Miguel thought about something but didn't say anything. Leena watched for a long time, but she didn't see half of her brother's figure. It seemed that he was really far away.
Miguel said, "Let's go back. He will come out one day. He hasn't shown up for so long because he has made up his mind to avoid you. It's useless for you to wait. "
"He must have come back to see my mother. He knows today is my mother's birthday, but why doesn't he come out? My mother misses him very much! "
Leena was still out of control.
Miguel comforted, "He must have his own difficulties. "
Later, Leena and Miguel went back, but she didn't tell her mother about her meeting with Peterson, in case her mother was sad. Her mother had been looking forward to him for 9 years, but he didn't go home. Did joining the Empire Group embarrass him so that he didn't even dare to see his family? In fact, he could go home without saying anything, but why didn't he go home? He must miss home very much, too. Just like now, he was only lingering at the entrance of the alley and didn't dare to go in. Leena couldn't figure it out.
After dinner, they went back to the apartment. In the car, Miguel suddenly mentioned something, "In fact, your brother... I can help him. Have I told you about it before? "
Leena turned to look at him. Miguel continued, "I said my brother had some contact with the people from the Empire Group. He could save your brother, but you have to cooperate. "
"What do you want me to do? Leena asked.
Miguel hesitated for a long time, with his thin lips tightly closed. He even tightened his grip on the steering wheel with both hands, and his veins stood out. He stared ahead with burning eyes, which were a little terrifying. After thinking for a long time, he said, "You only need to see one person. "
Leena felt that he seemed to have made a great decision to say this. She couldn't help but look at him and asked, "Who? "
"He is..." He didn't finish his words. When he was hesitating, Spencer's car suddenly stopped. Seeing that, Miguel also stopped the car. He took a deep breath and said, "We're home. Let's get off! "
Rena had got off the car and ran excitedly to find Leena. Leena had to get off first. Originally, Leena wanted to ask Miguel to go upstairs and have a rest and make it clear, but Spencer looked at his watch and said, "It's too late. We're going back first, because there's a mobilization meeting in the morning to get up early. We'll come to see you tomorrow. "
Rena waved her hand and said, "Go back. I don't want you to go upstairs! "
Spencer said, "Ungrateful Rena, you don't even know how to thank me. At least I've been your driver for a day!" "
Rena talked back to Spencer again, and then they went back. Miguel didn't say anything. This time, he silently listened to Spencer's arrangement, and of course didn't mention the matter in the car.
Seeing Miguel leave, Leena sighed deeply. When she and Rena were about to go upstairs, they suddenly heard someone call her in the corner, "Leena! "
Leena looked around and saw a man in the dark corner. She didn't know who he was, but she was surprised as he walked out. She screamed in disbelief, "Peterson, it's you? "
