Chapter 895 Do you want to leave with me The person in charge thought for a while and replied, "I saw on the monitor that it was around 5:30 in the afternoon. | just sent the company's progress and data to him. He left not long after. Why are you asking this?" "I'm just curious. | have sent all the reports and data to your mailbox, and | put some unfinished data on the computer desktop.
You can check on it. | am very happy to be working together with you for such a long time." Mavis waved her hand to the person in charge and left the company.
Today's weather was a bit cloudy, which seemed to indicate her mood.
The person in charge arranged a car for her to take her back to the hotel, but Mavis refused.
She may not come back to this city and this country in the future, so she wanted to take a walk on the street to get a good feel for this place.
Beep-- A car honked at her on the side of the road. She stopped and saw Harrison and Emmeline getting out of the car.
Emmeline approached her with a smile and said, "Mavis, what are you going to do? Harrison and | came here specially to pick you up from work. | didn't expect you to come out so early." Looking into Emmeline's shining eyes, Mavis suddenly didn't know how to tell her that she was leaving here.
But based on what Harrison knew about Mavis, he could tell that Mavis had something on her mind.
"Are you leaving?" he asked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMavis nodded.
Emmeline was surprised, and asked, "Mavis, are you leaving now?" Mavis patted Emmeline's head, "It's a pleasure meeting you. You're a quick-witted friend. When you are free, let Harrison take you to Crana, and | will entertain you well." Emmeline knew that she couldn't change the fact that she was leaving, so her eyes were slightly red, and she held her hand with some reluctance.
"Mavis, | am also very happy to be friends with you. If it were not for your help, | am afraid that Harrison and | would not be together, thank you." Mavis and Emmeline hugged, "Okay, it's not like we won't see each other in the future. Finish your study, and then work hard on your jewelry design. I'm looking forward to the day you become a great jewelry designer." They stood under the shady tree and had a conversation. After that, Harrison and Emmeline sent Mavis back to the hotel.
At the hotel entrance, Emmeline waved her hand and said, "Mavis, | will miss you. We must keep in touch!" "Okay." Separated from Emmeline and Harrison, Mavis went upstairs to pack her things, feeling a little complicated.
She was expectant but with a trace of loss, and some unwillingness.
She didn't know exactly why she was unwilling.
* At the same time.
In a remote small fishing village, a handsome man dressed in a way that didn't match the local was taking the fish that had been dried on the fishing net outside.
Squeak-- As the door was opened, Jaqueline came out while tying her hair, and worked with him.
"Anthony, you just drove here. It's been so hard. How can | let you do this kind of thing? Go and rest firs. I'll do it." Jaqueline still had the fever patch he had brought on her forehead. Anthony got up and pushed her into the room.
"Recuperate well first. I'l come do it." Seeing the stain on the collar of his shirt, Jaqueline hurriedly took out a handkerchief around her waist and wiped it for him.
"Your clothes are expensive, right? You'd better stop that. If you get dirty, there will be no clothes for you to change this time." With this action, the two of them were a little closer and a little more intimate.
For no reason, Anthony felt inexplicably conflicted.
He took the handkerchief from Jaqueline and wiped the stain off the neckline himself.
Jaqueline sensed it.
She immediately had an aggrieved expression. Her lips were trembling slightly, and she stood silently aside without speaking.
Anthony looked up and saw her expression.
"What's wrong?" "Anthony, do you... dislike me for being sick, with germs on my hands, unclean?" When she said this, Jaqueline bit her lower lip tightly, as if she was extremely wronged, and her eyes continued to sparkle.
Anthony sighed, "You think too much. | have no other meaning. | just..." When he wanted to say something, Anthony suddenly couldn't explain it, and finally turned into silence.
At dinner time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJaqueline's grandma came back from the outside and saw Anthony. She looked him up and down and asked, "Stranger, when did you come here? How long have you known Jaqueline?" Hearing this, Jaqueline hurried forward to explain, "Grandma, do you still remember the person | saved at the seaside before? That was him. This time he heard that you were sick, so he wanted to come and see you." The old woman coughed twice, hit the ground heavily with her walking stick, and said loudly, "Jaqueline, people like us can't reach the upper class, so don't waste unnecessary emotions." Anthony said, "Grandma, she and | are friends. It is common for friends to help each other. Don't think too much about it. | won't hurt her." Unexpectedly, after hearing his words, the old woman scoffed at this.
"People in the city are used to saying those beautiful words. Jaqueline, have you forgotten about the daughter of Joe's family ? She just listened to the nonsense of people in the big city, and was deceived miserably in the end!" Seeing the tense and awkward atmosphere at the dinner table, Jaqueline could only serve her grandma food and change the subject, "Grandma, I'll take him outside to collect fishing nets. You eat first." After speaking, she pulled Anthony out.
The two walked all the way to the beach.
Atrace of helplessness appeared on Jaqueline's face.
"Anthony, don't blame my grandma for being gossipy. She is actually just worried that | will be cheated. She has no malicious intentions." Anthony sat down on the sand.
Looking at the waves crashing in front of him, he replied casually, "It's okay. She's also for your own good." After a pause, he continued sternly, "Actually, | came this time to ask you if you want to leave with me. Your talent and appearance can completely gain a foothold in a big city. Staying here is a waste of your best years." After she heard his words, Jaqueline's eyes flashed with an imperceptible emotion.
But she still showed embarrassment, "As you can see, my grandma has a lot of prejudice against city people. She was deceived by a certain city people back then. That's why she's like this. If | leave with you, then there is no one around her to take care of her. | can't be so selfish..." Jaqueline looked down, feeling very disappointed.
The sea breeze was cool, and Jaqueline felt a little cold, hugging her shoulders.
Anthony saw it, took off his coat and handed it to her.
"Thanks." She took it, put it on herself, and continued, "I know you are doing it for my own good, but | have to think about my grandma. If | didn't have her by my side these years, | really couldn't survive, so... sorry." There was a hint of stubbornness on her face, and Anthony knew he couldn't persuade her, so he simply stopped talking about it.
Neither of them spoke again.
There was only the sound of waves beating against the shore, and the cries of seagulls were heard overhead from time to time, rendering the night a bit poignant.
After sitting by the sea for a long time, Jaqueline took a deep breath, stood up, and stretched out her hand towards him...
