He hailed a cab and Andrea Jones and Anli got in, with Neal Williams buckling her seat belt as he had done in the past, and Anli even looked straight. The moment before closing the door, Andrea Jones suddenly reached out and took his hand.
Neal Williams was stunned and dropped his eyes to look at her.
She bit her lip lightly, “Can … we meet before I go?”
Neal Williams’ eyes darkened slightly, “Wait for me at home tonight, I’ll come to you.”
“Not tonight.” Andrea Jones shook her head, wanting to spend the night thinking about it, sorting everything out. From the time she’d found out he was married until now, she’d uniformly thought about it all from her own standpoint, but never from his.
So …
Tonight, she needs to rethink it again.
Neal Williams nodded, “Okay, first thing in the morning, I’ll meet you.”
Only then did Andrea Jones let go of the hand wrapped around his sleeve.
Anli sighed, “I can see that Mr. Williams really likes you. It’s just a pity that …”
Andrea Jones looked back without saying anything, Anli looked at her face and said, “Eh, Mr. Williams said he was going to divorce that woman, so you guys have a chance, don’t you? I have long seen that you and Mr. Williams are not simple.”
Anli’s words left Andrea Jones unsure of how to respond. Two years ago, Neal Williams and the wind and rain between them, also can not be understood by the next person, let alone a few words can be said clearly. But what has Neal Williams been through during the two years of separation? I only asked him how he was doing, but never asked him why he was doing so badly.
That night, Andrea Jones tossed and turned in bed as she thought about many things. Two years ago, two years later, Neal Williams’, Penny Brown’s. The luggage rested at her feet, untouched by her.
It was just as the sky was turning white when she squinted her eyes and fell asleep.
Early in the morning, Neal Williams had a very important meeting to attend. He had Zoey Baker check his flight, and the direct flight to New York was at 1:00 pm. After the meeting, it was already 11 o’clock, he did not dare to delay a moment, grabbed the car keys, hurried out of the office, straight to Andrea Jones in the neighborhood.
He doesn’t have to keep her, but, before she leaves, they should probably make it a little clearer.
The Hummer slid into the fast lane, and he placed his cell phone in the car and plugged in his Wolfsbane headset. While watching the road, he pressed the all-too-familiar number. The phone rang twice, and he thought it was going to be answered when suddenly, a bus sped out from the off-ramp.
“Bang–” There was a loud bang as the huge bus stopped and crashed into the Hummer.
“Squeal–” there was a harsh sound, the sound of tires scraping hard across the road. The Hummer was spun around in the street and ran into the guardrail in the middle of the road. The phone fell out of his palm, his eyes went dizzy, and Neal Williams fainted on the steering wheel with a bloodied face.
Andrea Jones was so drowsy that when her phone rang, she fumbled with her hands to listen. However, it only rang twice and then cut off, so she didn’t pay attention to it, nodded off, turned over and went back to sleep.
When I woke up again, it was after 12:00 and I was pushed awake by Sammy Jones.
Andrea Jones sat up from the bed in a daze as Sammy Jones tossed her clothes over, “Hurry up and change, it’s 12:00. Get something to eat, we have to go.”
“Go?” Andrea Jones’ sleepiness hadn’t quite dissipated.
“The flight is after 1:00! If we don’t leave soon, it’ll be too late!” Sammy Jones was so anxious, she saw her still huddled in bed, she urged, “Hurry up, brush your teeth, wash your face and come eat, don’t dawdle!
It took Andrea Jones a moment to come back to her senses. I can’t believe it’s already after 12:00?
“Sis!” Andrea Jones called out as she jumped out of bed at once. sammy Jones was walking out the door and was startled by her cry, turning her face to look at her suspiciously as she asked, “Has Neal Williams been here?”
“How did he get here?”
Andrea Jones thought for a moment and ran to the window in her bare feet. Lifted the curtain and looked down, but where was the car in the whole neighborhood?
Looking at her like this, Sammy Jones just thought she was sad to part with her heart, “Andrea, are you thinking of changing your mind?”
She didn’t respond to Sammy Jones’ words, but went back to bed and grabbed her phone. When she saw a missed call from Neal Williams, her mood lifted a little and she dialed it almost immediately. But, there …
What came through was one cold mechanical sound after another.
“Sorry, the number you dialed is turned off …”
At this moment, he turned off his phone? Why?
Sammy Jones took one look at her and knocked her on the head, “It’s too late, come on.”
“Oh, got it.” Putting the phone down, Andrea Jones went into the bathroom to wash up. sammy Jones went out to prepare lunch, and it was late to dawdle for a few more minutes.
After a quick wash and change of clothes, Andrea Jones took a couple of bites of food, and Sammy Jones came out of the room with the two men’s luggage, urging, “Hurry up, the taxi is downstairs, waiting for us!”
Andrea Jones didn’t move, but instead took her cell phone out and redialed the number. Listening to the mechanical sound, she was inexplicably frightened and unsettled.
“Sis, can we change the tickets?”
Sammy Jones had already walked to the door and was changing her shoes. Hearing her words, she paused in her movements and looked back at her. She pursed her lips and explained, “I still have some unfinished business, so I might be sorry to leave like this.”
Even without asking, Sammy Jones knew that what Andrea Jones called the matter was naturally related to Neal Williams. She mused and asked, “Are you sure you want to stay? Do you know exactly what you’re doing now? Andrea, you can do whatever you want, but, don’t you forget …”
“I know!” Andrea Jones cut off what her sister was about to say. She knew that he was married! He was carrying a marriage on his back and the responsibility of another woman! But, at least, she needed to know what kind of life he had been living for the past two years, and maybe … he had his struggles?
“Sister, there are some things I want to clarify. After I figure it out, I won’t hesitate to leave or stay in the future.”
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers. Andrea Jones watched as she opened the computer bag in her hand and pulled it out with a flourish. His face was always taut.
“Sister …” only thought Sammy Jones was angry with herself, Andrea Jones called out to her tentatively.
“What are you still standing there for? Don’t you have something to do? Go on!” Andrea Jones took a closer look and realized that Sammy Jones was checking out his ticket.
She smiled, then picked up her bag and prepared to go out. When she reached the door, Sammy Jones suddenly called her, “Andrea!”
“Hmm?”
“Is there something I haven’t told you yet?”
“What is it?”
“I actually knew two years ago that Neal Williams was married. I heard it from my colleague. However, she also told me that during the wedding vows, Neal Williams said ‘no’ to Penny Brown in front of all the guests. So … “Sammy Jones paused and looked at Andrea Jones’ stunned look, “I guess he doesn’t love Penny Brown very much.”
No man would throw the woman he loves into such a storm. Especially, Neal Williams!
Andrea Jones was shocked to hear that. If he was not willing to hold hands with her for life, then … why did they get married?
She’s so confused, so confused!
“Sis, I’ll go out first and we’ll talk on the phone this afternoon.” Andrea Jones didn’t want to wait a moment longer. She had to get to the bottom of it!
She put on her shoes and was about to leave the house when her cell phone in her bag banged. Thinking it must be Neal Williams, she immediately took it out and put it to her ear, smiling when she saw that it was him. However, the number that came through was …
“Andrea!”
“… Bonnie Williams?” said Andrea Jones, somewhat unsure.
“Thank goodness your phone is really still connected.”
“That’s the number I’ve been using since I got back home.” Andrea Jones explains.
“You’re really back in the country? You’re so good, you didn’t even call me when you got back home. Forget it, this is not the time to talk about it, you hurry to XX Hospital, Neal Williams is here.”
“Neal Williams is in the hospital?” Andrea Jones’ heart tightened and Sammy Jones turned his face to look at her. She had an anxious look on her face, “Okay, I’ll be right over, then, for now.”
“What’s wrong?” Sammy Jones asked.
“Neal Williams was in a car accident this morning, and I don’t know what’s going on now. Sis, I’ll go to the hospital first.”
“And don’t you panic.” Sammy Jones stood up and reassured her, “If it’s really serious, his sister isn’t so calm.”
That’s true, Bonnie Williams didn’t sound so flustered, at least, she was able to talk to her about it! But, she was still anxious. It’s not the first time he’s been in the hospital for a car accident!
Andrea Jones thought that maybe she would meet Penny Brown or Christina Sanchez at the hospital, and she didn’t flinch, she was prepared. However, when she arrived at the hospital, she saw only Bonnie Williams standing in the gallery.
After two years, Bonnie Williams is still as bright and attractive as ever. However, compared to two years ago, she seems to look more attractive again. This kind of brightness belongs to the woman in love, two years ago Bonnie Williams is definitely not found on the body.
Did she finally take Ingram Gray down? Or is … she finally thinking outside the box and falling in love with Sea Shen?
With two years, there are an infinite number of possibilities.
But, in this situation, Andrea Jones also really do not have the heart to catch up.
“Is Neal Williams okay?” She asked nervously, reaching out and pushing open the door of the hospital room. But there was no one in the hospital room, it was empty.
“You take it easy, he’s getting his shots, he’s got company.” Bonnie Williams pulled at her.
She was stunned.
Someone to keep him company? Is … Penny Brown keeping him company?
Bonnie Williams looked at her darkened expression, as if reading her mind, and asked, “You know about his marriage to Penny Brown?”
eyelashes, trembled slightly. Taking a deep breath, she lifted her head and nodded her head, and said in as calm a tone as possible, “Well, have listened to him …”
“It’s sad, isn’t it?”
Andrea Jones’ hand clenched and she was silent. As if to comfort and encourage, Bonnie Williams reached out and shook her hand, “I probably understand your feelings the most. When I found out Ingram got married, I felt like I was turning into a crazy person, looking at the world every day and feeling like it was black and depressed, like I was going to die at any moment …”
Andrea Jones’ eyes were red as she listened. This emotion, it turned out, was not something she was alone in suffering. Apparently, Bonnie Williams has pulled through strongly.
“Later, I realized that he was having a hard time. When I was having a bad time, he wasn’t much better off than I was.” Bonnie Williams said quietly. Thinking about those past, it seems that the heart still hurts for that man.
Andrea Jones looked at her and gently asked, “So, what about Neal Williams? How has he come through these past two years …?”
