Chapter 801 - Three Times (2)

The guards took out a lace-like thing from the case. They took a look at the thing and put it back. At the same time, guard D noticed another object and took it out from the case. It looked like a furry rabbit tail.

"What is this for?" guard D asked.

Rex took a photo of the furry thing and searched it on the Internet. Then Rex blushed immediately and showed the web page to guard D.

Everyone blushed after seeing the web page, but no one commented.

Rex and the guards remained silent after coming out of the bedroom.

"Is everything okay?" Emily asked.

The guards immediately walked away when they saw Emily.

Emily was confused by the guards' reactions.

"We didn't sell the Dahongpao tea, as you said. So we barely get any profit from selling tea. The money we have now can only afford the rent after paying the workers' salary." Sydnee handed the money to Emily and noted it on the bill book.

Emily and Sydnee were handling the bills in the bedroom while everyone else was chatting on the couch.

"I like your room. It is well-decorated. My house still needs some decoration," Sydnee said.

Sydnee moved to her new home after engaging with Eliot. Since it was a brand new house, Sydnee wanted to decorate it nicely.

Let me know if you need help," Emily said while putting the money into the drawer. Then she noticed the case on the floor was opened. Emily bent down and opened the case.

"Are you okay? You seem a little surprised. What's in the box?" Sydnee asked.

Emily shook her head awkwardly. "I'm alright. There's nothing special. The guards should put this case in the warehouse." Then she carried the case and walked out of the room.

However, Vincent blocked Emily's way at the door.

Emily looked at Vincent without saying anything.

"Excuse me," Sydnee said and left with a smile.

Emily looked at Sydnee and intended to ask for help. But Sydnee rushed to the crowd before Emily started to speak.

"Mr. Vincent, this case is supposed to be in the warehouse," Emily said while holding the case against the door frame.

"What is it?" Vincent asked.

"It's nothing special," Emily answered awkwardly.

Vincent opened the case and took out the lace underwear. "Nothing special. Are you sure?" he asked.

Emily blushed.

"Fight or flight?" Emily wondered. After thinking for a while, Emily chose to fly. She was ready to run away, but Vincent blocked her way again.

Vincent took out the furry tail from the case. Then both of them froze at the door.

Vincent looked at the furry tail for a while and smiled. "Go take a shower. I'll send the guests off." He took the case from Emily and gently kissed her chin.

Emily didn't respond.

Ferne went home and got a call from Armando. "Is Vincent alright?" Armando asked.

"What do you mean? He is good. Everything is fine," Ferne replied.

"Vincent didn't pick up my call. I just want to say happy birthday to him, and I will give him the gift in person," Armando said.

"The birthday party is over" Ferne sighed and lied on the couch.

"The party is over?" Armando looked at the clock and said, "It was only nine o'clock."

"Yeah, Vincent ends the party early and turns off his phone. You can guess what he's going to do," Ferne giggled.

At the same time, Noah threw a towel to Ferne and said, "Go take a shower."

Ferne slowly got up from the couch while playing with the towel. "Anyway, you'd better call Vincent tomorrow at noon. Today is his birthday. I am sure he has something to do until midnight," Ferne said to Armando.

After finishing the call, Ferne asked Noah, "Do you know what's in the case?"

"Go take your shower," Noah said.

"I know. You say that many times." Ferne finally dragged his legs to the bathroom.

Then Noah went to tidy up the couch and worked out for a while.

"Can you guess what's in the case?" Ferne asked when he walked out of the bathroom.

Noah was jogging on the treadmill with his headphones on and didn't respond.

Ferne was blaming Noah in the living since Noah couldn't hear anything.

A few moments later, Christy and Trevor came to visit. However, Ferne's hands and legs were tied up already when they came in.

"Sorry. We come to the wrong place." Christy and Trevor walked away immediately.

Noah kept working out and didn't say anything.

Ferne didn't respond either.

Even though Randy's new house wasn't fully renovated, it was still a nice place to live. So, Jaquan would stay at Randy's home since he was drunk.

The guests were supposed to stay at Vincent's house. But Rex asked them to give more private time to Vincent and Emily.

The guests immediately got Rex's idea.

They understood that private time with Emily would be the best birthday gift for Vincent.

Since Randy invited people to visit his home, the guests left the party early.
