Chapter 25 Bill's Real Intention
Bill soon got the whereabouts of Euralia. That afternoon, he put aside his work and came to wait for her around Mandy's house.
Euralia had never left the family over the past twelve years. He always felt that she would not be able to sleep or eat well as he did when she left.
After all, they had been together for so long, and it was not easy for them to get used to being separated all of a sudden.
For the whole afternoon, Bill kept his eyes on the door of Mandy's house until two figures suddenly appeared not far away.
Euralia was holding Mandy's hand. They burst into laughter from time to time, looking very happy.
In the car, Bill's eyes were filled with disappointment and his hands were slightly clenched.
He immediately asked the driver to drive back. As soon as he got home, he let someone to investigate the identity of Mandy.
Finally, he knew that Mandy was the best friend of Euralia. Mandy was living alone now and her parents were doing business abroad all the year round.
On the weekend, in the early morning, Mandy came to Euralia's room to invite her to have a shopping but was refused on the account of tiredness.
In deed, Euralia didn't have much cash on her. She had been living in Mandy's house these days and felt very sorry.
If she had gone shopping with Mandy, she would have bought her some clothes again. So she stayed at home and took a nap. By the way, Mandy got a couple of friends to go shopping with her.
However, after Mandy went out, there was a car following her in a suitable distance to the outside of the shopping mall.
Mandy's friend had something urgent to deal with, so she had to go shopping alone.
The wardrobe of women would never be cleaned with few clothes. Mandy was no exception.
As soon as she entered the mall, she was attracted by a dress. When she walked over and was about to pick up the dress, someone already had it in the hand.
"I saw this dress first." Mandy looked up as she spoke.
"Are you Miss Mandy?" Bill smiled at her.
That is just a fake smile! His eyes were still indifferent.
"You know me?" Surprised and flattered, Mandy looked down and snickered. Of course, she still remembered that the man in front of her was none other than Euralia's brother, Bill!
His appearance was very impressive, and so was his temperament...
Mandy began to imagine with mixed feelings.
"Of course I do. You are the best friend of Euralia."
"I remember you. You are Euralia's elder brother." Mandy held onto Bill's arm with great enthusiasm.
Bill took a sideways glance at her hand that was touching him and felt a little unhappy.
"I'm sorry. I was just too excited. You know me, right? Does Euralia often mention me in front of you?" Mandy withdrew her hand in embarrassment and pretended to be shy.
"It doesn't matter. Since you are Euralia's best friend, you are also my friend." Bill replied.
"That's good. Do you like this dress?" Mandy pointed at the dress which she dreamed of.
"We can buy it for Euralia. I don't know if she likes it or not." Bill picked up the dress and looked at it on purpose.
"She must like it. I know her too well. But I also like this dress very much. We two have the same taste." Mandy kept talking about how close she and Euralia were.
"Euralia wears size S. What size do you wear?"
"The same as her." Mandy's eyes lit up. She never dreamed that she could go out and chat with such a tall, rich and handsome man.
At the same time, she envied Euralia in her heart for having such a sweet brother. He knew what size she was going to wear and came to the shopping mall to buy her clothes.
Bill bought two dresses, one for Mandy as a gift, and the other for Euralia.
Mandy refused again and again, but Bill handed the dress to her insistently and invited her to have dinner with him for taking care of Euralia.
This beautiful night was truly unforgettable for Mandy. A sumptuous dinner was served, and there was a handsome man sitting in front of her. Her heart began to beat fast.
Bill raised the cup and said, "Miss Yang, thank you for taking care of Euralia these days. You're a kind and generous girl. I appreciate that."
He was a businessman and had dealt with girls like her with ease.
"I like you too." She was quite straightforward. He raised his goblet and drank it up.
A sly smile appeared on his face!
After dinner, Bill drove Mandy home in person.
All the way, she pretended to be asleep. She closed her eyes and deliberately leaned in the direction of him.
"It's soft and comfortable. And there's also his attractive smell." She couldn't bear to open her eyes, feeling delightful secretly in her heart.
When she arrived at her home, her eyes were still shut, waiting for the good-bye kiss in the movies.
She waited for a long time, but there was no movement. So she opened her eyes and found that she was holding a pillow.
She mistook it for his arm and kissed it a few times before.
"Miss Yang, we're home." The driver of Bill reminded. Then he glanced at the pillow she was holding.
Bill's eyes were already fixed on the home of Mandy. He was looking forward to the familiar voice with eager expectancy.
"Thank you, Mr. Bill." Mandy stood up in embarrassment and got out of the car with her triumphant products in her hand.
"I hope that you could take good care of Euralia," Bill turned his head and answered politely.
"Don't worry. They are all with me. But Mr. Bill, shouldn't we leave each other's phone number so that we can contact easily?" Mandy asked.
Now, Bill needed her help to get close to Euralia. He didn't refuse her request and exchanged phone numbers with her.
After getting the number of Bill, Mandy was even more ecstatic, because she believed that she could see him tomorrow.
She didn't enter the house until she saw Bill's car disappear at the corner.
The living room was empty.
"Euralia, where are you? Let me tell you a big surprise. " Raising the dress that Bill gave her, Mandy yelled in the living room and grinned from ear to ear.
The price of the dress was so high that she could just look at it if she hadn't met him today. She was so lucky to have a girlfriend like Euralia.
When Mandy walked to the door of Euralia's room, she was still asleep. She had to put her stuff aside and went to the dressing room to wear her new clothes to show off for a long time.
The next morning, Mandy got up early, took out her cell phone and looked through it.
Last night, when she got off the car, she deliberately left her wallet in it. She happened to be free today. If he came to return her wallet, she could go out and have a fun day with him.
At 9 o'clock in the morning, her phone rang as expected. It was a call from Bill. She rushed to the washroom to dress up and bumped into Euralia who was brushing her teeth. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
"Mandy, why are you in such a hurry?"
Euralia was in a slip dress. Her hair was loose and her eyes were sleepy.
"You'll know very soon."
Euralia was confused. After freshening up, she went to the living room and sat on the couch to watch news on TV.
Mandy rushed out of the door as fast as she could. She was nowhere to be found before Euralia could finish her words.
"What's wrong with her today?"
She picked up the snacks on the table and continued to enjoy them.
"Mr. Bill, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting. Thank you for coming all the way to return my wallet." Mandy stood outside the car door elegantly.
"No trouble at all." Bill passed her the wallet and glanced at her house from time to time.
"Would you like to come to my house and have a cup of tea?" She just wanted to spend more time with him.
Bill agreed without hesitation. He saw the wallet that Mandy left in the car last night, and everything was just as he wished.
He just wanted to check on Euralia.
Mandy opened the door. Euralia was sitting on the sofa in the living room and eating snacks, asking with a lisp.
"Mandy, what are you going out for? How could you run so fast?"
Mandy turned her eyes and looked at Bill awkwardly.
"Don't believe what she said."
"I know you don't want me to wait for you," Bill smiled and looked at the woman on the sofa who was in a nightgown.
Mandy blushed and lowered her head. She thought it was the so-called tacit understanding.
Hearing this voice, Euralia turned around suddenly. She saw Mandy was looking for a pair of slippers for him and they seemed to be quite familiar.
She was confused. Mandy didn't know her brother at all. Why would she invite him to her house?
What was going on? She couldn't help but wonder.
Just as she was wondering, Bill had come over and sat next to her. She was ready to accept his lecture.
She was about to ask him, but he spoke first.
"Miss Yang, will you be too lonely to live alone?" Without even looking at her, Bill asked about the residential condition of her best friend.
Mandy was surprised and joyful secretly. But she couldn't help wondering what that meant.
"Euralia will stay with me, so I don't feel like that for now." She cast an ambiguous glance at him.
From the moment he came in, he didn't take a look at Euralia, nor did he ask about her life. He was very indifferent to her.
Euralia was a little disappointed. She picked up the snacks in her hand and kept putting them into the mouth. She couldn't bear the ambiguous atmosphere in the living room anymore. She chose to shut her mouth and watch their performance.
Mandy was in a good mood and immediately rushed to make a cup of tea and handed it to Bill.
"Be careful. Put it down first." Bill didn't take the cup.
"I'm thirsty." Euralia picked up the tea that Mandy brought and directly drank it.
"Euralia, your brother is here. Why don't you speak to him? He was so considerate to you that he went to buy clothes for you after he knew that you lived in my house."
Mandy changed the topic to Euralia. She had told Bill last night that she would take care of her.
Besides, if she could help him persuade his sister to go back home, he would have a better impression of her.
"Mandy, when did you two meet? Why do you invite him home?" She gave him a stern look.
"We just met, but he is so nice to you. Please don't be angry." Mandy knew Euralia's temper well. She was stubborn enough that she could not change her mind. But she still tried to persuade her hypocritically.
"If he had treated me so well, I wouldn't have come here." In Euralia's heart, she could never forgive his control over her.
"I came here to bring the wallet today." Bill answered word by word.
He was obviously telling Euralia that he came here not for her, but for Mandy.
"I understand your kindness." Mandy was being sentimental again. And she sat very close to him!
