Autumn and September are the beginning of the school season for American students.

Although most of her husband's presidential election was consumed by her husband's presidential election, as a mother, Nina returned to her three children when school started.

She personally sent all the children to school before college, and this year was no exception.

It didn't take long for Evan, Audrey, Virginia and others in Los Angeles to start school one after another.

Audrey's school, Art Center School of Design, is in Pasadena like Caltech. For ease (mainly to continue the two-person world), Evan re-identified a property in San Marino, next to Pasadena. As for the original "dream" I plan to keep it. First, he lived for a long time, and some feelings were in it, and secondly, it was the place where he and Audrey fell in love, which had a lot of commemorative significance.

Speaking of which, the house was originally rented, and after that night, Evan bought it as quickly as he could, paying a premium of at least 10%.

However, this money Evan is willing.

Evan and Audrey's new home is at 1816 California Avenue in San Marino, on the same street as Caltech, a kilometer west of the university's main entrance.

On Sunday, September 19, the day before Caltech started, Evan and Audrey moved into their new home.

In order to celebrate the housewarming, Evan held a small party at home that day, and there were not many people invited to celebrate together, all of whom were friends of both Evan and Audrey.

In order to limit the scale, Evan didn't let those people in his own company come.

Only Carl is an exception.

In addition to this, those who were fortunate enough to be invited were Evan's partner at school, Dr. Layton, a friend Evan made at school, Orville and Rick, who co-founded the Plane Walker House Society, and Evan and Audrey's common classmate, Kailoll.

Of course, Evan didn't forget about Virginia.

On the day of the party, Evan and Audrey did not prepare a big meal, but made a buffet-style open-air barbecue.

This can save a lot of effort.

Orville and Leiden were the first to arrive, as their current residences are both in San Marino, which is the closest.

Then there was Rick, who was "experiencing life" and was driving a new cheap car from General Motors, which had just been launched.

He didn't come alone, and when his car was parked in front of the villa, a female companion sat in his passenger seat.

There are guests, and as the host, Evan naturally needs to go out to greet them.

"Hi Rick, I'm glad you came. At the gate, Evan and Rick shook hands, hugged each other, and patted each other on the back to show intimacy, "It's like a new car, and it looks like you're doing a good job at the Federal Bank of California." ”

"How could I have declined your invitation, Evan!" Rick laughed, "However, it seems that you are not going to cook for yourself today, which is a pity." ”

As he said this, Rick deliberately glanced at the barbecue tools placed in the yard.

"I think the main purpose of a party is to talk with friends and build relationships rather than food. Evan explained casually, then smiled at his female companion standing next to Rick, "What do you think, beautiful young lady?"

The woman, who was not an ordinary person at first glance, smiled lightly and said, "What the gentleman said is good. ”

Evan held out his hand to her and said, "Thank you." ”

"Rick, don't you want to introduce me?"

Before Rick could speak, the woman reached out and shook Evan gently, saying, "My name is Lilian, Lilian Schulaire, and it's a pleasure to meet you." I'm a friend of Rick's, and I hope my presence doesn't upset you. ”

"My name is Evan Warren, and Rick's friend is my friend, welcome. After introducing himself, Evan looked at Rick with a smirk, as if asking in his eyes, "Are you just friends?"

Rick understood and added, "My girlfriend." ”

Lillian acquiesced to Rick's claims.

Evan let out an oh and led the two into the courtyard.

Although Evan only found out about Rick's girlfriend not long after he worked, he didn't have any superfluous thoughts.

Is this girlfriend the true love of Rick's own acquaintance, or is it the marriage partner arranged by the Taft family?

None of this has anything to do with Evan.

Evan was only slightly interested in one of them.

Miss Lillian seems to be a little more mature than Rick.

Is it a sibling relationship?

After that, it wasn't long before Carl and Cairol arrived, leaving Evan's sister Virginia to be nowhere to be seen.

Just as Evan was about to make a phone call to ask, the sound of a car honking entered the tree-walled yard.

Evan, who was handling the barbecue ingredients, immediately paused his movements and said to Audrey, "It should be Virginia's arrival, I'll go for a while." ”

After wiping his hands, Evan came to the entrance of the courtyard.

Just as he thought, Evan saw the car that belonged to Virginia, and Virginia who was standing next to the car and was about to close the door.

Just as Evan was about to say hello, he saw someone else step out of another door.

"Virginia......" Evan, who was about to criticize his sister, didn't say anything at this time, but looked at the man in surprise: "Linda, are you here too?"

Linda is wearing a plain white dress, with no makeup on her face, but she has a bright and moving beautiful temperament. Hearing Evan, who she hadn't seen for a long time, ask like this, she asked with a smile, "What, don't you welcome me here?"

Evan sneered, "Of course not. ”

"In that case, then you're welcome. ”

With that, Linda unceremoniously walked past Evan and walked into the courtyard by herself, as if the mistress was coming home.

Evan looked at Linda's back in a daze, and after reacting, he looked at his sister puzzled: "Virginia, why did you bring Linda too?"

Virginia glared at him back, "What, can't I bring Linda?"

"It's not ......," Evan froze, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Didn't Linda basically stop meeting Audrey, and how did she change her attention today?

Seeing that Evan had nothing to say, Virginia was full of doubts at the same time, and after hesitating for a moment, she said, "It was Linda who came by herself, but I didn't bring her here on purpose." ”

"I guess she's not dead yet, so you'd better think about how to fix it!"

After saying that, ignoring the helpless Evan, Virginia followed in Linda's footsteps.

Evan returned to his post, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw several girls sitting around, talking and laughing. Linda was among them, and she didn't behave abnormally at all. The same is true when talking to the hostess Audrey.

Audrey knew Linda, at Virginia's coming-of-age birthday party, but for the reason Linda deliberately avoided it, she knew little about her.

Seeing Linda again today, Audrey didn't feel anything strange at first, and even felt full of joy. However, when she found that although Linda was actively involved in the communication of the girls' circle, her eyes skimmed to Evan from time to time, the sensitive Audrey immediately frowned.

She seems to have known Evan since she was a child......

Don't......

Audrey bit her lip. 8)
