Female Novel
Chapter 1112
I sat on the hospital bed and watched him as he tidied up the clothes. I couldn't help but say,"Hendrix, when you grow old and you don't have any money, you can find a job as a housekeeper."
He put the folded clothes into the luggage and looked up at me as he asked, "Do you think I willhave no money?"
I couldn't help but pause for a moment. Then, I shook my head and said, "No!" With his ability, evenif he had no money, he wouldn't need to go that far.
He was putting all of the toiletries into the tub that he had brought while I was in the hospital. Icouldn't move at all, so the tub was for me to wipe my body.
"Do you need to take this with you?" It seemed that the villa didn't need anything like that.novelbin
He stayed quiet. The toiletries in the basin were all new, and almost all of them had not been used.If he didn't take those things back, we would leave them at the hospital.
It was a waste, but it seemed that we didn't need to take them home.
Besides, he didn't look like a person who would take all of those little things into consideration.
Outside, the cleaner knocked on the door, came in and greeted us with a smile, and then began toclean up.
In the past few days, I had seen her several times. She seemed to be mute. When she saw people,even if she was smiling, she did not speak.
Hendrix walked to her side, placed the basin on her cleaning rack, and then gestured to her with hishand.
She nodded gratefully. I didn't really understand what was going on, but I didn't interrupt theirinteraction.
Downstairs, at the parking lot,
After we got into the car, I looked at Hendrix and said, "Mr. Roberts, I've noticed that you're gettingmore and more down-to-earth."
He smiled and fastened my seat belt for me. Then, he said, "I don't want to be otherworldly. Bydoing this, I can enjoy life with my loved ones. I want to be with you guys more than anything."
When the car started, he drove with one hand and pulled my hand with the other. I couldn't helpreminding him, "This is dangerous!"
He raised his eyebrows, asking, "You don't believe in your husband's skills?"
I smiled and stopped talking.
After I got better, I naturally started to work. Hendrix would secretly investigate the incident. I didn'thave any connections and manpower, so things wouldn't be easy for me if I were the one toinvestigate it.
The Lancille Village project continued on, and as the person responsible for its progress, I naturallyhad to be present.
After resting in the villa for a day, I packed up my things and went straight to Lancille Village.
Naomi had nothing left to do other than staying home with Sebastian, so she came looking for me.
Since the project had started, everyone was busy. She decided to help out.
In the evening, when we returned to the hotel, Naomi was so tired that she was wailing on the bed,"I'm not a greedy person, but I'm busy from morning to night, yet I don't get paid a salary, and I don'teven have my own room. What a tragedy!"
I smiled faintly and said, "How about I help you apply through Mr. Milton to let you officially join theMilton Group and become an employee? That way, you will have a position."
She rolled her eyes at me, retorting, "Why would I want that? I'm incredibly busy. I want to be theboss. I don't want a staff member's meager salary. I'm not short on money!"
I shrugged and said nothing more. She looked at me as if she had thought of something and said,"By now, Sebastian should be done with his work, right?"
I raised my eyebrows and said, "He should be."
She immediately went into the bathroom with her clothes in her arms and said, "You don't have towait for me later. I won't come back tonight!"
Any adult would understand the meaning behind her words. I shrugged my shoulders and didn't sayanything else.
Upon getting a call from Hendrix, I realized that I had failed to tell him that I was going to stay atLancille Village for the night.
After picking up the phone, I asked in a soft voice, "Honey, are you home?"
