Totally concentrated on listening and watching the delicious meals on table, everyone else does not notice what the second point is.
“Well, let’s start.” Sunny Ellen sees their reaction and says. In fact, she feels a little bit tired and pinches the middle between eyebrows, then being the first one to have some food.
“Oh, Little Sunny, you made so yummy food!” Troy Viktor says to Sunny with sincerity.
But this nickname makes Kevin unhappy. He says, “Excuse me? What name did you call?”
“I…I call her Little Sunny. Any other nicknames?” Troy looks confused and feels falsely commented by Kevin.
“Call her true name please!” Kevin says.
…Troy answered, “Hi, we are best friends.”
“Stop! Just call me Sunny and please enjoy your meal.”
Sunny believes she is a nursery teacher who is helping kids having some food.
However, these “kids” would not like to listen to her but talk back, “I know.”
After the dinner, Sunny asks Troy to stay for a while.
“Do you remember the voice calling you yesterday?” Sunny asks.
It occurs to Troy that the call does not leave any good impression on him.
“I think her voice was adjusted on the phone, not her real voice. What she only said is why I am still alive?” Troy says.
“I can imagine how furious she was when she was talking like that. But I don’t know what was following after that.”
Troy’s reply is similar to what he told Kevin before. Now Kevin is also here to have a nod.
Sunny continues, “We are sure, it was also Bella Hawkins calling you yesterday. Now we have to make her confess it or accumulate the evidences about her deed. Then we can sue her.”
It is not Sunny who should deal with those issues. But from her point of view, Bella has truly brought her a lot of sufferings even much more than she knows.
Therefore, she decides to accumulate all evidences about Bella’s doing to her by herself.
Just this moment, Kevin gets a call. He does not answer it immediately. With watching on the phone, he looks excited as well a little scared.
A few seconds later, he answered the call with hesitation.
“Hello. Ellison…”
Ellison Quinn, his elder half-brother, is calling him.
“Kevin. How are things going? Do you usually go to see Jonathan for detox?”
In fact, just from his call, Kevin realizes he has not been there for some time.
“I am alright. Take it easy, brother. I see Jonathan every day.” He answers.
The answer comes from Ellison’s phone speaker. He watches Jonathan by side who gives him a shrug, being gloomy.
“Do you? What are you doing of late?”
“Ellison, do you know my wife and daughter come back?” Kevin flaunts it with joy.
It causes Ellison feel a little annoyed. He says, “I know it.”
So, is this the reason that you do not have detox treatment?
Ellison asks, “Where are you now? I need to see you.”
Kevin glances at Sunny and replies, “At Troy’s home. What’s up?”
“Stay there. I am going soon.”
“Where is Kelly? Has she not met Sunny for long time?”
“See. She will go with me.”
Listening to this, Kevin holds up the call with smile.
He says to those watching him, “It’s Ellison. He has been back to China and is coming to talk with me.”
Troy asks with full of expectation, “He is coming? Right?”
Kevin has a look at Baron who feels disturbed but nods slowly, “Yes.”
Troy is more excited about it and keeps talking, “Is he on the way?”
Kevin reminds him, “Yes. Now please calm down. Look at you!”
“I see. I see.” Troy answers.
Finally, Baron cannot help asking Troy, “Are you so excited?”
“...”
Right now, Troy tries to cool himself down and turns to look normal, “No. I just do admire him. Nothing else.”
The more one tries to hide, the more it is exposed!
Everyone here knows exactly what it is about Troy.
Then Macie Ellen asks Kevin, “Your brother is the same good looking as you?”
Kevin feels happy for being given credit for that. Just the moment, Sunny says, “That one looks better than this one.”
......
Kevin thinks he is wrongly commented by Sunny and feels not happy about it.
When there is someone knocking at the door, they have a look at each other. All of them do not expect Ellison to come here so soon.
