One Meet By Chance

Chapter 447 Blackmail

But when Albert saw the blood on the sofa, he frowned slightly. He hated blood the most in the world, especially the smell of blood, which made him uncomfortable all over.

"Eva, please change a sofa cover."

"Okay, Mrs. Teresa."

Teresa helped Albert sit on another clean sofa. Albert's crutch shook left and right on the ground, and neither Brain nor Bruce followed Harris to the guest room.

"Mommy, Grandpa Albert, Bruce and I will go to the class now."

After saying goodbye to them, the two kids slipped away. Teresa frowned. 'What happened? Why did I feel that Brain was so guilty?'

"Dad?"

"Just now, on our way back, Harris said that Brain and Bruce were old enough to learn to drive. Then Brain said that he wanted to learn from the driver, Lewis. Harris thought his grandson was so smart, not to mention that Lewis was also beside him, so he asked Lewis to teach him. At the beginning, he behaved well. Harris and I were very happy. But on the way back, a girl came down from the hillside. At that time, it was Brain who was holding the steering wheel. That girl suddenly rushed out. Brain was in a panic and forgot to step on the brake. Fortunately, Lewis reacted quickly, or Brain would have caused a big trouble today."

After saying that, Albert fell into silence. Teresa frowned and rushed down from the hillside? She did remember that one of the highways back to Shen Family's villa was lined with mountains. Rushing down from those mountains? Although there were few cars on the road over there, it was also very dangerous.

"Abby, do you also think that girl's behavior is strange? Does she look like a blackmail that is often broadcast on TV recently?"

"Yes, a little, but it's too dangerous to rush down from the hillside. I think something must have happened to that girl before she rushed down the hillside."

Teresa said this because she thought that the injured girl's eyes were clear, not like those cunning people. She did not quite believe that the girl was trying to blackmail them.

"Everyone knows that those who can pass that road are all rich people leading to the villa area. Now people can do anything for money."

"Dad, you are too objective. Money is important, but losing your life means losing everything. It won't happen."

"I hope so. Even if it's a blackmail, the Shen Family doesn't lack money. After all, she looks like a good girl, isn't she?"

Teresa turned to look at Albert. Why did she always feel that her dad's words today were full of deep meaning? Albert didn't say anything more. To be honest, he wanted to go back home, but under such a situation, he still needed to stay for a few more days before leaving.

At this time, Gavin came out of the guest room. Albert waved at him. Gavin knew that he had something to ask. Gavin didn't intend to hide anything and sat directly next to Teresa and Albert.

"Uncle Gavin, is she okay?"

"Nothing serious. The family doctor of the Shen Family had already given her a plaster cast. She could walk on the ground in half a month later. But that girl..."

Both Gavin and Albert frowned. Teresa thought in her heart, 'What happened?' Today she found them both strange. Most importantly, why was father still in the guest room? Even if they bumped into someone, they only need to be responsible for her residence and healing fee when she was injured.

"Dad, Uncle Gavin, you..."

"Abby, nothing. Your Uncle Gavin and I are tired. You don't have to ask us to have lunch at noon."

As if trying to avoid something, Albert stood up and went back to his room with Gavin. Teresa blinked her eyes and thought, 'Fine. After all, it's all because of my son.' Then Teresa stood up and walked towards the guest room.

The door of the guest room was not closed. Before Teresa entered the room, she heard Harris laughing. The beautiful little girl in plaster was unable to move, but she was talking to Harris with a bright smile. Teresa had never seen such an expression on Harris's face before.

She didn't want to disturb them, so she quietly walked out of the room. It was Eva who sent the lunch to Harris into the guest room. At noon, Brain didn't even dare to look up at Teresa, and left in a hurry after lunch. As usual, Bruce chatted with Teresa for a while after lunch, and finally said that it was not Brain's fault. He hoped that Teresa wouldn't blame him and wouldn't be angry with him.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, several women in professional clothes came to the Shen Family with cases in their hands. They seemed to be the same people who had suddenly left the Shen Family this morning when they found something happened to the Shen Family.

"Hello, Mrs. Teresa. Mr. Enrique sent us to customize an evening dress for you."

"Okay, come with me."Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

It was not until then that Teresa remembered that she would go to a party with Enrique a few days later, and there was Christopher at that party. The whole afternoon, Teresa was choosing the dress style and color, and even discussing the hair style. At last, she chose a beige cheongsam with retro pattern. When she put that beige cheongsam, she was really satisfied with the dress. A touch of amazement flashed through the eyes of several women in business suits beside her, but soon disappeared.

It's almost four o 'clock in the afternoon, and Teresa finally got everything done for her evening dress. Suddenly she could understand why almost all men were reluctant to go shopping with women for clothes. Because women had no resistance to shopping or beautiful things and they needed to spend a lot of time shopping. Just like Teresa this time, she didn't go to the mall this time, but she spent a whole afternoon deciding what she wanted.

At dinner, Albert and the others were all sitting in the dining room. Enrique called back and said that there would be a banquet tonight and he would not go back for dinner. It was rare that Enrique didn't come back for dinner. Generally, Enrique wouldn't go to such a banquet. Teresa didn't think too much. She still didn't see Harris at the table.

Dinner was sent for two by Eva to the guest room. Teresa frowned. Even if it was their responsibility, there was no need for father to stay in that young lady's room the whole afternoon. Albert and Gavin looked at each other. They sighed.

"Dad, Uncle Gavin, do you two know something? Father has never been like this."

Teresa frowned. Although there was some disrespect for Harris if she thought in this way, the thoughts were something she couldn't control. Some she chose to say it out, and some she chose to keep it in her hearts.

"Abby, don't ask anymore. I guess Harris thinks that girl is very pitiful."

Teresa looked at Albert and at Gavin. Now that they didn't want to talk about it, she just let it go and didn't ask more.
