Chapter 1107 (1/2)
”Locke, you can go back.” Half a month after the last incident, Eric has recovered and they have just returned from Brooklyn.
Locke's work went well. Eric didn't need to be followed most of the time, and he was able to go to dangerous neighborhoods to deal with problems.
Cheap store, Eric's new business, is expanding from Brooklyn to Queens, and it's not easy.
The most troublesome thing is safety. Eric needs to find out the rules of the street. Every community has its own rules. If you want to do business here, you have to follow the rules.
There is also the safety of employees and goods. Self theft is the biggest problem. Even if Eric is very careful, he still can't sleep.
Locke's life has been much better recently. He almost wanted to go to the street to borrow money, but now he has returned to a stable life.
Locke knew very well that if he went to the point of usury, he would easily go astray and become the person he had always despised.
”Boss, my wife wants to thank you at home. Her pasta is the best I have ever eaten If you like. ” Locke wanted to thank him.
”Of course, no problem. It happens that I have no plans for tonight.” Eric agreed to come down, and the same black skin made him feel close.
”Take my car and I'll get you back safely.” Locke didn't want to drive his luxury car to his neighborhood.
”I think I'll count you overtime.” Eric said jokingly.
Locke lives in Brooklyn, a relatively safe area, but only relatively.
”If your car shows up here and goes out after dinner, it's just spare parts.” Park the car on the side of the road, Locke said with a smile.
Eric is not familiar with everything around him. He squatted in the streets and lanes and occupied the gangs of abandoned parks and courts. He occasionally missed him.
”Come on.” Locke pinned his gun in his holster and took him home.
”This is my wife, Barbara. They are my children, my eldest Marceau and my second Hesse.”
”He's my boss, Mr Eric.”
After Locke's introduction, Eric looked strange and surprised and said, ”you never said that there are two beautiful princesses in my family.”
”Thank you, Mr. Eric.” Marceau said to him naturally.
Her younger sister, Hesse, looked a little shy. She stepped back to her sister's side, holding her arm in her hand, and secretly looked at Eric.
”This way, please.” Locke beckoned him to sit down in the living room.
This is a standard four bedroom, two floors, with separate living room, dining room, bathroom and so on, which is good in this community.
Locke goes to the kitchen to help his wife. The man who cooks is very rare, which deepens Eric's impression on him.
In addition, he also learned a lot from his conversation with Marceau.
For example, she is 18 years old and is about to go to New York University. Her tuition is a lot of money. There is also 15-year-old Hess, who attended the Brooklyn Public School where her sister attended.
This is a warm, simple and friendly ordinary family, ordinary to Eric heart envy, can not help but want to integrate into it.
”How about dinner?” After dinner, when Eric was sent back, the relationship between them seemed to be one step closer.
”Good Can I come again? ” Eric knows it's out of date, but he really wants to come back, just get together, eat, talk.
