Chapter 18 Clack-Clack-Clack-Clack
Lloyd Vasquez knocked at the door for about one minute outside but he still heard nothing.
He was about to call Jacob Silva to ask whether they two had already went downstairs. But at that time, the door before him was opened suddenly.
Ebony Gibson walked out with mess dress.
Her dressing was much more different from it was downstairs. Before that, she wore a coat with a white loose preppy shirt and a pair of cyan jeans.
But now, she took off her coat and threw it over her arm. She untied two buttons in the collar of the white shirt, making her fair collarbone seen by others clearly.
Moreover, she blushed unexpectedly instead of being chilly.
It seemed that she was clearly not in good state.
Lloyd Vasquez's face dropped and looked into the room straightly.
However, Ebony Gibson blocked his view to prevent him from seeing. She said vaguely, "Vernon Hale is not well, so he can't go with us. Let's go downstairs." She wanted to close the door backhand.
Lloyd Vasquez pressed on the door with his hand immediately and looked down at her coldly!
Ebony Gibson swallowed and said with a guilty look on her face, "What do you want to do?"
Looking at Ebony Gibson's expression, Lloyd Vasquez's face turned black. He stared at her open collar. He could even see her cleavage from his perspective faintly. He asked coldly, "Do you know the definition of work?"
Ebony Gibson was confused, "What?"
"You haven't made a clear distinction between public and private interests during working hours. Did you always work like that before?"
He rebuked her with a plausible attitude which made Ebony Gibson felt embarrassed. She bit her lips. It was her first time to be rebuked in the show.
She compressed her lips. She only wanted to smooth things over and didn't mind whether she would receive others' apology. She said glumly, "I am wrong, OK? Let's go downstairs first."
"How about Vernon Hale?" Lloyd Vasquez didn't put down his hand. He kept pressing on the door with his clean and slender fingers. Obviously, he didn't want to let her go so easily.
Ebony Gibson was a little bored, "I've said that he is uncomfortable. What are you doing here?"
"Ho!" Lloyd Vasquez sneered. His clean-cut face turned frozen, "Well, I'll ask him what's wrong with him on earth!"
Finishing his words, he walked over Ebony Gibson and opened the door with a loud thud.
The room was in a state of disorder.
The air was freezing at that moment.
Lloyd Vasquez stood at the door. He looked at the naked man, who was covered all over with wound, lying on the floor with head bleeding silently and indifferently.
Vernon Hale had already fainted with weak breath. His hands were twisted in an extremely strange way.
Seeing Lloyd Vasquez knew the fact, Ebony Gibson turned her head and was about to run away.
Her back neck was caught the next second.
Lloyd Vasquez pulled her out and looked at her strangely, "What's the matter?"
Ebony Gibson was caught on the spot. She cared about nothing and gave up defending, "What do you want to know? It was he who caused the dispute. It was he who wanted to play something only happens between adults. So I played a collision game which is set for adults with him by using Isada military martial arts. But I haven't thought that he was so weak that he hit his head when he avoided being beaten. I haven't hit his head and his bleeding head was not caused by me! I have just broken his two hands."
Just ... broke his ... two hands...
Ebony Gibson said reasonably, but she became guilty when seeing Lloyd Vasquez's sight. At last, she muttered, "Well, I have also broken his two legs."
Lloyd Vasquez, "..."
"Well, I will just reset his hands!" Ebony Gibson walked into the room while speaking. She picked up the hand of Vernon Hale who was still fainted. "Clack" --- She reset one of his hand.
"Ah!" Vernon Hale woke up because of the pain at that moment.
"Keep still!" Seeing Vernon Hale tossing about in fright, Ebony Gibson stepped on his chest and held him down. Then, "Clack-Clack-Clack-Clack".
After that, Vernon Hale lifted his eyelids and fainted again because of the pain. No one knew whether his hands and legs were reset.
Lloyd Vasquez, "..."
After that, Ebony Gibson stood up. It was too hot, so she pulled her open collar to fan herself. She looked at Lloyd Vasquez and said, "Now, is it OK?"
Lloyd Vasquez, "..."
Lloyd Vasquez felt a drumming in his temples. He rubbed and said to Ebony Gibson with eyes closed, "You go downstairs first."
Ebony Gibson asked gingerly, "What about you?"
Lloyd Vasquez took a glance at her.
Ebony Gibson ran away swiftly. "I'll wait for you downstairs."
Then, she disappeared from his sight.
Lloyd Vasquez stood in the room and sighed. He finally walked towards Vernon Hale who was still faint and kicked him.
Vernon Hale woke up dazzledly and found Lloyd Vasquez was looking down on him from the heights in front of him.
His hands and legs were very painful. He felt sticky on his face. He wiped with hand and found that his hand was covered with blood. His head was also stinging.
Then, Vernon Hale finally remembered what had happened. He looked fierce and looked around, "Where is that slut?"
Lloyd Vasquez looked at him coldly. He drew up a chair and sat next to him.
Ebony Gibson went downstairs alone instead of being together with Vernon Hale. Even Lloyd was also lost.
Other people asked her what had happened.
Ebony Gibson's face turned red with blush rarely. It seemed that she wanted to escape from others' questions, so she said, "They will go downstairs later."
Jacob Silva was confused, "What had happened? Do we need to go upstairs to have look?"
Other people all thought she looked strange.
After a while, Lloyd Vasquez went downstairs alone.
Rita Obrien asked immediately, "Lloyd, Where is Vernon?"
Lloyd Vasquez said coolly, "He is uncomfortable and wants to have a rest."
"Ah! Wasn't he fine before?"
Ebony Gibson tried to change the subject quickly, "He may still be a little jet-lagged. He said he was unacclimatized when I went upstairs just now. Let's go to the tourist spot directly. The staff will take care of him."
And then, she asked other people to follow her.
Other people had always yielded to Ebony Gibson's prestige all the time, so though they worried about Vernon Hale, they finally followed her when seeing she had already gone out.
They went to the tourist spot by bus. On the bus, Ebony Gibson sat next to Lloyd Vasquez rarely for she had always been a loner and prefer to sit alone instead of sitting together with others before.
She asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with him?"
Lloyd Vasquez glanced at her, "He is all right."
Ebony Gibson stared at him, "What? Is he all right? Am I so gentle?"
"..." Lloyd Vasquez looked at her, "Do you expect to beat him to death?"
Ebony Gibson shook her head immediately.
Lloyd Vasquez sighed and kneaded his eyebrows in the middle.
He heard Ebony Gibson muttering beside him, "It seems that I retrogressed in martial art. I will find one more chance to play a game with him again to exercise my skill."
Lloyd Vasquez, "..."
