These I naturally know, nodded and said, “Thank you!”
He laughed and stopped making a sound.
The wound pus because of the relationship of infection, plus his wounds are a little deep, I was cleaning, worried about his pain, can not help but move a little lighter.
“The White family works, is it worldwide?” Zuy and Western Ascana both have them, so that would be a big business.
He nodded.
I continued, “I’ve known you for so long, I don’t know exactly what business you guys are in?”
He paused and said, “Oil, and now also technology.”
“Oil?” I was reminded of the old Mr. White that I met at Folly’s wedding.
I couldn’t help but look at him and say, “You’re from the White family?”
He raised his eyebrows, did not speak, I suddenly remembered the auction in Newton Town, could not help but say, “You held an auction in Newton Town before?”
If so, then his appearance at the cemetery later, and the coincidence of saving me, would make sense.
Looking at him, I couldn’t help but get serious, and when he saw this, he did open his mouth and said, “If you go on like this, I will be poked to death.”
I froze, startled, looked down and saw that I had accidentally poked the cotton swab into his wound and it was bleeding a little.
A time to retract the hand, and quickly spoke, “Sorry, I did not mean to!”
Take the medicine to re-bandage and smear on him, and realized that he had nothing on him except a pair of shorts.
I was a little embarrassed for a while, pulled the towel over him and said, “It’s getting late, you get some rest.”
He hmmed a word, I collected the medicine box, then did not make too much stay, out of the bedroom.
The Heroin in the Jannings’ bodies was removed, but after all, they were all women and needed a few days to recuperate from the damage.
Edward has something to do, naturally there is little time to care about me, I also basically put my mind on the Jannings and their body.
I originally wanted to call Dennis to report a safe trip, but after calling several times, his phone was on hold, I think it was set to call forwarding, there is no way to call in.
I gave up and thought about calling Folly and the others, but when I went to Zuy, my cell phone had long been taken by the policewomen in the police station and I had lost my phone, so I didn’t have a phone book and I couldn’t remember their phone numbers, so I couldn’t contact them.
After a week in Western Ascana, the Jannings were almost recovered from their wounds.
Edward’s business was also finished, and the night before they returned home, the Jannings all checked into the villa.
The Jannings seemed to be more quiet than before after a walk on the line of life and death.
Jenny and Fanny were also reluctant to talk, and Cherry still liked to read the scriptures.
Probably realizing that everyone at the table was a little awkwardly silent, Fanny spoke up, “We’ll be home tomorrow, so let’s drink to that!”
She held up her glass and pulled a few smiles from her face as she looked at a few of us.
Jannings froze and followed her as she raised her glass and looked at me, “This time, no matter what, we still have to thank Clara, she saved us all, if she hadn’t asked Mr. White to help, I’m afraid we wouldn’t be worth feeding the fish in which sea now!”
“Yes!” Cherry stopped chanting, looked at me now, and smiled, “This time, fortunately there is Clara, so we should all toast her, come drink together!”
So we all raised our glasses and drank, and finally got the conversation back, and the atmosphere was lively.
At one point everyone opened up, Jannings leaned close to me and whispered, “What is your relationship with Edward? Are you really related to thd George family, the Kennedy family, the Lewis family?”
I was stuck for a moment, and after a pause, I said, “That’s not a very good question, Jannings, and I can choose not to answer it!”
“What’s wrong with that? You’re not worried that we’re all going to get on your back and climb over you, are you?” It was Cherry who spoke, and she looked at me, smiling.
I froze and responded, “I didn’t mean that, I just felt bad telling everyone, we’ve all been through so much together, we’re considered life and death friends, how could I feel that everyone is climbing on me.”
“You can’t say that, experiencing life and death, it’s always been the four of us, you’ve come all this way, either by men, or by relationship, and have not specifically suffered any injuries, this life and death friends, said too easily.”
Cherry this words with a thorn in the side, but she did say the same thing, there is nothing wrong with it.
I had nothing to say, pulled a smile, somehow did not know how to continue.
“Cherry, how do you talk? If it wasn’t for Clara and Mr. Edward, do you really think we would have survived so easily? One can’t get a good deal and still sell a good deal?” Jannings was a little angry, and his eyes looked at Cherry with some fireworks.
Speaking of which, Cherry laughed coldly, “You really think she saved our lives? Do you really think she saved us? If she really wanted to save us, she could have saved us from that operation at Zuy and just taken us away, she had to wait until Bob put something into us before she pretended to take us out and let us suffer again? What is this? A slap on the wrist and a candy bar?”
Jenny looked up at her with a slight frown of displeasure, “If you didn’t want her help, you could have just left when you came to Western Ascana. Who ran into Clara’s room in the middle of the night and made a point of showing her the wound on her stomach? You never asked for anything for yourself, you took everything for granted?”
These words blocked Cherry, and for a moment Cherry’s face turned red, her brows knitted, and she wanted to yell at her.
Fanny hurriedly spoke, “What do we have to say, say it properly, there is no need to make it like this, right? It’s no fun to argue like this, and we’re all safe now, so shouldn’t we be happy that we’re all still alive?”
The atmosphere quieted down, Cherry got up, “You guys eat, I’m full.”
Then he went upstairs.
Jenny and Jannings didn’t say anything, Fanny looked at me and changed the subject, “Clara, are you going straight back to City P?”
I nodded and thought for a moment, “Well, I’m going back to see my daughter.”
“You have a daughter?” She was a little surprised, “I look at you so young, how come you have a daughter so soon, how old is your daughter?”
“Five years old, soon to be six years old.”
A few people looked at each other, Jannings looked at me with some suspicion and said, “So you’re married, does Edward know?”
I was a little baffled and nodded, “Yes!”
“Huh?” A few people were shocked, “He knows you have a family, and still treats you so well, he can’t be a psychological problem, right?”
