Chapter 863 - Nonsense (2)

The topic gradually shifted to Sydnee and Eliot. Sydnee said that Eliot adopted a stray dog. Because the dog had been beaten up by many people before, it took them almost two months to get close to it. Then, Sydnee took out the photo and showed the dog's picture to Emily and the others. It was a golden retriever who was lying in the middle of Sydnee and Eliot.

Emily looked at Sydnee who was smiling happily in the photo and suddenly thought of Sydnee in her previous life. At that time, Sydnee ended her short and tragic life with a sad text at the tea manor.

At that time, Eliot learned a lot of things from Sydnee. Sydnee told her about the bitterness of love, the betrayal of a man and the unfaithful marriage, as well as the complexity of society and the sinister hearts of people. Every time Sydnee talked about it, she would cry aloud...

But in this life, when Eliot saw Sydnee acting like a naive girl in front of her, Eliot could not help but gently hug Sydnee.

Sydnee hugged her back, and the others also gently hugged them.

"What are we doing? Are we lesbians?" asked Janessa.

They all laughed.

The robot Eleven stood in a corner while its pair of gray gem eyes were recording this scene.

Armando and Jaquan also finished peeling the things in their hands. Randy was fanning himself as he counted them one by one. Then he suddenly threw his fan. "I'm crazy! I'm counting these things here!"

"Now you see it?" Ferne held the watermelon in his hands and looked back at Randy.

Randy rolled his eyes and leaned over. "Give me a taste."

Ferne dug a spoonful and handed it to Randy. "Noah just ate some."

Randy quickly covered his mouth and took a few steps back.

"Noah, Randy dislikes you." Ferne raised an eyebrow.

"Nonsense! I just don't like your saliva!"

Noah stopped playing chess and looked up at the watermelon. There was indeed only one spoon inside, and the other spoon seemed to be in Vincent's hand.

"..."

Noah wondered why he had the illusion that Ferne had fed him with another new spoon.

When Ferne saw Noah look over, he thought that Noah still wanted to eat. Ferne then gave another spoonful of watermelon to Noah. As the watermelon juice almost spilled out, Ferne quickly took a sip.

Noah was speechless.

When it was almost evening, everyone left.

Since Ferne was busy that day, no one forced him to drink. It was just a toast. After all, it was the opening day. Ferne shouldn't drink too much.

After the party, Ferne and Eliot went to a private room to discuss the tea cooperation. Originally, Eliot was planning to give it away for free, but Ferne felt that since it was a cooperation, they had to do it formally, so Ferne asked Eliot to bring the contract, and the two sides officially cooperated this way.

Armando and Janessa went out for a walk. Since Janessa had stayed in City Y every day and didn't go elsewhere, and it was not easy to see Armando taking a break, Armando decided to go to Happisland City with Janessa. Before the two left, Armando booked a couple meal for the night. He said that he would eat it after shopping, and it was at ten o'clock at night.

Sydnee was waiting outside for Eliot to finish talking with Ferne before leaving. Lynn was waiting by the side. Emily accompanied her for a while and asked if Lynn wanted to go to her place at night. Sydnee whispered to Emily, "If it was any other time, it would be fine. Why would Lynn go to your place today?"

As Emily was about to ask why, she saw Sydnee point to somewhere behind her. She turned around and saw that many girls in the hall were carrying red roses out with happy expressions.

Then Emily realized that it was Valentine's Day.

Stephanie had rushed over early in the morning, so she was a little sleepy. She then booked a room and went to sleep. The bottle of red wine at noon was only drunk by Ferne, Randy and Stephanie. Emily realized that Stephanie was a drinker. At least, when they chatted after dinner, Stephanie could stay sober.

The others dispersed and left. When Emily held Vincent's hand and walked out of the hotel, she immediately felt the cold air outside.

"It's so cold." Emily shrank her neck.

"Do you want to get in the car or walk around?" Vincent put her hat on and then put the scarf around her.

"Go home and watch the movie." Emily thought of the movie they had just talked about and really wanted to watch it.

"What movie?"

"The Redemption of Shawshank. Have you watched it?"

"No," Vincent shook his head.

"Great, let's watch it together."

"Alright."

Emily liked to wrap herself in a blanket when watching a movie. She even preferred to wear her pajamas after a shower and wrap herself in a blanket. When Vincent finished his shower, he saw that she was lying on the sofa wrapped in a blanket and staring at the TV screen with bright eyes.

Rex retrieved something from outside and handed it over. Vincent frowned slightly. "What is it?"

"From Mr. Addison." Rex opened the box, took out a series of shells and conch, then took out a card and handed it to Vincent.

Vincent didn't take the card. "Read it."

The lights in the living room were turned off. Before night fell, there was only the moonlight on the balcony. Rex read out what he saw in the dim light. "Dear ... brother, it should be New Year by the time you receive the gift. No, maybe it is already Valentine's Day. Then I wish you and Emma a happy Valentine's Day! Guess where I am?"

Rex checked both sides and then said, "That's all."

Vincent glanced at the box and said, "Put it there."

Rex nodded and was about to say something. Then Vincent said, "You can leave."

"Get it."

"Including them." Vincent glanced at the figures in the dark.

The guards were speechless.

Guard 1 thought, 'He wants to do something evil!'

Guard 2 thought, 'I begin to think about it.'

Guard 3 thought, 'Today is Valentine's Day. Maybe I want to do something different.'

Guard 4 thought, 'What a man.'

Rex was speechless.

The movie had already started. Emily was lying on the sofa, and the lights in the living room had all been turned off, leaving only a lamp with a soft glow.

Vincent walked over and pulled her into his arms before looking at the screen with her.

"He killed her wife." Emily said seriously, and she analyzed the plot from time to time, "He should be drunk and has no idea what he is doing at all."

Life in prison was something that Emily had never come into contact with. She stared at it intently. Occasionally, her gaze paused as if she had thought of someone. Later, she continued looking at the screen.

There were fruits and pastries on the table and a can of colorful fruit candy.

Emily reached out and took out a piece of candy. When she put it into her mouth, she found that it was strawberry flavored.

Halfway through the movie, Vincent lowered his head and kissed her. The strawberry-flavored candy completely dissolved, and her mouth was filled with the sweet smell of strawberries. She clung to his arm and whispered, "The movie is not over yet..."

"Later." Vincent's voice had already become hoarse, and when it was erotic to her.

Emily felt that Vincent was perfect, but at times, he was not very good. At times, she could not believe a single word of what he said. Words like "later", "wait" and so on were just a lie.

"Later" meant she had to wait for an entire night.
