The bus soon arrived downtown, and it was already crowded with people.
Victor let go of his hand and turned off the music inside his phone.
With three stops to go, Victor raised his hand and touched Izabella on the side: "Izabella?"
Izabella is a little seasick, sleeping drowsily, suddenly heard Victor call himself, frowning, but some wake up.
Instead of opening her eyes, she changed her position, hummed, and fell back to sleep.
Victor watched, his peachy eyes twitched, and he didn't call out to him again.
Noisy people inside the carriage, someone is answering the phone, the voice is yelling very loud.
Izabella was half asleep when she heard Victor call her name again, this time she didn't fall asleep again and looked up at Victor beside her blankly: "Are we there yet, Victor?"
She just woke up, there is still sleep inside her eyes, so when she tilted her head to look at people, like a kitten that just woke up from a nap.
At that moment, the bus stopped just in time and Victor took her hand: "Get off."
He said, picking up the two men's backpacks with his other hand and pulling Izabella out of the car.
Izabella rubbed her eyes and stood by the bus stop for a while before gradually coming back to her senses.
She glanced at Victor with some embarrassment, "Victor, I fell asleep just now."
Victor took out his phone and looked at her, looking down at her, with a rare smile inside his eyes: "Still sleepy?"
Izabella was embarrassed and shook her head, "Not sleepy anymore."
Victor raised an eyebrow, the phone in his hand suddenly rang, he glanced at the caller ID, some disgust, but still pressed the answer.
The call was from Milo. It was Maximus' birthday today, and Milo was calling to remind Victor.
"Victor, it's Maximus' birthday, you didn't forget, did you?"
Victor glanced aside at Izabella: "Didn't forget."
"Hey, so what time are you coming? There are quite a lot of people coming tonight, do you want to bring Izabella with you?"
Milo said this with a thievish tone, Victor subconsciously glanced at Izabella, "You know her well?"
Milo wimped out as soon as he heard Victor's words, "Hey, not familiar, I'm not making a suggestion, making a suggestion."
Victor snorted coldly and hung up the phone straight away.
Izabella was lifting the stone at her feet when she saw Victor finish his call before she looked over at him, "Victor, do you have something to do?"
"No."
He said, raising his hand and stopping a taxi directly: "Go back first."
Izabella nodded and didn't ask any more questions and followed him to the car.
The two of them returned to the Lloyd family villa at 4:00 pm and almost 5:00 pm. Although Izabella had slept in the car, she was seasick and was still quite tired when she got home.
Victor didn't change his clothes last night, and the first thing he did when he got back was to take a new shower and change his set of clothes.
The aunt inside the house made afternoon tea, Victor came downstairs after showering, and Izabella was already sitting at the dining table drinking sugar water.
"Victor, Auntie made bean curd, it's delicious."
Izabella also took a shower and changed her clothes. She also washed her hair, which was not completely dry, the ends were damp and draped behind her, some of the tips were still dripping with water.
Izabella's face was flushed with light red after her shower, and as she approached, Victor could smell the same body wash scent on her as on himself.
When the aunt saw that both of them were there, she came out and asked them what they wanted to eat in the evening.
Victor took the bean flower: "I have a friend's birthday dinner tonight."
The implication is that he won't be eating over here tonight.
Said Victor, looking to Izabella: "Maximus' birthday, are you going?"
In fact, just now at the bus stop, Izabella heard Milo say this thing.
She didn't expect Victor to actually ask her, and she was a little embarrassed: "I don't know them."
