After hearing Carl’s words, Emma was very shocked and her mood fluctuated greatly. She looked at Carl in a daze all the time and finally nodded to Carl and said, “Sorry, I understand.”
Carl smiled to Emma, and then said, “I need to look at these materials, you sleep, I will call you when we arrived.”
Emma nodded, and then obediently closed his eyes.
Emma was shocked by Carl’s words. She was very angry and thought Carl was unrepentant. He lived a miserable life and she clearly wanted to help him but he refused. However, when Carl said they don’t want pity, Emma was shocked. She never thought that she was in pity for Carl and Frost. She always thought that she was just helping Carl. However, when Carl said the word of pity, she was stunned.
She was concerned about Frost and Carl, but, in some case, she did felt pity for them. So she wanted to help them. This help was an act of kindness. It could be help and could be charity, which seemed to the same.
Emma understood Carl, and her anger suddenly disappeared. Not to mention Carl, even she felt difficult to accept it if she was in the same situation.
Carl’s words “I wasn’t helping the company when I translated that last document. I was helping you” made Emma touched. Emma did not hear such a pure sentence for a long time in the business that only pursues interests.
“Yes, emotion has nothing to do with interest, and they are not the same.” Emma closed her eyes and said silently in her heart.
Carl did not know his simple words produced such a big ripple in the heart of Emma. He picked up the document, Emma handed him, a few minutes later he closed the document, and then closed his eyes, slowly feeling to sleep.
It took dozens of hours to fly Hong Kong to Paris, Emma only slept for a few hours. In addition to looking at the data, she chatted with Carl most of her time, unfortunately, it was not pleasant to chat with Carl, because Carl has been listening all the time.
After more than ten hours of flight, the plane finally landed on the land of Paris at noon Paris time. Emma got off the plane wearing a pair of sunglasses, which looked charming.
Once they walked out of the airport, they called a taxi to the hotel they had booked. Of course, whether it’s taking a taxi or checking into a hotel, a few words of English can solve the problem, so there is no need for Carl, an unofficial translator, to be there.
Since everyone was jet lagged and sleepy, everyone went to bed after lunch. Carl is no different, though he doesn’t suffer from jet lag. Maybe Linda arranged intentionally, Carl got a luxurious suite again, and, the room was next to Emma. Many people were confused about such arrangement, including Carl. Even the big company or President of the United States, they would not arrange a luxury suite in five-star hotel for a bodyguard. Afterwards Carl understood that all this was arranged by Wilson Li, that is, no matter under what circumstances, Carl should be arranged around Emma. Emma was to live in a suit. No matter she was so extravagant, this was the symbol of a company’s strength, so Carl lived a luxury suite. After all, the next door of luxury suite is also a luxury suite.
Of course, for Carl, it didn’t matter whether he lived in a simple standard room or a luxurious suite, but he is also open to sleeping more comfortably. The rest of the people lived on another floor, only Carl and Emma lived on this floor. Carl waited until Emma entered the room and then looked around. After seeing the dense cameras in hidden corners of the hotel corridor, he felt relieved and went into his room, and then fell on the bed and slept.
Carl did not know how long he slept, suddenly he heard the knock on the door, got up from the bed, went to the cat eye place to see, and found Emma knocking on his door.
“What is it?” Carl opened the door and asked Emma.
“I can’t sleep. Are you free? Accompany me to Paris if you have time.” Emma asked Carl.
Carl nodded, and then said to Emma, “Wait for me, I wash my face.”
Emma stood at the door only waiting for a moment, and then went downstairs together with Carl.
“Where are you going?” Carl asked Emma.
“I don’t know, but look around. The meeting with Aril Group is in tomorrow, so I don’t think I’ll have the time or the mood to look around. I’ll be sorry if I don’t see it after all when I get to Paris. Go to Notre Dame, like the Arc DE Triomphe, the Eiffel Tower.” Emma lightly said, and then said, “In fact, I am nervous, so, I want to go out to take a breath.”
Carl nodded, indicating understanding.
Downstairs, he called a taxi in front of the hotel and took it. In his fluent and authentic Spoken Parisian French, Carl told the driver to go to the Eiffel Tower.
The driver drove the car to the Eiffel Tower, and he was shocked by Carl’s authentic French as a Chinese. And it was the authentic accent of Paris, it’s like you met a European in Peking, and he spoke Peking accent, like a native, so he was surprised by that.
“It seems strange that this driver is always peeking at us in the rearview mirror. Is there something in him or is that Parisians are so strange to foreigners?” Seeing the driver always peeking at them, Emma asked Carl.
Carl smiled and said lightly, “It may be the worship of Oriental beauty.”
Emma looked up curiously to Carl, and then said with a smile, “I did not know you will also say sweet words?”
Carl was stunned. He really did not intent to praise Emma, he just told the truth. But Carl did not explain, but lightly smiled, without speaking.
