Embarrassed
A savior! Jason was definitely a savior.
When I thought about how I was going to be sent back to the Brown family, I felt terrified. Old Madame Brown wanted to torture me everyday.
"Have you been with Jason these days?" Abdi asked me.
It was a little dark in the car, so I couldn't see his expression clearly. I answered seriously, "Not really."
Abdi said mockingly, "Kelly, you are really good at seeking a backer. Don't make any rumors at that time. It will disgrace the Smith family!"
"Ah?" I was confused by his words. "How do I embarrass the Smith family again?"
"Your husband is dead, and you have an affair with your husband's assistant. Isn't it shameful?" said Abdi as he slowly rolled down the window.
Jason was already waiting there. He glanced at the car and said after seeing me, "Mr. Smith, I'm here to pick up Mrs. Carroll."
His words were polite and respectful.
When he was at home, he giggled and laughed, and he was somewhat like Carroll at this time.
Abdi seemed to have no intention of letting me get out of the car. There was a hint of sarcasm in his words. "Jason, you seem to be idle after Mr. Carroll died. Your attention is focused on my little sister."
Jason just smiled and said, "Since Mr. Carroll has died, Mrs. Carroll is my master. It's not wrong for a person like me to follow my master."
"Can't you be wrong?" Abdi snorted coldly, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Hide her and let Old Madame Brown ask for her. Is this something right?"
"Mr. Smith, I'll give Old Madame Brown an explanation." As he said this, he took out his mobile phone and played a voice message.
It was the voice of Joey. "Since Mrs. Carroll wants to stay in the Sky City temporarily, let her do it. As long as nothing goes wrong, Old Madame Brown won't interfere too much."
I heaved a long sigh of relief. Finally, I didn't have to go back and look at Old Madame Brown's straight face.
"Big brother." I poked Abdi's shoulder with one finger. "Well, can I go home?"
Crack.
The door was unlocked. Before Jason came to open the door, I ran out of the car. I didn't forget to wave to Abdi and said, "Goodbye, big brother. Thank you, big brother."
"Give it to her." Abdi threw Jason a leather paper bag through the window.
Jason held it in his hand and weighed it. "I'll hand it over to Mrs. Carroll."
After returning to Jason's car, I finally felt relieved.
"Jason, my savior, you don't know that I was scared to death just now. I was scared when I thought that Nathan was going to throw me into the fire last time. How did you know that I was here?"
"Mrs. Carroll, we can locate your cell phone. The bodyguards on Cultural Tourism Street found that you were no longer there and went to retrieve the surveillance video. Mr. Carroll has already known the details of the matter."
Jason said as he opened the bottle of mineral water in the car and handed it to me.
Mr. Carroll knew it.
Feeling a little guilty, I asked timidly, "I was really brave. I just met that cold-faced big brother of mine."
"Mr. Smith has never been to a place like this before. I'm sure he was there to visit you today."
After hearing Jason's words, I didn't understand. Before today, he didn't even know who I was. How could he come to see me?
I pursed my lips and muttered, "He can't wait to send me back to Phoenix Village."
"If that's the case, the Smith family won't be able to get the support of the Brown family." Jason laughed and handed me the leather paper bag which had just been given to him by Abdi. "Madam, Mr. Smith gave it to you."
This...
The touch and package were familiar.
This was money!
I opened it and saw a stack of neat money inside. It seemed that it was the stack of money that I asked the bodyguard to send back.
Did he come to me just to give me money?
I couldn't figure it out.
But, I would take the money because he wanted to send me to old Old Madame Brown.
I estimated that if I sent it back, my stubborn big brother wouldn't want it.
When I returned to Sky City and changed my shoes.
Carroll's slippers were no longer there, and as such, I began to look around for him.
Finally, I stopped at the door of the half-closed study and pushed the door open. "Mr. Carroll."
I coyly crawled into his arms. "Mr. Carroll, you know what? I was scared just now. If I were sent back to Bamboo Pavilion, I might be thrown into the fire by your brother again."
Carroll's expression froze, and his originally cold eyes gradually shone with a soft light. He held me in his arms and gently stroked my long hair. "Are you afraid of fire?"
I nodded hard. "Yes. I was almost burned to death in the fire of the delivery room when I was born."
My voice became soft as soon as I saw Carroll. In addition, I had just been wronged, so my voice was even softer.
Hearing this, Carroll smiled and said, "You have such a good memory."
I was speechless.
I paused for a moment and then pursed my lips in dissatisfaction. "Anyway, I'm just afraid. I've suffered so much, and you're still making fun of me. I don't like you anymore."
"Oh? Then how can I let you like me again?" His clear index finger played with my long hair, and he was very happy, so he didn't say it so seriously.
I pulled my hair out of his palm and said coquettishly, "Ice cream, I want ice cream. Take me to buy it."
"Well, Mr. Carroll, sorry to disturb you. Today's meeting..."
Someone suddenly spoke the poor language in my country on the computer. I looked in the direction of the voice and found that there were nine pictures on the screen.
The picture of Carroll holding me just happened to be in the center.
I was shocked.
I jumped out of his arms and asked, "You... What are you doing?"
"A video conference." Carroll leaned back in her chair, as if nothing had happened.
"Then why didn't you tell me earlier? Please open the door. I'm leaving!" After that, I slammed the door and left.
My face was completely red. So many people were watching me carry Carroll in my arms and act like a spoiled child.
It was really embarrassing.
Carroll was just watching the show, wasn't he?
"Young Madam, what's wrong with you?" Rose came back with a lot of flowers in her arms. Seeing that I kicked hard on the shoe-changing stool at the door, she asked in confusion.
"It's nothing. I was embarrassed just now." I stretched out my hand and took the flower seedlings from her hand. Looking carefully, I found that it was jasmine.
Rose put on her shoes and widened her eyes. "Who made you embarrassed? Let Mr. Carroll kill him."
I sighed feebly. "What if it's Mr. Carroll?"
Rose was obviously stunned. She smiled awkwardly and pointed to the balcony. "Young Madam, why don't we plant flowers?"
Look.
I knew this would be the result. No one could control Mr. Carroll at all.
The flower pots were sent by the bodyguard at the door in the daytime. There were all kinds of flower pots, and there was nutrient soil in them. We just needed to plant the flower seedlings directly.
I stopped talking and buried the flower seedlings with a shovel. I looked at them carefully and said, "I'll be able to eat the desserts made of jasmine next month."
"Oh? Is it eatable?" A cold voice sounded above my head. I didn't know when, but the person behind me had become Carroll.
Rose was annoying.
I didn't bother to raise my head and said with anger, "Yes, but I can't guarantee whether it's poisonous or not."
"Kelly, you have to be arrested for murdering your husband." A hand-made ice cream appeared in front of me with his smile.
