The next day, when I got up, he was not in the room. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When I touched the bed, it was already cool, indicating that he had already left. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I wanted to go to the bathroom but I heard the water in it. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Who?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I was startled. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
At this time, a servant came out of the bathroom and looked at me apologetically and said, “Miss Carter.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Why are you here now? Don’t you usually come in the afternoon?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I looked at the servant suspiciously. Although she usually cleaned the house, I doubted everyone and everything after yesterday. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The servant said respectfully, “Mr. Jessop has me picked up in the morning and asked me to clean up here.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I thought it was strange and went into the bathroom. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It was almost cleaned. The sapphire blue bathrobe Sean wore yesterday was not hung in the original place. “Where is the blue bathrobe?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I saw it on the ground when I came in, so I washed it directly.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The servant explained to me. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“OK.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I replied. I thought something was wrong, but I couldn’t say it. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When I wanted to ask her more, my cell phone rang in the bedroom. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I knew it was Daisy. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I picked up the phone and she yelled, “what time is it? Why haven’t you come? I’m angry.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I’m sorry. I’ll go out now.” I looked up at my watch. It was over 11 o’clock. I went to bed late yesterday, so I got up now. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I hung up and washed my face and changed. I was going to take a taxi. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But as soon as I went out, I saw Sean’s car parked at the door. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When I saw his car, I was shocked. I thought he was going to drive me, so I rushed to the copilot. I opened the door and wanted to say hello. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Miss Carter.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The man in the car said hello to me first. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It was Eric. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I couldn’t hide my disappointment, but I smiled reluctantly and sat in the copilot, “Eric.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“President Jessop is busy and let me drive you.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Eric replied respectfully. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I responded and didn’t say a word all the way. As I approached Daisy’s house, I asked, “Eric, do you know where Sean went last night?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Last night? I don’t know. I follow President Jessop almost only during the day.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Eric said calmly. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
His words were very formulaic and he answered very quickly. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He seemed to have been ready to answer my question. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I knew Sean would order his assistant if he hid something from me. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The car soon arrived at Daisy’s house. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I went upstairs with my present. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It was the first time I had seen her since I disfigured. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I knocked on the door. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The door opened in less than three seconds. The woman in the room held me with open arms. “Long time no see. I miss you so much.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
She looked down at the two gifts in my hand and said with a smile, “Hey, I said you don’t have to prepare gifts.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
She picked up the two presents and looked up at my mask. “Why do you come to my house wearing a mask? You are becoming more and more like the wife of the rich.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Daisy raised her hand and took off my mask before I reacted! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The joy on her face suddenly turned into shock, “what’s wrong with your face?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Well, it’s a long story.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I went into the house. This time, Daisy’s house was clean. I soon found a place to sit down. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Daisy was sitting opposite me. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It took me about an hour and a half to tell her that I was kidnapped by Molly and the black people had AIDS, and then Sean found out when I was abroad and I decided to have a facelift. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
She was shocked. “Molly is so shameless! How dare she go abroad! Don’t let me see her or I’ll skin her!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“OK.” Today was Daisy’s birthday. I didn’t want to tell her anything more complicated. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I took her to the two presents and said with a smile, “one of them is from me and the other is from someone else.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Someone else?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Daisy looked at me suspiciously. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I nodded mysteriously. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
She took out the pair of shoes I gave first. When she saw a pair of high heels inside, she looked very happy, “Wow! This is a limited edition!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Daisy took it out and walked around the room wearing it. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Then she took it off and patted the sole with her hand. She came up to me with satisfaction and kissed me, “I like this gift.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“That’s good.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I said it so as not to reveal which was my gift. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Actually, I hadn’t opened Jack’s gift and I didn’t know what was inside. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Daisy put the shoes back in the box and quickly opened the purple jewelry box. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
There was a bohemian style colorful bracelet in it. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It was beautiful and exaggerated. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
She took the bracelet out and put it on. There was no superfluous expression on her face. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I couldn’t see if she was happy. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I thought Daisy didn’t like it. When I wanted to tell her that Jack sent the bracelet, she said, “who sent this? He knows me well.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Huh?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I looked at Daisy in surprise. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
She wore the bracelet and turned to look at me. “Well, I know you gave me the high heels. Whose gift is this bracelet? I think it’s necessary for me to know the person with good taste.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Daisy’s words left me wondering what to say. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“It’s not from Sean, is it?” Daisy knew I was embarrassed, so she joked, “I didn’t think he knew women before.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When Daisy said it, she seemed to realize something. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
She looked at me displeased. “Is this bracelet from Jack?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Yes.” I nodded helplessly. I wanted to tell her what happened that day, but I thought of Sean helping him, so I just said, “I met him that day when I was buying presents.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“He must be buying clothes with a woman!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Daisy knew Jack very well. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Lunch time was over. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I went shopping with Daisy. She bought a lot of clothes and then we decided to find a coffee shop for a rest. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When we were about to enter a coffee shop, I saw a man and a woman walking out of a French cafe not far away. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
One was in a black coat and the other was in a white cape. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
They matched very well. <\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
