Chapter 190 Is This What They Call a Surprise?
At night, Ebony had originally thought that it would be difficult for her to fall asleep.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she lay down in bed, she was fast asleep.
Although the house was different from the one in her youth, it still made her subconsciously feel at ease.
The next day, Lloyd got up very early.
After he woke up, he went to knock on Ebony's door.
However, there was no sound for a long time inside the room.
Lloyd frowned, and he continued to knock for a while, but there was still no response.
Lloyd was a little worried, he took out the spare key from the drawer of the coffee table and opened the door.
In the room, the blackout curtains were completely closed.
In the dark room, Lloyd could vaguely see that in the two-meter wide bed, the girl was completely nestled in the quilt like a baby, breathing evenly.
The sound of footsteps was very loud.
But the girl on the bed still didn't open her eyes.
Lloyd looked serious. He walked over quickly, sat on the edge of the bed, and reached out to touch the girl's forehead.
It's not hot. She didn't get a fever.
Then she...
At this moment, the girl on the bed moved.
Lloyd thought she was about to wake up.
But Ebony just turned over, then continued to bury her face in the quilt, and stretched out to sleep.
At this time, Lloyd's expression changed again.
After a while, he silently retracted his hand, got up, and left the room.
When closing the door, Lloyd's face was still very gloomy.
The first time he found out that Ebony had a problem with light sleep was during the filming of "Pledge".
At that time, Director Grant asked them to run with each other's characters, and they would watch love movies almost every night.
However, Ebony couldn't watch those movies at all, but would always fall asleep.
But no matter how soundly she slept, as long as he moved, she would wake up immediately.
Like instinct, she was vigilant about everything around her.
When he put a blanket on her and she woke up.
When he put her in bed and she would wake up.
When he hugged her and she woke up even more.
At first, every time she woke up, she would have a fierce look in her eyes.
Gradually, she seemed to get used to him and became less resistant, but she would still wake up.
She had always been very defensive.
Even today, he considered himself so familiar with her.
But she woke up yesterday when he put a blanket over her in the car.
She was like a bow that was always full at any time.
But today, this was the first time that she had not woken up under the interference of a powerful external force.
Lloyd didn't know what to say.
He just didn't expect that even an empty house related to Pine's family could make her relax.
Then, how heavy was the burden on her heart?
He didn't know what she had been through.
There was no more information in those documents.
At this moment, Lloyd was a little depressed.
Because for the first time he realized that maybe he didn't know Ebony well enough...
When Ebony woke up again, it was already half past nine.
She felt so happy in this house that she hugged the quilt and rolled around on the bed. After a while, she changed her clothes and went out.
As soon as she walked out of the living room, she saw Lloyd was on the phone.
He said to the other side of the phone, "I can't arrive until after one o'clock. Yep."
After a few words, he hung up the phone.
Seeing her coming out, he asked casually, "Sleep well?"
Ebony was a little embarrassed, she scratched her head and said, "Did I waste your time? I'm sorry, why didn't you wake me up?"
Lloyd didn't answer her question, just said, "To wash your face."
Ebony quickly went to the bathroom to wash.
On the washstand, Ebony found that Lloyd had squeezed the toothpaste for her.
Ebony didn't dare to delay. After she finished washing up, she wiped her face and ran out.
Ebony was left behind by the buyer.
She had nothing except a set of casual clothes and a set of military uniforms.
So she had to follow Lloyd!
She has no money and no mobile phone, so she could only beg for food if she left Lloyd!
They didn't set off until nearly ten o'clock, and Lloyd drove the car very fast.
Ebony was even more embarrassed, she shrunk in the passenger seat, not daring to make any sound the whole time.
Three hours later, they arrived at a five-star hotel in the city center.
Ebony curiously leaned over the car window and looked into the hotel.
Lloyd got out of the car.
Ebony didn't move. She touched her stomach, thinking in her heart, "How long was Lloyd going to be busy? Could he bring her some food when he came out?"
When Lloyd was about to close the car door, he found the girl stuck to the passenger seat, motionless.
He knocked on the car window and tilted his head, "Hmm?"
Ebony puffed out her cheeks and said, "Don't worry about me, go and do your business. I'll wait for you in the car. It's okay to leave me a sew."
Lloyd chuckled, and he asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"
Ebony was stunned, "But aren't you busy with work?"
Lloyd waved to her, "Let's go."
Ebony looked confused, but hurriedly followed Lloyd and got out of the car.
The decoration of a five-star hotel should have been elegant and magnificent.
However, the moment she stepped into this hotel, Ebony was shocked by the huge rose arch in the center of the hall.
The arch was big and round, dreamy and childlike.
But this was not the most amazing, the most amazing was that there was actually a beautiful pink castle next to the arch!
In the castle, there were actually seven little boys, dressed as seven dwarfs, sweeping the floor with brooms.
On the other side of the arch, there was a sea of flowers.
The stairs and railings of the hotel were wrapped with branches and vines.
This hotel looked like a real "Grimm's Fairy Tale"!
Ebony twitched the corner of her mouth fiercely.
She had a strange expression and asked Lloyd beside her in a stern tone, "You, do you see it?"
Lloyd kept silent for a while, then took a deep breath, "Yes."
Ebony patted her chest and greeted with relief, "Fortunately, you can also see it, or I would think I was hell in broad daylight!"
Was this a hotel or Disneyland?!
Lloyd didn't speak. He frowned and swept the hall from top to bottom. After scanning the whole circle, he rubbed his eyebrows with a headache and exhaled, "Is this what they call a surprise?"
Ebony looked at Lloyd, "What surprise?"
Lloyd didn't answer, he took Ebony and entered the elevator.
The elevator was also decorated into a tree house.
Lloyd pressed the eighteenth floor.
At the moment the door opened, what they saw was the red carpet, petals, a crown, a scepter...
Ebony was speechless.
Lloyd was speechless, too.
"Auntie!" Kelly's excited voice sounded at this time.
Ebony looked up and saw Kelly in the corridor ahead who was wearing a white evening dress and combing her hair like an adult, running towards her excitedly.
Kelly's dress was so cute, completely different from her style in daily life.
Ebony was shocked, she asked, "Why are you here?"
Kelly came over sticky to hold her aunt's arm, and said coquettishly, "We booked this hotel for a birthday party. That's why I am here! Auntie, Come in with me. You guys are not coming, everyone is waiting..."
Kelly dragged Ebony to the banquet hall while saying.
So, five minutes later, Ebony, in a black t-shirt, black trousers, and black sneakers, with a ball head stuck on her head, was pushed into a group of urban ladies and business elites who were dressed in fragrant temples.
The mother of the Gibson family, Ms. Chasidah, was sitting on the sofa in the corner of the banquet hall.
She sighed with her third daughter-in-law Lydia, "You guys are also kind. Thank you for remembering that today is my little sister's birthday, yes, her 20th birthday, her big birthday. We need to hold a party for her. But she's not here..."
Lydia patted the back of her mother's hand and comforted, "Mom, today is a good day. Cheer up. Okay?"
Chasidah pressed the corner of her eye with a tissue and agreed, "Okay, I won't cry."
A few days ago, the family suddenly started preparing for her daughter's 20th birthday party.
The hotel they originally booked was in Wutgas. Later, for some reason, they changed their mind and said they would go back to throw a party.
Chasidah certainly had no opinion.
Although the party was held in Clarida, there were still many relatives, friends, and business partners, including many from Europe and Asia.
Looking at the young girls on the field, Chasidah couldn't help thinking, that if her daughter was here, she should be as slim and beautiful as them.
At this moment, a black figure suddenly came into her eyes!
Chasidah didn't care at first, thinking that the waiter came in without changing his clothes.
She was about to turn her eyes away when she noticed that her granddaughter, Kelly, was holding the arm of the "waiter".
Chasidah froze for a moment, and she took another curious look.
At this time, the "waiter" turned her head in confusion.
Chasidah was in a position to see her face clearly ......
"Ah!" Lydia was filled with dread suddenly. Her wrist pain was as if her wrist bone had been crushed!
Lydia looked back in dismay and saw that her mother-in-law was grabbing her hand tightly.
The nails of her hand were white!
Lydia shouted in panic, "Mom, what are you doing?"
Chasidah grabbed Lydia's hand with one hand and lifted the other.
Her fingertips trembled and pointed forward, and asked in a shaky voice, "That, that, that girl..."
Lydia followed the line of sight she pointed to look over.
At this moment, she saw Kelly, who was like a pack of chewing gum.
The other was Ebony, who was touching the buffet area, sneaky to pick up the cream cupcakes into her plate...
