Chapter 228
Bud drives and Gideon sits in the passenger seat.
From time to time he peeked at Bowen in the rearview mirror.
In fact, he couldn’t understand why Bowen didn’t identify Sophie at the police station just now.
Knowing what he knew about his boss, he had no reason to cover Sophie.
After he peeked at Bowen again, he was finally discovered by Bowen.
Their eyes met, and Gideon panicked: “Where is Mr. Evert going? To the hospital?”

Gideon froze for a moment, and Bud took orders to turn the car around and head towards West Bay.

The three–bedroom apartment is already empty, and most of the things in the house have been removed, only the furniture and electrical appliances are still there.
Bowen walked in, sat down on the couch, leaned back and

closed his eyes.
He likes this sofa very much.
Jolene is a person who knows how to live.
The sofa is not particularly expensive, but very comfortable.
She always finds something that fits perfectly.
In the past, he often sat on this sofa for a while and fell asleep while sitting.
Sometimes I would pull Jolene to squeeze a sofa with him.
Jolene curled up in his arms, lying quietly with him.
Thinking about it now, during the three years between Jolene and him, he never asked her if she loved him.
Maybe it was because he was so self–confident that she thought she should love him.
Perhaps, he dared not ask.
Or maybe, in what capacity did he ask?
boss?
lover?
In short, it is not an aboveboard relationship.
It was getting dark, and Bowen didn’t turn on the light.
He was shrouded in endless darkness.
When I looked up, I found that when Jolene sold the house,

She likes the chandelier very much, and she bought it from a business trip with him in Nepal once.
Sitting on the floor in the living room in the middle of the night, wrapping all the crystals and pendants in foam wrap.
The project was huge, and he also accompanied her to pack it, which lasted half the night.
This house has never been so dark.
When Jolene is around, there is always a light.
The bright white light in the living room, the warm orange light in the room, and the colored glass lampshade in the kitchen, when it is on, it illuminates the dishes on the table colorfully.
Sometimes even if Jolene only cooked a piece of milk, she would exaggerately point with both hands:
“Dengdengdengdengdengdeng! Special Assistant Marsh brand white milk, colorful, very appetizing, isn’t it?”
Bowen opened his eyes and closed them again.
A feeling rushed towards him from all sides of the empty room, along the walls and scratching the floor.

Gideon was hungry, so he went to the convenience store across the street and bought two barrels of noodles to prepare. He and Bud each had a barrel, and sat here to finish eating.
After throwing away the empty noodle bucket, Gideon looked up upstairs, where the windows of Jolene’s house on that floor were still dark.
“Bud, is Mr. Evert hungry? Do you want to send him something to eat?”
“What do you think?” Bud asked him back.
Gideon sighed: “Tell me, Mr. Evert bought Special Assistant Marsh’s house and the jewelry that Special Assistant Marsh consigned in a pawnshop. He obviously likes Special Assistant Marsh very much, why
didn’t he tell her?”
Bud thought about it, thinking very seriously.
Gideon thought he wouldn’t answer, Bud drank all the instant noodle soup, smacked his lips and said, “Will you tell your instant noodles that you love it?”
“What’s the meaning?”
“I’m not saying that Special Assistant Marsh is instant noodles. What I mean is that Mr. Evert may always think that Special Assistant Marsh is his person, and he has always thought so!”
