Chapter 58 The Painstaking Effort
After eating, Mr. Bourbon took Abella around and finally came to the top floor to see from afar.
"It's dark and too far away to see, it's better in the daytime, you can see the beautiful flowers and grass, the creek, and the mountains in the distance, Abella, you must come to see it when you have time."
"Okay." Abella looked at the time and her voice was soft, "It's late, I should go back."
"Don't ......" Mr. Bourbon was a bit reluctant, "Stay a little longer, right?"
"I'll see you next time."
Seeing that Abella wanted to leave, Mr. Bourbon hurriedly squinted at the housekeeper, who understood and immediately ordered someone to get ready secretly.
Abella was led by Phillipe and just took the elevator to the living room on the first floor when all the lights in the villa went down.
"What's going on?" Mr. Bourbon asked knowingly, "Why is the power out for no reason?"
"It's strange, we've lived here for so many years and we've never had this happen before! I'll go and see what's wrong, Master, Young Master and young miss, stay calm, I'll be right there."
The butler pretended to be unaware of the situation and quickly went down.
"Phillipe, you take Abella and go sit on the sofa." Mr. Bourbon turned his head and instructed his subordinates, "Go and find some candles and emergency lights."
"Master, didn't you have some beautiful emergency lamps in your collection before?" A servant asked falsely according to what had been said beforehand.
"Oh yes, where did I put them, help me to look for them." Mr. Bourbon also found an excuse to leave.
Phillipe and Abella were the only two people left in the large living room.
Phillipe smirked, the villa clearly has power generation equipment, even if the power goes out, there is not a single light.
Is the old man deliberately giving them the opportunity to be alone?
Abella waited for a while and looked at the time, "It's eight-thirty, let's go."
My parents will worry if it's too late.
Phillipe pulled her into his arms, "It's still early, stay with me a little longer."
"How long have you been with me today?"
"Just a few hours, not enough." Phillipe held her a little tighter, "I want to spend more time with you."
Abella: ......
[Why is this guy so clingy?]
He used to be so high strung ......
"Let go, grandpa will see you later ......"
"He'll be happier when he sees it."
Upstairs.
The housekeeper who was waiting in the corner saw the old man being helped up and hurriedly whispered, "Old man, this way!"
Mr. Bourbon quickly walked over and squeezed him to look downstairs, "How is it going? How is it going?"
"The two of them are just talking, nothing substantial."
"Phillipe, this foolishness! It's so dark, why don't you kiss up there!" Mr. Bourbon thought about it, "Is it because the atmosphere is not enough? Send someone to bring down those emergency petal lights and LED candles."
"Yes."
Soon, the living room was hung with beautiful petal lights and LED candles were placed on other countertops, making the atmosphere soft and romantic.
"Wait a minute." Abella called out to one of the subordinates who arranged the candles, "Tell grandpa for me, I'm going back."
The servant was at a loss when faced with this unexpected situation, "young miss, the power is out, why don't we leave later?"
"It's too late."
"But the gate is locked, you can't get out."
Abella:?
"All the doors in the house are specially customized, they are electronic, the doors can't be opened if the power goes out."
"This kind of door is not a USB port? Direct mobile power charging is fine." Abella gave a solution.
But the subordinate replied, "There is no USB port ......"
"Then the spare key?"
"The key, the key is lost ......"
"Then ...... take off the dead battery inside the door lock and just replace it with a new one."
"There are no extra batteries either ......"
Abella: ......
What kind of door is this?!
There's nothing?
Seeing the subordinate's evasive eyes, Abella immediately understood what was going on, and the corners of her lips curled.
"Anyway, you tell grandpa for me." Abella stood up and was about to leave.
"young miss, you wait a little longer, allow me to report to the old master ...... you, you don't go ......"
Seeing that Abella was determined to leave, the servant hurriedly ran to find Mr. Bourbon.
Mr. Bourbon heard her finish and waved his hand smilingly, "It's okay, it's okay, I've had someone remove the USB port, the spare key and batteries were also put away, she can't get out unless the call comes in."
Abella came to the door and found that the USB port had been dismantled, and the spare key and battery hidden in the door were also missing, apparently taken away by someone.
She smiled and looked at the man in front of her, "Grandpa really went to a lot of trouble for you."
"It was for you." Phillipe embraced her, "He likes you a lot and wants you to stay."
[Heh, stay and let this guy take advantage?]
How could that be!
Her long fingers pressed on the combination lock, and soon, the door opened.
Several servants around were stunned, how did the young miss do it? The door was clearly locked ......
The old man said, without electricity it absolutely cannot open?
Phillipe did not expect her to be able to crack the system inside and directly bypass the password, this girl is quite a lot of things.
"I pressed it randomly, let's go." Abella took the lead to walk out of the door, but did not walk a few steps, suddenly heard a voice.
"young miss please stay, the old man suddenly had a heart attack, please go over and take a look!"
Abella:?
Not caring whether it was true or not, Abella hurriedly turned back again.
The servant with an antique emergency lamp led the way in front and led her to Mr. Bourbon's room.
"Ouch my heart ......" Mr. Bourbon was lying on the bed and pretending to be sick again.
"Grandpa, where are you not feeling well?" Abella's fingers were just on his wrist, and all of a sudden she understood what was going on.
"young miss, how is it, is old Mr. Bourbon okay?"
Abella's smiled, withdrew her hand and said lazily, "Quite well, if I had to say something, it's that he ate too much at night and it's propped up his stomach a bit."
Mr. Bourbon and the housekeeper did not expect Abella to know so quickly that he was pretending to be sick, and they were a little embarrassed at once.
"Grandpa, you take a good rest." Abella didn't say it straight and said gently, "I really should go back, my parents will worry if I'm late."
"young miss, you should stay! In case the old man has any sudden situation in the middle of the night, we can't find a doctor for a while ......," the housekeeper said desperately to stay.
"Yes, yes, you'll stay in the south room on the third floor, Phillipe is on the north side, you are living separately." Mr. Bourbon added.
"The main thing is that the house hasn't been this busy for a long time! You and the young master are usually busy with work, and I don't know when we will be able to visit the old man next ......"
"You are the granddaughter-in-law of the Bourbon family, and it makes sense for you to live in the Bourbon family! If you feel that the name is not right, I will immediately have someone to get you a marriage certificate!"
Abella: ......
And there's no need for that.
