Chapter 112 Do You Want Want Mine?
Her question left Laura completely confused. "Wait! How many boyfriends do you have?"
Evelyn shot a glance, and Laura instantly shut up.
Frowning, Laura thought for a while and said, "If we are not talking about the same person, then maybe the one who just came to deliver things isn't your boyfriend. It's impossible! In the middle of the night, he carryied so many things, including your personal belongings, and just gave them to me and left without saying anything else..."
Listening, Evelyn probably had a clue. With a hint of speculation in her heart, she looked at Laura and said, "Wait!"
She took her phone out of her pocket. She definitely didn't have a photo of Kyle herself, but she failed to find it online either. It seemed that Kyle was quite mysterious.
Glancing at Laura, Evelyn opened the WhatsApp chat box and sent a message to Samuel: [Give me a photo of Kyle.]
If she was correct, the one who came just now was likely Kyle, not Samuel.
If it were him personally, he would never give things to Laura and leave on his own. That was not his style.
"Just a moment!" Evelyn said.
After sending the message, Evelyn waited for a response. Samuel could have Kyle come to deliver things to her, so he definitely hadn't slept yet.
What Evelyn didn't know was that Samuel not only hadn't slept at this moment but was also on the road not far from the laboratory.
The black Porsche was quietly parked there, and he sat in the car with his eyes closed, resting.
Samuel knew she would be up late tonight. Unable to sleep alone at home, he decided to come over and bring her something, given the sudden drop in temperature.
He knew the importance of the experiment in its final stages and didn't want to disturb her, so he had Kyle deliver the items.
The phone rang twice. Samuel opened his eyes, glanced at the text on the screen, and furrowed his brows.
Kyle, sitting in the driver's seat, was completely unaware, but his instinctive vigilance made him feel a sudden chill on his back. Subconsciously, he glanced in the rearview mirror and met Samuel's deep and mysterious eyes, hesitated for a moment. "Mr. Whitman?"
Staring at him for a while, Samuel looked back at the phone screen, confirming that Evelyn was asking for a photo of Kyle, not of himself. His gaze darkened, and his tone grew even more serious. "Kyle, turn around."
Kyle looked puzzled.
"Turn around!" Samuel repeated, his voice already showing clear displeasure.
Although Kyle didn't understand, he obediently turned around as commanded and then... saw his boss raise the phone and aim it at him. "Click"!
Kyle fell silent.
"Mr. Whitman?"
Kyle's back broke out in a cold sweat. Why was Mr. Whitman taking his photo? Was he leaving a posthumous image for him in advance for some special and dangerous task?
Soon, Evelyn's phone flashed, and she picked it up. Upon opening it, she saw a close-up photo of Kyle.
It was clear that the photo was taken from a close distance, so clear that even the stiff lines on Kyle's face were evident, showing that he wasn't suitable for photos!
However, upon closer inspection, it did match Laura's description. Square face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, looking... a bit fierce!
The more she thought about it, the more she felt she was right. She turned and showed the photo to Laura. "Is this the one you were talking about?"
At a glance, Laura nodded repeatedly. "Yes, yes, that's him! I was right, wasn't I? And You said he's not your boyfriend?!"
"Not him." Shaking her head, she sighed and continued eating.
What a misunderstanding!
Thinking about how she tried to match Samuel to Laura's description, Evelyn felt herself quite foolish!
However, Samuel replied so quickly, and the photo was obviously taken recently. From the background behind Kyle in the image, although a bit blurry, it was clear that it was in a car. He was...
Before she could figure it out, another message came through.
Samuel just three simple words: [Do you want more?]
Evelyn thought he was asking if she wanted more Kyle's photos and hurriedly replied: [No, it's enough.]
Why would she need so many photos of Kyle? She just wanted to show Laura and confirm they weren't talking past each other.
Samuel: [Are you sure you don't need it?]
[Don't you want mine?]
Seeing that last message, Evelyn sprayed water out, choking and coughing repeatedly.
Although it was just a cold phone screen with a line of text, she could sense a touch of melancholy in it. What did he mean? Was he blaming her for not asking for his photo?
"Are you okay? You choked on water," Laura quickly helped her pat her back to ease her discomfort and curiously asked, "Who are you chatting with? By the way, if that person wasn't your boyfriend, then who was he, and why did he deliver things to you so late? How do you hace his photo?"
The more Laura thought about it, the more suspicious she felt; something didn't seem quite right, but she couldn't pinpoint it.
Coughing, Evelyn waved her hand, she decided to comfort Samuel first before explaining to Laura.
Quickly, Evelyn picked up her phone and replied: [I have you; that's enough. What do I need those photos for?]
Samuel sat in the car, looking at the text on his phone, and a faint smile finally appeared at the corner of his tight lips.
In the front seat, Kyle, trembling with fear, glanced at his boss through the rearview mirror. Just now, his boss's eyes were deep and focused on him, and his expression was serious and contemplative, but now... he was smiling?
What a bizarre turn of events!
Afraid that comforting Samuel wasn't enough, Evelyn added: [I'll take your photo when I get back!]
Finally satisfied, Samuel replied: [Good!]
Seeing the word "good", which represented that Samuel had calmed down, Evelyn breathed a sigh of relief. Feeling something behind her, she turned her head and was startled to see a huge head.
Puckering her lips, Laura had a sour expression. "I didn't expect you to be so cheesy. Oh my, I'm overwhelmed!"
Seeing Laura's expression, Evelyn chuckled, stood up, and casually patted her head. "Alright! Finish up quickly and get to work! Tidy up here, I'll go check if the results are out."
"Okay, I'll clean up! Let's finish work quickly so you can go back and take photos for your boyfriend!" Laura teased her, still not giving up. "By the way, why did you send me that person's photo just now? You should show me a photo of your boyfriend!"
"It seems like I've given you too little work, leaving you with too much free time!" Leaning against the door frame, Evelyn looked back at her.
"I stayed up all night with you. Consider it as the overtime benefits!" While clearing the trash on the table, Laura remembered the conversation she saw on Evelyn's phone screen and couldn't help but ask, "By the way, who is Samuel? Why does that name sound so familiar?"
Evelyn fell silent.
