The phone vibrated, and it was Christy calling.
"What's wrong?" Noah swiped to answer the phone.
"Just now, an anonymous sent an envelope to the city bureau. It contains a murder list of the kids we previously rescued and a petition co-signed by tens of thousands of parents..." Christy paused and said to Noah in a broken voice, "I would definitely give you a big hug if you were here, Noah. Can you believe it? We did it! We keep doing the same thing in these years ..."
"Yes, we did it." Noah nodded, "Branden can't go anywhere this time."
"I know." Christy sniffed, "I was getting carried away. The case is closed, and it was as if you are relieved of a heavy load. Now I lose my life goal, and suddenly, I don't know what to do next."
"Isn't that good news?" Noah smiled delightedly, "Who was bitching about her busy and fulfilling life then? And now you're telling me that you have nothing to do?"
When Christy and Noah moved to Fuji Garden, she was overwhelmed with work. It took her a lot of effort to make Trevor walk out of his room. Christy also did many things to help Trevor stay strong and healthy, and she even learned the computer work helping Trevor. Christy was a beginner, so she worked rather slowly. Thousands of people wanted to commit suicide in the world. This was beyond Christy's imagination.
Before Christy met Trevor, she didn't know that a person could be such low-key even when he was doing a big thing to serve the country. In her eyes, although Trevor wasn't as charming as the other men, he was just like the first ray of sunshine in the morning, sneaking into people's life and sacrificing himself to warm them.
Maybe he didn't feel lonely because Eleven would always be his friend. Christy knew that inside the little robot's chip were Trevor's memories and emotions. They shared everything in their lives. Christy saw Eleven projecting the image of Trevor's childhood on the wall when she sat by Trevor's bed during his sleep.
There was endless darkness on the screen without any sound and images. Trevor sat alone in drapery for a long time, and no one could see through his mind. There was only the little robot silently by his side.
Whenever Christy saw this scene, her eyes couldn't help brimming with tears. She didn't know if those were tears of sympathy or sadness. It was complicated, and it was killing her. She didn't even know how to face him. Sometimes, she even suspected whether it was right or wrong to drag him into this terrible world.
Trevor was friendly to Christy no matter what she did.
Trevor hadn't spoken anything all these years and never stepped out of his room, but finally, he did it for Christy. He had never basked in the sun, but he tried hard to do it just for spending time with Christy under the sun.
He even cooked for Christy. Although the food was not that satisfying, Christy finished them all.
Trevor liked to watch Christy eat. He once said that the way she ate would make people happy and appetizing. One time, Trevor felt hungry after watching her eat.
Noah would go there once a week and fill up the fridge with some food and drinks. Sometimes he would go to the supermarket and buy some food. Trevor couldn't go out shopping at the time, so Christy stayed with him. Actually, she could do her job. But it was strange that she always stuck with Trevor since she moved in.
Trevor had been solitary for the past twenty years, and she wouldn't let him be like this anymore.
"It doesn't matter. I was just babbling." Christy suddenly lowered her voice and asked, "How's thing going between you and Mr. Ferne? Do you hit the third base?"
Noah fell silent.
"Well, I got a bottle of new olive oil. It's in my drawer." Christy teased.
Noah remained silent.
"We're both grown up. Take it easy, man." Christy whispered, "I heard that gay sex is very comfortable."
Noah couldn't stand her anymore, and he said with a long face, "What kind of things are in your mind?"
Christy made faces at him, "Stop being demure," and she changed the subject, "Have you seen the news about the Heytons?"
"I saw it. The Heytons was screwed." Noah tapped on the keyboard, and the interface popped up with news about the Heytons. It was all negative news, including that the board directors were discussing how to sell the Granding Group at a low price. Many shareholders also sold the shares at the bottom of the market.
Noah clicked open the introduction of Kamron, doing an honest review, "Kamron was the single child in the Heyton, but unluckily, he was a loser. If he could do one good thing, there was a chance for the Heyton. This time, when Jackson was in trouble, I'm afraid that the Heyton can't recover this time."
Christy sighed, "I became more positive towards Emily. How could she think of such a detailed plan in such a small brain? It's even logical."
"Emily once suffered that kind of loss, so she has learned her lesson." At this time, Ferne finished brushing his teeth and came out. He probably got freaked out, so he took a glance at Noah and then went straight to the living room. After a while, he yelled, "It's your turn."
Noah didn't say anything.
