Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 624
The heat of his sturdy and powerful arm was printed on her skin directly through the thin dress.
Emily swallowed a mouthful of saliva quietly. She felt as if her skin was scalded with tiny lumps. What was strange was that after he wrapped his arms around her waist, with the help of his strength, she actually began to walk steadily.
The banquet hall was at the left end of the first floor. The banquet hall was resplendent and magnificent, and the beauties were walking up and down in their splendid dresses.
It was like a scene that would only appear in movies. It was the first time that Emily had ever in such place. Even during the annual dinner celebrations that she had interviewed before, she had never come to such an occasion.
As soon as they entered the banquet hall, a girl wearing a white dress came running towards them.
"Simon!"
The girl shouted sweetly when she came up and shyly waved the hem of her dress inlaid with flowers. "As soon as I heard that you would attend this banquet for Wilson tonight, I asked my dad to bring me here! I've been here for a long time. Simon, can I be your companion?"
The smile on Simon's thin lips remained unchanged. He pulled Emily, who wanted to withdraw, forward and said, "Sorry, I already have a companion!"
When the girl heard this, she immediately ran away and angrily turned back to glare at her.
Emily blinked her eyes. That's not what she meant!
She was the one who took the blame for him!
The banquet was very lively. The purpose of Emily's visit was acting as a mascot. She just need to smile at anyone who came to say hi. Fortunately, Simon did not seem to be keen on this kind of occasion. In addition to greeting the host of the banquet, he did not chat with too many people. In the middle, he went to the bathroom. Emily ran to the long table to eat.
Anyway, it wouldn't cost her any money, so she didn't hesitate to fill her stomach.
When she filled the white porcelain plate with food again and was about to pick up a piece of egg-yolk puff and put it in her mouth, a slender figure appeared in front of her to block the light from the top of her head. "You look so beautiful in this dress!"
Emily looked up and saw a young boy standing in front of her.
He looked like a young college student, so the mature suit didn't match his obviously. He should be a child from a rich family who came with his parents.
When Emilye didn't graduate, as the vice president of the student union, she always helped entertain new students, so there were often boys coming to chat her up. Emily suddenly felt a little nostalgic for the scene. She couldn't help but tease him, "Am I good looking, or is my dress?"
"You! Of course you!" The boy smiled shyly and scratched his head. "Miss, can you give me your phone numbers?"
Seeing that there was no trace of blasphemousness in his eyes, Emily smiled and nodded. "Sure!"
After exchanging contact details, the boy's parents seemed to call him, so he left shyly.
Emily shrugged her shoulders, turned around, and got a fright.
It was unknown when Simon came back from the bathroom. He stood there quietly with his hands in his pockets. Her amorous eyes narrowed slightly at this time. He said to Emily, "There is a vegetable leaf on your teeth."
Hearing this, Emily immediately took out her phone to cheek her teeth in a hurry.
Just now she was laughing at the young boy. If her teeth were stained with the leaves of the vegetables, it would be too shameful!
She looked at herslf for a long time, and there was nothing on her white teeth. When she saw the teasing smile in Simon's eyes, Emily knew that she had been fooled again. The banquet was western-style, and there were all delicate cakes. Where did the vegetable leaves come from!
D*mn it!
The banquet lasted for two hours and finally ended.
Because Simon had met an acquaintance of an elder, who was the father of that girl they had met before. In order to avoid being poked into a beehive by that girl's eyes, Emily lifted the hem of her dress and went to the Cayenne alone to wait.
When Simon opened the car door and came in, she could not wait to reach out her hand. "Have I finished your task? I hope you can keep your promise, too. Where's my necklace?"
"Mm." Simon frowned.
"What's wrong?" Emily asked nervously.
There was a hint of hesitation in Simon's expression. He looked at Emily and said slowly, "I didn't find it just now. I suspect that I may left it in the stomach of the patient last night during the operation." "What!" Emily's eyes were wide open.
When she was about to swear, she saw Simon reaching into his pocket and taking out something and throwning it to her. Emily subconsciously caught it and felt the outline of the fish. She fixed her eyes on it and found that it was the necklace that she had taken along for many years.
This fellow was always playing tricks on her!
This little fish pendant was made by her father when she was five years old. Her mother also took her to buy the necklace. Later, after they passed away in a car accident it was the only relic left to her by her parents. It was almost the most important thing to her.
The joy of regaining suddenly filled her chest, and she clenched it tightly as if it was a treasure.
Seeing her expression as if she was holding treasure, Simon glanced over with his amorous eyes. "A gift from your ex?"
Emily didn't hear what he said. She was just focusing on putting the necklace on her neck.
Seeing her stroking the silver little fish back and forth with joy, Simon took it as a tacit admission. He snorted, stepped on the gas pedal, and drove away the Cayenne from the entrance of the hotel. There were not too many cars in the evening, and the hotel was not far away from where she lived, so the Cayenne stopped in front of a residential building about twenty minutes later. Looking at the building, Simon asked in surprise, "You live here?"
"Yes!" Emily nodded.
The house was lent to her by Mr. Hogg, so the rent was almost half the price. She didn't explain it to him. She looked up and couldn't help frowning. When she unbuckled her seat belt, she took out her phone and dialed the number. "Hello? Tina, are you asleep?"
During the day, her colleague Tina said that her relative couldn't stay at home tonight, so she had to come to her house for a night. However, Emily didn't know when she will get her necklace, so she gave the key to Tina. But just now, she saw that there was no light at home. She shouldn't sleep at this time!
"Emily, I was just about to call you!" Tina said apologetically on the phone. "I met an classmate on the subway, and we had a meal just now. Now that I've just finished eating, I'm going back. Just wait for me for a while. It's estimated that it'll take only half an hour at most!"
"Okay, got it!"
Emily hung up the phone, feeling a little worried.
Since she was living in someone else's house, she had only one key. She couldn't possibly ask her friend to ask Mr. Hogg for the keys in the middle of the night!
At the moment, she was afraid that she could only wait for Tina to come back. Otherwise, even if she went to Tina, it would be a waste of time. Moreover, her current outfit was really not suitable for her to hang around.
After glancing at the building gate that was tightly shut outside, Emily thought that she would wait in front of the building for a while and maybe there will come a neighbor to help her open the door, and then she could wait inside the corridor.
Just as her hand touched the car door and was about to push the door open, the car closed with a sudden click.
