Chapter 314 Oh, Right. I Seem to Have a Biological Father...
Mathew, "..."
Ivan, "..."
Mathew took a second look and found that it was really a kitchen knife!
Mathew was freaked out!
He, in a panic, hurriedly swerved to turn the car!
The tires left black tracks in the middle of the road. And with a "vroom" sound, the sports car headed for the outside of the community!
Lloyd got out of the car some distance from his home.
Ivan and Mathew didn't want to walk him off. They were scared to get into the fight and died without a trace.
Lloyd slowly walked back.
When he walked back to the front door, Ebony was no longer under the street light.
The man raised his eyebrows and opened the gate with his fingerprints. The next second...
Lloyd was speechless.
Looking at the girl, who was standing in the entryway, holding a kitchen knife in each of her hands, and looking at him with a cold, grim look, Lloyd fell silent.
After a short while, Lloyd tried to soften his voice and asked softly, "... What? You're still awake?"
Ebony raised her hands.
Then...
"Creak, creak."
The girl carelessly turned the two kitchen knives in her hands. And she rubbed the blades of the two knives against each other.
All of a sudden, the entire hall was filled with the ear-piercing noise of the dangerous knives crunching against each other.
Lloyd, "..."
Lloyd took two steps forward. After getting closer to the girl, he carefully stretched out to hold the back of her hand and said, "It's..."
He didn't have the chance to finish his sentence with the word "dangerous".
The girl turned her wrist. The blade of the kitchen knife turned. The tip of the sharp blade was aimed at Lloyd.
Lloyd, "..."
Lloyd looked up at the girl across from him.
Ebony raised her eyebrows and looked Lloyd up and down. After a moment, she took the kitchen knife back and asked in a cold voice, "Where did you go?"
Lloyd said, "Something about work."
Ebony squinted and stared at Lloyd for a moment longer. And then, she replied, "Oh."
After that, she lowered her head and continued to make that torturing noise with the two kitchen knives.
Lloyd, "..."
Lloyd sighed. He took the kitchen knife out of the girl's hand and put it on the cabinet. Then he took her hand and explained, "Director Nicolas asked me to talk about a new script. He's a prestigious master. I can't turn down his offer."
Of course, Ebony knew who Director Charles Nicolas was.
The godfather of the domestic film industry. Even Director Knapp, who got an Oscar with the film "Ancient Alley", had to address himself as a student in front of Director Nicolas.
Ebony frowned, "Isn't Director Nicolas retired?"
Lloyd took Ebony's hand and led her into the living room. After letting her sit down, he sat down next to her and said, "The script was an old one that he wanted to shoot a long time ago. But he couldn't find the right state then. So, it was delayed. Now, he wants to restart the shooting."
When Lloyd said that, Ebony suddenly remembered.
She remembered that in her last life Director Nicolas seemed to have made a comeback by making a new film. It was rumored on the internet that the leading actor chosen was Lloyd.
But later, the rumor spread for two years. However, there was not a trace of that movie. So, everyone said that the movie seemed to have failed. And there was no more news.
Anyway, until Ebony's death, she had never heard of any follow-up to that film.
She thought of the time that the first time she heard about this movie in her last life seemed to be these days.
Ebony stared at Lloyd for a while longer. He didn't look like he was lying. A while later, she gave a "hump" and withdrew her hand. Then, she got up and walked upstairs.
Looking at her back, Lloyd sighed but followed.
When they reached the stairs, Lloyd suddenly asked, "You wait for me till now. Is it because you're worried about me?"
Ebony ignored him and walked directly to her door. Then Ebony turned to look at Lloyd and said, "It's 4:30 a.m. You've half committed 'all night out'. Minus ten points!"
After that, she slammed the door shut, which sounded like a "pop"!
Lloyd, "..."
In the corridor, looking at the closed door, Lloyd was silent at first. A while later, his inky eyes gradually filled with a gentle light.
The next day, when Ebony got up and went downstairs, she heard the maid muttering suspiciously, "Why are my kitchen knives on top of the shoe cabinet?"
Ebony, "..."
Ebony rubbed her face sheepishly and didn't say anything.
The maid saw her coming down and didn't dwell on the kitchen knives. She greeted Ebony, "Miss Gibson, you can come for breakfast."
"Okay." Ebony hurriedly answered and ran towards the dining room.
When Ebony just sat down, Lloyd was also coming down from upstairs.
After the maid served breakfast to the two of them, she said by the way, "Young master, Madam called in the morning, saying that you should call her back when you wake up. She has something important to talk to you about"
Something important?
Lloyd paused for a second. And then he took out his cell phone and made a long-distance call to his mother.
A few minutes later, Lloyd hung up the phone. He looked across at Ebony and said, "Chadwick will be back today."
Ebony froze.
"Chadwick?"
Today was a rare day for Chadwick to come home from the barracks. Usually, the Gibson family would get together for a family dinner on a day like this.
After all, Chadwick was a soldier fighting on the front line. He might not be able to return at any time.
The Gibson family wanted to ask Ebony to come today. But considering that Ebony might feel weird, they didn't dare to talk to her directly. Finally, Grace spoke to Ebony for them.
Hearing this, Ebony pursed her lips.
After eating breakfast, Ebony went upstairs. By the time she came down again, she had already changed her clothes.
Lloyd gave her a look. When he passed by her, he stroked her hair and then went upstairs himself.
Twenty minutes later, the two set off together.
In the car, Ebony was nervous.
She said, "I haven't met my second elder brother."
Lloyd turned his head to look at her.
Ebony immediately asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong? Am I looking strange?"
Lloyd was silent for a moment. Then, he said in a light voice, "No. It's just that you've never met your father either. But it seems you've never asked about him?"
Ebony, "..."
'Oh, right. I seem to have a biological father...'
Two hours later, the two arrived at Gibson's house.
The Vasquez family, because of Beau Vasquez's career, had purchased a low-key residence.
But the Gibson family was super rich and had a large population.
So, when Ebony saw the Gibson family's castle-like four-story mansion with a huge garden, she was dumbfounded!
After getting out of the car, Lloyd took Ebony's hand and wanted to lead her inside.
Ebony hurriedly took her hand back and looked around furtively, saying, "What if someone sees us?"
Lloyd, "..."
Lloyd didn't say anything in the end and opened the door with the code.
Ebony followed Lloyd carefully all the way inside.
When they reached the main house, they saw the door to the main house was already open. Moses, holding a red-eyed Virginia, was standing there waiting for them.
As soon as Virginia saw Ebony, she immediately ran over. She buried her face into Ebony's arms with a red nose and cried out in an aggrieved tone, "Aunt Ebony."
Ebony picked the little girl up and asked, "What's wrong?"
Virginia extended her finger and showed Ebony the Band-Aid tied to her finger.
Moses said, "Aunt Ebony, Virginia knew you were coming. She wanted to make you some fruit slices. But she cut her finger.."
Ebony gave Virginia a kiss on the spot!
Then, Lloyd glanced at Virginia and felt somewhat threatened. He asked, "Do you know how to make fruit slices?"
Virginia then glanced at Lloyd and answered expressionlessly, "If I could, would I have cut my finger?"
