Chapter 200: Coincidence. Coincidence.

“If you don't feel like building blocks, I can recommend this newest Pooh bear for you, which is pretty cute and big enough for a 2 year old.” Female salesmen who looked quite a bit like them said with enthusiasm.

“So that's it.” Adrian looked around and eventually decided to have this Pooh bear doll. There is certainly nothing more suitable than this. Although the girl is over the age of eating toys, her energy is obviously a little excessive. As long as she leaves him or Kate's arms, she starts running wild all over the villa, such as grabbing toys and throwing them everywhere. She doesn't have to do much to laugh after throwing them away. She threw away two sets of Lego building blocks, so this soft, non-bad doll toy is currently the best fit for her.

There was a lot of work to do in the past few days and a few women to go around, so the promise to take her to the amusement park was temporarily postponed. Guy got angry about it, threatened to nibble on the phone. Well, it was a terrible threat, so he stopped at a supermarket nearby and picked a gift for his daughter.

“Then... don't do that.” As he walked to the exit to prepare for the checkout, a woman's voice came from the front, understated, with a hint of deep cowardice.

Adrian couldn't help but look up at herself and stood next to the cashier, a woman of about 27 or 8 years of age, with beautiful light brown and golden hair and a good face. Although the whole person was a little thin, she was still a beautiful woman. She was taking the bread out of the basket at the moment, and there were not many items in it, and there was not much left to take out the bags, and then stood there in a hurry and seemed nervous.

The cashier glanced at her and, although a little impatient, did not clearly write on her face, knocking on the computer a few times and reporting the amount: “A total of $37 and 25 cents. ”

When she heard this number, the woman showed hesitation and looked at what was in the basket and seemed to want to forget to take it outside, but eventually bit her lip or pulled out her wallet. Some trembled and touched out pieces of banknote coins to pay the bill.

Needless to say, you can probably guess what's going on, but Adrian is still a little curious. Where does this woman seem to have met? He wasn't sure if this familiarity came from a past life or from this life, but he could definitely have looked at each other's information at some point or another.

Paying Pooh Bear to walk out of the mall, Adrian saw the woman again, she was walking to the parking lot with her bag in her hand, her low head pulling a paper towel out of her pocket, and some shaky backshadows multiplied the feeling of falling. Just as she pulled out the tissue, something was pulled out of her pocket, but she walked forward unaware, looking around, the sky grew darker and there were not many people around her, and Adrian shrugged her shoulders.

Pick it up, it turns out it's a woman's purse, gently pinch it down and you'll know it's almost empty. Adrian remembered her previous familiarity and flipped over, and her eyes lit up.

“Turns out it was her...” With the name on his driver's license, he had to pick his eyebrows. Information about her suddenly popped out of his mind. Although those huge memories were messy because there was no search engine, enough clues could extract what he needed from them.

It's a good match in time, and it should be definitely her. Chasing after women, Adrian thought about it, and then immature thoughts and plans poured into his mind.

“Hey, sis, you lost something.” He yelled at the woman who was about to get in, a Ford who didn't know how many times to turn around, although it looked nice and neat, not as rusty as some old cars, but it might turn off and scrap.

“Something?” The woman who put the bag in the car turned around and looked at Adrian in confusion, but when she noticed the wallet in his hand, she panicked and touched her pocket and grabbed it.

“God, I'm so careless. If I lose this, I'm really screwed.” She was rushing to check her wallet to make sure there was no damage to her long outlet.

Then she realized that the man who returned her wallet was still in front of her, and she was a little embarrassed to apologize: “I'm sorry, sir... I... I'm a little too excited... I...”

“It's okay, I understand. Is everything there?” Adrian nodded with a smile, "I would have left if they were all there. ”

“Yes, all in, thank you, sir, thank you very much.” The woman repeatedly thanked Adrian, waved her hand and turned to her car, opposite her only three spaces apart.

When he got in the car, he wasn't in a hurry to start leaving, but he noticed the old Ford of the woman, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

On the seventh ignition, the car made a whining sound in the vibration, but it didn't start in the end. Instead of slapping the steering wheel with anger, she banged, loud, but the whole person climbed on top with frustration, and her body became unusually weak.

Looking back at today's audition, that strong sense of humiliation suddenly burst into my mind again, with only a few pieces of paper crap and a script, I ran to the other company for three days, but I couldn't get just one character. Forget it if you can't get it, but what did the goddamn boss say? “Haven't you auditioned yet? Oh, no, we've got the right person." At that moment, she felt like she was stripped naked and standing in the street laughing.

But even so, she has to keep fighting, think about her dry purse, think about the time she paid... she looks at the bag in the co-pilot's position with a bitter smile, and these should be enough for her to last a while, right? If it wasn't the kind person who returned the wallet she had left behind, she really didn't know what to do next, unless...

Her smile gets bitter, and even if you think about it, you have to have a chance, don't you? With a beating of the steering wheel, she held her face and rubbed it constantly. It's gonna be okay. It's gonna be okay. It's gonna be okay.

Starting the engine again, the old car finally did not strike and finally started after a few bursts. She was relieved, she was in a better mood, and she couldn't get a smile out of her face, so she drove down the street. Probably bad luck has passed, the old man's car has been driving smoothly all the way and nothing has gone wrong, which has made her feel better again.

But the good mood didn't last long. When the apartment shook her eyes, she suddenly opened her eyes and stepped on the throttle to accelerate the car before stopping. She jumped and panicked and ran to the apartment door.

“No, Mrs. Lawrence, please don't do this, don't do this," she pleaded, holding onto a middle-aged woman dragging her suitcase outside.

“Go away.” The dark-skinned, apparently Mexican, middle-aged woman said impatiently, leaving her hand behind and leaving the box on the street at the door, which was already full of stuff.

“Listen, Mrs. Lawrence, I've already... I've got a role, I'm going to have money, please don't do this, please forgive me for two more days, please.” She begged to hold each other's arms again.

“You've owed me a few months' rent, * son, do you think I'm in a relief home?" The middle-aged woman drinks with some viciousness, dumping her again and walking inside.

She didn't chase her way in. No, she didn't chase her way in. She almost cried out. Finally, she had to pick up what had been thrown into the street in order to see a broken statue. More sadly, if it hadn't been for this on the street, maybe she'd cried out.

“All right, your things are here. Take these and get the hell out of here. Don't let me see you again." The middle-aged lady said, throwing another bag out and banging on the floor. “Of course, if you stay in arrears, I promise you'll get a summons from the court."

“I know, Mrs. Lawrence, but please don't throw me out like this. I know you're a kind man, just two days, just two days.” Sucking down her nose, she grabbed each other's arms again and said in a pleading tone, even if there was too much grief in her heart at this moment, she could only swallow it in her stomach and continue to accompany her, if she was expelled from it, she really did not know what to do.

“I've heard enough, you've said two days of grace each time, but not for months. You come out with a penny. To be honest, I've seen enough women like you. I thought this place was full of gold. I dreamed that I could be famous if I was an actor. But in the end, I couldn't even pay the rent. Most of them ended up being street girls. You see, you're not too far off, or you can go stand a few months down the street and return the rent you owe me." Middle-aged women foaming in vicious language said, "If I'm not a kind person, I throw these things out and I'll load them up for you? ”

She stared at the middle-aged woman, her lips trembling slightly, her face getting whiter and she was wrapped in unprecedented humiliation, and her soul seemed to have left her body and drifted away until a voice rang in her ear: "What happened, Naomi? ”

She finally woke up from that feeling of groundlessness and turned around, and the man who had returned her wallet in the parking lot came to herself, and with a puzzling glimpse, she looked at something in the ground and looked at her and the middle-aged woman who had just shut up.

“What's going on, Naomi?” He asked again, and she stared at him, forgetting to answer for a moment.

“Who are you?” Middle-aged women were the first to ask.

“I'm Naomi's boyfriend. Can you tell me what's going on here?” The man raised his eyebrows and asked in a non-inferior tone.

“Ha, you're Naomi's boyfriend, that's right, I'm your girlfriend's landlord, and your girlfriend owes me a few months' rent," said the middle-aged woman.

Yet instead of taking care of her, the man grabbed Naomi's shoulder and revealed his angry and heartbreaking look: “Is this what's on your mind? Oh, you're such a stupid girl. Why didn't you tell me? ”

“I... I...” Naomi finally reacted and looked at his sincere face without knowing what to say.

“Well, I know you're strong, you want to work on your own, you don't want me to interfere too much, but you have to think about yourself, right? If I hadn't come by today, how long would you be keeping it from me? If I hadn't come by today, would you be spending the night in a nearby park? Damn it, do you still think I'm your boyfriend?” The man said angrily and helplessly.

Then he turned his head and asked in a cold tone, "How much does she owe you? ”

Naomi felt a shock in her heart and realized something was holding him, but she hadn't said anything, and the other side had turned around and grabbed her hand and said in an irresistible flavour: "Okay, leave it to me, don't talk. ”

With a slight blink, Naomi couldn't help but stand still and understand what was happening. An unknown feeling spread through her heart, allowing her to swallow the refusal to reach her mouth.

“Go ahead, how much?” Men once again looked at middle-aged women and regained a chilling tone.

“Um... $2,000.” In this glance, the deterred landlady also lost her previous arrogance and reported a number after swallowing her saliva.

“No, it was just...” Naomi screamed voluntarily, but before she finished, the landlady started screaming: “Don't forget, Naomi, I paid for all the other expenses these past few months. Are these...”

“Okay” the man sounded, not too loud, but the slightly harsh tone stopped the two women from arguing.

“$2,000, right?” He confirmed his questioning, then pulled the checkbook out of his arms and brushed several copies under the dim light, tearing it down and handing it to the landlady.

“Yes, yes, thank you.” The other party swept the check quickly and said happily, "Then I won't bother you...”

“Wait." Without waiting for her to leave, the man called her again, then wrote a few more copies on the checkbook, tearing them down again and handing them over.

“Is this it?” The landlady grabbed her puzzled, sucked the cool air immediately after seeing the numbers and looked at him with an incredible look.

“I'm going out with Naomi now, and when I get back, these things,” he said, pointing to the big pile of things on the ground, in a high-spirited tone, "must be placed neatly in the position before them, you understand? ”

He said that the man there had accentuated his tone: "Be exactly as he was before he was thrown out."

“But...” The landlord too hesitated to look at something that was obviously broken on the ground. It was obvious what the other party meant. If you did, you would get the money, and you couldn't do it, which would be unfortunate.

“Do it yourself,” the man said without courtesy, "as long as Naomi thinks it's acceptable. ”

Looking at what was on the ground, looking at the cheque in her hand, a middle-aged woman of Mexican descent revealed her fanaticism and immediately promised: “No problem, no problem, I will definitely satisfy Sister Naomi. ”

In just a few minutes, the name changed from "* child” to “sister”, even with a smile, so you can see the magic of money.

“Okay, Naomi, let's go.” The man then embraced Naomi's shoulder.

“Go where?” Naomi dreamed of seeing it all.

“You forgot?” They're laughing, "we're going to Jack's party. Come on, if it's late, it's gonna be nagging again. ”

"Oh, I forgot, you're definitely not in the mood for a party right now, so why don't you go somewhere for dinner and go for a stroll and I'll be with you all night. ”

As she walked towards his car, Naomi was dragged by him like a puppet and finally had some ability to think until she got in the car. As soon as the car started, she looked backwards, outside the apartment, the landlady was asking for help to carry the previous things in, the light-handed look and the previous brutality were completely the opposite.

Turning his head and looking at the man driving, he held the steering wheel and looked forward. The five official lines were clear, as if they were carved out with a big force. His eyes were darker than most people's, as if they were deep underneath the lake, perhaps not so handsome, but don't have an attraction, give people a strong and reliable feeling.

Looking back at the look on the other person's face, the gentle words, and the means used to preserve her self-esteem, that unknown feeling was strongly felt in her chest, and all the flavors appeared. She doesn't know anything else, but the number on the second check to the landlady definitely won't.

“I... I'll pay you back.” After being silent, Naomi finally opened her mouth and she wanted to slap herself. Why would she say that?

Even so, she tried to keep her emotions under control and continued: “Although I don't know why you want to help me, please give me your business card, this money… I'll lend it to you… I'll pay it back…"

After swallowing her saliva, she continued: "Please... let me out in the front, I will... stay outside for a few moments and go back...”

But after half a day, Naomi had to keep her mouth shut, and a few minutes later, the man's voice rang: “Shall we find a place for dinner? ”

“No need...” Naomi refused just now, her stomach grunted at this time, embarrassing her a lot.

The man smiled silently, still so gentle: "Your stomach is protesting, Naomi, don't wait for me to protest too. ”
