I know you are here, please open the door and let’s talk.”
” Myrna ! Did you hear that?”
…
“Good job, Myrna , good job! You’re not going to open the door, are you? Do you think I can’t get in if you don’t open it?”
From showing weakness to calmness, and then to gradual rage, Ansel ‘s patience was running out bit by bit.
Just when he finally gave up and turned to leave, he was caught off guard by a pair of cold eyes.
Ansel froze in place, frowning fiercely.
The narrow stairwell was dimly lit and Dempsey was standing on the steps, seemingly having just climbed to this floor.
Showing up here at this time, you can figure out what he is doing with your toes.
After Clyde’s commotion that day, Dempsey suddenly showed up . While Ansel was angry, he finally realized that these “flies” surrounding Myrna seemed to be no simple matter.
So, after calming down, he immediately asked someone to investigate Dempsey ‘s background.
It turned out to be Dempsey Gus . No wonder even Clyde Effie gave in.
Ansel : “Come to see Myrna ?”
Dempsey said calmly: “So what if it is? So what if it isn’t?”
“You should know what my relationship with her is.”
“so what?”
Ansel narrowed his eyes slightly: “If you know what’s good for you, you should stay away from her.”
“I’m sorry, I’m notoriously tactless.”
” Myrna is mine! She was mine before, and now she is just throwing a tantrum. From now on, she will be mine alone.”
Dempsey frowned: “She is a person, not an object. She should not belong to anyone. If you have to say who she belongs to, then she can only belong to herself.”
Ansel sneered: ” Mr. Gus reads a lot of books, but doesn’t seem to understand women very well. There’s a saying that goes, ‘The deeper the love, the deeper the hatred. Myrna made such a fuss with me today because she loves me too deeply.”
“If you don’t believe me, she won’t open the door for you even if you knock on it. So, don’t think about things that don’t belong to you. It’s useless to think about them.”
Having said that, Ansel walked straight past him and strode down the stairs.
Dempsey looked at the direction he left, then glanced at the door of Myrna ‘s house, frowning in confusion.
Of course he knew that Myrna would not open the door for him. To be more precise, she would not open the door for anyone.
because–
She’s not at home at all.
…
Maldives, blue sky, white clouds and sound of waves.
The turquoise water allows you to clearly see the fish swimming below.
The sun brings warmth, the wind is gentle, and the waves are blooming.
Three days ago, Myrna received a call from Joanna .
The project she was working on was finally delivered, and her boyfriend went back to his hometown for the winter vacation. She slept at home for two days and was extremely bored, so she simply made an appointment with Myrna to go on a spontaneous trip.
“As for the place … ” Joanna held her chin, “Maldives, please.”
Myrna thought for two seconds and agreed immediately, “Okay.”
On the one hand, it was to get away from the mess caused by Clyde and Ansel , and on the other hand, I really wanted to relax.
Myrna likes reading and studying, she knows that being too tense is not a good thing. Only by relaxing in moderation and combining work and rest can one achieve long-term stability.
At this moment, looking at the blue sea and the cloudless sky, she slept on the beach chair, listened to the sound of waves hitting the rocks, and enjoyed the warm sunbath. Myrna felt more and more that she had made the right trip.
She picked up the mango juice at hand and took a sip. It was neither too sweet nor too bland, just right.
Joanna, who was wearing sexy clothes , walked over on the beach. Seeing her lazy look, she simply lay down on another chair next to her: “Oh~ It’s comfortable~ You really know how to enjoy yourself.”
As he said this, he put on his sunglasses, took a sip of coconut juice like Myrna , and then raised the corners of his mouth in satisfaction.
Myrna crossed her long legs and turned over leisurely: “Aren’t you on a date?”
Joanna curled her lips in disdain. “That blond man was full of muscles. I thought he was so powerful, but it turns out he is just an empty shell. He is not even as good as the little boy I raised .”
Myrna was a little amused: “The one I met last time … Keven?”
“I changed it a long time ago. This boy is sunny, cute, and has a lovely personality. He smells good all over. The most important thing is that he can cook! It’s so delicious!”
“But you.” Joanna looked at her through her sunglasses and teased with a smile, “Aren’t you planning to find another one?”
How boring is it to hang yourself on a tree?
It’s fun to date different people!
Myrna looked ahead at the sea: “Don’t consider it. I don’t have the time, energy, or need.”
“That’s right,” Joanna smacked her lips. “Men will only affect the efficiency of the top students in doing the questions and lower their test scores.”
She stretched herself, her eyes drifting away: “Well … I just saw a handsome guy with blue eyes, I’ll go over and talk to him, you can have fun by yourself first, bye~”
Myrna raised her glass to her: “Have fun.”
…
“Have you checked it out?” Ansel stood in front of the French window in his office, his sharp eyes cast on the assistant, “Is it wrong again this time?”
The assistant was terrified: “I’m sorry Mr Howard , last time … it was my negligence. Now it has been found out that Ms Wagner did not fly to North City , but went to the Maldives.”
“Sure?”
“This is the flight boarding information. Ms Wagner ‘s name is on the passenger manifest.”
Ansel didn’t look closely, he believed that there would be no mistake this time.
The last mistake couldn’t be blamed entirely on the assistant. After all, who could have thought that Clyde would be so despicable as to swap Myrna ‘s information with that of another passenger, deliberately misleading the person he sent to investigate and giving him wrong information.
Ansel : “Book me the earliest flight.”
The assistant took out his phone and checked: ” Mr. Howard , the earliest flight is at 7 a. m. tomorrow.”
“This class, then.”
“Okay. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be out first?”
Ansel waved.
The assistant turned and left, not forgetting to close the door respectfully.
“Mike, why are you sweating? Did Mr. Howard curse at me?”
Mike waved his hand: “Let’s not talk about it. By the way, please help Mr. Howard book a flight to the Maldives at 7 o’clock tomorrow morning. It’s too late. I’m leaving now.”
“Okay, go to your daughter’s parent-teacher meeting without worry, I’m here!”
Mike laughed: “You’ve only been here for a few days? Don’t brag, it’s easy to get embarrassed.”
“Don’t worry, how could I make a mistake in booking a flight? You underestimate me.”
“Okay, hurry up and do it. I won’t tell you anymore. If you’re really late, my daughter will have to blame me for a month … ”
The female assistant immediately took out her work phone and started booking tickets.
It just so happened that the passenger’s information was bound to my mobile phone, and when checking out, it showed that two tickets were about to be successfully booked.
The female assistant’s first reaction was to call Mike to ask whether to book only one ticket for Mr Howard or to include the other passenger, Susie , and book two tickets.
However, the phone rang just twice before the other end hung up.
The female assistant didn’t dare to ask Ansel directly . In addition , Mike just said that the tickets must be needed urgently. After much hesitation, she finally booked two tickets.
The reason is very sufficient –
Mr Howard couldn’t be going to the Maldives to discuss business, right?
Since we are traveling, we must bring our girlfriend along.
Well, two should be correct!
