The Love Book

chapter 80: Why did he suddenly come here?



The manager is again a compensation smile, “Yes, yes, we will definitely look at the monitoring, and, our compensation does not need to be responsible for the lady, after all, also let you and your friends are frightened, as for the argument between this gentleman and you, may have to wait for him to wake up and you deal with it. But if you choose to call the police, we will definitely testify to you.”

Phoebe Barnes said indifferently: “No need to call the police, I’ll bother you to send the person to the hospital, and this matter is over.”

After receiving two bottles, she will probably grow a bit of memory, and she doesn’t want to make a big deal out of it.

“It’s over?” The manager asked uncertainly.

“Hmm.”

The manager nodded and turned to Kemp Ross with a smile on his face, “Ross, what do you think?”

The parties involved are not pursued, he should not have to pursue it, right?© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Just then, a person suddenly came in the door.

Phoebe Barnes was surprised for a moment to see Campbell Butler, why did he suddenly come here?

She came here before talking to Kemp Ross and he told her to call Campbell Butler if she needed anything, so Campbell Butler should not have been called by him at that time, so when did he call him here?

She repeatedly thought about it, from just now to now he did not call at all, unless … he found her at the bar very early, but was late in showing up.

Is it possible that he would not have intended to show up if the accosting man had not hit her on the spot?

Thinking about it, Phoebe Barnes heart faint bitterness run through her body.

“Ross Chief!” Campbell Butler walked up to Kemp Ross.

Kemp Ross didn’t say anything, turned his eyes to the woman behind him who had been silent, and said warmly, “I’ll have Campbell Butler send you back first.”

Miley Gu is very sensible, no matter what is in his heart, but the surface has never shown the slightest, gentle and elegant smile, nodding, “Good, I’ll call you when I arrive.”

As she turned sideways, she also nodded to Phoebe Barnes with a light smile, and then took the lead.

Phoebe Barnes looked at her in a trance for a moment, although she did not feel any malice from the other side, but there was still some discomfort in her heart.

Some people are born with a high class face, and even with the temperament are different from the general public, a smile and a knit are through the noble, and she belongs to that kind, only a glance Phoebe Barnes will be able to feel that kind of difference.

“Ross Chief, the jacket you asked for!” Campbell Butler handed him the blazer in his hand, nodded to Phoebe Barnes as well, and turned to walk out.

The manager stood on the side of the atmosphere dare not come out a moment, more dare not have a probing expression, hanging his head and pretend not to see.

Phoebe Barnes’ eyes were still following Campbell Butler as she went out, and it was obvious that she was probing Miley Gu.

As if he didn’t notice, Kemp Ross casually tossed his jacket onto her and said blandly, “Put it on.”

With a black eye, Phoebe Barnes took the shirt off her head and looked at him with some bewilderment.

And he had Campbell Butler bring the jacket over specifically?

From the feel of the hand alone, you can be sure that it is his clothes.

Kemp Ross turned around and took a step, seeing her still frozen, his eyes narrowed and he said coldly, “Don’t you want to go back?”

“… Hmm? I see.”

Phoebe Barnes, holding Nancy MO with one hand, draped her jacket over her body somewhat awkwardly and followed him out at a brisk pace.

Nancy MO although not fat, but for Phoebe Barnes such a thin person, holding to walk out are some effort, not to mention her feet are also wearing such high shoes, but the man is not slow to walk in front, no intention to give a hand, she can only move in the back with difficulty to keep up with small steps.

It was hard to move to the side of the road when the man suddenly turned to look at her, “Where’s the car?”

“Huh?” Phoebe Barnes froze, then tugged her lips in embarrassment, “I wasn’t driving.”

She was running from the party, where there was a car, and just told the man that it was also to fool him.

She raised her eyes, saw a black Bentley parked on the side of the road, and whispered, “Didn’t you drive here?”

The man didn’t even seem to bother arguing with her anymore, not even looking at her, dropping the line, “You better pray she doesn’t throw up halfway down the road, or I’ll throw you both off.”

“…”

Phoebe Barnes looked down at the unconscious Nancy MO and was a little worried. With so much to drink, she wasn’t sure if she would suddenly throw up halfway through the day.

She looked at the man with open dark eyes, her soft voice tinged with a hint of pity, “I won’t dirty your car, she’ll throw up on me first.”

It’s better not to anger him at this time, she doesn’t want to be left on the side of the road in the middle of the night.

The man did not speak again, opened the car door and sat in the driver’s seat.

Phoebe Barnes opened the rear door, first Nancy MO stuffed into it, may be too hard in the hands, the body did not stand for a moment, the heel of the shoe is crooked, only to hear a clear sound of bone dislocation, so that she sucked a cold breath of pain, but also did not dare to make a sound.

The man sitting in front seems to be unaware of anything, and nothing moves as he waits to start the car.

Gritting her teeth and holding the car door, Phoebe Barnes sat in, tears of pain coming out of her eyes, slammed the car door shut and said softly in a hidden voice, “Just drive.”

“Address.”

Phoebe Barnes rested Nancy MO’s head on her lap and gave an address.

The man looked ahead without squinting, looked faint, and soon started the car to leave.

Halfway through, Phoebe Barnes fought back a vague pain in her ankle, gazed at the back of the man’s head and whispered, “Thank you for tonight.”

She thought he would let Campbell Butler drop them off and go see the woman off himself, but she didn’t expect it to turn out this way.

The heart is somewhat flattered, but that doesn’t mean she will ignore the woman’s presence.

The man’s large palm on the steering wheel, skilled and casual movement, carelessly open, “Knowing that I did not mean to save you, but also specially thank me, when can you change your hypocritical nature?”

“…”

Phoebe Barnes can only see the side lines of the man’s face from the rearview mirror, handsome and bland, calm when people have the illusion of tenderness, but the words spoken are as mean as ever.

She couldn’t help but smile softly, “Do I just ask who the woman you were with tonight was so you don’t think I’m being hypocritical?”

The man’s quiet eyes flickered gently, his profound features had little expression, his tone detached and indifferent, “You don’t need to know her. You understand, whoever she is, it doesn’t mean anything to you.”

A coldness in the heart.

Phoebe Barnes felt the pain in her ankle lighten for a moment, and looked up at the back of his head with trepidation, the hurt in her eyes almost spilling out.

The thin sweat that soaked out of her forehead because of the pain was cold, and she lowered her eyebrows and forced out a very soft voice, “I understand.”

The light from the corner of the man’s eye swept a glance at the woman behind him through the rearview mirror, his eyes hidden and unknown, so that people can not see any emotion at all.
