Sydnee simply replied, "Oh," when she heard that Emily was taking a bath.
She froze for a while.
Then she suddenly realized what was wrong and covered her mouth with her hand in astonishment and panic. Finally, she managed to greeted Vincent calmly, "Hello, is that Mr. Vincent? Good evening."
"Yes, it's me." Vincent seemed to be in a good mood.
Hearing the man's voice, Sydnee could not help but think of a scene in her mind: while Emily was taking a bath, Vincent was holding the shower head for her ... She told herself to stop imagining the sexual scene.
"I ... I'll leave you two to it. You ... You two can continue." Sydnee hurriedly hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, she found that her problem was still not solved. So what should she do next?
Then she suddenly realized that she could tell Eliot that Marquise had left his house!
Sydnee thought that was really a good idea and immediately called Eliot. But as she was about to speak, she heard her parents' voice from the door, "Sydnee, that man called Marquise is here again!"
Sydnee froze.
The timing her parents spoke could not be worse.
Still in shock, Sydnee held her phone and heard Eliot's gentle voice coming out from the phone, "I'll be there soon. Don't worry."
But she did not want Eliot to come at all!
Sydnee almost wanted to cry.
That was just an unexpected calamity!
She wondered why on earth Marquise went to her place at that moment.
...
Vincent hung up the phone and placed it above the wash basin. Emily just got out from the bathtub. She wrapped a bath towel around her body. Her hair was wet, and there was an alluring fragrance around her.
"Who called?" Emily asked.
"Sydnee."
"Why did she call?" Emily was puzzled. She had vaguely heard a car engine sound when she was taking her bath, and she wondered if someone in the house headed out late at night.
Vincent said, "Your brother went to her place."
Emily was dumbfounded.
What?
Vincent took a towel and wrapped her long hair with it. He used his slender fingers to comb her hair lock by lock and said, "I'm going abroad for a meeting tomorrow. It might take a few days before I come back."
Emily froze and looked up at him. Her deer-like eyes were moist, harmless, and adorable as she said, "Alright."
Vincent touched her face and couldn't help but kiss her on the lips again.
Emily took a few steps back to avoid his kiss. Her lips were still red and swollen, and they hurt from just being touched.
Vincent chuckled and spoke with his chest voice, "My fault."
Vincent caressed her earlobe and said, "Be a good girl and don't pout."
Emily's heart softened. Even though Eliot also said nice things like this to her a lot, she had never felt so sweet. She felt as sweet as if honey had been poured into her heart.
She put on her rabbit pajamas and suddenly remembered Christy's text message. She asked as she looked at Vincent's chin, "Noah's plan failed. Can you send a few people to protect them secretly?"
Vincent agreed without hesitation, "Okay."
Emily was pleased. After changing into her pajamas, she took out a hairdryer and began to dry her hair.
Vincent stood behind her and stretched out his long arms to wrap them around her. He asked, "Is there anything else you want to tell me?"
"No." Emily looked at the two people in the mirror. The man was so tall that had made her look small.
He lowered his head slightly. He breathed on her neck and it tickled her. His deep voice went into her ears, and she felt as if he was tapping her heart with his voice. He said with his breathy voice, "Are you sure there isn't?"
Emily turned the hairdryer up all the way and said with the loud background noise, "Come back early."
Vincent kissed the back of her neck. His voice was hoarse but affectionate, "Okay."
He made a promise with just one word.
At that time, Emily did not know how dangerous Vincent's trip would be, nor did she know that this was the first time Vincent had promised anyone to come back early, and to come back alive.
Vincent's flight was at midnight. After leaving the Britt's, he chatted with Rolando for a while, and then went downstairs and headed to the airport.
Rex instructed the guards while holding a suitcase.
"No. 1 and No. 2, protect Noah and Christy secretly."
"No. 3, stay at the Scavo's and protect Mr. Rolando."
"No. 4, stay at the Britt's and protect the little Hulk."
"Mr. Vincent is going without us this time?" Guard 1 asked, "Let No. 3 go with Mr. Vincent."
The four guards were all selected carefully. Each of them had outstanding abilities. No. 3 could react well in all aspects. Other than his relatively low EQ, his every ability was better than others'.
And there was also No. 4. Well, he was too pretentious. No one liked him, and no one voted for him.
Guard 4 was speechless as he wondered why they had to involve him in this discussion.
Vincent came out and saw the guards. He greeted them and got into the car, "I'll leave the house to you guys. Protect it properly."
The guards said in unison, "Yes sir!"
"And protect her with your life." Before the car door was closed, everyone heard Vincent's deep voice. They all understood that the word "her" meant Emily, and they immediately turned to look at No. 4.
Guard 4 understood the importance of that order and replied, "Yes sir!"
All the hostesses in the Scavo family had an unfortunate life. The last Mrs. Scavo and Vincent's sister all died because of him. Everyone in the Scavo family knew about it.
This was the first time in many years that Mr. Vincent fell in love with a girl. The guards all saw it with their own eyes and remembered it. They swore in their hearts sincerely.
They would do their best to protect Emily, even with their lives.
