On the second day, Jim went out early. After getting up, Eva found that it was still early, so she was going to visit Percy and Jonson first. When she arrived at the apartment, she saw that Percy and Jonson were having breakfast.
Seeing Eva come over, Percy asked if she had eaten. When she knew that she hadn't had breakfast yet, she immediately asked Eva to sit down.
At the dinner table, Jonson asked about the recent life of Eva. Eva talked about the shooting and the daily life with Jim. When she was about to get up and add some soup to Jonson, she suddenly felt a nausea in her stomach. She covered her mouth and ran to the bathroom.
Both Percy and Jonson noticed the abnormality of Eva.
Jonson and Percy asked about Jim and Eva's relationship and whether they had talked about when to prepare for the wedding. When Percy said they had not made a clear decision, Jonson immediately declared that he must have a talk with Jim's parents and implement this matter as soon as possible.
When Eva came out of the bathroom, Percy filled another bowl of hot porridge for her. After she sat down, Jonson frowned and said, "Eva, take care of yourself. As for the matter between you two, what's the attitude of Jim's parents? Have you settled down when you are going to hold the wedding?"
"His parents like me very much. Last time when Jim took me to their home, his mother kept talking to me. She said that there was finally someone in charge of Jim and she didn't need to worry about him anymore. When Jim told her that I am pregnant, his mother almost asked us to move to live with them."
"The wedding will be held three months later. Jim's parents want to arrange the venue and inform their relatives." After drinking a few mouthfuls of porridge, Eva continued.
"That's right. Jim is the only son of the Jing family. The wedding should be grand. It would need three months to prepare. Please make an appointment with Jim's parents. I want to talk to them about some details."
Eva agreed. Just now, she saw Essie walking towards them. When Essie went to the villa, she found that Eva was not there. She guessed that Eva must have come to visit Percy and Jonson, so she came to the apartment to look for her. As expected, she saw her.
After saying goodbye to Percy and Jonson, Eva and Essie drove to the nearby department store. When Eva parked the car and was about to get off, she suddenly saw a figure flash from the rearview mirror, but she immediately looked carefully to see if there was anyone. She thought she had a hallucination and didn't take it seriously.
The two of them went to the clothing store upstairs and tried on several dresses, but they didn't find any particularly favorite clothes.
When she went back to the first floor, she found that it was still early. It occurred to her that she could go to the supermarket to buy some vegetables and fruits for Percy and prepare some snacks and fruits for the evening. So she called Percy, and then went to the supermarket on the first floor with Essie, and found one shopping carts.
They quickly selected some fruits and vegetables, and Eva and Essie also selected some spareribs for Percy to make the soup at dinner.
They pushed the trolley to the snack area, and Eva threw a few bags of dessert into the trolley. When she was about to take a pack of walnuts from the shelf, she suddenly felt a gust of wind from behind.
One or two empty shopping carts were rushing over along the passageway between the shelves. There was no one in the passageway behind them, and Essie was still choosing on the other side.
The shopping carts moved so fast that the air was flowing and formed a stream of air. It was this wind aroused the vigilance of Eva. With the instinctive reaction formed by her years of learning the Judo. She pulled the cart beside her and pushed it out towards the cart.
With a loud crash, the two shopping carts collided and stopped. The loud crash woke up Essie who was choosing in front of the shelf. She came to check Eva in a hurry. Seeing Eva standing there, she rushed to her.
"Eva, are you okay?" asked Essie, who took Eva's hand and made a circle to see if there was any injury.
"It's okay. I'm fine." Eva pushed the two shopping carts against the shelves from the aisle, and then quickly walked to the end of the shelves with Essie.
On the other side of the goods shelf, there was a checkout counter next to it. Several nearby checkout counter were also empty, and there were only a few people paying and walking at the checkout counter in the distance.
Eva and Essie searched several shelves nearby, but they didn't see anyone suspicious.
Feeling that there was no further discovery, Eva and Essie decided to give up. They paid the bill at the cashier's desk and then moved the things into the car.
"Eva, you were scared just now. Let me drive." Worrying that Eva would be frightened, Essie offered to help her drive.
Essie started the car and slowly drove out of the parking lot. After a small turn, they began to enter the exit passageway of the garage. At this time, Eva, who was sitting in the driver's seat, saw a black car rushing out of the exit in the adjacent lane. She didn't take it to heart because it was a common case.
