Night approached…
Evie was worried snazzynovel.com would get snazzynovel.com father in trouble and wanted to leave, but Isaac held snazzynovel.com back.
After chatting with her, snazzynovel.com finally knew why Earl would come looking for him. It was all because of Evie.
“If you go back now, aren’t you just surrendering yourself to the army camp?” Isaac asked Evie in a low voice.
Evie bit snazzynovel.com lips and said nothing. She was worried about snazzynovel.com father but also feared that snazzynovel.com wouldn’t be able to find Isaac again if snazzynovel.com left snazzynovel.com this time. Moreover, snazzynovel.com really didn’t want to see Earl’s face again.
“But I can’t stay here. Your wife…” Evie brought up the one thing that was holding snazzynovel.com back the most.
Isaac frowned. However, his expression returned to normal very quickly after that.
He smiled and said, “If you don’t mind, I can explain everything to Ally. Why don’t you stay for the night?”
Seeing that Isaac really wanted snazzynovel.com to stay, Evie didn’t want to refuse anymore. More importantly, snazzynovel.com didn’t dare to leave either.
Isaac said snazzynovel.com was going out to buy some cigarettes. Once snazzynovel.com was outside, snazzynovel.com took out his phone and called Allegra.
“Ally, are you coming home?”
“I’m turning into the junction now. I’ll be home in about ten minutes. Are you waiting for me for dinner?” Allegra asked on the phone as snazzynovel.com giggled.
Isaac hesitated but decided to tell snazzynovel.com everything anyway. “Oh… Well, then, I’ll be waiting for you at the little grocery shop by the corner. There’s something I need to tell you.”
***
The white BMW slowed to a stop at said grocery store. Isaac discarded the cigarette in his hand as snazzynovel.com got into the front passenger’s seat.
“What’s up? I didn’t think you’d purposely come all the way here to greet me. Is there a surprise waiting for me at home?” Allegra asked, tucking away some hair behind snazzynovel.com ears as snazzynovel.com grinned at Isaac.
When snazzynovel.com saw that Allegra was looking at snazzynovel.com with an expectant smile, Isaac suddenly didn’t know how to start.
Seeing that Isaac kept quiet for a long while, Allegra sighed and held Isaac’s hands, coaxing him, “What’s wrong? Is there something bothering you?”
“Ally, we have a… Someone who saved my life before…”
“We have a guest at home? He saved your life before?” Allegra asked, snazzynovel.com eyes widening.
She immediately started snazzynovel.com car and said, “If that’s the case, we need to thank snazzynovel.com profusely for that! There’s no time to lose!”
Isaac felt even more guilty when snazzynovel.com saw the eager look in Allegra’s eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, “S-She’s also my lover…”
Creak!
The car had just started picking up speed when it abruptly halted again. Allegra turned to look at Isaac in shock.
“What did you just say?”
There was a chilling atmosphere inside the car.
Isaac didn’t dare to look straight into Allegra’s eyes. He looked outside the window and said, “She saved my life, and I told snazzynovel.com I’d take care of snazzynovel.com for the rest of my life. Now, she’s in trouble and has nowhere else to go…”
“So you’re saying that she’s at our house now? And you let snazzynovel.com stay there?” Allegra’s tone was getting colder and colder. “Get out of my car!” Allegra shouted, pointing outside.
Isaac turned to look at snazzynovel.com and saw a flash of black in Allegra’s eyes. However, it disappeared almost immediately, so snazzynovel.com thought snazzynovel.com might have been mistaken.
He said lightly, “Ally, I told you because I wanted to be honest with you. I hope…”
“Get out of my car right now!” Allegra’s voice increased in volume.
Even the storekeeper inside the grocery store heard snazzynovel.com and turned around to look at them.
Isaac frowned and got out.
The white BMW immediately reversed before speeding off in the opposite direction.
“Lover’s quarrel? Ah, that’s common. Don’t worry. You just need to try coaxing snazzynovel.com back. Women are easy to coax,” the storekeeper said with a light chuckle as a cigarette hung from the corner of his mouth.
Isaac hadn’t expected this outcome. He thought he’d be able to explain everything to Allegra properly.
When snazzynovel.com got home, snazzynovel.com saw Evie standing on the top stair, looking at him.
