Chapter 29: Harvey’s Bad Evening
Because Samson didn’t want Lucasta to know about this phone call, he went into his room, closed the door, and called Harvey.
After two rings, the vampire with platinum hair picked up the phone.
– I’m listening, Samson. – Harvey said as he pushed open the door and stepped out onto the balcony.
– Lucasta came home with four blisters on her foot. – Samson’s voice dropped.
– Why so?
– Lucasta gave the wrong document to Jemaine and then she chased him. But what made me angry was that he threatened to fire her and even abandoned her when he knew she had run out of money to get a taxi.
– Ok. I will handle this. Be assured. There won’t be a second time.
Although Samson did not raise his voice, Harvey understood his friend’s mood at this moment.
Jemaine is a stingy guy who doesn’t even dare to spend money to hire a maid and driver, how can he give money to a stranger like Lucasta?
He felt a little annoyed that the blonde girl hadn’t told him anything.
If Lucasta hadn’t depended on him, surely Samson wouldn’t have been able to let go of her hand.
He put down the phone and looked around the city.
In the distance, behind the high-rise buildings, the headlights from the amusement park cast large white streaks of light up into the sky, forming circular lights that danced against the dark sky.
– White color, blouse.
He whispered to himself and went back in, put on his long coat, took his car keys, and went down to the basement.
On the way, he saw a hawker selling hotdogs on the side of the road, so he pulled over to buy one and continued driving straight to Aurora’s house.
When Harvey arrived and saw the padlock outside the gate, he knew Aurora was not at home.
Because the car was still parked in the yard, he guessed she was just shopping nearby. However, he guessed wrong because more than an hour had passed, but he still had not seen her.
– Is she going out on a date again? What number is that man? He put his hand to his mouth and bit down lightly to ease his impatience.
Just as Harvey lost his patience and was about to leave, a light from a car’s headlights flashed.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Through the windshield of the car opposite, he saw Aurora sitting next to a man. The man looked very young, his face was quite handsome and his body was not inferior to a model.
Harvey guessed she was probably drunk because her head was spinning and her hair covered half of her face.
The man called Aurora’s name for a long time, but he got no answer from her, so he reached into her bag and rummaged through, and took out a set of keys.
Harvey sat still in the car and watched the man struggling to help her near the gate.
It wasn’t until he let her sit down and crouched down to insert the key into the lock that Harvey got out of the car and approached them.
– Give me the keys.
The sudden voice made the man jump. However, he quickly regained his composure, straightened his back, and pulled back the collar of his vest.
He smirked when he saw Harvey’s strange platinum hair and assumed that this guy was a rich guy with an extravagant life.
– Who are you to ask me to give you the key? This is the house of my girlfriend. He pointed at Aurora and said.
– Aurora’s house keys are twenty keys in total. You’ve tried five times and it still won’t open. You’re her backup boyfriend, right?
While the man was still dumbfounded by Harvey’s contemptuous words, the vampire quickly took the keys from his hand and opened the gate.
There was no doubt about Harvey’s relationship with the owner of the house, so he angrily turned away.
Harvey had known Aurora for a long time, but he had never seen her so drunk that she lost consciousness, so he was quite surprised.
He carefully helped her up and helped her inside, but because her whole body was soft like noodles, he had to pick her up.
He has lived on earth for several thousand years, so he has experience in handling many situations, including drunkenness.
After he finished squeezing tomato juice for her to drink, he helped her take off her thick coat and carried her up to her room.
– You are alone, but you are not wary of strangers. Could it be that you and I have telepathy?
Although Harvey complained, he still kindly propped her pillow and covered her with a blanket.
Just as he was about to turn his back to leave, a soft voice spoke up. The voice was very low, but he could hear it was his name.
He has heard people say that when a person calls someone’s name while they are fast asleep; it shows that they love and care for that person very much.
He thought for a long time and could not bear to leave her alone because he was afraid that if something happened to her, Samson and Maris would be miserable. She still had to get married and have children to continue to help the poor vampire.
After the gate and doors were securely locked by him, he walked over to the sofa, lay down, and closed his eyes.
Occasionally, he would go upstairs and open the door of her room to check on the situation inside.
The same thing happened again and again until morning.
– Harvey, Harvey.
Harvey awoke when he heard Aurora calling his name. He quickly tossed the pillow on his stomach to the side and sat up.
He thought he would go up to her room to see her a few more times, but he didn’t expect that he had fallen asleep.
– Why are you at my house? Did you go through the wall to get here? – She crossed her arms, looked at him, and asked.
– Vampires cannot go through walls. – Harvey replied nonchalantly.
Aurora’s wide eyes and slightly furrowed brows proved to him that she had no recollection of his appearance last night.
Because Harvey was afraid Aurora would misunderstand that he had bad intentions, he hastily explained that he just wanted to come here to talk to her about Samson and Lucasta. But because he saw her appearing with a man in a drunken state, he brought her into the house.
– I was going to go home, but I was worried that something would happen to you, so I stayed. – Harvey said as he stood up, straightening his clothes.
– You don’t need to worry about me. When you’re not by my side, I’m fine. – She calmly sat down and replied.
– Right. It’s because I have free time. I worry excessively.
After he finished speaking, he hurried to the door, ignoring her call.
He came to her house to talk to her to relieve his frustration, but in the end, he got even more frustrated. He treated her well; she didn’t thank him, and she even mocked him.
Harvey got in the car and started it as soon as he was out the gate. When he saw the hotdog, he became even more upset; it seemed like it was stale.
Because his eyes were glued to it, Aurora could see it, too. She knew he’d never eat human food unless he couldn’t refuse, so there was no way he’d buy that hotdog for himself.
She watched helplessly after the car until the numbers on the license plate faded.
This was the first time she’d seen Harvey acting like a child sulking at his mother, he hadn’t been like that before.
If she assumed it was because he was jealous when he saw her with another man, it was not true. She didn’t know what he was upset about.
Yesterday she only drank a glass of wine and was so drunk that she didn’t know or remember anything.
From what Harvey said, maybe the man she just met had bad intentions toward her.
She originally didn’t think he was a bad person because the person who introduced her and he got acquainted was the director, William.
Because this man was introduced to Aurora by William, she could hardly refuse. She had to accept the date and planned to use the reason of a different personality to refuse him. However, she didn’t expect him to be so bad as to drug her.
After Aurora showered and changed her clothes, she drove straight to the Institute of Medical Sciences.
She wanted to meet the lousy man face-to-face and slap him in the face.
Every time she thought about the hotdog Harvey bought her, she went crazy.
– Good morning Aurora, did you have a good date? That guy is perfect, isn’t he? – William spoke up as soon as he saw her.
– Jack put anesthetic in my wine. I did not expect your ability to look at people to be so bad.
Anger caused Aurora to lose respect for William.
She is a straightforward person and does not flatter anyone, and this is not only William, but everyone who works here knows her very well.
Aurora has real ability and even though she does not work at the Institute of Medical Sciences in the country, she still has many opportunities to work abroad.
During the Hematology – Blood Transfusion Conference, the Directors of the Institute of Medical Sciences of other countries also invited her to their countries.
– Oh my god, did Jack do that to you? No, I’ll make him come here and apologize to you.
William quickly took out his phone. However, before he could do anything, the phone rang.
After he motioned for her to wait a moment, he stepped back and then picked up the phone.
Aurora watched his expression intently during the call that lasted only about twenty seconds.
According to William’s recommendation, Jack is the son of an old classmate of his. Jack was originally a dentist and this time, he returned to his hometown to open a dental clinic and then get married and have children, according to his mother’s wishes.
– What’s the matter, Mr. William? Your face looks bad. Aurora was worried because William’s rosy face turned pale.
– Jack’s already dead. – William said while wiping his tears.
– What did you just say? Did he die? Why? She asked a lot because she couldn’t believe her ears.
– He had a traffic accident this morning. I have to go to that hospital now. He doesn’t have any relatives left.
William got in the car and left for a long time, but Aurora still thought this was just a dream.
How can there be such incredible coincidences in this world?
She’s indeed angry, but she hasn’t cursed Jack yet. It was as if some invisible force was venting anger on her behalf. She felt a chill run down her spine as she thought about this.
If Harvey hadn’t appeared last night, she and that man had slept together and now they still hadn’t gotten out of bed, death wouldn’t have had a chance to take him away.
– Damn, Aurora, how could you think like that?
She scolded herself and hurriedly ran to the laboratory.
A person who had just had dinner with her last night but now he lost his life made her feel extremely insecure for herself.
Fortunately, Samson and Harvey are both immortal and have superhuman abilities, so the probability of them having a traffic accident is very low, almost zero.
