Chapter 40 Wait and See
Chapter 40 Wait and See
"Oh, I have arranged with colleagues of the department to have lunch together." This is a fact, but Harry thought that she was still angry.
"Don't be angry. Mother will leave in a few days." Sitting on the sofa, Harry pulled her over onto his laps.
"I am not angry. I do make an appointment with the colleagues at midday." Lola was still unwilling to have lunch with Harry, for seeing him would remind her of his mother...
"Cancel it. I will go on a business trip for a couple of days to A country tonight, taking the latest flight. You must accompany me for lunch today." Harry then called Joey to reserve some dishes and fetch them for lunch.
"Harry...You don't love me after all. There is no need to strain your relationship with your mother for me. I can move out to leave you in peace." Lola looked into the dark eyes of Harry.
"No! It has nothing to do with my mother whether I love you or not. I will deal with her." Harry turned down the proposal by Lola.
"So...do you love me, Harry?" asked she, seizing the chance, which was a question all women would enquire. But Harry kissed on Lola's lips instead of answering this easy question.
"You can guess." said Harry with complicated eyes, resting his forehead against Lola's.
... But Lola dared not say what she guessed!
As Harry went on the business trip that night, Lola slowed down deliberately to return to the villa very late.
She thought that Harry's mother would have fallen asleep. At that moment, Rose went out of her room and blocked Lola's way at Harry's room door.
Looking at the woman coldly, she said: "Who allows you to enter my son's room?" Rose looked rosy and shining in a white silk night-robe.
Lola did not answer the question from Rose, but said with smile: "Mother, I will buy another white nightgown for you tomorrow, because you look so rosy and a few years younger in this color!"
Rose felt happy with the compliment from Lola though, she still rolled her eyes. "You don't need to fawn on me. I have heard a lot of that compliment. It's useless!"
"I really mean it and do not play up to you on purpose. You are my husband's mother, so I respect you very much!" Lola could swear that she was telling the truth. But her mother-in-law was unwilling to believe her.
"I don't need your respect. Do not enter my son's room and get out!" Rose pointed at the stairs with her index finger. Lack of her son's protection, this woman would be driven away without resistance!
"Yes, Harry is your son, as well as my husband. Why can't I enter our room?" Lola lost the last bit of patience. Why was this mother-in-law so unreasonable? Why did she insist on treating her as a tramp?
Rose smiled and said bluntly: "So what? Do you really think yourself the owner of this villa? This belongs to our Si family. Get out of here!"
Seeing the attitude of Rose, Lola was disinclined to say more and left at once.
She drove her motorbike to check in a hotel. She wanted to have a regular hotel to crash for the night. But thinking that his mother would stay in D city for several days, she booked a deluxe suite for two nights.
Harry turned on his mobile phone once he got off the plane, and he received a message saying: "Dear VIP customer, hello! You have spent 1, 688 yuan in Telles Hotel at 21:46 tonight! Wish you a happy day!"
This was that black card he gave to Lola. It was already late. Did she spend this money in checking in a hotel?
He made a phone call to her. Lola was about to sleep after a bath. Seeing the call from Harry, she picked up the phone.
"Where are you?" Harry was really smart, knowing that she was not at home.
"A hotel." She did not intend to conceal that.
"You can stay there for a couple of days. Joey is in D city. Call him if you need help." Harry felt at ease after making sure that she was safe.
"Fine."
"Lola...," he called her in a soft voice, which was extremely sexy.
"Yes?" she grunted.
"I miss you."
...
He said he missed her...The woman couldn't help smiling. "Boss Si, I am not with you now. So don't flirt with me, or you may suffer from burning desire later. Don't blame me for that!" Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
"I don't have that desire without you." He was rather forward.
"...OK, come back early. I will wait for you!" Lola uttered the last few words very tenderly.
"Lola, wait and see!" After hanging up the phone, Harry smiled. It had only been a few hours, but this little woman was already making a move on him. She should be punished!
Lola felt much delighted because of the phone call from Harry. She fell asleep soundly after playing with her mobile phone for a while.
At over 5:00 a.m., a woman with messy hair ran out from a room on the floor of presidential suites, stumbling and wavering.
She ran into an exit passageway of the hotel and took out a mobile phone from her bag with trembling hands. She checked again and again, but found that she could only contact Lola.
The mobile phone rang suddenly while Lola was sleeping soundly. She fetched the phone in a daze and found that it was only 5:00 in the morning...
Why did Wendy call her so early? Lola answered the phone. "Wendy."
"Lola..." Wendy said in a low voice, as if she was constraining herself on purpose.
"I am sleepy. Wendy, what's wrong?" Lola could not even open her eyes.
"Lola, sorry to disturb you. I...I am in some troubles. Can I come over now?" Hiding in the exit passageway of the hotel, Wendy didn't know what to do.
"What's going on? What's the problem?" Lola sobered up suddenly and sat up on the bed. It was cool in the early morning, so she stretched out her arm to turn off the air conditioner.
Thinking of what had happened last night, Wendy bit her lower lip and didn't know how to put it.
"Tell me face to face! I am in Room 2033 of Telles Hotel." Lola turned off the bedside lamp and got out of bed. She put on her shoes and turned on the light of the room.
"Telles?" Wendy looked at the sign on the footstep in a trance: Welcome to Telles Hotel!
In three minutes, Wendy knocked at Lola's door. Lola was startled at such a speed. How could she be so quickly?
Upon seeing Wendy who was in a mess, Lola knew that something happened to her.
How distinct the marks on her neck were! Lola certainly knew what these marks stood for.
"Lola!" Wendy dashed into the arms of Lola and started to sob. Lola pulled her onto the sofa and asked her about what had happened.
Wendy described what had happened last night in details, choking with sobs.
She had been tutoring a 16-year-old child in English as her part-time job these years. Yesterday, he quarreled with his family members and ran out to check in a hotel alone.
