"I don't know how to face other people's eyes at all. When I think about it, I just... I feel uncomfortable. Anthony, what are we now?"
Worry and fear appeared on Jaqueline's fair face, as if something had already come.
When he saw her frightened like this, Anthony's mood became complicated, and he thought of Mavis again. The words he wanted to comfort her couldn't be uttered.
"Mavis won't do anything to you. She's not that kind of person."
Hearing this, Jaqueline turned her head away sadly. " Anthony, it seems that you know her well. I really envy her. It seems that I am not so lucky to have such a good husband as you."
Anthony's eyes dimmed, and he remained silent.
...
The shopping mall had everything. Jaqueline chose at will, and finally Anthony paid all the bills.
They came and went, but they didn't know that someone had been watching them behind them.
When Anthony walked away, Jaqueline's cell phone suddenly rang with a notification tone.
She saw the message.
It was sent by her adoptive father.
[Hurry up, I'm running out of patience. I don't know what I'll do when my patience runs out.]
Jaqueline's excitement just now was swept away, and she felt a chill from head to toe in an instant.
He did the things in the village.
It was too late to say anything, and it took a lot of trouble to threaten her.
Jaqueline had already felt the horror of his.
He really can do anything.
Jaqueline felt disgusted, but she had to do it. The massacre of almost the whole fishing village was a warning to her.
Jaqueline quickly replied. [I'll do it as soon as possible.]
At this moment, Anthony came back, looked at her holding up the phone, not looking well, "What's wrong?"
Jaqueline immediately looked worried and scared, "I don't know where you went. I'm so scared here alone. I wanted to call you. I..."
When Anthony heard it, he understood instantly. He looked at Jaqueline who was nervous, and frowned, "This place is different from the fishing village. Nothing will happen."
Anthony felt that Jaqueline had experienced too many changes all of a sudden.
Her grandmother died in the attack on the fishing village, and she suddenly arrived in a completely strange place, so it was normal to be frightened.
He looked at her mobile phone and hesitated for a long time.
Jaqueline could see that he had something to say. "If you have anything to say, just say it."
"Do you want to get a new phone. This phone looks a bit old..."
Cell phone?
Anything can be changed, but Jaqueline's mobile phone was still used to contact her adoptive father.
If it was replaced, the consequences will be disastrous.
Jaqueline refused his kindness. "No, I like this phone. After all, it can be used normally. I don't want to cost you any more money. Besides, there are precious memories of me in the fishing village in this phone. I don't want to change it."
Anthony heard about the precious memories, so he didn't say anything, and everything followed her wishes.
After returning to the apartment, Jaqueline looked at Anthony, as if she had something to say.
In the end, Jaqueline couldn't hold back. "I'm so scared every day. Anthony, I want to discuss with you. Can you just provide me with housing and job opportunities, or stop coming to me, or I really..."
Anthony just said, "Since I brought you here, I will be responsible for your life."
As a result, Jaqueline lost her temper, and said angrily, "I want to support myself. If you don't agree, I will leave!"
Anthony had a promise, so he had no choice but to agree to help her find a job. He would let Jaqueline go directly to Callahan Group, and arrange for her to be an assistant with very little to do.
At first, Anthony didn't tell her that she would have a little work to do.
As soon as Jaqueline heard that she would be an assistant, she felt that she was very useful, as if she had already started planning her career in her mind.
At this time, Jaqueline proposed again, "Anthony, I want a battery car to and from work. Is that okay?"
Hearing this, Anthony felt that she seemed to need a car, and it was convenient to get in and out the company with that.
When choosing a car, Jaqueline deliberately avoided expensive ones, but in this way, it seemed that none of them were pleasing to the eye.
After leaving the 4S store, Anthony asked, "You don't like them at all."
Jaqueline said directly, "These cars are very expensive at first glance. If I drive to work, someone will definitely gossip. I'm from a fishing village. How can I afford such a good car? Anthony, I know you are kind to me, but I really can't accept this."
