Come With Me novel Chapter 105

Before Annie answered, I walked over to her and intimately took her arm.

But Annie refused politely, "No, thanks. You can go back for dinner first. I'll go back immediately after I send the medicine."

I didn't let go of her hand. "I haven't talked to you for a long time. I miss you so much these days. Let me go with you, please."

As I spoke, I pulled Annie forward.

Annie's mouth twitched, but she acquiesced in.

I followed Annie to the gate of Jack's house. Before the fence, Annie didn't entered. Instead, she stood at the gate for a while.

"Annie, why don't you get inside?"

"Ah, let's go inside."

I didn't know why, but Annie still opened the door and took me in even though she hesitated to bring me in.

"Jack, are you home?"

Annie opened the door and walked in without hearing any reply.

Following Annie, I was curious. Actually, each house in the village was almost the same. They were no furniture since the village was poor. In good conditions, there would be some pairs of wardrobes and bad conditions, just like our house, were empty without furniture.

Jack's houses were pretty crude, with no decent furniture. The house was empty.

Annie put the medicine on the bed of the east house. Since there were no women in the east room, I opened the door of the west room impolitely. I then found that the west room was simple and there was no place to hide a person.

I thought I must have misheard that day. There was no so-called woman in this family.

"What are you looking at?"

"I'm just curious. This is my first time here."

"Hey, there is nothing to look at. The conditions of families here are similar which cannot be compared with that of yours. I saw some photos on the mobile phone of your crew the other day. The house, the furniture, are all the same as paintings, which are better than that of the emperor."

"Let's go. The crew are waiting for us. I have to go back now, or Jacob will be too busy to handle everything."

I saw no people here so I nodded.

When Annie and I were about to leave, the door was opened. Jack came back from the outside with his bad leg.

And was surprised to see me.

Annie said to Jack, "I met Jasmine on the way. She said she didn't come here, so she wanted to have a look with me."

"Brother Jack."

Jack was not happy. "What's so good about a shabby house?"

Jack stepped to the stove and put down an iron rice basin.

I saw the rest porridge and some eggplant in the bowl. It seemed that someone had just eaten.

I'm confused. Where did he just eating with a bowl? I didn't see anyone in the yard when I came in just now.

"I've put the ointment on the east room's bed for you."

Jack rolled his eyes at me. "Fine. Go if you have nothing else to do."

When Annie and I got out of the house, I ran my eyes over the yard and saw a room at the end of the yard. It was locked, and I was wondering if there was someone.
