus wetting his shirt, but Stanley didn't mind at all and instead held her tightly, allowing her to release her emotions.

"I miss you!"

Sharon buried her face in his chest and choked on her words in between sobs.

"Yes, me too."

"How are the children?"

"They're fine; they miss you very much too. Don't worry about them."

"Okay."

Sharon cried again for a little while more; she felt she shouldn't cry that much as it was embarrassing, she wiped her tears and snot and got out of his embrace.

It was pretty dark in the car, and Sharon could not see Stanley clearly. She stretched out her hand and caressed his face. "I have a lot to say to you."

"You have all the time in the world to tell me when we go back. Every detail, nothing less; I want to hear it all."

Sharon broke into a smile. "Mm, okay."

As soon as the two finished talking, a light shined in through the window. And then Ryan shouted from outside with the flashlight in his hand, "Come in if you've finished talking. Let's arrange tomorrow's schedule."

Sharon was just about to ask Stanley something, but she froze as she saw Stanley's hair in the light.

Stanley's pitch-black hair had now... turned half white.

Stunned, Sharon thought that she must have seen it wrongly, or that it was because of the lighting; she blinked her eyes again, only to discover that his hair was indeed whitish gray.

Sharon's lips tremble: "Wh-what's going on?"

Sighing, Stanley held her finger. "I'll tell you about this later. Let's get out of the car first."

He carried her out soon after he got out of the car. Sharon was still stunned and couldn't react for quite a while.

After entering the house, Stanley spoke to Ryan. Later on, Stanley turned around and carried her into the room.

The room was not big; there was a bed, two chairs, but not much extra furniture. He put her down on the bed, kneeled in front of her, caressed her knees with both hands, and asked with a frown, "What happened to your legs?"

Sharon held his hand as she came back to her senses, and hurriedly asked, "What about you? What happened to your hair?"

Pursing his lips, Stanley said, "One month after Shawn abducted you, I just woke up one day to find my hair like this."

Pointing to his hair, he raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Actually, it's not that bad; some actors even purposely dye their hair with this color, as it's a trend."

Sharon knew that he was comforting himself. She felt a little sorry and bent down to hold his face. "Why did your hair suddenly turn white? Did you worry too much about me?"

"Of course I was worried. You're my wife; You're the most important person in my life. If I don't worry about you, who else should I be worried about?"

Sharon couldn't hold it in any longer and burst into tears, full-blown wailing.

He was only 35, but half of his hair had already turned white. Sharon was so sad for him that she held onto his neck started wailing.

In an attempt to console her, Stanley patted her back. "Alright, alright, don't cry."

Sharon couldn't stop herself.

"It's just a little grey hair, not a big deal. My hair will be black again in the future." Stanley continued to comfort her.

Sharon sobbed and shook her head. He was lying to her; if his hair had turned white, how could it possibly turn black again? Her heart ached for him.

"Don't cry. If you continue to cry, Ryan and the others would laugh."

The house wasn't soundproof, so Sharon's crying could be heard outside.

"Good girl, don't cry. You've been crying all the way from just now. Do you have so many tears to cry?"

Stanley lifted her face from his chest and used the sleeves of his shirt to wipe her tears. He couldn't care less if she soiled his shirt.

How is it possible that women could have so many tears? It was like a never-ending stream.

Sharon pricked up her ears as she tried to listen to what was happening outside. There was complete silence. Did Ryan and the others got stunned listening to her wailing sounds?

Her face turned a little red.

Stanley let out a sigh of relief when he saw her stop.

She had already calmed down. She held his hands tightly and told him, "My legs were injured when I jumped off the cliff. It was a little serious and I didn't get timely treatment and rest, so I couldn't stand up until now."

It seemed like he was starting to be worried so she quickly added, "But don't worry, I'll be fine soon. I'm recovering, in fact, now I'm able to take a few steps myself."

"Hmm," Stanley said in a low voice, not revealing any emotions, but held her tightly in his arms and said in a hoarse voice, "After you go home, you'll have a good rest." "Alright." Sharon felt a sourness in her throat.

"You have to stay at home for half a month, and you're not to go anywhere."

"No, I can."

"Don't be wilful in the future. You must discuss everything with me."

"Right." Sharon felt as though her eyes had turned red yet again.

"Don't be reckless with your life. You are the most important person in our family. Without you, we will not be a family; without you, I don't know what to do..." Sharon buried her face in his chest and tightly grabbed onto his shirt with her trembling fingers. With a hoarse voice, she said, "Okay, I'll listen to you from now on." Then, Stanley held her extremely tight, so tight that she almost couldn't breathe.

Finally, he had found her.

Finally, he could hold her like this again.

He held her so tight she felt a little pain. He couldn't wait to have his way with her again. Sharon didn't dare to make a sound and could only endure it with a smile, allowing him to continue hugging her. After a long time, she opened her mouth and said, "Hey... I can't breathe."

Stanley's body froze and he let go of her.

Sharon quickly drew a few deep breaths and looked at her lover's dark eyes. After thinking for a while, she drooped her head and said honestly, "I'm sorry."

Stanley raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean by 'sorry'?"

"I'm sorry that I wanted my own way. I'm sorry that I didn't discuss it with you beforehand when I went to see Shawn. I caused us to be separated for so long and caused you to worry about me." Sharon apologized wholeheartedly. "It's all my fault. Scold me. I really know that I was wrong this time."

Stanley stared at her for two seconds and sighed. "Sharon, you are not wrong. I don't blame you."

"Why don't you blame me? I was too impulsive. I didn't think through when things happen. If I had discussed with you prior to meeting Shawn, maybe these things would not have happened." She kept blaming herself.

But Stanley said...
