Gwen Fox’s voice made Ham Rodriguez sober up a lot, he didn’t reach out again, his eyes stared at Yolanda Taylor with a deadpan look, if it wasn’t for Gwen Fox stopping in front of Yolanda Taylor’s eyes, he probably would have already reached out and strangled her to force her to talk.
Yolanda Taylor glanced at the whip he was holding in his hand and her eyes moved slightly, “I don’t know where she is, she gave this to me before she left the last time she asked me to go to the stable.”
That day Heather and her went to the horse farm, just arrived at the storage room, Heather opened his locker, and handed her this horse whip: “I see that your horsemanship is good, this whip is for you, it’s not a good thing, if you don’t want it, it’s good to sell it and throw it away.”
At that time, she was shocked, the whip is clearly inlaid with gemstones, and the feel is very good, a look knows that it is specially made, just because of the gemstones inlaid above, this whip is also worth a lot of money.
Yolanda Taylor didn’t dare to take it, “I don’t lack money.”
“It’s fine, take it, you haven’t taken the bet we made last time, take this as interest.”
Yolanda Taylor could see that the whip was not simple, although she reached out and took it, she had no intention of using it.
She was just going to save it for Heather so that when she remembered wanting it later, it wouldn’t be gone.
Just did not expect that she just put it inside the cabinet, aside Heather opened her mouth, “This horse whip is the year I was eighteen years old, snatched it back from someone else’s hands, so many years, I can’t throw it or give it to someone else, as if this whip is Ham Rodriguez, thinking that the year I was eighteen years old, I snatched the whip back, and also snatched him the man back.”
She said and laughed a little, “But I was naive after all, and the truth is, what’s snatched is snatched after all, and if it doesn’t belong to me, it never will.”
Yolanda Taylor till now, still clearly remember the expression on Heather’s face when she said this, painful and desperate, with a few moments of self-deprecation that made people look at her with a vague pain in the heart.
Later she realized, this whip is Ham Rodriguez specially let someone custom-made to give a girl, obviously at that time she told Ham Rodriguez, her birthday gift want a unique whip, but he remembered, but only remembered to insult her.
So when she heard that today was Ham Rodriguez and Jane’s engagement party, she had CoCo deliver the whip.
In fact, Yolanda Taylor didn’t want to do anything, she thought that after so many years ago, Ham Rodriguez, such a thin-hearted and ungrateful man, probably also forgot about it.
Even if he hadn’t forgotten, she thought that for him, it was just a more expensive and costly whip, and as for the rest, it didn’t count.
She hadn’t expected that Ham Rodriguez would come looking.
Yolanda Taylor paused for a moment, “What’s so special about this whip? But it’s really quite expensive, that sapphire on there, I had it appraised, it’s worth quite a bit of money. Heather said that she snatched this whip from you, she didn’t want to give it to me. But I thought about it, and I don’t have much use for keeping it for nothing, so I simply gave it to you.”
She said it lightly, but as soon as Yolanda Taylor finished speaking, Ham Rodriguez’s entire body froze.
Yolanda Taylor saw this change in him, but she pretended not to see it and indifferently turned away her eyes, “Is there anything else Ham Rodriguez? If there’s nothing else, then I’ll go upstairs and rest while you guys talk.”
“Wait!”
She had just turned around when Ham Rodriguez opened his mouth and called out to her.
Yolanda Taylor frowned a little and looked back at him, “Ham Rodriguez?”
“Yolanda Taylor, what will it take for you to tell me where she is?”
“Why would I tell you where she is? She told me before she left that she was finally free of you. You didn’t see the look on her face then, it was like someone who had been inside the mouth of a tiger had finally escaped with their life.” Yolanda Taylor said, lowering her head and her voice, “I haven’t seen her so relaxed.” “She stole a sum of money from my family, a very large sum of money, and if you insist on not telling me, I’ll have to ask the police for help.”
Yolanda Taylor’s heart shook as she looked incredulously at Ham Rodriguez, “Ham Rodriguez, you are despicable! Don’t say I don’t know where Heather is, even if I did know where she is, I wouldn’t tell you even if I died!”
“Then please tell her to get ready for my lawyer’s letter!”
Ham Rodriguez grimaced and turned and crossed over to her to leave on his own.
Yolanda Taylor’s eyes went red with anger as she looked at Ham Rodriguez’s back, wanting to smash something into him, and finally her eyes landed on a porcelain pendulum, which she went straight over to and swung at.
Just before she could do so, Gwen Fox held her and took the pendulum out of her hands, “Don’t be impulsive, Dear.”
Yolanda Taylor looked at the pendulum removed from her hand and looked up at him with a sneer, “You’re no good either, Gwen Fox!”
Snakes and rats and collusion!
Ham Rodriguez is already far away, and it’s impractical for her to take something and slam it over at this point.
Yolanda Taylor turned and headed up the stairs, she went in the bathroom and washed her face, the cold water calming her entire being.
“He’s just being tough-talking.”
“And what about you, Gwen Fox? And were you tough-talking in the first place, too?”
She asked him lightly as she sat on the end of the bed and met his gaze.
Gwen Fox’s eyes lowered at the mention of her past, not looking inside her eyes.
It was a windy September night, and in just a short while, his hair was already dry.
Gwen Fox lifted her leg and walked over to her, lifting her arms to hug her, “I’m an authority figure.”
Yolanda Taylor reached out and pushed against him, unable to do so, her entire body was wrapped in his arms.
The scent of his body lotion was the same as hers, so tangled together that it was hard to tell if it was hers or his.
Yolanda Taylor was stunned for a moment and stopped arguing with him unnecessarily.
She raised her hand and pushed him gently, “Just let go of me, it’s time for bed.”
Her voice was much softer, without the aggressive coldness, as if she was a thousand times more obedient back then.
Gwen Fox let go, stroked her long soft hair and lowered his head to kiss her on the forehead, “Go to sleep, don’t worry about them.”
Yolanda Taylor lay back down and responded nonchalantly.
I don’t know if it was because Ham Rodriguez made such a mess all of a sudden, Yolanda Taylor actually dreamed of the past too.
She remembered that mermaid tear, when she threw that mermaid tear into the trash can in front of Gwen Fox, then she went back in the middle of the night to look for it, but there was nothing, after that, she went to the dump again, and still couldn’t find anything.
She thought it was gone, but she didn’t realize that it would later reappear in Gwen Fox’s hands and end up in her hands again.
There had been a lot of ups and downs in between, but all Yolanda Taylor could remember was the look on his face when he had first said that she didn’t have any self-awareness, so cool and unfeeling that he wouldn’t even give her a look.
“Who’s the joke, Miss Taylor you need to be self-aware.”
Yolanda Taylor struggled to wake up from her dream, as soon as she opened her eyes, the room was still dark and dreary inside, with Gwen Fox asleep beside her.
She lifted the covers and got out of bed, walking to the outer room to pour herself a glass of water and stood there sipping it unsteadily.
The horsewhip was sent to Ham Rodriguez today, and she did have some intention of making Ham Rodriguez feel bad about it.
Heather walked away, but she thought about it, in the end, for her unwillingness, just like back in the year his own unwillingness to bite the teeth to hold on.
