Selina’s mother’s eyes were red, looked at her and said, “I don’t mean anything else, we just came to get some clothes, winter is coming, we take the clothes away, owe you several months of rent, these things you withhold should also be, just me and the old man’s clothes, it’s not worth much, you let us take it away, you don’t need it, we take it and can survive this winter. ”
The woman snorted, “You take it, don’t cry with me, I’ve seen a lot of poor people in my life, who are not struggling in the mud, just to live, you want clothes, take it away, this house if you can’t pay the rent, you don’t want to live, I’m still in a hurry to rent to others!
Selina’s mother nodded, rummaging through the small courtyard for clothes, Selina’s father squatted on the ground, red-eyed and did not know what to look at, the light was too dim, looking like he was looking at photos.
“Auntie!” I opened my mouth and walked out into the small courtyard.
Hearing the sound, Selina’s mother looked towards us, froze for a moment and spoke, “Mrs. George, Mr. George, what are you doing here?”
Saying that, with some embarrassed hands intertwined, I smiled lightly and spoke, “Dennis and I were uneasy, so we came over to take a look.”
“I’ve made you guys laugh!” Selina’s mother was a little embarrassed.
I know that no one wants to tear open their embarrassment wretched straight in front of them, even if they are desperate again.
Without saying much, I looked to the landlady and said, “The old man is old, is there still a house on the first floor?”
The woman looked at me in a trance for a moment and said, “Of course I do, are you renting?”
I nodded my head and spoke, “You help the two old people to place these things first, the money will not be less for you!”
She looked at me and then at Dennis, and then her face changed to a smile, nodded, and then nimbly began to carry things for the two old people.
Selina’s mother looked at me somewhat bewildered, “Mrs. George, you’ve helped us enough with this …”
“Auntie, you just live here in peace, don’t think about anything else, ease up for a while, it will all be fine later.” I am a person who does not know how to comfort people, I do not know how to comfort her.
After the woman carried all the two old people’s things in, she looked at us and said with a smile, “You two, you see that all this is taken care of, is there anything else I can help you with?”
I smiled lightly, took out my wallet from the bag, gave her some money and said, “This money is enough for the two old people to live for a while, the extra money, you will be troubled to take care of the two old people in the future, you will not be missing.”
Receiving the money, the woman smiled without official are screwed together, nodding repeatedly said good reassuring words.
I took out all the change on my body and couldn’t help but look at Dennis, who smiled a little helplessly and took his wallet out of his chest suit and handed it to me.
I smiled lightly, opened his wallet, took out all the money inside, handed it to Selina’s mother and said, “Auntie, you can take this money first, we will come back to see you some time later, call me if you need anything.”
Selina’s mother excused herself repeatedly, “I can’t take this money, you paid our rent, it’s already kind, we can’t ask for your money anymore, Mrs. George, you can take it back.”
I shook my head and spoke, “Auntie, you take this money, you live here, well, the money you take, I also feel more at ease, otherwise we go back, I do not feel at ease, you take it as a peace of mind, you take it, and uncle live well in the future, do not worry, after slowly all will be fine.”
Looking at her tears crackling, I really do not know what to say, explained a few words, and then put and Dennis out of the trail.
In the car!
I couldn’t help but sigh.
Dennis looked at his watch and looked at me and said, “What do you want to eat?”
He did not say I had forgotten, today from morning to night he and I have not eaten it, so a thought, there can not help but look at the alley.
Dennis seemed to know what I was thinking and spoke up, “Don’t worry, I’ve already had food sent to them, now you drop everything and think about what you want to eat at ease?”
I thought about it and spoke, “Let’s go eat stew, it’s so late, it’s not good to run too far.”
He smiled lightly, somewhat helplessly, raised his hand and pinched my face and spoke, “After a busy day, do you still know what you were originally going to do today?”
I nodded, “Wait to take time to go to the hospital, and not in a hurry these days.”
He gave me a shallow kiss on my cheek, somewhat helplessly, with a few doting words, “All right, go eat!”
…
The following days were busy almost every day. In November, the George Group had to prepare a quarterly operating statement and start preparing for the next year’s development, and there was so much going on that he left early and came home late almost every day.
Although I don’t work at the White Group anymore, I still have to follow the process of leaving. I originally planned to meet Jannings for dinner, but when I called her after I finished working, she said she had already left for City A.
Although I feel that she has something that wants to talk to me, but again, I feel that there is nothing to say to me on the phone, Link side of the above can not find out what to do, but also naturally be put home.
Link is old, so he likes to have a good time, and he kept calling us after he came out, saying that he wanted us to come over for dinner.
Friday.
Afternoon!
I answered Leo and went to dinner with the Kennedy family. I originally wanted to ask about him and Karina, but he seemed reluctant to mention it, so I didn’t ask much.
I cleaned up at home, changed into warm clothes and went out, driving directly to the George Group, intending to go with him to the Kennedy family.
The car was parked in the underground garage, I called Dennis, called several times, he did not answer, I thought if he was busy, and did not continue to call, sitting in the car to brush the phone.
I froze for a moment and looked at the message from the person with the note Barbara.
I had a momentary memory loss in my head and remembered who Barbara was as an afterthought, and after agreeing, she sent a letter, “Clara, hi, it’s Barbara.”
Clara? I couldn’t help but stare, so I thought no one had ever called me that before and was a little uncomfortable.
I typed a line, “Hello, nice to meet you.”
She seemed to be as unsociable as I was, and after the greeting, she spoke directly, “When are you coming to City A. I’d like to talk to you.”
I hesitated for a moment, I so wanted to have no time to go to City A recently, “I don’t know yet, what’s wrong? Did something happen?”
“… No!” She returned one word and then didn’t respond to me.
