It was draughty at night.
Evelyn walked out of the house and wrapped herself with her coat more tightly. Looking at the sky and taking a deep breath, she gritted her teeth and rushed into the darkness.
D*mn it! Walking out of the warm air-conditioned room required courage and perseverance in this kind of weather.
Running in the cold wind, Evelyn was crying secretly in her heart.
The necklace...
It was so f*cking beautiful and shinning that her eyes were dazzled!
She lived in the city all year round, but she hadn't been so close to such valuable jewelry before. She... didn't know how much the jewelry was worth.
However, how could Frederick's grandma give her something worthless?
Alas!
If she had nodded just now, the necklace should have belonged to her, right? Needless to say, it must be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars or even one million dollars at least.
If she took it, she would not wear it, but sell it... In that case, she would become a rich girl immediately.
When she thought of her savings, her face puckered, and she frowned.
But... she should have her own principles, and she couldn't accept anything that shouldn't belong to her!
Even though she thought so, her heart... ached so much!
It was so painful that she couldn't breathe! Woo-woo...
"Beep!"
The sound of horns tooting was heard. Evelyn looked over and saw Lawrence open the car door and get out of the car.
She stopped, stared at Lawrence for a few seconds, and then asked in confusion, "Hey, why are you here?"
Lawrence smiled, "I'm here to pick you up."
Evelyn pointed to herself in surprise and looked so puzzled.
Lawrence nodded, "That's right."
"How did you know I was here?"
As soon as Evelyn asked this, she felt that she had asked a stupid question. A few days ago, Lawrence almost came here every day. When she didn't see him that day, she let out a sigh of relief, thinking that he wouldn't come here again.
Even if he didn't come here, he would know that she was here by calling Frederick's grandma.
Moreover... when Frederick's grandma said that the driver was waiting for her outside, her smile was meaningful... It turned out that Lawrence had been waiting for her.
"I went to your company." Lawrence said directly, "Your colleague told me that you had got off work. Then I called here." Lawrence didn't hide anything from her and said honestly.
"Oh."
"Don't stand there. Get in the car first. It's cold outside." As Lawrence said this, he walked to the passenger seat and opened the car door, waiting for Evelyn to get in the car.
Evelyn smiled awkwardly, "Thank you."
After getting in the car, she said, "I'm really sorry. I didn't know it was you, and I thought it was the driver who was waiting for me. Have you... waited for me for a long time?"
"Not very long."
"Why didn't you come in?"
"It's good to wait for you here."
In fact, he wanted to give her a surprise.
He thought that when she came out of the house and saw that he was waiting for her, she would definitely be very touched. Once she was moved, he could win her heart sooner.
"Thank you. I didn't know you were waiting for me.
"It doesn't matter. I can even wait for you like this every day."
