I didn’t dare stop and walked to a café across the street. I was taking a sip of free water when I saw the bodyguards come in.
“Madam, what’s wrong?” the man asked.
“It’s all right!” I shook my head and then asked again, “You told Calvin that Kevin Smith came to see me?”
“It was Kevin Smith in the café just now?” The man had a shocked look on his face. He hid himself in the darkness. He didn’t elaborate and of course didn’t know who I had seen. At that moment, he heard Kevin Smith ‘s name and was startled.
“Yes!” I didn’t say much.
The arrival of Kevin Smith also left me no time to worry about Calvin’s deception. I was full of thoughts about why Kevin Smith came to me.
Why did he tell me about the relationship between Abby Williams and him? And this story.
San Francisco Hospital.
Bonder received the news that Kevin Smith and I met today, his face suddenly became serious, and he quickly reported to Calvin.
“Mr. Smith, Kevin Smith suddenly went to Mrs.!” Bonder was concerned.
Calvin thought for a while and dialed me with Bonder’s phone number. He was really worried, but my phone was still off, and Calvin’s pretty face went black again.
“Mr. Smith, Kevin Smith used Mrs. Friends to force the meeting.” Said Bonder.
“Arrange the itinerary and return at once!” Calvin finished his speech and turned to the station.
After meeting with Kevin Smith in the afternoon, I was full of energy, and I still felt like shopping at the supermarket and eating out.
I returned to the apartment building before eight o’clock.
I was only surprised that someone seemed to be in the house.
“Andy, are you back?” I saw a pair of slippers on the shoe rack and figured Andy was back, so I called out loud.
“Alexia, it’s me!” It was Anni who answered me.
The sound came from the room. I ran over and saw Anni lying on the bed.
“Anni, have you been discharged from the hospital?”
“Yes, I’m discharged.” Anni lay there, her face still pale, but she was in good spirits. When she saw Alexia come in, she sat up and braced her arms.
I quickly set the bag down in my hand and walked over and picked up the pillow behind Anni.
“Anni, you,” I glanced at the suitcase in the corner.
“Alexia, are you going to ask me why I came back to live?” Anni was smart, she saw my hesitant demeanor and knew what I wanted to ask.
“You and Andrew Davies” I waited for Anni to speak.
Anni changed her stance and smiled bitterly. “You’ve seen it all. It’s like this. He and I can’t live anymore. This time I want to make the decision myself. I’m thinking about it very clearly. This kind of life is not what I want. If it has to be, it’s better to get divorced than to force it!
Listening to Anni’s words, I was very moved. Anni had never been so determined as this time.
“Anni, if you can think like that, I’m relieved. I was afraid you wouldn’t be able to get out.” I held Anni’s hand and said cheerfully.
“Alexia, I almost forgot, why did you come back to live? I came back today and saw your suitcase here.”
“Oh, I work as a tutor around here. It’s very close to the student’s house. I’m going to stay for a few days now.” I casually found an excuse. Anni’s own affairs are enough to bother her, and I don’t want to add to Anni’s problems.
“Then your husband actually agrees?” Anni was surprised.
“He’s been so busy these past few days that he doesn’t have time to take care of me.” I said quietly.
“Anni, do you actually know that Andy has a boyfriend?” I thought for a while, I was still a little worried about Andy, I wonder if Anni knows.
Anni was even more surprised, with a dazed look on her face, “I haven’t heard. I asked her if she was in love a few days ago at the hospital, but she said no.”
I was getting more worried. “I always feel like there’s something wrong with Andy lately. She said she was dating the classmate who works in entertainment, but with her personality, I’m sure she’d tell us what happened this time. ?”
“Yeah,” Anni nodded, “she’s impulsive and easily fooled. She was controlled and brainwashed by this person, right?”
“Okay, Anni, don’t think about it, maybe she really did find the right guy, but she’s embarrassed to show him to us. I’ll ask her tomorrow.”
“Well, I hope so.” Anni nodded.
“Okay, Anni, get some more rest and don’t think about it!” I patted Anni on the shoulder and smiled.
The night was getting deeper and not far down Bonder looked over at Calvin who was smoking a cigarette next to the car, “Mr. Smith, why don’t you go upstairs?”
Calvin took a heavy drag, the smoke filling him, and he looked up at the upstairs window, blinking, not knowing what he was thinking.
“Mr. Smith, get in the car and get some rest. You’ve been on the plane so long today, and there’s a meeting tomorrow,” Bonder admonished.
Calvin had no objections and got in the car, but closed his eyes late.
The next morning I got up early, Anni’s room was quiet, I finished washing, changed and went out.
I drove off, not noticing a car following.
“Did you find out what Kevin Smith is doing?” Calvin asked with a calm expression in the car.
“He came here three days ago and flew back to Switzerland last night.” Bonder reported.
“Who has he seen in the last three days?” Calvin was still staring at the vehicle in front of him, his voice cold.
Bonder flipped his phone shut and told Calvin one by one of the reports that had come in.
Bonder paused suddenly, “Mr. Smith, Kevin Smith has been at Abby Williams since the day before yesterday .”
Calvin frowned and seemed to wonder who that was. “Abby Williams?”
“It’s Mrs. Smith’s half-sister,” Bonder replied.
“She?” Calvin’s expression grew more serious, and his eyes grew colder.
It turned out that Abby Williams belonged to Kevin Smith. No wonder she keeps trying to get close to him!
“Mr. Smith, why aren’t you curious about what Kevin Smith said to Mrs.?” Bonder couldn’t help asking.
He was so curious. Kevin Smith probably didn’t do anything out of the ordinary, but still Kevin Smith must have his intention to find me. How could Calvin be so calm?
Calvin gave Bonder an impatient look.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Smith!” Bonder immediately shut up. He’s been with Calvin for a long time and naturally understands Calvin’s temper. Calvin doesn’t like it when others inquire about his privacy. He asks that because he cares too much about me.
“Keep her safe.” Calvin dropped a word and ordered Bonder to drive away.
I parked the car in the nearby lot and refreshed my resume in the car to see if there was a suitable job. What I hadn’t counted on was that someone soon called asking about a painting instructor and setting up an appointment to meet nearby. I’m ecstatic.
I got out of the car and walked to the meeting.
“Why are you here?” I pushed open the restaurant, but I wasn’t expecting…
“Why can’t I be here?” Calvin pulled me into his arms.
I want to break free, but I don’t have enough strength, so all I can do is give up.
When Calvin saw that, he got even angrier. “If I don’t come to you, are you going to hide from me forever?”
“Aren’t you going to divorce me? Why are you looking for me?” I hugged Calvin tightly to me, but this time I broke away from him easily, and I sat down on the sofa without looking at him.
“What are you talking about!” Calvin frowned and sat down. “I said it was a misunderstanding! Why don’t you believe me?”
“Misunderstanding?” I slapped Calvin’s hand away and said emotionally, “Calvin, do you think I’m a fool? I saw it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears. Are you telling me now that this is a misunderstanding?”
Calvin patiently explained, “Ale, when did I lie to you? She’s Nacy, she was born to be a joker. I was drinking alcohol that night and I wasn’t driving. She drove me back. She harassed us a lot. ”
“Calvin, do you think I’m stupid?” I grinned.
“I swear to God, if there’s any nonsense, I’ll get run over if I go outside!” Calvin is annoyed, he’s telling the truth, but now even he thinks that’s actually a bit unbelievable.
Hearing this brought tears to my eyes, “Why are you making such a vow!”
Calvin saw my tears and his heart suddenly softened. He put his hand around me and wiped the tears, “Ale, do you trust me? I really didn’t do anything to make you sorry.”
Calvin tried to explain in such a soft voice that I actually began to waver.
“Calvin, I’m sorry!”
Calvin sighed inwardly, he squatted down, holding my hands and looking at her, “I’m sorry Ale, I was wrong this time.”
I shook my head, wanting to say something but couldn’t get a sound out, and then thick tears rolled down.
“Don’t cry, okay? I know it’s wrong. I really haven’t done anything to make you sorry. I don’t have another woman but you!” Calvin reached out to wipe away my tears, his voice softer.
I couldn’t stop it anymore, hugging Calvin, burying my face against his shoulder and crying.
Calvin hugged me too and made me sit on his lap, comforting gently, “I’m sorry, it’s all my fault, don’t cry!”
After a while, I said softly, “You know why I would avoid you?”
Calvin, of course, was also very curious. He knew my temper, I was sometimes stubborn but not unreasonable, but this time I reacted too violently.
“Why?”
“I’m afraid.”
“What are you afraid of?” Calvin lifted my chin, prompting me to look at him.
“I didn’t feel it before. I always felt like two people just had to love each other, but since I met you, I’ve become insecure.” That was what I said in my heart. I was very insecure in front of Calvin.
