Chapter 846 Why Here?
Chapter 846 Why Here?
For Elara Ye, she only cared about two things: first, the extent of Xeno's injuries, and second, whether Luis had covered his tracks perfectly, leaving no loose ends.
From a selfish human perspective, as long as it didn't implicate her, there was nothing to worry about.
But ultimately, she had to consider her uncle's side of things, from a purely interest-based standpoint.
And on a personal emotional level, after learning about this, she was utterly shaken. She never expected that this newly acquainted younger brother would be willing to take such a huge risk for her.
In the eyes of a normal person, if this wasn't an accident but a meticulously planned conspiracy, it would be terrifying.
Thinking it over calmly, how did he bribe the driver, and how could he ensure the driver wouldn't slip up under police interrogation?
The source of the car, and Xeno's whereabouts—he'd have to have an informant within the crew. Was that informant trustworthy?
Elara Ye thought it through and realized that she herself wouldn't have the courage to do something like this. She wasn't confident she could make it flawless.
Even though children of powerful families had a certain pride, they also saw and knew more. Generally, those who'd seen the world wouldn't be so arrogant.
That's why she was so worried. The most important factor was that this wasn't the Ye family's traditional territory.
If there were any clues, they couldn't easily intervene. So she kept thinking about trying to find connections over there, to use the guise of concern to gather more information and be ready for any unexpected developments.
"When are you coming over!!"
Elara Ye asked softly. She still preferred the warm, lived-in feeling of home, the atmosphere of daily life.
With this charmingly roguish, harmless-looking yet sunny and handsome younger brother, her mind buzzed, involuntarily recalling the massive shaft she'd glimpsed that morning.
Luis thought for a moment and said, "This evening!!"
"Then I'll arrange my work. I'll leave early today."
Elara Ye gritted her teeth and said, "I'll do my best to find out what's happening over there. Luis, you don't need to worry, okay?"
"You did all this for me. If there's really trouble, I'll go back and beg Grandpa, even if I get yelled at. I won't let anything happen to you."
The feeling of mutual devotion was truly wonderful. Luis said a tender goodbye to her, yawned, and went back to bed to cuddle the mother and daughter for a few more hours.
When he woke up, the sun was already high in the sky. Avery, the student, was the most disciplined and had already gotten up, showered, and was doing her homework in the living room.
Luis carried the still-shy Blanche into the shower together. They were both satisfied from the night before, so he didn't push them further.
All three were starving. Though this neighborhood was a new development, it was a bit out of the way with limited food options.
Both mother and daughter thought a local tea restaurant was decent, so they chose that nearby.
"A signature wonton noodle soup, a braised beef brisket noodle soup, and a fried rice with kale and beef."
"A barbecue platter, a black pepper beef tenderloin, and a white-cut chicken with the leg."
"For soup... today's daily special, three bowls of squab and morel mushroom soup."
The best thing about Hong Kong-style tea restaurants was the fast service. They were all ravenous, and as soon as the food arrived, they dug in.
After they'd finished eating and were sipping their soup, Luis asked, "Has Manager Minda set a time to meet with you?"
Blanche nodded and said, "She asked me to come over after lunch. She had a cleaner go over the place yesterday, and she's always kept it maintained."
"After we see it this afternoon and get the keys, the lawyers will go with me tomorrow to handle the transfer procedures."
Blanche smiled and said, "I'm going with Avery to see the place in a bit. After we get the keys, I'll take her to the furniture store first so she can pick out what she wants for her room."
"After an early dinner, I'll drop her off so she can make it to evening self-study."
"I'll spend the rest of the week buying the other furniture and appliances."
Finally, Blanche said a bit sheepishly, "Don't worry, I won't try to save money this time. If you don't trust me, you can come along."
When Blanche had bought this place, she'd had to scrape and borrow, practically breaking her teeth to come up with the down payment.
The monthly mortgage payments were also a heavy burden. But for the sake of having a home for herself and her daughter, she gritted her teeth and kept working hard.
When it came to the renovations, she was really strapped for cash. She'd saved wherever she could, which was why the place was so bare-bones. The few decorative touches were cheap and flashy but not functional.
This was a bit of a sore spot for Blanche. Fortunately, her daughter was young and so happy to have her own room that she didn't realize how shabby everything looked.
"No, I have things to do this afternoon!"
"You go with Avery. I'll be back this weekend. If you're having a housewarming party, I'll come by then."
Luis shook his head. No way—he couldn't let his family know he'd snuck back.
Besides, shopping was an activity with endless stamina for women, but for men, it was a marathon through hell.
Though Luis considered himself considerate and patient, he'd still avoid this hellish, anti-human activity if possible.
Avery giggled. The clever little girl said slyly, "Daddy, don't worry about us. Go take care of your important business."
"Don't worry. Besides picking out stuff for my room today, I'm also going to help Mom pick out her bed. We have to find one that's comfortable even when we're all squished together."
"The one now is too cramped. We need a bigger one. Or we could just get two beds and push them together, so no matter how much we roll around, no one falls off."
Remembering last night's mother-daughter intimacy, even though it was just oral and they'd had sex separately without interaction, it was a good start for Luis.
Training them was a long and arduous process, but the journey itself was also a satisfying pleasure.
Most importantly, the ice had been broken last night. Neither mother nor daughter were as shy as he'd expected. Though they were embarrassed and didn't communicate, they showed no resistance at all.
Avery, having experience and being open to both genders, was naturally very accepting.
Her mother, with a normal sexual orientation, tried her best not to make things awkward for her daughter, facing this lewd and absurd reality head-on.
Luis was very satisfied and looking forward to seeing if the next mother-daughter sharing experience would be just as wonderful.
Blanche blushed, glanced at her daughter, and said, "Then, we'll do what Avery said."
That afternoon, mother and daughter headed to City Garden. They were a bit reluctant to leave when it was time to go.
After saying goodbye, Luis let out a lewd grin, sending a text message as he hailed a taxi.
