Chapter 2 meeting an old friend in a foreign land.
"Hooligan."
Sally Frank came up with the perfect word to describe Gabriel Hardy: gentle scum.
Gabriel Hardy just smiled and didn't reply. He thought it was fun that they often quarreled like this.
He likes and needs this kind of spice.
Have you heard? The flight to San Francisco tonight was chartered by Abdiel Barr specifically for his wife.
“Abdiel Barr? The youngest entrepreneur in San Francisco?
As soon as she entered the bathroom, Sally Frank heard two stewardesses whispering.
The three words Abdiel Barr were like a thunderclap in her head.
"Well, his wife was pregnant, and she was afraid that the ordinary captain's driving skills were not good enough to hurt the child when he encountered turbulence, so she simply contracted the most powerful captain in our company."
"What do you mean, the captain? Don't talk nonsense. Give it to Mr.". Hardy, you'll feel better when you hear that.
"What are you afraid of? This is the ladies' room." The gossipy stewardess sighed, "Hey, it's good to be rich. When can I marry such a heroic husband?"
It doesn't matter whether it's money or not. I like Mr. Like Hardy, cool and handsome!
……
At that moment, the mobile phone suddenly vibrated. It was Adriana Ball, the mother.
Sally Frank picked it up, and the other side snapped, "Did Gabriel Hardy give you this month's money?"? Leo has to go to the hospital again tomorrow. Why did you have to keep this child in the first place? Your brain is not good, and you are sick. If you were not lucky enough to meet Gabriel Hardy, we would both starve to death on the overpass with this "bottomless pit". The way I see it, you might as well give the fool back to Abdiel Barr! Life or death has nothing to do with us. You can be Gabriel Hardy's wife with peace of mind, and I can enjoy a few years of happiness.
Adriana Ball's voice was too shrill to be heard by outsiders. Sally Frank turned the volume down to the lowest level and lowered her voice. "What are you talking about? That's your own grandson!"
How can you say that your grandson is a "bottomless pit" and a "fool"!
'What's The matter? Is what I said wrong? Have you forgotten what Abdiel Barr did to you and the kids? If he doesn't, you'll be induced alive? Leo can stay in the incubator for six months? Isn't it because of him that we have suffered so much? You sold yourself out to help him raise his son. Have you been kicked in the head by a donkey? I think Leo's mental retardation is up to you!
"All right, don't say it!" She quickly interrupted Adriana Ball, saying that she had to work overtime in the evening and hung up the phone when she went back tomorrow morning!
There was no gossip outside, and the whole bathroom was so quiet that she could hear her panting clearly.
She shut herself in the toilet for half an hour, and she sat on the toilet in a quiet daze.
Some fragmentary pictures popped up in my mind, and there was a cold and unfeeling face.
He said, "Sally Frank, that night six months ago, I didn't sleep with you. It was a shareholder of the company.". Speaking of it, I have to thank you. If you hadn't served others well, our company would not have gone public smoothly.
For four years, she thought she had completely forgotten, but it was just a little news about that person, and the memory she had blocked for so long collapsed.
Like an invisible hand, the death of her neck, so that she can not breathe!
……
8:15 p.m., passenger boarding time.
Sally Frank, with a delicate smile, stood gracefully at the door of the cabin waiting for the arrival of the distinguished guests.
She imagined several possible sparks from the collision of Abdiel Barr and Briella Conner when they boarded the plane, but did not expect that they would hug each other into the first-class cabin and walk past her without even looking at her.
She even called out sweetly, "Welcome to the Summer Airline". ".
After the two men took their seats, Briella Conner took the lead in poking her head out and looking suspiciously in the direction she had come.
"What's the matter?" Abdiel Barr asked softly, stroking her hair tenderly.
"The stewardess, it seems, is Sally Frank." After pregnancy, her eyesight became worse and worse, the distance was a little far, and Briella Conner could not be sure.
Abdiel Barr was stunned and then said, "How is that possible? She's been dead for four years."
Sally Frank suffered from massive hemorrhage during induced labor, and the barefoot doctor failed to rescue her after she was sent to the hospital.
It became the only recurring nightmare in Abdiel Barr's life.
"Maybe I'm seeing things." Briella Conner withdrew her gaze, stroking her stomach with one hand and holding Abdiel Barr's arm with the other, laughing and changing the subject.
"Husband, who do you think our baby looks like more?"
Sally Frank closed the cabin door and drew the curtain, but it didn't shut out the harsh conversation.
She had such a sweet smile, and she had asked such a warm question, but the response and the final result were quite different.
She leaned against the hatch with a chill in her back.
Gabriel Hardy looked up at his wristwatch. Although it was a charter flight and the passengers were already in place, they had to wait until the departure time to get on the runway.
He glanced at the monitor, did not see the figure of the little woman, then took out his mobile phone to send her a text message, "It feels good to meet an old friend in a foreign land."
The sound of the phone vibrating brought Sally Frank's thoughts back from the brink, and her heart missed a beat when she saw the content of the message.
It turned out that he knew.
He knew that the passenger was Abdiel Barr and that Abdiel Barr had a relationship with her, so he asked her to fly by name.
Why?
It's not that he doesn't care about her past?
Sally Frank sniffed and typed quickly with her long fingers. "I didn't expect Mr., who is used to being cold.". Hardy gets jealous sometimes.
Gabriel Hardy's eyes narrowed slightly and his fingers tapped the screen of his mobile phone twice, thoughtfully.
Another text message from Sally Frank, "Don't forget that when you get married, you agreed not to ask each other about the past, nor to interfere in each other's life outside the'home '."
She was reminding him that they were only married by contract?
Gabriel Hardy snorted coldly. What did she think she was? When was it her turn to remind herself?!
"I'm not interested in anything other than your body."
For him, she was just a bed companion.
First, now, and then.
The more Briella Conner thought about it, the more she thought it was wrong. There are people in the world who look alike, and there are people who sound exactly the same.
She raised her hand and rang the service bell.
