chapter 27 want money

As old neighbors, the relationship between Simon and William was quite harmonious. Simon was so tacitly understanding that he didn't mention the tip last time. He didn't ask about the bruises on William's face. Who had it easy these days? After taking a shower, William waited in the lounge of the bathing center until Simon got off work, then took him out to eat barbecue and drink. Emma called, and William said that he had met a friend and would not go back to eat at night. He didn't want to face Emma's hypocritical face. Being indifferent to his own injuries, but extremely concerned about Jayden's injury. "What the hell, you haven't divorced me yet. Can't you wait to fulfill the duties of a wife to your lover? Bitch!" Simon's life was unsatisfactory. William was also depressed. Two people ordered two beers. No need for a cup, just blow directly into the bottle. Simon said a few words about his unsatisfactory career. William just talked about his experiences in prison. There was a call from Emma in the middle, and William immediately hung up the call in a domineering manner. Simon was very surprised and expressed his admiration. William waved his hand and just said drink and drink. The wine entered the sad heart and turned into tears of lovesickness. William didn't shed any tears, but he would get drunk easily if he drank too much. Soon, both of them were a little tipsy and started to get hard to talk. "Hey, when will the days of giving people a bath come to an end!" Simon sighed. William expressed deep sympathy. In the Internet age, takeaway men and courier men were the most common industries where you could make money as long as you were willing to endure hardships. It's not that Simon hadn't thought about it. However, the elderly at home must be taken care of on time, and express delivery and takeout were not guaranteed. Therefore, he had to give people a bath for the time being. At the very least, the commuting time was fairly fixed. After eating, the two of them strolled back together. "William, someone is following us!" While swaying, Simon suddenly put his arms around William's shoulders, "Don't look back! They are following us." William was so excited that he suddenly woke up from the alcohol. He resisted the desire to look back and whispered, "At the fork in the road ahead, let's go into the alley and turn around to find the bathing center. Be quick!" After taking two steps forward, William staggered to the side of a car on the side of the road. Squatted down and pretended to fix his hair in the rearview mirror and made a glance out of the corner of his eye. Sure enough, there were four or five men behind him, neither far nor near. No need to ask. Jayden must be looking for someone to teach him a lesson. William's heart beat wildly. When he was released from prison, the only person he offended was Jayden. "Jayden, ​​you are so shady!" William thought. After drinking alcohol, his reaction slowed down significantly. Beat? It definitely can't beat it. Run! After finishing arranging his hair, William deliberately said a few words loudly, staggered on his feet, and pretended almost to fall. Fortunately, Simon supported him. After turning into the alley, William growled, "Run!" The two of them ran wildly. There were rapid footsteps behind him. It was obvious that the other party was chasing after him. William felt that his legs were weak. In prison, he was engaged in manual labor every day and also participated in so-called prisoner fitness with his fellow inmates. He thought his body was strong enough. Unexpectedly, it still didn't work when something happened. The key was that the psychology was not strong enough. Afraid of trouble! Anyway, the two of them rushed into the back door of the bathing center. Simon took William to the window of the dressing room on the first floor and peeked out. Four or five men chased him out of the alley and looked around for a while, but found nothing. The leading long-haired man took out his mobile phone and made a call before leading the group away. William waited for a while and wanted to go out, but was held back by Simon. "William, stop! Look again!" Sure enough, a minute later, the same group of people appeared at the entrance of the alley again. William cursed in his heart, "What a fucking thief." If it weren't for Simon, he probably would have been blocked. The wave of people left for the second time. This time, William waited for half an hour but did not see them again. That's when he felt relieved. "William, have you offended someone?" Simon asked a little depressed. "I didn't expect it to happen so quickly!" William cursed and suddenly realized, "Will it implicate you?" "It's no big deal. I have no grudge against them. There's no need to target me!" Simon said. Patting Simon on the shoulder, William said, "I will go to work tomorrow. If there is a chance, I will take you, so you don't have to give people a bath." Walking out of the back door of the bathing center, William was still vigilant. He walked and looked back all the way. Finally, after entering his own community, he breathed a sigh of relief. Jayden was beaten in the morning, and someone was watching him in the afternoon. The opponent moved quickly and had a strong desire for revenge. He had to be careful. William was rummaging through boxes and cabinets at home. Finally, he found a short, thick electric baton. He made a couple of gestures on his waist, it was suitable to carry around. "This is quite old." William weighed it with a sad expression. When he was passionately in love with Emma, there was another man pursuing Emma passionately. The other party has a somewhat mixed social background. Normally, when he had nothing to do, he just hung out with his friends and rode his motorcycle to idle. Little girls would admire them very much because they were so handsome and cool. But Emma was already very mature at the time and naturally wouldn't like this kind of speedster gang. But the other party refused to give up and would pester Emma at every turn and, at the same time, threaten him. Threatening William to give up. As a last resort, William bought an electric baton from the gray market and carried it with him to prevent him from being blocked by that guy. As a result, within two months, the guy hit a wall while speeding and became a paraplegic. This electric baton became a historical relic and was kept at home by William. He didn't throw it away after he got married. Unexpectedly, he could use it again today. William was filled with emotions. Years ago, the duty of the electric baton was to help him defend his love and protect himself and Emma. Now, the duty of the electric baton was to protect himself. Emma no longer needed his protection. "Emma, I hope you won't regret it in the future!" William gripped the electric baton tightly and gritted his teeth. Emma returned home at nine o'clock in the evening, looking exhausted. But there was an indescribable charm in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows. William was so angry. Needn't to ask, it must be Emma who went to comfort Jayden. Fucking men and women. Throwing the bag away, Emma sat on the sofa, "William, we have to talk." "What to talk about?" "You will go to work starting tomorrow, and I am also busy at work. What about Emily's usual pick-up and drop-off?" Emma crossed her legs. In summer, Emma's two slender white thighs overlapped each other. The posture was beautiful. William felt sour in his heart. This beautiful body was originally his only. Now, it belonged to another man. Suddenly, William saw a small mark where Emma's thighs overlapped. It was like a needle piercing William's heart. Where did that kind of trace come from? He knew it all too well. One hundred percent, it was Jayden who left it on her. William's body trembled slightly. Jayden's face seemed to appear before his eyes again. William would never forget his contemptuous look. "Say it!" William turned away and stared at the ground. Emma didn't notice William's strangeness and said calmly, "We all work, so I can only rely on my mother to pick up and drop off. And we all have to work overtime. Emily must often spend the night at her grandma's house." "I think giving my mother some money every month can be considered as a reward for her hard work in taking care of Emily!" Emma said, "Anyway, you gave it to me before you went to prison!" Money again! There was nothing else to do but ask for money. What did I get in exchange for the money I gave you before? William didn't want to say it. When she mentioned his unreliable mother-in-law, he became angry. Olivia was simply a greedy person. It would be fine if Emily could get good care from her, but the problem was that she didn't. "I don't agree." William didn't intend to hide it, and said straightforwardly, "I had a fight with her last time, and you know why, I didn't believe her!"
