No One But You

My negotiation with Fairy Dixon was simple and clear, and I agreed with her price, so our negotiation was over in 20 minutes.

At the door she promised me, "If you leave Calvin, the money will be transferred to your accout immediately."

"I don't do anything until I get paid. That's always been my rule."

Fairy Dixon looked at me with her gentle eyes. She smiled and nodded, "Ok, I will ask someone to do later."

It was a pleasure to trade with a cheery person.

So I walked away from her singing.

Then I hummed my way into Calvin's house.

Calvin was not at home, so now it was the best time for me to slip away.

I was now a multimillionaire. Did I still have to pull with him?

At the end of the day, I should know what happened to me.

I lost my suitcase in the original villa, so I didn't even have the suit I brought with me here, so I didn't know why I came back here, because there was nothing to pack.

I left a note for Calvinin his room. I wrote several times and made a mess of what I meant.

After throwing away several little balls of paper, I finally wrote him only one sentence.

"I'm happy with my new offer, so we're done."

Look, the identity of a journalist brought convenience to my life. A short sentence described incisively and vividly the image I loved money.

As I walked out of Calvin's house, a text message came from my cell phone saying my bank account had reached twenty million yuan. Lucy and Sally didn't know where I went and why I was going to go out now. They asked me if they should prepared dinner for me.

I laughed and said no.

Then I strode out of the neighborhood.

My first stop was to the bank. Of course, I did not want to check whether the twenty million really arrived, but reported loss in the counter. I could not get the money even with my own ID card. I did this because I told myself that even if I had not a cent left, I would not use the dime Fairy Dixon gave me.

But I had to take what she gave me.

How else can I perpetuate the image of me as a gold-digger?

Of course, I won't turn down the offer from Fairy Dixon.

Twenty million was a lot less to her.

It was great to see the way she looked at me when I said yes.

Coming out of the bank, I looked at the sky, it was almost evening, Calvin should had come back.

He would have to look for me, because I could see that he had a crush on me recently. If I suddenly disappeared while I was still fresh to him, he would dig me out even if I was in the ground. I thought for a moment and got in the car to Daniel's house.

When I knocked on the door of Daniel's house, both Daniel and his mother came to open the door and looked at me with their rice bowl in their hands and their mouths open.

I squeezed through the gap between them and told him without looking back, "I'm back to live."

Daniel followed me with a bowl in his hand. He had a strange look on his face. It was unable to say whether he was pleased or not. "What did you say, Josephine, you were coming back to live?" "Didn't you say that even if I gave birth to someone else's child, you'd still live out your life with me?" I asked.

He was stunned for a moment and nodded, "Sure, my oath will never change."

"Bring me a bowl." I said.

"Ok, ok." He put down his bowl and bounced off to the kitchen.

He was so attentive to me because he thought my coming back was a great hope for him to get his position back.

He thought too much.

Daniel's mother walked up to me, with uncertain expression on her face.

Daniel and I were not divorced, even I hated them, I should not be less polite.

I called to her, "Mom."

She nodded her head. I called her at home before, she regarded me as air if Daniel was not there. She hated me, but I was not sad, for another woman was Daniel's wife, she would hate her too.

She felt that we women had stolen her son and shared her son's love for her.

In some ways, there were things women didn't want to share with others.

But I was different. If I was to have a son, and he would have his life when he came of age, I would never have had a hand in it.

Daniel brought me a bowl and added some rice.

Recently, I ate a lot of seafood, plus Lucy craft was of master skill. Daniel's mother was not match to her.

And their taste was so strong that I can't take it.

I put down my chopsticks.

Daniel's mother looked at me with a smile on her face, "It seems that Josephine has had much good food outside. You can't swallow our humble meal, can we?"

Daniel smiled as he tucked a piece of chicken into my bowl. "My mother's chicken is the best in the world."

If he did not say it was chicken, I really did not see it, since it was dark. I thought she would like pour into a whole bottle of soy sauce.

In Daniel's eyes, everything his mother made was a flower.

It was a traditional virtue to show filial piety to the elderly, but blind flattery meant foolish filial piety.

As for everything my mom and dad did, I should criticize when I feel wrong.

In front of the parents, three values were to be correct.

They were not like us.

We were all young people. We were exposed to new things and knew how to keep pace with the times.

The circle of friends of the elderly was already narrower than ours. With the rapid development of the society, their acceptance ability was gradually weakened. If we just blindly pursue in front of our parents, it seemed to me that we were just perfunctory.

The elderly and children alike, correct world outlook and values should be established.

I didn't think much of Daniel. I had told him this before, but he always said that his mother was too old to live like a benchmark.

I didn't think he was in love with his mother, he's just muddling along.

I was not very hungry. I had a strong action. After meeting Fairy Dixon in the afternoon, I had left Calvin now.

I had an appointment with him to have hot pot tonight.

A series of events filled my stomach and heart. I was so heartless, though no one could tell it from my appearance.

I was sad, I really was.

My cell phone was off. Calvin can't find me.

I didn't touch the food in the bowl. I pushed the bowl away and went back to the room.

Although it was a small building with second floors, it only had three rooms, a master bedroom, a side bedroom, and a guest room.

Daniel's mother slept in the master bedroom, while I slept in side bedroom and Daniel always slept in the guest room.

As Soon as I entered the room, I locked the door behind me. It suddenly occurred to me that during the days when I lived in Calvin's house. No matter how I locked it, he could come in.

I went into the room to take a bath, and found there were my old clothes in the room.

As just finished taking a bath and came out from the bathroom, I heard Daniel patting my door, "Josephine, Mr. Knight is downstairs!"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
