Chapter 1046
By the time it was over, Elaine couldn't tell if the sheets were wet from the water brought out of the tub or something else ......
She was completely drained and dazed as Darnell carried her into the bathroom to take a shower.
Elaine closed her eyes, too tired to even lift her arms, and just leaned into his arms in a rare moment of enjoyment.
Darnell whispered, "Sleepy?"
Elaine "mmm" and rubbed against his chest: "A little."
"Go to sleep, I'll take you back later."
At that, Elaine's head tilted and her eyes opened slightly: "I didn't go home last night, my dad he ......"
Darnell said, "He's been in a meeting last night and it's not over yet, it's not too late to go back."
Elaine was instantly refreshed, meaning that her dad didn't even know she didn't come home last night.
She didn't know where the strength came from and grabbed the edge of the tub and tried to get up, "Then let's hurry up and try to ...... get back before he does."
Halfway to the stand, Elaine's legs went weak and she fell back to sit.
Darnell caught her, his eyebrows twitched unnoticed, his breathing stalled slightly, and he slowed down before speaking out: "No need to rush, he'll be at least noon."
Elaine's heart fell again, her nerves relaxed, and sleepiness struck again.
She yawned and leaned back into his arms.
It seems that as long as he is around, he can always arrange for her to handle everything, and she doesn't have to worry about anything.
Darnell wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her softly next to the ear.
......
Elaine had a solid sleep and by the time she woke up with a start, she was lying in her room.
She had just opened her eyes, and before her consciousness began to return, she felt the aches and pains all over her body.
It hurt more than the last time she played tennis, and her throat was dry.
Elaine struggled to lift the covers and crawled up, finding a glass of water next to the bedside table. She picked it up and drank it to the end in one gulp before she felt a little better.
After leaning on the bed for a while, Elaine suddenly remembered something and picked up the phone next to her glass of water to check the time, 3:00 pm.
She can really sleep.
Elaine looked at her phone and found that Natasha had sent her a message. After she replied, she put her phone down and slowly got out of bed and washed up, then changed and left the room.
When she reached the first floor, she asked the maid waiting on the sidelines, "Is my father back yet."
The maid said, "Mr. James went back to the study at noon to get something, and when he saw that Miss was still sleeping, he didn't call you and left again."
Elaine opened her mouth and was about to ask something, but felt a little uninvited.
Since she was sleeping in her room when her dad came back, there should be no problem.
If he knows that she was out of bed last night, the skull can be lifted for her.
Elaine nodded sleepily, "By the way, what's my dad up to, I heard from ...... that he's in a meeting, what's going on?"
The maid said, "I'm not sure of the exact reason, but I just saw a news report yesterday afternoon that seemed to say that the government side had received some kind of call, and Mr. James was probably busy all the time because of this."
Elaine froze, the phone?
She took out her phone and searched the Internet and found that nothing major had happened in Riverside City in the past two days.
It's not that her father has never returned home only once every two or three days when he was busy at work, but for some reason, Elaine always felt panicky this time. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Tomorrow is her father's birthday, it should ...... not be out of the question.
At that moment, Elaine's cell phone rang and it was the craft store informing her that she was ready to pick up her order.
Elaine said, "Yes, I'll be right over."
Hanging up the phone, Elaine messaged Natasha again, asking her to join her, and then quickly headed out the door.
After arriving at the entrance of the mall and meeting the two, they went straight to the craft store.
The moment she got the goods, Elaine's vaguely uneasy heart, was relieved, the two little people, really well done, is simply a shrunken version of her and her father, inside and out, all through the cute.
The staff of the craft store said, "Miss James, because we have more orders in the store, so the other set of handmade dolls you ordered will probably take a week."
Elaine nodded and put the one in her hand into a box and put it away, "Then I'll give you an address, you can send it directly there when you get there."
In a week's time, she's probably all in Switzerland.
"Okay."
After leaving the craft store, Elaine kept the gift box in her arms and couldn't stop loving it.
Natasha was beside herself and said, "Your dad would have loved this."
Hearing this, Elaine was in a much better mood.
While sitting next to the cold drink store for a drink, Natasha saw Elaine kept looking at her phone and asked, "Elaine, what's wrong?"
Elaine looked up, "Nothing, I was just checking to see if there was any news ......"
"News?"
Elaine exhaled, "My dad was in a meeting yesterday until now, and I wonder if something happened."
Natasha comforted: "It's okay, your father's position, every day would have been busy because of a variety of things, I guess this time the matter is more trouble, deal with it after the good. And if something really big happened, it would have been in the news."
Elaine stirred the popcorn ice in front of her and nodded gently, "We'll see when he comes back tonight."
Natasha took a sip of the drink in front of her and then pointed to her collarbone: "Here, you've been bitten, huh?"
Elaine first froze, and after reacting, she hurriedly raised her hand to cover up, her face instantly turning red.
Natasha's original intention was that she was not bitten by mosquitoes, and seeing this reaction, she immediately had an idea, with an incredible glint in her eyes, "You wouldn't be having sex with your boyfriend, would you ......"
Elaine stuffed a piece of cake in her mouth and didn't retort, just that even her ears were so red they could drip blood.
Natasha gets it.
She swallowed the cake and asked immediately afterwards, "No, you're moving too fast, how long have you known each other?"
Elaine said, "It's been a long ...... time."
"A long time? A childhood friend? Have I met?"
"Not ...... childhood friends, but ......" Elaine didn't know what to say, whispered, "met. "
Natasha became even more curious and guessed all the friends she knew, knew, and had around Elaine, but none of them were.
She couldn't really think of anyone else, so she dropped the link and asked further, "So have you prevented it?"
Elaine couldn't understand what she was trying to say.
Natasha anxiously "tsk" sound, simply get up and do next to her, with only two people can hear the voice said: "wear condoms ah."
Elaine: "......"
It was only after a long time that she stifled two words, "No."
