Destiny and fate sometimes were really miraculous. Just like when Mary inadvertently looked up, she suddenly found two people staggering out of the bar opposite.
They were William and Lucas.
It seemed that William had made a phone call to someone, and soon a person came.
However, Mary was surprised. The man in a suit looked powerful. He should be a bodyguard. The man respectfully opened the door of a yellow car for them, helped them into the car, and then drove away.
After William got into the car, Mary was not surprised at all. But it turned out that there were bodyguards in the car. Then why did Lucas call her.
All of a sudden, Mary felt humble again, because her pride that she had just refused to pick up William was shattered into pieces.
"Hello, Miss? How much is it?"
"What? Okay..." Mary came to her senses and apologized to the customer in front of her, "I'm sorry. It's one hundred and ninety in total."
After taking the money, Mary looked up again, but she didn't see the two strange yellow cars.
Outside the window, the neon lights were flashing and the night was fascinating.
"Sir, where are you going?" A yellow Lamborghini was speeding on the road.
"Kylin International." Sitting in the back seat, William rubbed his temples.
"Aren't you afraid of being beaten and driven out?" Lucas teased.
"Didn't you teach me to never give up?"
Lucas curled his lips and closed his eyes to rest.
"Sir, here we are."
"Okay." William nodded and said to the bodyguard, "Send Mr. Lucas to the seaside villa. He has the key."
"Yes, sir."
Getting out of the car, William looked at the building which was located in the middle. The light was a little yellow, revealing the feeling of "home".
'What would Mary react when she saw me? She must be shocked again? Would she ignore me again? Should I apologize? What should I say first when I saw her?'
While walking upstairs, William thought silently.
"Swoosh..." Standing at the door, William took a few deep breaths and clenched the door handle with her slender fingers.
'Click! Click'
'It didn't open?'
William frowned and tried again. Sure enough, he couldn't open it. 'Was there no one? Mary is not at home?'
'Ding Dong!'
At this moment, the elevator opened at once. As a conditioned response, William turned around. It was the old couple living next door.
"Hello." Now that they had met each other, he should greet them.
"Hello, man." The woman said, "Young man, long time no see."
"Yes, long time no see." William nodded.
"Hasn't Mary come back yet?" The man said.
"Not yet." William was a little surprised. It seemed that when he was not here, the relationship between them and Mary was good!
"She doesn't have a part-time job tonight," the woman said. "You forgot it again, honey."
"Yes, you're right. Mary has a part-time job. Look, I forgot it again."
Part-time job? Hearing that, William frowned. Was Mary across the bar tonight? For a moment, William felt that he had been close to Mary but it seemed that they are actually very far from each other, and he could not help but shake his head secretly.
"Then we shall go inside first, young man." The couple turned around and left with a smile.
"Okay." William nodded and sighed. His questions just now was in vain. She was not at home at all.
So he reached out to take out his pocket. Something was wrong. He didn't even have the key?!
William was a little flustered. He fumbled around and checked his pockets. Sure enough, there was no key.
'What should I do? Call Mary?
No, No. she wouldn't come back even if I called him. Maybe she wishes I never come back again?'
After hesitating for a long time, William took off the tailored suit jacket from Paris angrily and threw it on the ground. Then he sat down on it.
Since there was no one at night, he didn't care about his image and just stayed here shamelessly.
William took out his phone and looked around, but there was no game at all. No wonder Mary said his life was too boring.
Thinking of Mary, William opened the album and clicked the only photo in it.
It was a photo of him and Mary.
In his car, Mary played selfie with an innocent look on her face. However, she was shocked by the face he got close to. It was funny but cute.
The photo recorded the two of them at that moment. The photo was enlarged and William touched the round face of Mary.
He smiled when he saw it.
He didn't know why he kept such a photo, but he just wanted to keep it. Maybe it was because the expression on Mary's face was too cute?
With the phone in his hand, William rolled his legs, leaned his hands against the ground and closed his eyes for a rest.
