Chapter 45 Sneak Photos
Jonny laughed so hard that his stomach hurt, "Cherry, are you naive or brainwashed? Men in the world are the same, aren't they? No matter how otherworldly he is, he has to take a nap and sleep with a woman, right? Unless he is impotent... A pillow was thrown over and covered his mouth.
Cherry glared at him.
He raised his hand in surrender, "Well, I can see that you are really in love. Congratulations."
He walked to the small table, looked at the few dishes, and sighed again. "It's not easy for me to come here, but you don't even want to cook a few dishes. You just asked the waiter deal with it to perfunctory me. Don't you feel sorry to me?" With an expressionless face, Cherry replied, "I'm really sorry. It's a rule that I only cook one dish a day." She bit her lower lip and said, "I only cook a whole table of dishes for one person. As for others, don't even think about it." Jonny cried out loudly.
"You are a person who has love but no friendship. Alas, today, I am a local youth who has lost both friendship and love!"
Cherry looked back at him sensitively and asked, "What's wrong with you and Sarah?"
"What do you think?" Although he ordered some food, he didn't eat. He just kept drinking with a smile. "Another two bottles of wine. How can this be enough?"
Cherry frowned and asked, "You haven't got her yet?"
Jonny's face darkened.
After drinking a few glasses of wine, the scars that he had tried to hide seemed to be turned out again, which made his heart ache.
He curled his lips, but his smile was cold.
Staring at the untouched dishes on the table, he squinted slightly and said, "Yes. She said she wouldn't like me. She has someone she likes."
He gulped down the wine in his glass.
Cherry looked at him with a frown. After a while, she said, "Take it easy. Jonny, since she doesn't like you, leave her alone."
However, Jonny was not reconciled, "She refused me so ruthlessly as if I were a dog, you didn't know that..." He took a deep breath and said, "It's so humiliating. What's worse, she told me that she liked my brother."
He raised his head and laughed, "Stop dreaming. My brother knows I like her and I'm pursuing her. How can he be nice to her? She wants my brother to be a family doctor for her. Does she want a waterfront pavilion to get the moonlight first? I've never seen such an innocent girl! "
He didn't realize that the woman in front of him had changed her face.
"What?" She whispered, "Sarah likes Jacob?"
Hearing that, Jonny frowned. He turned to look at Cherry and asked, "Jacob?" He pursed his lips and said, "When did you become so close to my brother? But he definitely didn't tell you that she had chased him to the hospital and kept sending private photos!"
He gritted his teeth and said, "But I can't stand being fooled like a monkey!"
Cherry's face changed dramatically.
'Jacob and Sarah?'
These two people who couldn't get together...
She couldn't help but think of Sarah's face.
She was exceedingly fascinating, just like a princess from the heaven...
A spoiled girl from a rich family should be loved by thousands of people innately!
She couldn't help asking a stupid question, "Des Jacob like her?"
Jonny stared at her awkwardly, "Do you think my brother will tell me?"
She sat down absentmindedly, holding the glass of wine, and her throat was bitter.
Jacob had been keeping a lukewarm relationship with her for a long time. She couldn't figure out what he was thinking about. Now, she felt that it was a mystery in front of her.
Who would he choose between her and Sarah?
Who else was also coveting him?
Did she have to catch up with him to the hospital and be with him like Sarah?
She thought about it again and again, but she didn't notice that Jonny was staring at her face.
"You..." Jonny frowned and asked, "Do you also like my poker faced brother?"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Cherry came back to her senses and stared at him. "You'd better think about how to be more courteous to Sarah so that she will like you!" Jonny snorted.
He drank up the bottle of wine, and his eyes were red. "Don't mention it. If you take me as your friend, then drink with me today!"
Cherry also raised her glass.
She was absent-minded the whole morning.
She went to the kitchen and made a steamed fish. Then she went back to her office and drank with Jonny.
The waiter brought another box of red wine to her. When she went to make a dish, three empty red wine bottles were already in front of him.
The dishes on the table remained untouched, but the cup in front of Jonny had been empty.
Seeing her come back, he filled her glass again and said, "Drink it with me."
She was so preoccupied that she drank up the wine with him.
She had never been so unsure before. Her heart was in a mess.
She didn't know what to do at all.
She called him outside and asked if he was free tomorrow.
"Is it about the gastroscopy? There's a tough patient recently. I have to stay here for 24 hours. I'll contact you when I'm free, okay?" There was no difference in Jacob's tone. She couldn't help asking, "Do you know Sarah?"
He didn't answer directly, but asked, "What's wrong with her again?"
Again...
Cherry's heart sank to the bottom.
"Nothing." She forced a smile and said, "I heard her mention you."
"What did she say?" He asked curiously.
Did he care? Did he care about her or Sarah?
She couldn't figure it out.
"Nothing. I have a guest here. I'll call you another day."
She quickly ended the call with a heavy heart.
She was not 7 years old, let alone 17 years old. She was already 27 years old.
If she couldn't wait for the right person, maybe that would be the case for the rest of her life.
Jonny was bending over the table.
He closed his eyes and pursed his lips, looking a little fierce.
He drank so much for a woman. Maybe he had more feelings for Sarah than he and she had imagined.
However, such a silent Jonny, such a tightly pursed lips, and his side face was so similar to that person. Her eyes turned red.
No one would think about that she also needed to be taken care of.
Except for Jacob.
Only he could make her feel that no matter how strong a woman was, she still needed a warm harbor.
However, he was so close to her and so far away from her...
She couldn't see through him.
He cared about her, but he didn't approach her.
Should she be more active?
She bit her lower lip and clenched the glass in her hand.
She managed to move Jonny to her cot.
He didn't wake up. He just mumbled and buried his face in her little pillow.
She leaned against the corner of the bed and drank the rest of the red wine.
Jonny knew that she wouldn't make fun of his gaffe.
In fact, she was not much better than him.
She had been eagerly waiting for that person to come, but she had been waiting for him in vain again and again...
She buried her head between her knees and began to cry in a low voice.
Now there was no one else, only the drunken Jonny, so no one would be surprised at her tears at the moment.
She didn't need anyone to know her fragility.
Vaguely, she didn't know how much she had drunk.
Her empty stomach protested.
She drank more wine as if she was abusing herself.
Even her nerves seemed to have been anesthetized.
She leaned against the corner of the bed and closed her eyes completely.
The office was divided into two small cubicles. Outside was the sofa and desk, and inside was a table and a simple small bed.
The door of the cubicle was ajar. The clerk came in, but he didn't see anyone. He went out again honestly. "I'm sorry, sir. Our boss is not here now. How about letting her father deal with the matter?"
The two men stood in front of the
office and refused to get out of it. "No, no, no! They shouted, "We had found hair in the food. If your boss doesn't show up, we won't let it go! To tell you the truth, I know someone in the newspaper office. If I send a photo to him, your
ven
restaurant will be closed. How can
there be any customer coming?!"
The clerk, who was honest, was frightened and his face turned blue. "It's impossible. Our boss even gave us chef hats. How could there be hair in the food... " Cherry kept a close eye on the sanitation.
"Did we wrong you?" The two men, wearing casual jacket, looked aggressive.
The waiter trembled with fear, "But Miss. Cherry is really not here..." The phone was on the table. God knew where the boss had gone? The boss was the mainstay. The whole restaurant was in a mess when she was absent.
"Let's wait inside. Go and find your boss. "A man snorted, pushed the door open and swaggered in. "Hurry up. I'll send the photos if she comes back late!"
The waiter had no choice but to trot to the manager for help.
The two men rushed into Cherry's office.
The two of them lowered their voices, "Are you sure that Jonny Nelson is here?"
Inet
"Yes." Another man said in a low voice, "He has never gone out since he entered this restaurant. I've searched everywhere here, but didn't find him except the ladies' room. He must be here. Besides, Cherry must be here too."
The two turned their eyes to the half open room at the same time.
The two of them approached the door, but there was no sound inside.
They held their breath and quietly pushed the door open a crack...
Cherry sat at the corner of the bed, with her hair hanging over the edge. ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
