Chapter 121: Exciting News
Robert’s eyes looked hard at her, a hint of nervousness evident in that gaze as well, and it seemed he had expected what Sherry had come for.
“Sherry, you’re a little too arrogant to come here in the middle of the night to pick up something, you’re provoking our patience aren’t you?” Robert said evasively, “You hand over the keys to this place.”
Then he looked to Edith, “Edith, check it out!”C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
Edith nods and snatches her bag, puts it on the floor and picks at it a few times, then gets up and says to us, “Sir, ma’am! It is indeed underwear and makeup!”
Robert listens to Edith and leans over and whispers, “Since it’s one of those things, take the key and let her roll! She does have injuries on her, so don’t make a mess and turn it against us!”
I snorted and gave him a look full of disdain.
In fact, of course, I didn’t want to really call the police, after all, I still have a great use for keeping her, Sherry is a good gun in my hand, naturally I won’t easily let her fold, that would be too cheap. The game has just begun, how can you not have tools?
Since she can be Robert’s tool to supervise me, naturally she can be used by me.
“Then you deal with it!”
I got up coldly, not even wanting to look at Robert again, and with lazy steps, as if nothing had happened, I turned and headed upstairs.
As I walked away, my heart was bellyaching, you’d better hold on tight and cherish the few days you have left!
Robert, confused for a moment by my actions, yelled at my back, “Honey, you …”
I went up my stairs as if I hadn’t heard.
The next second, I heard Robert’s impatient snarl, “Put the keys down and get out!”
Sure enough, just as I expected, Robert didn’t take a shot at her.
I raised my eyebrows and smiled darkly, then I will make you, Robert, pay an irrevocable price for your decision tonight.
The next day.
I informed Alice and threw out all their stuff and changed all the locks in the house with new ones, Robert didn’t dare to ask when he saw me tossing it around.
I started a cold war mode with him.
People are cheap. The less you treat them, the more they turn in front of you.
At lunch, Robert, who never comes back for lunch, rushed back for lunch, where he said to himself that it was Edith’s cooking that was really tasty.
He also brought me back crayfish that I used to love all the time, but I didn’t give him any face and didn’t touch any of them.
Let’s not talk about the fact that I’m currently not physically capable of eating spicy food, but mainly I have to be cautious about unknown foods I get back from outside.
He looked at me with a bit of disappointment, but still didn’t hold back his fawning smile and asked me, “Honey, isn’t crawfish your favorite food? This is what hubby specially went to buy for you, look it’s still hot! You taste it.”
I gave him a nonchalant look, “Don’t you know that I can’t eat spicy food in my current condition?”
He was speechless, and moved away from the plate with a grimace.
Before I finished eating, my parents’ video call came in, and I was in a state of bliss, hurriedly putting down my chopsticks and picking it up, and Robert also pretended to show his face in the camera as if nothing had happened, smiling with an elegant and warm smile.
The old couple was so joyful and glowing, after a few words, my mom disliked my dad, “Hurry up and tell your daughter, so she can be happy too!”
I purposely asked, “What’s good, come on Dad!”
“Uh-huh! Haha! Our old family home is being planned as a key project in Southend.” My dad was grinning from ear to ear and my mom was ecstatic.
“Really?” I smiled with excitement and hurriedly said, “The last time Scarlette went back she only heard that the Planning Department had plans, is it confirmed this time?”
“Well, it’s confirmed! However, because this is our Lu family’s private residence, and because our family is the focus of the overall planning as it relates to the development of the entire ancient town, our negotiations have only just begun, and the letter of intent has already been reported to the province by the city’s planning bureau.”
“Really, that’s a lot of old street, is it all zoned in?” I pursued with some exuberance, “Dad, you’re saying our house is a master planning priority? How much can that pay?”
Robert behind me moved forward as well.
