The next morning.
Alfred finished his shower and stood in front of Vanessa coldly.
"You will stay in this apartment obediently, Vanessa, unless my revenge stops, otherwise, you will never escape my torture, or even to leave me!"
After Alfred left, Vanessa just laid on the bed in despair.
Vanessa could bear all the pain and torture. She made herself a bath and tried to make herself look happy.
Later, Vanessa called Georgia.
"Georgia, I left the hospital and returned to D City last night because of something. Annie is alone in S City's hospital now. What about you? Are you doing anything right now?"
Vanessa naturally wouldn't say that Alfred retaliated against her, and after she got on the phone, she started asking Georgia caringly.
Georgia just came to work at MU at this time. She had called Vanessa last night and no one had answered. Georgia was a little worried.
Georgia let go of her worries when she heard Vanessa say this.
"Vanessa, I have nothing to do. I have come to work in MU now, the doctor has allowed me to leave the hospital. You have returned to D City, is Annie feeling unhappy about that?"
Georgia would definitely not tell what happened to her in prison, which would make Vanessa worried.
Anyway, she is out of danger, and for the other things, Georgia would figure out a way herself.
"Georgia, both of us are in D City now. Annie is now awake. Let's find a way to transfer Annie back. Otherwise, Annie will definitely not be able to bear such a long separation."
Vanessa knew that she might need to be on call with Alfred now, and Georgia was going to work at MU. She really wanted Annie to return to D City.
Georgia obviously hoped that Annie would stay by her side, but she didn't know how to deal with that matter.
"Vanessa, I'll think of something and give a try."
Georgia thought the same in her heart, and she decided to work hard.
After hanging up, Georgia went to the laboratory to do experiments.
Anaya laughed sarcastically beside her.
"You have asked for leave all the time, Miss Lane, you are really our little God, no one can beat you, no one can scold you, you skip work every day, how can you be so shameless? Do you know that people have been mocking our team?"
Georgia knew that Anaya was deliberately irritating her.
Through many confrontations with Anaya, Georgia had understood that shutting up was the best way to deal with Anaya.
This person just wanted to irritate her, wanted to make her quarrel, Georgia could only remain silent.
Anaya was extremely dissatisfied, thinking that Rachel told her what happened to Georgia's friend Vanessa the day before yesterday, so she ridiculed again.
"Georgia, I heard that yesterday the porn video of your friend Vanessa spread all over the Internet, it had been seen by all guests of the groom at the wedding. Your friend is really open, that she had taken videos with a bunch of men and even put it on the wedding for everyone to watch, cheating on her husband, it's amazing..."
This mocking sentence instantly made Georgia raise her head and look at Anaya coldly. She didn't speak, but looked at the woman in front of her gloomily. After a long time, Georgia lowered her head again and started her experiment.
"Georgia, why don't you speak anymore, are you embarrassed?"
Anaya was still taunting. Aston just came in, he asked Anaya coldly.
"Anaya, I remember that you haven't finished the data that Ernie gave you. Are you too free? Then I will assign you a few more tasks!"
"Aston, I... I haven't finished my work yet, I'll leave immediately."
Anaya stomped her feet, she didn't want to make a fool of herself in front of Aston.
But Georgia was so cheeky that she didn't even refute, which made her look like she was on a one man show. She cursed bitterly in her heart, then turned around and left.
Anaya had always had an idea in her mind, she wanted to get experimental results, to then change her image in Aston's mind.
So, in addition to occasionally ridicule Georgia, Anaya did spend more time on research.
Although Anaya had no talent and only poor ability, she firmly believed that she could surpass Georgia.
Georgia also knew that her repeated requests for leave had brought bad impressions to the people around. Therefore, throughout the day, Georgia had been working hard in the laboratory and researching various experimental data.
Until the end of the day, everyone else left, but Georgia remained in the laboratory.
Naturally, Aston also stayed in the laboratory.
Both of them were doing their own experiments, occasionally exchanged information about each other's situation with the abnormal data, which would also make each other's thinking clearer.
By seven or eight in the evening, neither of them had finished to get off work.
Both Georgia and Aston decided to go home at nine o'clock in the evening, but Aston's cell phone rang during this quiet time.
It was the sound of a video call. Aston connected the phone and placed the phone in front of him.
"Aston, how are you doing? Grandma and I miss you very much."
A five or six year old boy appeared on the phone. His face was very delicate. When he saw Aston, the boy smiled very happily.
"Lucas, give your phone to your grandma."
The little boy nodded, and then a middle aged lady appeared in the video.
The middle aged lady smiled when she saw her son in the video.
"Son, even if you have left the Powell family, even if you don't want to inherit the Powell family, you must always contact your mother. Your father has cut off your relationship and doesn't want to see you. I'm still your mother. If I don't call you, you don't even make a call to me. I raised you for more than 20 years, so you treat your mother like this?"
Aston helplessly explained to his mother.
"Mom, I've been too busy recently at work, I didn't ignore you on purpose. Recently, the experiment has entered a breakthrough phase. I want to complete this experiment as soon as possible. I will come back to accompany you on vacation."
The middle aged lady was still dissatisfied, her eyes staring behind Aston.
Suddenly, the lady saw a woman in white coat, and her eyes lit up.
"Son, is that your colleague? Let me say hello to her."
The person the lady saw was Georgia. Georgia heard what the lady said to Aston, and also knew that Aston's mother noticed herself, which made Georgia feel a little embarrassed.
Aston felt helpless towards his mother.
"Mom, this is my colleague. She is doing experiments. Let's not disturb her."
The middle aged lady was not giving up.
"Son, this is your colleague, shouldn't I be polite and say hello to your colleague? Is your relationship at work so bad? Your colleague doesn't even want to say hello to your mother... Did you do something bad to her? Or she just doesn't like you..."
The words of the middle aged lady made Aston's face darken, and Georgia felt that she had been shot in the chest. Those words made her feel very awkward.
Before Aston said anything, his mother had already yelled out.
"Lady, I'm Aston's mother, may I meet you?"
Since she already said that, Georgia could only turn around reluctantly, and then walked to the phone.
Aston leaned his mobile phone on the lab bench, and Georgia was standing not far in front of the camera, and then gently bowed to say hello.
"Mrs Powell, hello, I'm Aston's colleague, my last name is Lane, you can call me Miss Lane."
The middle aged lady looked at the beautiful woman in front of her, and then at the laboratory, there were only the two of them doing experiments. When she thought that her son was a person who studied in the laboratory since he was a child, she was more and more excited.
She had asked her son to look for a wife for a few years, but he didn't find one. Was this woman her hope now?
As Aston's mother thought like this in her mind, she became more enthusiastic towards Georgia.
"Miss Lane, is my son too quiet? Is he not dealing well with relationships? Miss Lane, when I look at you, I think you are a smart person. Can you help me take care of my son? He is just slow witted."
"By the way, Miss Lane, do you have a boyfriend? What do you think of my son?"
The lady spoke a lot, Georgia couldn't help but flush.
Aston spoke coldly to his mother.
"Mom, what are you asking? This is my colleague, can you stop making trouble?"
The Aston that Georgia had seen before was a cold and indifferent person, but this was the first time she saw Aston so helpless.
When facing his mother, Aston was obviously filled with more breath of living, he was so helpless, but full of respect and love.
But Aston's mother was too enthusiastic, why did she feel that Aston's mother was trying to get the two of them together?
Georgia thought this in her heart, and she immediately explained.
"Madam, you have misunderstood. I already have a child. I am a mother."
When these words were spoken, Aston looked at Georgia in surprise.
The middle aged lady even showed a disappointed look. It seemed that it would take a while for her son to find someone.
"Okay, Miss Lane, you look so young and beautiful, I can't tell that you are already a mother, how old is your child?"
Aston's mother asked politely.
"Madam, I have a daughter who is five years old this year."
Georgia said, a gentle smile appeared on her face.
The middle aged lady laughed.
"Five years old? I also have a five year old child here. He is annoying every day. He is a naughty boy and mischievous all day long. He really gives me a headache. It would be great if I had a little princess, but It's just a pity, this one is a boy."
The middle aged lady smiled and suddenly, a boy's face squeezed himself into the camera.
"Grandma, what nonsense are you talking about? When have I been mischievous and disobedient?"
The boy's face was so delicate and lovely, Georgia immediately felt that the boy was very kind.
Inexplicably, she felt that the boy in front of her looked a little like her daughter Annie, and Georgia smiled at the boy.
Lucas saw the woman on the screen, and when he saw the woman smile at him, he also smiled.
"Hello, beauty, my name is Lucas, how do I call you?"
The middle aged lady patted Lucas on the head.
"Whenever you see a pretty lady you gotta talk to her. How old are you? You are too early to look for a wife. Look at your Aston. He is so old and still not looking for a girlfriend. You two should exchange your attitudes."
The middle aged lady said melancholy, Lucas just laughed mischievously.
Georgia answered Lucas.
"Lucas, hello, my name is Georgia, you can call me Georgia."
Lucas immediately said sweetly.
"Georgia, nice to meet you."
Georgia liked the boy very inexplicably, she and the boy exchanged a few more words, then left to continue the experiment.
The middle aged lady continued to sigh in the camera.
"Son, you have left the Powell family, why are you trying to be all alone? If you don't find a wife before you are thirty, and let me have a grandson, I will jump off the building..."
The middle aged lady exaggerated, Aston was even more casual.
"Mom, isn't Lucas cute, you just treat him as a grandson."
"Of course I treat Lucas as a grandson, but, I want to hold your child, I want to watch you get married and have children, what's the matter? Is this request too much?"
The middle aged lady snapped, and Aston was just helplessly silent.
Aston's mother nagged for a long time before they hung up the call.
By this time it was almost nine o'clock, Georgia had already reached the time that she decided to leave work, so she began to pack up her things.
Aston walked up to Georgia apologetically.
"Georgia, my mom is like that, she is warm to everyone, and she always does things regardless of the occasion. I hope you don't mind."
Georgia shook her head.
"It's okay. She looks very straightforward. I haven't felt affected by anything."
Aston felt relieved, and then he spoke to Georgia.
"Wait a minute, I'll take you home after I finish packing things. It's so late. Don't say you want to go home alone."
Georgia nodded.
"Sorry for troubling you."
However, when Aston's car was at gate of Georgia's residence community, as soon as Georgia got off, she saw Selena standing in front of the gate.
With a bad feeling in her heart, Georgia got out of the car and said goodbye to Aston, and then immediately came to Selena.
"Miss Holland, did something happen?"
Selena looked at Georgia, and sighed.
"Miss Lane, something happened to Travis, he hurt a lot of people today."
Georgia turned pale instantly, she grabbed Selena's hand tightly.
"What has really happened?"
