After Elaine fell asleep, Darnell tucked her in, grabbed his phone from the side, and walked to the balcony outside
the living room.
He lit a cigarette, bit it between his lips, and dialed back the missed call from half an hour ago.
"Master of Riverside, Jon has caught on, but he hasn't said anything."
Darnell hmmed lightly and exhaled a puff of smoke: "Any movement from the Barret family."
"Not yet, but I've put the word out that Jon is in our hands, and the ones we suspected before, we've sent people to
keep an eye on them, so once they react, we can do it immediately."
Darnell answered, hung up, dialed another number and ordered, "Get all the information on Bob Thomas
completely organized and bring it to me tomorrow morning."
There was a slight pause on the other end of the phone and immediately said, "Yes."
The name Bob Thomas is both familiar and unfamiliar.
The familiarity is that he was once the unanimous target of them all.
What is strange is that this person, who has been dead for more than ten years.
When Darnell returned to the bedroom, Elaine was already asleep with her head buried under the covers, curled up
in a ball.
He walked over and gently moved her head out.
Elaine's face was a little red from holding it in, and her eyebrows were slightly furrowed together, probably because
she hadn't slept very well.
Darnell lifted the covers, lay down next to her, kissed her brow, and took the person in his arms.
He knew that she hadn't been happy for the past two years.
It's just that things are not completely resolved yet, so it's safest for her to stay in Switzerland at that time.
......
In the morning, Elaine and Darnell sat in the hotel restaurant, she took a bite of the snack in front of her and
whispered to him, "These aren't as good as the ones I made, I'll make them for you when I get back."
Darnell laughed wordlessly, "Good."

Elaine was halfway through her meal when her phone vibrated. She looked at the screen and it was Aaron calling.
Aaron said, "Are you up yet."
Elaine took the milk Darnell handed her and sipped it, "Up and about."
"Then go downstairs and I'll meet you in the lobby."
"What's up."
"You hurry down, there is something for you, don't dilly-dally, I'm still wounded here."
Before Elaine could say anything else, Aaron hung up.
She skimmed as she held her phone, put down the milk and got up to Darnell, "My friend is here to see me, you eat
first, I'm going down and will be up soon."
Darnell said, "Go ahead."
Elaine turned and trotted away.
She arrived at the lobby and after looking around, she found Aaron sitting in the couch playing a game.
Elaine walked over and sat across from her, gasping slightly, "What do you have for me this early in the morning?"
Aaron didn't look up: "Don't rush, wait for me to finish this game."
Elaine: "......"
She could only sit there, bored and playing with her phone.
After a few minutes, Aaron finally finished playing the game and picked up the bag next to her and gave it to her.
Elaine wondered, "What is this?"
Aaron said, "Apology gift."
Elaine: "?"
Aaron said, "I admit that I have not been nice enough to you for the past two days, and you were tied up by them
because of my involvement, so I can't get over it no matter how I think about it."
Elaine smiled and put the paper bag aside: "It's okay, aren't we friends? Even if they didn't kidnap me in that
situation, there's no way I would have left you on your own. What's more, I don't think there's anything wrong with
your attitude, if it was me who encountered this kind of thing, I wouldn't be in a good mood either."
Aaron stared at her slyly: "I think you've been in a pretty good mood the last two days."
Elaine tilted her head, noncommittal.
He changed his position and asked, "Are you going home?"
"Back today."
Aaron said, "Then you must not buy me a meal before you leave."
With that, his gaze lingered behind her and continued, word for word, "Bring your boyfriend with you."
Elaine didn't notice anything, just analyzed, "Now at City H, it seems like it's your turn to buy me dinner."
Aaron indifferent said: "Whoever invites whoever, anyway, I will go to you later, you can not rely on me for this
meal."
Elaine's face lifted into a smile and her mouth opened without making a sound.
She was a little hesitant to tell Aaron that her home was actually in Riverside City.
Aaron got up: "Then I'll go first, send you the dinner address later, see you tonight."
He slowly withdrew his gaze and turned to leave without looking back.
Elaine stood up and was just about to go upstairs when she noticed Darnell standing not far away.
She trotted over, "Why are you down here?"
Darnell's eyes lingered on the direction Aaron had left: "Are you still eating breakfast."
Elaine shook her head, "No more food."
She followed Darnell's line of sight while saying, "That's the friend I met in Switzerland, Aaron."
Saying that, she tentatively spoke again, "He said it's okay if we have dinner together tonight."
Darnell looked at her, "Do you want to go."

Elaine nodded gently, "I've been telling him I'm from City N before, and he said he'd come to hang out with me
afterwards, so I thought I'd better tell him the truth."
Darnell said, "Then go."
Elaine hugged his arm happily, "Then let's go upstairs and change."
Anyway, they had to spend another day at City H, so they could go shopping.
While arriving upstairs to change, Elaine messaged Aaron.
Elaine: [You said before, what are the fun places in City H, send it to me].
After a few minutes, Aaron returned her smile.
Elaine replied to spinning thanks.
She changed and picked up her phone again, and Aaron had already dumped her a few links to online tips.
Elaine took a look at it and found that there were only a few spots that were generally mentioned.
She saved it and went out of the room to see Darnell standing there on the phone.
Elaine took out her mirror and looked at it, and added another lipstick.
Soon after, Darnell called over, "Ready?"
Elaine nodded: "I've done the rundown, let's go!"
In fact, the strategy was done in a hurry, and only less than a day, Elaine chose two or three places that the
Internet said couples must visit.
Since it was a weekday and morning, these hot places were not too crowded.
Elaine shoved her phone at Darnell and said, "You take a better picture for me."
After saying that, he ran under the building and happily gave a yay than.
Darnell took a few shots of her, and Elaine ran over to look at them, flipping them over and reluctantly saying, "It's
okay to fix them."
She hadn't had much hope for him either.
As Elaine ran to the next place, the assistant who was following behind her came up: "Master of Riverside, why
don't you stand with Miss James and I'll shoot for you?"
