novelxo Chapter 16 The Unique Gift in the World
Johny returned to the villa, and Ceres was asleep very heavily.
He leaned to the bedside and stroked her little face. It turned out that her real name was Ceres.
Ceres Taylor.
Well, it was a good name.
Ceres rubbed her eyes and felt that the sunshine outside was dazzling. She groped to pull up the quilt and covered her face.
When she thought of what happened last night, she suddenly removed the quilt.
She remembered as if she was drinking with a rooster on the balcony, then the bodyguard came, and then she did not remember anything.
There should be no drunken sex and bodyguards...
It was over! She was Johny's wife!
Ceres carefully lifted the quilt and looked at her body. Fortunately, the clothes were complete, so she let out a sigh of relief.
She sat up and found that her head still hurt a little, and she was dizzy.
'What kind of wine was that? It was so strong!' Ceres thought to herself.
She was not very clear-headed all day and waited for the bodyguard to appear in the old place until the evening. After a while, the bodyguard finally arrived.
She immediately smiled and folded her hands. "Please, please, don't tell them anything about yesterday, okay? If you reveal it, then I am finished."
Last night, she stole several bottles of wine from the wine cabinet. The wine was very expensive at first sight. She was in a bad mood, so she stole the wine. Afterward, she really regretted it. Although there was a lot of wine in the wine cabinet, she really could not afford it if someone checked on it.
The masked man frowned. "Why?"
"Why, you say? Why is this? If you tell them what happened, I am dead. Please, we are friends in need, aren't we? Just do me this favor, okay?"
Ceres pleaded with her hands folded and her eyes narrowed.
The masked man stared at Ceres tightly. If the Winsors knew that Ceres was married to him, they would definitely not spare the Morrises, and Ceres, a fake bride who was meant to bring good luck to her. They would naturally have no good end.
But Ceres did not know she was drunk and unconsciously told him the truth. What she wanted the masked man to keep secret was nothing more than that few bottles of wine. "Okay."
Ceres suddenly smiled. "I knew you were so kind!"
She patted the masked man on the shoulder with great pleasure.
The masked man looked at the place where she had photographed and looked up at her.
"What's good for me?" He asked,
"Good? Hmm..." Ceres thought carefully, "I will give you a gift in a few days."
"Gift?" The masked man frowned.
"Yes! Don't you want something good? My gift is unique in the world!" Ceres was very proud when she said this.
After all, she was a brilliant student and a talented girl recognized by the professor!
The masked man snorted.
Ceres was provoked. "What was that? Are you looking down on people? I already told you, my gift will definitely surprise you, just wait." She rubbed her temples. "That... the wine is too strong. I won't talk nonsense with you today. Go back to sleep. Good night!"
She told him to cut off the conversation. Ceres rubbed her head and went back to the room.
That night, a flash of lightning flashed across the sky, and after a while, it was thunder, which broke the silence of the whole night.
"Ah--"0000000
