Chapter 102 Aren’t You Tired, Austin?
Suny just rang the doorbell and the door opened, Alicia pushed the door aside and came straight up with a bear hug.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
She stood in the doorway and looked down at her with a smile, “What, you’re having a children’s day when others have New Year? Are you getting more and more childish?”
Alicia grunted, “Heartless! Cold!”
Suny raised her eyebrows and handed the bag she was carrying towards Alicia.
Alicia, who had just called her heartless and cold, was already spinning and jumping with the bag: “Oh my God, a limited edition bag from B family! Ahhhhh! I love you so much, Suny! I’m going to go crazy for you!”
Suny raised her hand to block her face, “No, thanks, leave it to Ashley.”
Hearing the words “Ashley”, Alicia, who was crazy about the bag, finally calmed down, “What do you want to drink? Fruit juice or soy milk? Freshly made! It’s so delicious and pure!”
Suny sat down on the sofa and looked up at her with a smiling look, not saying anything.
Alicia was so vain at the look that she hid her love bag behind her back and smiled, “Well, it’s actually soy milk that I just squeezed on a whim.”
Alicia could not even cook rice, to be honest, Suny was afraid that she had to see a doctor if she drank the soy milk made by Alicia.
Suny, always modest, admitted to herself that her body could not bear it: “Pour me a cup of warm water.”
“Okay! Wait, Suny!”
Alicia poured her a glass of water and thought of the Woods family, “Any movement from Regan?”
Suny lowered her head and took a sip of warm water, glancing at the orange Alicia was cutting, “Not for now.”
As to whether there would be in the future, it was unknown.
Alicia coldly snorted, “This Woods family had been used to being a bully in C City all these years, it’s time to give them a lesson and show them what it means to have people who are more powerful than them!”
Suny raised her eyebrows, “What, you have an idea?”
“Hey, it’s simple! Why don’t you just ask Secretary Lee to grab their business?”
Suny tsked, “Do you pay for it?”
Alicia answered: “Ignore me!”
Poor people don’t deserve to talk!
Suny laughed, “Bad idea.”
Although the Woods family was a hegemon in C City, it did not mean that the Woods family’s industries were also a hegemon in C City.
The Woods family made their fortune mainly from bag materials and then transformed into a women’s bag company, the main market was the domestic market.
But in recent years their brand of bag shops had closed down nearly two hundred, and it had switched to doing mother and baby products.
For this kind of traditional industry, if Suny really wanted to strick them, it was not necessary to seize their market.
Their capital chain or raw material suppliers, apart from problems, were deadly enough to them, but it would just take some time.
“By the way, you haven’t run into Austin during this time, have you?”
Hearing Alicia’s words, Suny’s fingers moved slightly as she looked down and took a sip of water, “No.”
“Hmph! How come I didn’t find Austin so shameless before!”
Suny thought for a moment, “Maybe I used to be more shameless than him.”
Alicia was stunned for a moment, “No, you were brave! What do you mean by shameless? You’re married, and when you’re married, you wanted to cultivate a relationship with your husband, is that shameless? Now you’re divorced! Divorced means there is no relationship anymore! It’s shameless for him to keep pestering you!”
Suny smiled, “It makes sense.”
At this time, Ashley came out of the kitchen with steamed fish: “It’s time to eat.”
It had been a long time since the three of them had gotten together like this. Alicia brought out a bottle of red wine, and they finished it while chatting about the past.
It was said to be a conversation about the past, but in fact it was all Alicia talking and Suny listening, while Ashley was responsible for picking fish bones and peeling shrimp shells for Alicia.
Suny drank two glasses of red wine and watched as they showed their love to each other.
The three of them chatted until eleven o’clock, when Suny yawned and Alicia wrapped up her torrent of words, “Will you sleep over here tonight?”
“No, I need to go back to my bed.”
“… Okay, okay, then we’ll walk you downstairs.”
“No, you’d better go to bed early and then cherish your last day off tomorrow.”
Alicia had to start work on the set on the fourth day of the year.
Suny glanced at Ashley, “I gotta go.”
Ashley and Alicia put her into the lift, it was after eleven o’clock and the second day of the New Year, and not a single person could be seen outside.
Suny had drunk and could no longer drive.
She took out her mobile phone with the intention of taking a taxi, but it showed that no one had taken the order.
In small cities, it was so late on the second day of the year, everyone was spending time with families at home.
Suny put away her mobile phone, intending to walk to a nearby square and see if she could take a taxi.
The roads were decorated with red lanterns and many shop fronts were decorated with red paper, making them very festive, but the roads were empty with people.
Suny paused, “Come out.”
When Austin heard her voice, he subconsciously ducked towards a billboard to the side.
Suny turned back, “You’ve been following me all day, aren’t you tired, Austin?”
She said softly, her eyebrows raised slightly, not exactly angry.
Austin sidled out, the two of them were more than three meters apart, the light from the bus stop reflected on Suny’s face. She looked at him, smiling slightly, but there was some coldness under her eyes, “I didn’t know that you have a fetish for stalking people.”
Austin frowned, he knew Suny had misunderstood, but he had indeed followed her all day today, although the intention was not what she thought, but he could not refute this fact.
“It’s hard to get a taxi, I’ll give you a lift back.”
Without answering her words, he lifted his leg and took two steps to Suny.
Suny had no make-up on today, wearing a white knitted hat and a beige scarf that blocked half of her face, leaving those charming eyes to look at him.
He had seen these eyes of hers when she was really smiling, seductive and cold, all unlike now, when they were only cold.
Suny raised her eyebrows as she recalled Alicia’s words and felt ridiculous.
Just as she was about to open her mouth, a white van suddenly pulled up in front of her.
Suny subconsciously took two steps backwards, and Austin stepped across to protect her.
Four men stepped out of the van, all holding a baseball bat in their hands.
Austin looked back at Suny, “Don’t be afraid.”
He said, touching her hand and slipping the car key inside her palm, “The car is parked in the car park across the street, I’ll stop them later, you run over and drive away.”
Suny glanced down at the car key inside her palm and frowned slightly, “What about you?”
Austin froze, and after reacting, he gave her a look, “Don’t worry about me.”
Suny hooked her lips once and didn’t speak again.
Several black-clad men from the van had already approached over, “Hold the man down! Get that woman for me!”
At the same time, Austin tugged at Suny’s wrist and threw her off with force, “Run!”
