Evan Bell stood on the stairs on the third floor, looking at Edward Schmidt and Dibs Francis, he didn't move his footsteps, because it was too unexpected, this was the first time he was at home See the shadows of the suitors. Moreover, these two people are Catherine Bell's suitors. Usually Evan Bell does not have much time at home, and Teddy Bell is also very busy. Only Eden Hudson communicates with them a little more. Evan - Bell really didn't know what to say to them.
Just as Evan Bell was thinking about what to say, Catherine Bell appeared at the door of the room, holding a book in her hand, and said in the direction of the two men, "Edward, sorry, I haven't been able to find the book 'Reminiscence of the Past'."
Catherine Bell also found that both men were looking at the stairs, and while talking, they looked at the stairs reflexively, "Oh, Evan, you're back."
Evan Bell discovered that Catherine Bell had just come out of her room, and with the book in her hand, it was estimated that Catherine Bell should have gone to his room to find a book. Because Evan Bell often piles books at home, two bookshelves are not enough, so many books are stacked on the smaller bookshelf in Evan Bell's room.
"How's the premiere? Is the movie okay?" Catherine Bell was habitually concerned about Evan Bell's situation first. When she saw Evan Bell's gaze drifting towards the hall, Kathryn Bell couldn't help it. With a smile, she knew that the specific situation could wait for a while before the two of them talked. There are still guests present, "By the way, let me introduce you." Evan Bell walked in the direction of Catherine Bell, the two mother and son. Standing side by side at the door of the room, then walked over to the sofa, "This is Dibbs Francis, that's Edward Schmidt. This is my youngest son, Evan." Katherine Bell was the first of the two The next meeting is introducing.
The first to reach out was Edward Schmidt, who was standing at the far end. "Nice to meet you. You can call me Ed." When he said this, Edward Schmidt also glanced at Katherine Bell, It seems to be quite critical of Katherine Bell's insistence on calling him "Edward".
Dibbos-Francis stood beside him, although he didn't speak, his expression was very generous and calm. Compared with the shyness and restraint in front of Katherine Bell, Dibos-Francis was much more comfortable when facing Evan Bell, "Dibos-Francis, it's an honor to meet you."
When Evan Bell shook hands with the two men, Catherine Bell said, "During dinner today, Dibbos was very interested in 'Hundred Years of Solitude', so I came back to find him the original Spanish book I didn't expect to meet Edward at the door, and he said he wanted to borrow the original French version of 'Reminiscence of the Past'."
After listening to Katherine Bell's simple explanation, Evan Bell suddenly showed an expression of sudden realization.
"So... Edward, have you been waiting at the door for a long time?" Evan Bell grabbed the point of Catherine Bell's conversation just now. It seems that Catherine Bell should have had dinner with Dibs-Francis tonight, while Edward Schmidt was an uninvited guest. After waiting for a long time at 11 Princes Street, it was blocked to send Catherine Bell home. Dippers-Francis.
Edward Schmidt was not embarrassed by the trick at all, but said lightly, "It is my honor to have the opportunity to wait for the lady." It can be felt that in order to pursue Katherine Bell, he worked very hard, and also very patient.
At this time, Evan Bell had the opportunity to seriously look at Edward Schmidt. In fact, when the two met for the first time, Evan Bell sighed that Edward Schmidt's skin is indeed excellent, and his age is not He did not take away his male charm, but settled between his eyebrows, becoming more and more charming. However, today Evan Bell is looking at it from another angle. It turns out that "William Bell" looks like this...
This is the first time Evan Bell has seen this gentleman since he knew that Edward Schmidt and William Bell looked exactly alike. William Bell, for the Bell brothers, really has no special meaning, because in their lives, this nominal father has never appeared, and Catherine Bell rarely mentions it, so William Bell is For them, it is a stranger, without missing, without hatred and without any superfluous emotions. But since childhood, the two brothers have never seen William Bell, let alone photos, not even a word about him. Catherine Bell did not say anything, and the two brothers were not curious. When Evan Bell saw Edward Schmidt who looked exactly like William Bell again, he sighed. It was the man with this appearance who worked hard with Katherine Bell to bring the Bell brothers to this world. .
The "William Bell" in front of him is not only a handsome guy with a good skin, but his expression and charm are even more dazzling. A good pair of skins can become a handsome vase, but because of different personal aesthetic views, it cannot win everyone's love; but the temperament is different, a person's aura and posture is what makes people get rid of the prejudice of aesthetic views, The core factor of its admiration. "William Bell" seems to be such a man, he stood there quietly with a smile, but the flying between his eyebrows made people involuntarily look sideways.
No wonder, no wonder then that Katherine Bell rushed towards William Bell like a moth to a flame.
Edward Schmidt was a little embarrassed and a little uncomfortable to be stared at by Evan Bell, which is really rare. As an old lover of Game Flowers, being cheeky is also one of the necessary elements. What's more, he has already seen countless people at this age, so how could he panic because of the gaze of a 20-year-old boy? Evan Bell in front of him, in fact, his eyes are not too aggressive, just with a kind of indifferent inquiry, but it is this peaceful look that makes Edward Schmidt a little flustered, which is really abnormal.
However, Evan Bell's eyes didn't stay on Edward Schmidt's body for too long, he quickly turned his head to look at Dibbos Francis, "Mr. Francis, do you like the book 'A Hundred Years of Solitude'? "
Dibbos Francis cast his eyes flatly on Evan Bell, the expression on his face was a little stiff, but he didn't know if he was always like this, or because he was too nervous at this time, "Yes, but I have only read English before. Translation, but I have always been very curious about the original Spanish, but unfortunately I have been out of school for many years and have no time to read further. Today, I heard Catherine mention that you are a book lover, and there happened to be the original Spanish version of 'Hundred Years of Solitude', so I thought Borrow it."
Dibbs-Francis speaks very flatly, without too much ups and downs. If it were not for him to be a true American, Evan Bell would think that he should be Mr. Darcy in Jane Austen's writings, from "arrogant". and prejudice" novel. Of course, Mr. Darcy's arrogance is not obvious in Dibbos-Francis. It is more of a mature male self-confidence. Evan Bell thought, it should be tempered by the work of the district attorney.
"Spanish really messed me up. I read the book 'One Hundred Years of Solitude' for almost a year, and I didn't finish reading it until August this year. But believe me, it's really worth it. "Evan Bell said with a smile, people who love books can always find a common language easily.
Dibbos-Francis smiled and did not speak. He was obviously a person who spoke relatively slowly, with relatively long pauses between words and words. Therefore, before waiting for Dibs-Francis to continue to answer, Edward Schmidt's voice interjected, "Catherine, did you just say that you didn't find the book?" Transferred to Katherine Bell. It can be felt that Edward Schmidt seems to be a little afraid of continuing to communicate with Evan Bell, and he himself can't figure out why, when the two met for the first time, he obviously didn't feel this way.
Catherine Bell was standing by the side just now, watching her son talk skillfully without interjecting. At this time, the topic was thrown to her, she was stunned, and then she reacted, "Yes, I didn't find it. Evan... "
Evan Bell didn't wait for Catherine Bell to finish the question before he knew what he meant, "Are you looking for the French version of 'Reminiscence of the Past'?" Catherine Bell noddedEdward -Schmidt just smiled and didn't answer. Evan Bell looked at his mother and said, "I was taken to LA by Eden." Then he turned to Edward Schmidt, smiled and said, "I'm really sorry. But I still have 'human comedy' here. The original French version, if you're interested."
Hearing Evan Bell's words, the corners of Edward Schmidt's mouth twitched involuntarily, and the smile in the eyes of Dibbos Francis next to him immediately came up.
"Human Comedy", a novel written by Balzac, one of the greatest French writers in the nineteenth century, is indeed a very important work in the history of literature. But the point is that this is not a novel, but a set of novels. "Human Comedy" includes a total of 91 novels. Although "Reminiscence of the Past" is already very heavy, "Human Comedy" is even more important. exaggerate. If Edward Schmidt went back with "Human Comedy", it would definitely be a huge project.
Edward Schmidt couldn't tell whether Evan Bell was targeting himself, because Evan Bell's tone did not contain any malicious emotions, but if it was just a little humor, Edward Schmidt also I don't think so. In desperation, he could only laugh hoarsely and use his laughter to smooth things out.
