“There was nothing to talk about between us. Please come back.” Hugo frowned his eyebrows slightly.
His raised eyebrows showed that he was unhappy, more like to hide his inner panic.
“I come to learn skills from you!” Sofia raised the corner of her mouth and chest. She walked to Hugo’s desk step by step elegantly.
Hugo sat in his chair, looked up at Sofia and frowned thoughtfully.
A pleasant ringtone rang...
This ringtone was not hers. Elizabeth looked for it along the sound and found the phone under the pillow of Hugo’s bed.
The caller was “Brother.”
Elizabeth did not answer the phone concerning that Hugo had not formally introduced her to his family.
Hugo left his phone here. Would he miss the important calls?
Immediately Elizabeth put the phone away, picked up the keys and went out with the phone.
The distance from Deli Apartment to DL Estate Building was not far, and it took about 20 minutes to walk there.
When Elizabeth arrived at the ground floor of the building, it was very lively at the door. More than a dozen men and women surrounded someone. They were in uniform bowing, which looked very formal.
As the group dispersed, a man in the center, tall and straight, was in a fine silver-gray well cut suit, which made his legs look long.
Elizabeth felt this man's back familiar, but she was now in a hurry, so she had no time to take into account these things. She followed this group of men and women to walk into the door together with that man.
There were respectful greetings “Hello, Mr. Jasper” all over.
Elizabeth had entered the building and was to leave this group, but inadvertently she saw the man’s side face.
It was him!
Every time she met this man who she had saved that night, he would do heart-throbbing intimacy to her. She instinctively turned her back on the man, trying to avoid meeting him.
As Jasper walked, Snow’s figure flashed in his mind and then he suddenly stopped his pace.
When he stopped, all the people present stopped after him.
When he turned around, all the people were still, only that familiar figure gradually walked away from him.
Jasper was stunned and even his heartbeat seemed to be slow half beat.
As if he would lose her forever...
“Stop!”
A magnetic command rang through the hall.
Obviously he was nervous that the woman would escape under his eyes, but his handsome face was in placidity, no one could see slightest fluctuation in his heart.
When Elizabeth heard this strong command she stopped her footsteps.
Did the man recognize her?
Just in time, the elevator rang with the sound of floor arrival.
As soon as the elevator door opened, a few people walked out of the elevator and attracted everyone's eyes.
