Chapter 89 I'll Show You Around

Here, after all, was the place where she had lived for eighteen years.

Once back to the old place, Audrey Turnah had mixed feelings in her heart.

When Jerry Dank woke up, Audrey Turnah was no longer around.

He hurried downstairs, and Henry Dank came in from outside.

"Miss Turnah? She just left,'' he said to Jerry quickly.

Jerry Dank took the car keys.

"I'll come back to see you another day," he said to his father, turned around and strode away.

Henry Dank shook his head, these young people were more persistent than each other.

Alas, he was old, and as for young people's affairs, he had to let them decide for themselves, he had no energy to get involved anymore.

Jerry Dank drove out, but did not see Audrey Turnah.

Vanity was a villa area, so it was not easy to call a car. It stood to reason that she won't leave so quickly, and she will have to wait for a while for the car.

His speed was not too slow. The car circled around and was about to leave the villa area. Not only did he not see Audrey Turnah, but he also did not see a taxi.

Thinking of where this place was, Jerry Dank's thoughts moved slightly, and he turned around and went to No. 1 Vanity Villa.

Sure enough, from a distance, he saw the figure of the girl standing outside the black lacquer carved gate, staring at the villa in a daze.

He parked the car and walked slowly to Audrey Turnah.

She turned her head when she heard footsteps, saw that it was Jerry Dank, and forced a smile.

"How did you know I'm here, Mr. Dank?'' Audrey asked.

Her eyes were red, obviously, she had cried.

Jerry Dank was silent for a moment.

"Want to go in and have a look?" He asked.

"Is it okay?" Audrey asked Jerry Dank back.

Audrey Turnah was pleasantly surprised, but the next moment she thought of something, her eyes dimmed.

"Forget it, there should be people living in it, it's inconvenient," she suddenly said.

The exterior lights of the villa were all on. Although the garden still looked like it was five years ago, the flowers and plants were growing very well, and it was obvious that someone had taken care of it regularly.

She really wanted to revisit the old place, but the new owner might not be willing.

Jerry Dank raised his hand and rang the doorbell.

Audrey Turnah was very nervous.

"Mr. Dank, it's better not to call the door, it's so late, it's not good to trouble others..." she said nervously.

And if the other party disagreed with them going in, it will be embarrassing.

Jerry Dank stared at her.

"No trouble. This is my...a friend's residence, and no one lives in it,'' he replied.

Only then did Audrey Turnah breathe a sigh of relief. In the villa, someone ran over to open the door.

It was a middle-aged man in his fifties, who obviously knew Jerry Dank, and saluted respectfully.

"Mr. Dank," the man called.

His eyes fell on Audrey Turnah's face, his expression was horrified, and his face turned pale with fright.

"Miss, Miss?" The man cried, panicking.

Audrey Turnah was also stunned.

"Mr. Simon?'' She cried.

Simon was the driver of the Turnah family in the past.

That year when Elizabeth Coker met a drunk man and Audrey Turnah rescued her and was injured, it was Simon who asked Jerry Dank to bandage her wound, and later followed her to the police station to make a statement.

When the Turnah family moved out, they sold the old house, dismissed the servants, and only took Abel with them.

Although Simon was reluctant, he had to find another home.

Audrey Turnah never imagined that after five years, he would still be in the old house of Turnah family!

The fact that she came back from the dead required another explanation.

Simon couldn't help wiping away his tears.

"It's good to see that you are alive, it's good that you are alive..." He said with a trembling voice.

Audrey Turnah asked curiously.

"Abel, why are you still here?"

Simon glanced at Jerry Dank subconsciously.

"I, I..." he started to say.

"My friend who bought the house happened to invite him," Jerry Dank replied calmly.

"He has gone abroad, but Simon has stayed here to look after the house for him," Jerry Dank added.

Simon nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, the new owner treats me very well, but he is always abroad and never comes back all year round. Let me help him take care of the house..." He told Audrey.

Audrey Turnah suddenly realized.

"So that's how it is...'' she muttered.

"Can we go in and have a look?" Jerry Dank asked Simon.

"Yes, of course!" Simon replied.

Simon opened the door courteously.

"Mr. Dank, Miss. Audrey, come in quickly,'' he said casually and respectfully.

Audrey Turnah thought it was a coincidence that the person who bought the old house of the Turnah family unexpectedly invited Simon in by chance.

What made her feel even more strange was that in the past five years, the plants and trees in the garden of the Turnah family villa seemed to have not been touched much, and they were exactly the same as in memory.

Even the swing frame under the phoenix flower tree was still there, fluttering gently with the night wind.

Perhaps, firstly, because the owner had lived abroad for a long time, and secondly, because the housekeeper was Simon, the garden of this house had been kept as it was before, and had not changed.

Revisiting the old place, there was not much sense of drastic change, Audrey Turnah really felt lucky.

She was a little depressed at first, but seeing that the old house was still the same as before, she started to feel better for no reason.

"Miss, do you want to go inside and have a look?" Simon said enthusiastically.

Audrey Turnah thought for a while.

"It's better not to go,'' she replied.

After all, it was someone else's place inside, involving private space, and she was already very happy to be able to walk in the garden.

When they were leaving, Simon saw them out to the door, looked at Jerry Dank, then at Audrey Turnah, and seemed to be very emotional.

"Miss, come here often in the future,'' he said to Audrey.

"It's enough to see it once, and I don't need to come often,'' Audrey Turnah replied with a sly smile.

"Missy will come here if she wants to, here..." Simon started to say again.

He held back for a while.

"Anyway, no one lives here, and the new owner won't be back anytime soon,'' he added.

''Sure. Simon, take care of yourself. I will come to see you again when I have a chance,'' Audrey Turn ah replied.

She and Jerry Dank got back into the car, and the car drove a long way.

When he turned around, Simon was still standing outside the carved iron gate, waving at them.

Audrey Turnah felt warm in her heart, glanced sideways at the man who was focusing on driving, and said softly.

"Thank you for today."

Jerry Dank's brows and eyes were calm.

"It's a little effort,'' he replied.

"Who is that friend of yours?" Audrey Turnah asked him.

She couldn't help but ask, why did the person buy the old house of the Turnah family, but didn't live in it, and the layout of the garden inside basically remained the same?

Jerry Dank was silent for some seconds, and said without changing his face.

"You don't know friends in the business field,'' he eventually replied.

Audrey Turnah thought about it, Jerry Dank was now one of the best entrepreneurs in the country, and there were many wealthy friends who were not short of money in the business field.

It was not uncommon to buy a villa and not have the time to live in it.

When Jerry Dank sent her downstairs to her residence, Audrey Turnah thanked him and got off the car.

"Audrey!" Jerry Dank called her name suddenly, his voice was slightly low.

"Tomorrow, do you have any arrangements?" He asked.

Audrey Turnah was slightly startled, unexpectedly Jerry Dank suddenly ask her this question.

"If you're free, I'll show you around,'' he added.

Facing the girl's eyes, Jerry Dank said calmly.

"Take it as a reward for your medical treatment for me.''

After a pause, he continued.

"Bullen has changed a lot in the past five years,'' Jerry Dank said.

She was originally a pampered daughter, but now because of him, she came to Bullen from city alone, with no one to take care of her, and Leopold Demp was not around.

She must be homesick, otherwise, she wouldn't have red eyes just looking at the Turnah family villa.

These were Jerry Dank's thoughts.

Audrey Turnah came back this time and found out that Bullen had indeed changed a lot, she wanted to see the city for herselft, but Jerry Dank accompanying her around, felt a bit weird, and it might be embarrassing.
