He raised an eyebrow, “My hands are not handy.”
Just so faintly back to me, I was a little confused for a while, but also had to follow what he said and typed.
Olivia stood to the side, her delicate face a little pale.
…
Yadriulia’s project, after a few hectic days of contact, was finally a day of rest.
I was thinking about how to take a leave of absence from work with Edward and go back to City P. As I was about to return to the city for the Mid-Autumn Festival, I thought about how to take a leave of absence from work with Edward.
Clariana has been calling me at night for the past few days, saying to me every day, “Mom, I miss you,” and no mother can withstand the thoughts of her child.
On Saturday afternoon, Dennis had an appointment with Edward to talk about the next coming of the Yadriulia project. I had nothing to do and had planned to pack up my things at the villa and go back.
But to my surprise Olivia called, “Clara, do you have a minute?”
Knowing that nothing good could come from her, I opened my mouth and said straight back, “No, sorry Miss Pearson, just say what you want on the phone.”
She smiled lightly, “It’s not a big deal, but I just heard that you seemed to have almost frozen to death some time ago, so I wanted to offer my condolences.”
I frowned, how did she know about this?
“Thank you Miss Pearson for your concern.”
She hmmed and spoke, “Unfortunately, Miss Kennedy didn’t have time, and I said I wanted to talk to you about the other day, but since you’re busy, forget it.”
I froze for a moment, the day of the matter has been Dennis in the investigation, I did not ask, after so many days I almost forgot about it, she now suddenly called and said I this, and her related? Or?
“Olivia, what do you mean?” I had little patience and spoke up directly.
“It means nothing, that is, I don’t want Dennis to be so tired for you, so I secretly found someone to check it out, and accidentally found something, but since you’re not interested, forget it.”
“Meet place you send me a message!!!” I opened my mouth, got up and went to the bedroom, found a jacket and put it on.
She responded with a breezy, good, and then hung up the phone.
The address is not difficult to find, is a cafe, she has arrived, ordered a cup of coffee end sitting, very elegant to enjoy the view outside the window.
Knowing that I came, she did not raise her eyebrows to look at me, but only slightly narrowed her eyes, then elegantly took a sip of coffee and looked at me with raised eyebrows, “This coffee is still bitter to drink a little bit better, add sugar, the taste has changed.”
I pursed my lips and didn’t answer. I don’t like bitter things, food is, and life is.
After asking for a glass of juice and seeing that she didn’t say anything, I got a little impatient and said, “Is Miss Pearson just going to ask me to come here and drink coffee with you?”
She smiled lightly, “Of course not!”
Drinking half a cup of coffee was put down by her before she raised her eyes to look at me, her gaze fell on my neck, pursed her lips and smiled, “That day Dennis took two together, I have been wondering who he gave the other one to, I did not expect it to be you!”
I pursed my lips and raised my hand to touch the necklace around my neck, which Dennis had given me that day at dinner.
I didn’t open my mouth to return to him, I didn’t have to think about what she was going to say later, I didn’t have to give myself a hard time.
Seeing that I did not open my mouth, she laughed, “Do not open your mouth to ask me, how do you know the necklace around your neck?”
“I’m not interested!” I opened my mouth and took a light sip of the juice, some sweetened it, and it didn’t feel like fresh fruit squeezed out of the drink.
She shrugged her shoulders, but did not react to my attitude, leaned back in her chair and said, “originally intended to ask you to eat crab together, but at this point, past eating can not eat much, so it was put off, how about it? The crab that was brought back to you that day, did it taste okay?”
I drink juice hand a meal, look up at her, she looked at me with a smile, eyes with a few heavy provocation.
It seems that Dennis didn’t come back that day and was eating with her all the time.
Suppressing the emotion in my heart, I spoke, “So, you’re here to show off with me?”
She smiled lightly, “Of course not, but I grew up loving crabs, Dennis was always remembering that, so the night I came to City A, he took me straight to the crabs, but I’m sorry, none of us thought that something would happen to you that night, luckily you were fine.”
This is how to sound a little fake, I lightly smile, “and you have nothing to do with, but also thanks to that accident, otherwise I do not know, so your Dennis turned out to love me so much.”
The smile at the corners of her mouth froze, and only after a moment did she slacken and open her mouth, “I’m a little curious, what would you offend, so that the other side so bloody want to get you killed, but also a one-stop service, directly waiting to enter the crematorium it!”
I shrugged my shoulders and said with some relief, “I wondered about that too, but Miss Pearson, did you find out anything?”
She raised her eyebrows, apparently did not get any bargain, the heart is not happy, but still spoke, “I did not find out much, maybe Dennis’s direction is wrong, you were let out of the elevator with after, maybe take you into the morgue is not the same person, that person is not necessarily a man.”
Looking at her, I couldn’t help but frown, “I’m curious, where did Miss Pearson’s information come from?”
She snorted coldly, “It doesn’t matter where it came from, the important thing is that you shouldn’t let Dennis get into trouble for you again with this kind of thing.”
“What do you know?” I opened my mouth and got serious.
Seeing that she didn’t seem as relaxed as she had been earlier, I moved closer to her and spoke up, “Olivia, if you’re really doing this for your Dennis, you should tell me everything exactly.”
She originally came to my trouble today, but at this point does not seem to have been able to curry any favor, the heart is ultimately not too happy.
So the gaze disdainful said, “Clara, you really quite selfish, three times let Dennis for you involved in the risk, you actually do not love him at all, right? Otherwise you wouldn’t have left him twice, and both times you didn’t meet a man who was more willing to spend money for you than he was, and in the end you still went back to him, don’t you feel shameful?”
I tsked and got a little upset, what do you mean you can’t find a man who will spend money for me.
When I looked at him, I was not polite, “Three times for me in danger? Olivia, do you know why in the end you and Dennis had a better chance of getting together than I did, but in the end he chose me?”
Letting out a breath, I said, “Because you’re so disgusting? You let him have an accident not once, right? It was all in the car, what are you thinking? You can’t get it so you want to ruin it? Besides, he spent money for me? I always thought you more or less still have a face, but now it seems that the face of such things, you are not at all, you do not work all these years not to start a business, every day what you want to buy anything, are some of the world’s top brands, the money is whose? Your own? You name the property and cars are you picked up? Which of these things did not Dennis give you? You took your brother’s death for granted and used the money he earned by working late at night, instigated Luna to kill his own children, and nearly broke up his wife. If your brother were alive, do you think he would be ashamed to have a sister like you? Even if you are really Dennis’ own sister, I’m afraid that after so many years, you should be self-reliant, it’s not too much to say that you are a parasite.”
