Chapter 23 - 23: Bobby’s Dad?!
The elevator doors were about to close.
Suddenly, a hand reached in and a handsome man’s face appeared in front of
Enna.
Enna was startled!
Baron Lawrence?
How did he follow her? Wasn’t he flirting with Amelia Young?
For some reason, Enna recalled the way he approached her earlier and retreated a little defensively.
However, the cold man entered the elevator as if he did not hear her, not even glancing at her throughout the process.
‘Ding-‘ The elevator doors closed.
Only the two of them were left in the small space, and Enna couldn’t help but feel tense.
However, the situation she feared never happened. From beginning to end, Baron Lawrence never looked back at her. Even when the elevator stopped at the underground parking garage she wanted to go to, and she hurried out; he made no move.
Not until Enna disappeared around the corner of the garage and the elevator doors closed again did the previously cold-faced man angrily punched the elevator buttons!
With a loud bang, several elevator buttons were smashed, making crackling electric sounds.
His left hand, which had just scabbed over, began to bleed profusely again.
Enna found her car, opened the door, and just sat down when Olivia Lewis’s text message came.
Enna needed to ask her something, so she called her back right away.
After just two rings, Olivia answered. “Hey, Enna, did you see the text I sent you?”
“I saw it.”
“The thing you asked me to help you with, my uncle has taken care of it. Enna, you’re a married woman now. Shouldn’t you treat us to a meal?” Olivia joked.
Enna was not in the mood to joke with her. “Olivia, did you ask your uncle when the other party would be available? I want to talk to him as soon as possible about the household registration issue.”
“Well, I asked. My uncle said he’s abroad and that it would take a while for him to come back.”
It would be half a year before Bobby turns five and returns to the country; that man should be back by then.
Enna was relieved, “… alright.”
She thought of another thing that weighed on her heart. “Oh, Olivia, could you do me a favor?”
“Sure, what do you need?”
It was a little difficult for Enna to speak up. “I want to stay at your place for a week temporarily until I find a new house to move into.”
“You’re moving again?” Olivia was surprised. “Didn’t you just move there? Why are you moving again? That house is pretty good, two bedrooms and a living room, close to your filming location, and there’s an elementary school nearby. It’d be convenient once Bobby arrives and goes to school. Why do you suddenly want to move?”
“Because Bobby’s father bought that house.” Enna didn’t want to deceive her.
“Bobby’s dad?! He bought the house?!” There was an exclamation from Olivia on the other end of the phone. After she got over her surprise, she calmed down a bit and lowered her voice, “What’s going on between you two? Enna, don’t tell me you and him…don’t mess with me; you just got your marriage certificate.”
“Anyway, it’s not what you think, or else I wouldn’t want to move. Olivia, can you please let me stay with you for a week?”
Olivia was generous and loyal. “Of course.”
“I have to work late tonight filming, so I’ll come back late. You can go directly, and Alton Clifford will be at home.”
Alton Clifford was Olivia’s boyfriend of four years. They had been together since college and were now discussing marriage. Alton didn’t work in the entertainment industry, but he found a job at a foreign enterprise. Though his income couldn’t compare to that of Olivia, who had already reached the lowest tier level in the industry, it was already considered good among ordinary people.
“Thank you, Olivia.”
“What’s this thank you between us? Just go there later.”
Enna hung up the phone, gathered her messy emotions, and immersed herself in work wholeheartedly..
