"I know I may have you misunderstood us these days," Andrew smiled apologetically as he explained, "Savannah and I are just friends. I have a crush on someone else, and she went out to dinner with me because I asked her to help me approach that girl."
Dylan figured out what was going on, but he didn't have much time to care about others. He looked at Elisa, frowning.
"Could she have just gone out for fun," he asked. "Her phone battery was dead, so she didn't contact you."
He just annoyed her terribly in her dorm today. The little woman was probably just so angry that she went out and forgot about the time?
"No, Savannah never stays out at night. She'd rather spend time in the library than in a bar, but the library closed early. We've agreed to tell each other in advance if any of us will be back very late at night, so as not to make each other worried. Even if the phone is out of power, it's not difficult to borrow a phone, is it?" Elisa was more and more excited while speaking. Andrew held her hand and touched her back softly.
Without more hesitation, Dylan changed and went out in a hurry.
"Where're you going?" Elisa asked busily.
"Police station," he replied in a low voice with a gloomy face.
After all, they were not in LA. He came to Milan this time with limited hands, and it would not be easy to find Savannah by his strength, so it was better to turn to the police.
The police in southern Europe had been slow to act. The case about an a.d.u.l.t-like Savannah, who had been missing for less than 24 hours, was unlikely to be able to file a case, so he had to go in person.
Elisa and Andrew followed quickly.
As they walked out of the hotel, Dylan pulled open the door of his car and got into it, rushing out into the night.
Elisa tried to get Andrew to follow her, but Andrew grabbed her and said reassuringly, "leave it to Mr. Sterling. Don't worry. Savannah will be fine. We'd just go back and wait for his news."
Elisa paused.
Savannah's man was not only powerful in LA, but the police in Milan also respected him a lot.
Savannah must be fine if Mr. Sterling went in person.
She would only cause trouble if she rushed to the police.
Finally, Elisa pressed the suspended heart back to its place and nodded.
Andrew took her by the hand and led her to his car.
After making up with Andrew and looking for Savannah for a whole night, Elisa was tired. She relaxed in Andrew's car and began to feel heaviness in her eyelids. Gradually she fell asleep.
When she opened her eyes again, she realized it was not the way back to school.
"Didn't you take me back to school?" Elisa, startled, sat up straight.
Andrew's pretty, thin lips curved into a half-smile.
"My suite's more comfortable than the hard bed in your dorm. There are a bathtub, hot water, and a soft bed," he said in a husky voice.
Elisa stared at him, suddenly blushed. To his hotel?
Although they didn't meet for the first time, she could say it was the first day they started to know each other. Was it proper for her to go to the hotel with him for the night?
The car stopped at the entrance of a well-equipped hotel.
A waiter came up and opened the door, politely welcoming the distinguished guest back in standard and fluent English, "Sir, welcome back."
Andrew led Elisa out of the car and dropped the key to the waiter.
The night breeze was a little cool. After a few steps, Andrew stopped, took off his coat, and threw it over Elisa's shoulders.
Elisa grasped his coat, blushing slightly. But before she could say anything, Andrew had held her into the hotel.
They took the lift to the top floor.
Andrew swiped his access card and led Elisa into the deluxe suite.
The suite was large and luxuriously-furnished. Through the French window wall, you could have a view of the entire night scene of the city.
"Uuuhhhh," Elisa was filled with wonder at the calm, beautiful scene. Andrew gently hugged her from behind and laid his head on her shoulder.
"Andrew..." She blushed and dared not move.
"Elisa, I've been expecting you for four years." His voice was low and gentle, melting her heart.
Four years ago, he was led away by a brisk cry of help from below a chasm, and he saw her.
The moment he stooped down and met the eyes of the girl, he was doomed to lose himself.
The girl's eyes were as beautiful as the clearest spring water he had ever seen.
Unfortunately, he even didn't have time to have more words with her.
He came to the mountain for the raw gemstones alone, and he knew his family would send people looking for him. After all, he was the only son of his parents, and they always took him as a little boy.
So, when he heard the familiar voice of the servants and bodyguards, he had to leave in a hurry, not even asking her for her name and contact information.
He thought it was fate.
Elisa's face seemed to light up as he hugged her.
The happiest time for her was when she was around the person she liked.
And the luckiest thing was that the one she'd been waiting for was also waiting for her.
However, she was still worried about Savannah and was not in the mood to talk more. She turned around and said, "Time for bed…"
"Oh, you seem to be anxious to sleep with me," Andrew teased.
"I didn't mean that." Elisa blushed. She was never embarrassed when she talked about the things between men and women with Savannah, but she was too shy in front of Andrew.
After all, she never had had any romantic or s.e.x.u.a.l experiences before.
Andrew, sensing her embarrassment, smiled and pinched her nose gently.
"Well," he said. "Don't be shy, or you'll be shyer when you live in my house in the summer vacation."
"In your house? No…It's not convenient to live in your home..." Elisa stammered, "Your parents won't agree."
