Neal Williams returned to her apartment from her old home to find Andrea Jones sitting cross-legged on the carpet with her computer on the low table in front of her, flipping through the pages. Within days of her return from the U. S., she had begun to lose her mind. She’d gotten used to the fast pace of life in New York, so now she was looking forward to going out to work again. Of course, Neal Williams’ company was her first choice for both business and personal reasons.
“Looking at something?” Neal Williams sat down on the couch behind her, his eyes also directed to his laptop. She lazily leaned her back against his firm calf, “Looking at your company’s job postings, well, it seems the project department isn’t hiring.”
She was a little lost, so unhappy, and Neal Williams helped the back of her head, which was twisted in frustration, “Don’t move around, you’ll hit the couch later, it hurts.”
Andrea Jones twisted around, hunkered down with her legs together and rested her arms folded in his lap, just lying there. Her eyes lifted and she looked at him, “What should I do? Why don’t I just go to work for Lewis Brown? He’s actually not a bad place to work, I asked about the pay.”
“No!” Neal Williams didn’t hesitate and gave a direct veto, “Say, who have you seen whose wife doesn’t work at her husband’s company and goes to her ex-boyfriend’s company instead, huh?”
Andrea Jones, who was so natural when he said ‘husband’ and ‘wife’, punched him in the knee, “Who’s your wife?”
“You’re not, huh?” He pinched the tip of her nose, “You’re not and you can’t get away with it.”
Andrea Jones rubbed the tip of his nose, “So I can’t even go to Lewis Brown’s, so I’m really going to stay home? I can’t do that. I’m going to get sick of being idle every day.”
Neal Williams tugged on her hand, gesturing for her to get up. She then stood up, and with a loop of his long arms, Neal Williams held her in his arms and sat her on his lap. “Living with me makes you so bored that you won’t be happy to be idle for a few days?”
Andrea Jones laughs, wrapping her arms around his neck, “If you’re not happy, you don’t pick IG to go to work. I’m being self-reliant and saving money now to support my kids in the future.”
“Do I need you to raise my children?” Neal Williams smiled at her, curled her hair and played with the tips, and she said: “You stay patient for a few days, these days Garret Miller to move to Germany, naturally, to take a group of strong people. This side of the personnel department is starting to prepare, to boldly recruit people, but will not send a notice to the outside, on the secretly in the industry to dig people, so as not to let some opponents exploit the loopholes. You want to enter, naturally is eager to, the information is ready, I will bring you to the personnel department.”
“You brought it to me, how can they still not let me in? I’m afraid they’ll even waive the interview.” Andrea Jones laughs.
“Well, that can’t be helped. Unless you change your name, change your picture, or whoever brings the information to the past has a result.” In the company, gossip is always inevitable. Now who doesn’t know her Andrea Jones, don’t know her Andrea Jones?
“That’s true. But, don’t worry, I won’t embarrass you. These two years in New York weren’t for nothing.”
Neal Williams only laughed, “It’s better that way, but the project department is too tired, usually travel is still not rare, you can also do well these years, and then have children, I’m afraid it is to stick at home.”
When it comes to children and her future life, Andrea Jones’ heart is filled with longing. She wrapped her arms around Neal Williams’ neck and said softly, “If we do have kids, I’ll be so bored even if I don’t have any time to myself when I have another person in the house.”
“Why didn’t you ask me how I was doing when I went to the old house today?” Neal Williams suddenly said.
“… is afraid of upsetting you.” Andrea Jones looked at him and asked tentatively, “The elders in the family don’t approve, do they?”
She didn’t want to ask for fear that Neal Williams would feel pressure in his heart. The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public. The old man is a stubborn man, so many years everyone obeyed him, he has been spoiled by everyone, used to everyone obedience, so I want to divorce now, to take you back, he wanted to nod, but also can not face. After all, Penny Brown’s granddaughter-in-law is still his personal choice. But the old lady’s attitude is obviously different, for the past told me to marry Penny Brown, she may be feeling guilty. I haven’t been back much in the past two years, and her old man knows it well, so she doesn’t dare to push me any harder.”
“What about … others?”
The others are Christina Sanchez.
“Taken in by a word from my dad.”
“Really? What’s that?” Andrea Jones was curious.
“My dad said he would not divorce if my mom would make us both whole. Once my mom heard that, she behaved. So the only one who can cure my mom is still my dad.”
The two of them seem not to be getting divorced in the end, which is good, because after all, it was a complete family, and it’s not wise to separate them alive for the sake of someone who has already passed away. She believes that even the mother will feel relieved.
Neal Williams cupped her lower jaw and let the out-of-body woman break over so that her cheek was up against his own.
“I have to accompany you on a trip back to your cottage tonight.”
“What?”
“Gotta get you back to get that account book of yours.”
Andrea Jones raised her eyebrows slightly and Neal Williams smiled, “Uh huh, tomorrow at the Civil Service.”
“It’s not even two months yet!” Andrea Jones rejoiced.
“Penny Brown has it all figured out, so why wait any longer when it’s just mutual torture?” Neal Williams was in a happy mood. All he had to do was think that tomorrow he’d be back to being single, no! Tomorrow he will be able to tie her rightfully to his side, tied for life, his heart is full, the feeling of happiness really do not know what words to describe to be good. Life seems to have to be like this to be complete.
He used to think that there were so many, many things to do with her. To do all the things that any couple can do under the name of her husband.
Andrea Jones also smiled happily. The two of them have been together for so long, and now it’s easy to abandon everything and really be together, and she’s no longer squirming, and she doesn’t even have to ask him to marry her, she’s willing to just take the account book and marry him without saying a word.
He said, “After you register, it feels like there’s still a good deal to do, doesn’t it?”
“Which ones?” Andrea Jones asked, and she didn’t even have to think about it; she was incredibly relieved to have him in the world, all the things he would always take care of for himself.
“First of all, I have to take you to Mom’s place – not my mom, but your mom’s place, and of course, our mom in the future. And then you have to take a trip back to the old house.”
“It is.” Andrea Jones nodded, “They always have to meet.”
Neal Williams asked her gently, “Are you ready for this?”
“Yes …”
“Don’t be afraid, although grandpa is a bit fierce, but will not eat people. Grandma is actually very soft-hearted. Anyway, no matter what you hide behind me, they can’t do anything to you, you know?”
“What’s it like to hide behind your back? Then they won’t see me anymore. Why don’t we be generous and go over there, and then if I really look for you for help, you can help me out.”
“Fine, whatever you say.”
By dinner time, Neal Williams had taken Andrea Jones back to her small flat with her. At this hour, the flat was still bustling with people who knew each other and those who didn’t, and Andrea Jones nodded and smiled and greeted them all with great pleasure.
Neal Williams held her and followed her when she met someone she knew, and he called out to her how she called out to people.
“Yo, Andrea-chan, this is the boyfriend? He’s handsome.” An aunt from next door asked with a smile, her smiling eyes fixed on Neal Williams.
“Yes, Auntie.” Andrea Jones replied good-naturedly.
The aunt laughed even more happily, “at the beginning and Charleen said, her daughter will certainly find a good family. She still worries so much, every day she is looking for a match for you and your sister. You were forced to go on a blind date, right?”
After two years, those past events are already like a lifetime ago in retrospect. But someone doesn’t feel that way. The heart still remembers when she went on a blind date behind his back, and if Sammy Jones hadn’t told him, he might still be in the dark.
Upstairs, Andrea Jones took out the key and opened the door. Neal Williams kept quiet and when she got in, she turned her face to him and asked, “What’s wrong? Just followed the caller was okay enthusiastic.”
Neal Williams caught her in his arms and looked down at her, “Speaking of blind dates, I think you and your date went to the movies, didn’t you? You didn’t even get to see a movie with me.”
“You’re still jealous now, huh? That’s so old, if you want to go back to the old days, I’ll bring up all the things you did with Penny Brown.” Andrea Jones is no slouch either.
Neal Williams really felt bad for her, too, and nibbled on her lip. Indeed, to reopen old scores, his sins are much deeper than hers, there is no comparison. “Okay, no rehashing, you go to the movies with me next time.”
“I don’t blame you for not watching the movie with you, but you were late for the appointment, and I fell asleep watching it.”
“You still remember the past na.”
“It’s clear.” Many very small details, she remembers clearly.
Neal Williams cupped her face and just kissed her delicately until she couldn’t take it anymore, Andrea Jones pushed him and gasped, “No more, no more, I’m here to get the account book …”
Neal Williams let her off the hook for now, “Go find it.” Anyway, they had all the time in the world.
She was rummaging through her bedroom when Neal Williams lounged on her bed. Her bed was soft and oozing with girlie scent, and Neal Williams looked at the ceiling and then around.
“I come here fairly rarely, how many times have I been here?” Neal Williams struck up a conversation with her as he inhaled deeply the smell of her in the air.
“Not many times.” Andrea Jones also did not turn around, “the account book are my sister to help me stuffed, you do not rush, I look well.”
Neal Williams looked at her busy back, thinking that she is busy to marry himself, heart happy. The back of his head dipped into her soft little pillow and said, “I’m not in a hurry, you take your time looking, there’s still a night to go.”
Andrea Jones just ignored him and kept looking. After rummaging through the closet, she got the account book at the bottom, “Here it is! I found it!”
Her eyes shone brightly and she turned around and shook the saucy book to show off with him, the sweat seeping out of her head and those eyes were as crystal clear. Perhaps it was because she had just bent over too long, and a light layer of pink surfaced on her face. This look is really too vivid, Neal Williams to love into the bones.
The big palm patted the position on the side of her body, indicating her to lie down. She is immersed in pleasure, and just rummaging around is really tired, so she simply tilted her head and fell down lazily like this. The head was resting on his arm, and he turned over and held her over, lying on his chest.
