The most frequent message is from Dennis, click on it to see, mostly pictures of him and Clariana, not too many words, just daily greetings, have you eaten? What are you doing?
I looked carefully and flipped to the last one, which he had recently sent, so it seemed that he had nothing serious.
I thought about it, I still returned.
“I’m fine, don’t worry!” I didn’t know what else I could say except that one sentence.
Then I sent messages to both Folly and Karina, reporting that they were safe.
The police did not take long to come, after all, I called the police and need to take evidence.
Anda side Andy was surprised that I would come back, and even more surprised that I would bring the police to find him.
The moment he saw me, he dropped all the documents in his hands, looked at me, his face is unable to hide the surprise, “Clara, you …”
I smiled lightly, “Thanks to your blessing, I am still alive!”
The police came forward and took him away after something happened to the documents, as for the gang of female police, the police went over when there was no one left.
It seems to have been withdrawn in advance.
When Dennis called, I was coming out of the police station.
I’m too familiar with his phone number, even without a note, just a glance at the numbers, they all know it’s him.
It was a difficult choice to answer or not to answer.
I looked at it half a dozen times before I clicked on it.
There are no too many words, his voice is low and introspective, as familiar as ever.
“Where is it?”
I had a moment to wander, looking up at City A August day, suddenly found that time seemed to have suddenly passed a long time.
“Domestic!” Zuy encounter, no just words, think, he is worried.
On the other end of the phone, there was a moment of silence, “I came to see you?”
There was a questioning tone in these words, I pursed my lips and spoke, “No, I’m fine now, don’t worry.”
“I want to see you!” The man’s voice had a bit of a suppressed air in it, and you could feel his emotions through the phone line.
I want to see you!
It’s been a long time since I’ve heard such words, I smiled lightly, and my heart couldn’t help but feel a little warm.
“Dennis, I’m fine, really!” I wanted to tell him that he could try to live his own life, but I knew that the words were bound to draw his wrath.
“I’m not fine!” There was something low in his voice, with a few urgent uncontrollable emotions, “Clara, no matter who you are, there are limits to banishment, you want to walk alone, I let go and willingly stay where I am and wait for you, but you can’t stay in banishment like this, I’m not willing to face the loneliness of the late night alone, and I’m not willing to rely on memories to live on, I want to see you. I want to see you, right now.”
I was lost in thought for a moment, this is the first time I heard Dennis’ feelings so frankly, without a trace of reservation, with eager words.
If he were in front of me at this moment, I think I would have hugged him tightly and told him that I missed him too, especially and especially.
“Dennis, you’ve taken good care of Clariana, thank you.” I changed the subject, afraid I wouldn’t be able to control myself and tilt all my missing to him, afraid that my presence would make his life start to get messy again.
The life he should have had should have been a beautiful wife and children, I did not have the ability to give him a beautiful marriage, could not give him children, leaving was the best choice.
There was a gruff voice on the other end of the line, “Clara, is this punishment? If it is, tell me what I need to do for you to come back?”
I froze, suddenly not worth what to say, a moment of silence, the heart has a fear to continue to talk, opened the mouth, “Dennis, I have something, hang up first.”
When I hung up the phone, I couldn’t help but have a sour nose, since when did I become a coward, turned into a cowardly ghost who even dislikes himself.
Ridiculous!
Back at the office, Edward looked at me, a little angry, “Clara, I need an explanation from you?”
Originally, there was an hour break at noon, but I went for two hours because of the police matter, and rushed to the office, late was inevitable.
Seeing his brow knitted tightly, his displeasure was written directly on his face.
I told him exactly what happened and he remained angry, “I don’t care what you have going on, but you are not responsible for your work when you leave your post during working hours.”
I apologized repeatedly, knowing that he was angry, and chose to remain silent.
After listening to him count his words, and seeing that I didn’t seem to be speaking up either, he did stop and looked at me and said, “Go get Linda to take over the job, and count yourself absent from work today.”
I froze for a moment, a little dumbfounded, just one hour even if absent from work, the capitalist ruthless ah!
But after all, they are the boss, I really made a mistake, and there is nothing to argue.
After handing over the work with Linda, Jannings called, apparently the lady is full of sleep.
“Clara, do you have a date tonight? Come out for dinner.”
I thought for a moment and said, a little frustrated, “I’d actually like to go, but I’m supposed to have something tonight.”
Edward wanted me to be on call twenty-four hours a day, and there was no telling what this man might suddenly call me to do.
“Ah!” She said, “What can I do? I’ve asked Jenny and Fanny to go to Zero tonight to get high. What’s more important than being alive and happy when you’re back from the dead?”
I smiled lightly, “Miss Baker, I’m not excusing myself, it’s true, I’m working for Edward’s company as his secretary, on call 24 hours a day, on call, you think I can walk away?”
She gave a tsk and said, “You’re a secretary? Being on call twenty-four hours a day, are you even in charge of his food, drink, and shit?”
“Come to think of it, I suppose so.” After all, now it seems that I do all the breakfast and dinner, so I guess it’s not much worse.
“Holy shit!” She was a little excited, “Why do I sound like, you guys are kind of like going for an idol drama plot ah, Mr. White is not looking at you, right?”
I almost didn’t choke on my saliva, coughed a few times and said, “You’re overthinking it, I’m just simply short of money right now and working for him.”
“Tsk!” She got a little gossipy, “It’s not that I’m overthinking it, it’s that I feel like this route is so iconic that it’s a little forbidden to reverie.”
Speaking of which, she paused for a moment and said, “By the way, when are you going back to City P. You said you were short of money, or I’ll get you some from my side …”
Probably feeling wrong, she added, “No, you said you were married, didn’t you? Shouldn’t you be looking for your husband right now? Why are you in Mr. White’s company?”
I didn’t know what to say for a while, so I avoided it and said, “So what, I’m a little busy right now, so I’ll hang up and make an appointment some other time.”
This relationship is too complicated, want to explain clearly for a while there is no way to explain.
