He looked at her calmly and uttered, “Emerald, I am a man.” What did this mean? Was he not a man if he didn’t imprison his wife? She looked at him with no fear. He put on a jacket and said without turning back, “Emerald, it was really embarrassing to put my woman in a dangerous situation again and again and let my woman save me at the last minute. For the first time, I felt that I was a moron. From now on, I will not allow you to be hurt. Do you understand?” Maybe because he seldom said things like that, he walked out of the bedroom immediately after finishing. Emerald stared at the door for a while and touched the cold bracelet, and then she took a deep breath and stood up with her hands pressing on the bed. She realized that she liked him more and more.The doctor advised her to do some exercise so that her leg could recover sooner. She didn’t let the servants help her, and she walked to the dining room alone to have breakfast. Then she walked slowly to the living room. Harvey was sitting on the sofa, with piles of files on the table beside him. Emerald walked to him and saw that they were some heavy planning books. “My lady, this is the plan book that several event planning companies provided for us.” Harvey opened one of the books and showed it to her, “you can have a look. The Commander has given me the limited authority to plan this wedding.” Emerald still felt embarrassed about what he said. Patrick relied on Harvey so much that he even let him plan his wedding. She thought that this was something that the women were good at. Harvey also gave her a certificate of authorization, and he smiled, “my lady, if you’re free, you can prepare with me the things on the certificate.” Emerald had a look and found out that all the things were listed in the certificate, including the meal, the guests, the location, and the wine. There was a clear sign of Patrick Lewis in the bottom and the seal of the Commander. It seemed that Patrick regarded the wedding as some military order. It was all right. After helping Harvey for two hours, she finally thought of one thing and hastily asked,” what about the wedding dress? I want to see what it’s like.” When she lived in the slum, she had seen weddings before. The bride didn’t wear a white wedding dress in the Alliance, and they wore a beige tulle dress with green trims, which represented resources and hopes. Those dresses were not as complicated or elegant as the wedding dresses on Earth, but they were still pretty and simple. She had never thought that one day she could wear a wedding dress here. However, Harvey was surprised about this question, “I don’t have authorization in this.” “How could he have time to choose my wedding dress if he is busy all day?” She suddenly was surprised. Harvey smiled, “When I met the Commander and showed him all the designs, he took the catalog of the wedding dress and said that he would choose the wedding dress for his wife.” Emerald was speechless. Choose? She knew that man was all about having fun. Although Patrick wouldn’t change himself for someone beautiful, it was still impossible for a straight man like him to ignore the appearances of women. Whenever she got dressed up, he would always be more enthusiastic and excited. And the only thing he cared about at this wedding was what she would wear. Should she be happy about it?**** Harvey left after lunch. Emerald just sat on the couch because she didn’t want to move. Since Patrick didn’t let her sleep much last night, she still felt tired now. She fell asleep while watching TV. Then she felt that someone had put a coat on her. She opened her eyes and saw that Patrick sat on the couch in the uniform. She thought it was still noon. “The humans in the labor camp on the Zerg planet were all sent back to their hometown.” He said gently with his low voice, “I have acknowledged Zach as a martyr and given his family a pension. Other vanguards were treated the same way, and their families don’t need to worry about money anymore.” Emerald grabbed his collar after hearing his words. He carried her in his arms and walked to the main bedroom, “how can you sleep on the couch?” “Thank you.” She felt sad. Although the pension and the reputation couldn’t bring the heroes back, at least they could bring honor to their families and made them relieved. “You don’t need to thank me.” He walked to the side of the bed, put her down, and lay beside her, “you need to recover sooner so that you can repay me. Sleep now.” He kissed her behind her ears, and she really fell asleep in his warm arms. It was evening when she woke up. Emerald saw the cold room and knew it was not a dream with Patrick just now. He was energetic enough, so he didn’t need to sleep with her all day. She didn’t want him to either because that meant he would be even more energetic and wilder at night after a rest at day. She went to the living room but didn’t see him. The servant said that he went to the training field. Emerald knew that the military police guarded the mansion, and they were living in a small building beside the mansion. The first floor of the building was a huge training field to practice boxing and shooting. These military policemen followed Patrick from Planet Hope to Freedom city. The white building they lived in was as cold and hard as the one they lived in before. In the twilight, Emerald walked along the dark alley and felt a little bit lonely. When she reached the training field at the end of the alley, the door opened automatically, and the bright white light shone in like water. The square training field was over 300 m², and the wood floor was glistening under the light. Over 20 military policemen, who were half-naked and wearing gray sweatpants, were standing casually in the training field and watching the boxing in the center. All of them had a strong tan body with muscles, which were covered by sweat. Their skin was glimmering under the light. Emerald was familiar with this kind of exercise when she was trained in the Phoenix, so she was not very surprised. She ignored all of these strong men and looked directly at the center of the field.She almost lost her breath.
