Elaine put the kitchen bottles and jars together in the basin, and when she picked them up and took them out, the
bottom of the basin suddenly cracked, and the contents fell to the floor instantly, scattering all over the place.
The good thing is that the conditioning inside are already empty, and also just some broken glass.
Without much pause, Elaine immediately turned around and brought the trash can, ready to pick up all the broken
glass jars.
However, just as she reached out her hand, her wrist was gripped.
Elaine turned her head and her eyes widened slightly, "How do you ......"
Darnell said, "Go get the tools and don't hold them by hand."
Elaine said, "I searched, and there was none."
She held up the towel in her hand, "I'll use this to pad it, it won't hurt."
Darnell looked at her quietly and didn't say anything.
Elaine tilted her head gently, "What's wrong?"
Darnell withdrew his gaze and took the towel from her hand, "Go sit next to her."
"I ......"
"Go get a bottle of water from the side."
At that, Elaine answered and rushed off to the convenience store next door.
By the time she returned, Darnell had thrown all the glass crumbs into the trash.
Elaine handed the water over and was about to carry the trash out to throw it away when Darnell yanked her back
in, twisting the cap while saying, "Hold your hand out."
Elaine dutifully put her hands out and washed them with the water from the bottle.
When she finished, she found a tissue from her bag and wiped her hands: "Why did you come over so soon?"
Darnell said, "On an errand nearby."

open a dessert store, do you think it's okay."
"Yes, you make a great dessert."
The smile on Elaine's face widened: "I'm paying a year's rent, so I just hope to make my costs back."
Darnell gently rubbed her head: "When are you planning to open."
Elaine looked around: "There's still renovations to be done, and it feels like they'll all take at least a month or two."
"Have you thought about how to decorate."
Elaine nodded: "I want to decorate a little warm and comfortable, here every afternoon after school hours a lot of
students pass by, I hope that everyone who has eaten my dessert, can feel happy and happy."
Darnell raised his eyebrows slightly: "It won't take a month or two."
"But the place hasn't even started packing yet, and the movers' talent tomorrow ......"
"There's not a lot of stuff, so we can pack it up tonight."
After he finished, he took off his suit jacket and threw it on the back of the chair, unbuttoned the cuffs and pulled up
his shirt, revealing the small arms with smooth muscle lines.
After realizing what he wanted to do, Elaine hastily took his hand: "No, I'll call the movers to come tomorrow is the
same."
Darnell looked at her with downcast eyes, "You get the movers for money, I'll do it for free."
Elaine: "......"
And I don't know why, she blushed slightly, but still insisted: "That also ...... doesn't work."
"Why."
Elaine's eyes fell on his white shirt that was already rubbed with dust in one place and whispered, "Just think, you
shouldn't do these things."
Darnell lowered his voice: "Elaine, you didn't have to do any of this in the first place either."
She should be the young lady of the James family, carefree, not having to worry about anything, enjoying the best
things in the world.
Instead of being skilled and knowing that you should use a towel to pad the glass so you don't scratch your hand.
Elaine took his hand and tilted her head to meet his gaze: "But only now do I feel that my existence is meaningful. I
know what I want, and I know what a joy it is to work for something I love."
"I know." Darnell pulled her into his arms, kissed her brow, and spoke in a low voice, "Elaine, I want to do something
for you, too."
Elaine's eyes burned as she listened, her head resting on his chest, "You've already done so much for me."
This relationship between them, although it seems to have been her in the initiative, but most of the time, she is
capricious impulse greater than everything, if he did not take care of those things for her, there is no now her.
Darnell placed his palm gently on the back of her head and spoke only after a long time: "I'm sorry."
She was sent to Switzerland two years ago so that she could get away from the strife of the James family and live a
good life there.
But it seems that it forced her to grow up.
Elaine got out of his arms, her eyes curved, "I changed my mind, since you don't seem to be busy, let's pack the
place up tonight and start decorating tomorrow."
Darnell's lips curled down, "Good."
This store is not large, is some tables and chairs and benches to bother, but this time with Darnell, almost easy to
solve.
Not far away, Assistant Darnell stood beside the car, watching the scene, slowly raising his hand to close his jaw
which almost fell off in shock.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWho would have thought that the patriarch of the James family, who is feared and only heard of, but not seen,
would be in such a dusty little store, handling tables, chairs and benches ......
It was until 9:00 p.m. that the store was almost emptied.
Elaine patted the dust on her hands: "Well, tomorrow we can start contacting decorators."
Darnell looked at the time: "Come on, let's go back to dinner."
Elaine had been busy all night, but she didn't really feel anything before, but now that he mentioned it, she felt her
stomach rumbling.
She took the key and locked the door, then put it in her bag and patted it.
This will be her sweet store from now on.
On the way back, Elaine was happy the whole time and even hummed a song.
It seemed like an exhausting day, but many, many things were done.
Thinking about this, she suddenly a beat, turned her head to look at Darnell: "By the way, I just remembered, I was
at my father's grave, saw Uncle Michael, I think he is a little strange ......"
Darnell held her hand, his eyes falling on the small wound on it, "Where's the weirdness."
Elaine adjusted her sitting position: "It's ...... he reminded me that you and my dad didn't get along too well before,
and told me to avoid you if I could if I met you, which sounded like it was out of the goodness of my heart."
Darnell: "......"
He slowly raised his eyes and met Elaine's gaze, "Kindly?"
Elaine positive color, emphasis: "Sounds like good intentions, but the more I think about it, the more I feel strange,
he could not not know my relationship with you, even if know not so clear, but also should be vaguely a little feeling,
but that kind of reminder, I always feel ...... not quite right. "
Darnell said, "You will start decorating the dessert store tomorrow, have you contacted the decorator, have you
thought of the name of the store, have you thought of the budget?"
