Chapter 133 - Speed Elevator (2/2)
Kris wondered how high his bill was for her to do this all day. Once they got to the ground floor, Ben was surprised yet again to see these two down here. Lena clasp her hand around Kris' arms and dragged him out of the elevator. ”I need to go back and get my slipper.”
She went back to the spot where it dropped but it was gone. Ben walked over. ”The other man picked it up and he went up the elevator already.”
”Oh.. ok. Thanks.” Lena replied.
She dragged Kris back to the speed elevator. He was her keycard, so he was important. She held Kris's hand and forced his finger to press the button. The elevator door opened. ”This is fun! It's like you are my captive!”
Kris smiled. Just before, this woman was saying she was being kidnapped. They got into the elevator again and Lena did the same thing. She faced the window and looked out.
”Have you never been on a rollercoaster?” Kris asked.
”No.” In both of her lives, she had never gone on a rollercoaster. Shen Qian was too busy to ever go out and have fun or it just costs too much. For Lena, she was too proud to go to those places. It was always crowded and the people annoyed her. She would have to mingle with all type of weirdos. ”Have you?”
”No.” Kris replied. ”I would never do something so childish.” In truth, he had no childhood. Not a good one. He spent most of his childhood in a blood bath.
”Oh... so I guess I won't invite you when I go then. It's fine... when Gary is better, I'll take him.”
Lena sent a text message to Gary that they should go have fun before they die young. Kris looked over her shoulder and saw the text message. The elevator door opened and Lena hopped off. Keso was outside the door waiting for them. He wondered why it took them forever to reach up here. Did they ride the elevator in slow mode?
Kris walked out after her. ”I am your teacher, so I would need to go with you. You are a kid who needs a chaperone.”
”That's not good. We would be an odd number. Most rides are even.”
Kris scanned his eye and fingerprint on the door and it opened. The door opened and Kris entered first. ”Keso can go with us.”
”You should invite Hugh. I have not met him yet.” Lena entered his penthouse and Keso followed inside.
”I told you already. You'll never meet him.”
Lena walked in further inside the penthouse to observe it. She suddenly stopped her footsteps. ”This is your place?”
Kris came and stood next to her and look at his empty living room. ”Yeah.”
”You have... nothing. No furniture at all.”
”I only need a bed.”
The living area was completely empty except the curtains on the window. The dining room had nothing too. The kitchen only has three stools and Lena only saw three cups.
”You live in the prettiest penthouse and...” Lena shook her head. ”Tsk... such a waste of beauty.”
