20 'points'
Zach kept his distance, "Ethella, what are you doing here?" The vampire kept smiling, but really didn't want to look at the woman, "I don't want to ask a third time." ”
"Summoned. Aethra waved her hand as if casually, "It's interesting to note that I received a call from the police that my dear husband, whose most beloved car was found to be reimbursed at the Southern Side border. Ethel didn't mind letting her eyes stick to the vampire, as if helpless, she tilted her head, "Because my precious son can't speak a word, so I can only ask you." ”
Zach slowly paced back and forth in the second floor of the warehouse, still smiling, "Sorry, Aethera, I didn't understand, your husband's car was 'reimbursed.'" Zach shrugged, "What does it have to do with Caesar not talking?
Aethra didn't mind Zach's rudeness, "Otherwise, I can ask our mutual 'friend', Anthony." She suddenly pressed her fingers to her mouth, revealing an embarrassed look, "Oh!"
As if she was explaining the reason for her embarrassment, even if no one asked, "Anthony should be thinking about something important right now, I'm afraid he won't have time to answer those questions." Aethra laughed, "We shouldn't disturb the mayor's important work. She accentuated the word 'important' and smiled at the vampire, "What do you say?"
Zach's eyes narrowed, and Ethera's purpose was truly revealed.
She's testing to see if Grande is already running for mayor in the future!
Come to think of it, last night, Anthony had already made it clear to himself why he would have dinner with Ethera. Acera deliberately 'showed off' in front of Anthony after grasping the advantage! If it was just a simple show-off, then she would not be the woman who once saw the 'Barton symbol' at first sight!
Apparently, she took advantage of the prison affair. What kind of political agreement has been proposed to threaten Mayor Anthony! After all, there is still more than one quarter left in the mayoral race, and God knows what variables will happen during this period! Aethra will use every ounce of resources at his disposal to constantly pile up and consolidate his chances of victory! The prison incident is obviously one of them!
Now Anthony is probably just as Aethera said, and is working with his team on damage control zhì, analyzing Aethera's agreement. Trying to carve out a glimmer of interest in the disadvantage.
At this time, it is not a good time for this woman to ask what happened to a broken car! If Anthony is forced to make a wrong decision, the future mayoral race will be doomed to danger.
As Anthony's opponent, Aethera will not have any expectations for Anthony's character at this time. She knew Anthony's secret, she knew Grande's secret, so she had to think about nothing but pure political struggle. And think about this alien family that can break the rules of human struggle!
"What does this have to do with Anthony?" Zach raised an eyebrow, still not looking at Ethera, "Ethella, you've completely baffled me. The vampire shook his head with a lost expression on his face, "Overall, you're here because you've been summoned by the Southern District Police Department. Right. ”
Zach pursed his lips and comforted him heartily. "Then I'll make it, instead of saying these things that I don't understand to me who is not welcome here, it's better for you to go to the police station and report it quickly. ”
Aethra squinted, staring at the vampire's side face, trying to probe the true love beneath that unchanging face. She could only look at the side face that performed various expressions at will, and could not see the panorama. She couldn't find out anything!
The corners of Ethra's eyes twitched slightly, and her impatient expression flickered. She had nothing to complain about, and was she digging her own grave to ask a vampire to look into her eyes when she was talking like a normal human?
Do you think this woman is going to give up? This is once with a mouth. The woman who escaped unharmed in front of the vampire and the alpha only grabbed the right 'point'!
Once in the driveway at night, that 'point' was Anthony!
Aethra smiled again, seemingly relaxed, "What about Louise?"
The vampire's gaze clasped the woman on the alpha bed!
Aethra looked away early, and sat lazily on the mattress without defense, her tone a little regretful, "The last time I was at Mrs. Quinn's dinner, we got along very well. I don't know why, but suddenly I left without even saying 'goodbye'. ”
Ethra's tone was a little lost, "I'll ask a mutual friend, Susan, to get to know you." I wonder if there was some misunderstanding between us. She shook her head, as if saddened, "but it didn't seem to be going well, and she seemed to have misunderstood what I meant." She smiled again, "Since I'm here this time, I want to talk to her in person and solve these misunderstandings." ”
Aethra adjusted her posture, "After all, I like her a lot. Her gaze met with that of the vampire, "We're the same people. ”
"Louise doesn't have anything in common with you. Zach stared at Ethera, a crimson in the depths of his pale green pupils.
"Ah~" The tone turned, and the smile on Ethella's face was not fake, she caught that 'point'. Ethra's hand pointed at Zach a little, "Is it different?" she shook her head, "I decided to stick to my instincts anyway. We'll see how it goes, and see who's right. ”
Aethra glanced sideways, "Where is she?"
There was no response, Aethra was ready to take the initiative, she picked up the high heels on the bed, folded her legs to the side, leaned forward, pressed her slender fingers on the heels, and put them on, "Is it breakfast? She seemed to be complaining, "Oh, I hate high heels." I was woken up early in the morning by a phone call from the police, I didn't eat anything, and I was really guilty of wearing all this......"
Meaningless complaints, we don't listen.
Zach frowned as he watched as Acera stood up, straightened her clothes, and smiled at him, "How about being a qualified host and taking me to the restaurant?"
Zach's frowning brow unfolded, and he raised his hand and grabbed Ethera's arm, "I can get you out of Grande." ”
Aethra, whose body was lifted by an irresistible force, did not panic at all, and with a smile on her face, she followed the vampire in the direction of the stairs, and watched the vampire's hand holding her arm, and the faint jet black spread along the vein texture under the pale skin, spreading from the inside of the vampire's palm that was clinging to her clothes!
Silver, it has the effect of blocking the ability of the alien, it makes the alien weak!
"Don't you have breakfast?" Ethella's tone was full of laughter, "I heard Susan say that Alice's cooking skills can be compared to those chefs. ”
"There was no breakfast. Zach also smiled, ignoring what was happening at his own end, "As I said, you shouldn't keep the cops waiting too long." ”
"Oh~" Aethra stepped down the stairs as she was in the hands of a vampire, "I almost forgot how much you enjoyed being with the police." Aethra didn't try to break free of the other party's grasp, and said what she wanted to say easily, "It used to be Anthony, and now, well, James Lance. She blinked, "Good choice~"
The strength in Zack's hand has increased a little, but the woman who bears the power doesn't seem to react, still relaxed, and still says what she wants to say!
"Detective Lance, how's it going?" Ethella asked a question that would never be answered, and she looked a little curious, "I haven't had a chance to contact him, since we are friends, if we have a chance, can you introduce me?"
Zach smiled, had already walked up the stairs, and walked towards the door, "There's a chance." He casually raised his empty hand to block out the bright sun.
"Then you're going to have to hurry. Aethra watched the vampire's movements and smiled at her car, "I heard that Detective Lance has a friend who used to serve with him and was assigned to the Southern Police Department. ”
Aethra put one hand on the handlebar, watching the vampire's released palm retract, his eyes in the shadows under his arm, unable to see the look, "Wes?" Ethela opened the car door, "I don't know, if we can meet today." ”
"Good luck then. The corners of Zach's mouth curled in the shadows, and he responded in a casual tone. Watching the woman sitting in the driver's seat close the door, she turned the key, reminding, "Aethera, seat belts." Always remember to wear your seatbelt. ”
"Oh! I almost forgot, thanks for the reminder!" Ethra nodded 'gratefully', pulled the seat belt, and smiled sideways at Zach as she started the car and was about to start, "Well, see you next time." ”
Zach didn't want to say a word anymore, nodded and waved. I watched as the uninvited car turned around and drove away from Grande's backyard.
The side door on the back porch was pushed open, and Benjamin was still holding a plate, looking at the vampire standing in the sun, "Gone?"
"Yes. Zach lowered his arm blocking the sun and walked to the shadows of the back porch.
"You hold back. Benjamin tilted his head, the toast in his hand picked up the salad in the bowl, and there was a sense of disappointment in his tone.
Zach shook his head and lifted his black silk palm to show Alpha, "A little help." ”
Benjamin snorted, sideways, ass facing the vampire, a bottle in the pocket of Benjamin's jeans.
Zach looked relieved, pulled the bottle, uncorked it, and poured it up.
"We're never going to get rid of this trouble, right? Benjamin's cheeks squirmed, chewing on the food in his mouth.
In the wine bottle lying on its back in the air, the red liquid plane swayed and fell. The darkness on the vampire's hands faded and vanished.
The upside-down bottle dangled in the air, every drop of liquid hollowed out by the vampire. Zach moved his arm in satisfaction, "Looks like it." (To be continued......)
