Chapter 58: The Bloody Morning
The morning light shines through the mist on the Thames and into the bedroom through the gauzy curtains.
Kate, who was woken up by the bedside alarm clock, opened her eyes, only to feel a dull and dull pain in her head.
Lifted the quilt and sat up to find water to drink, but unexpectedly found that she actually slept in clothes last night, all of which puzzled her.
I don't have any memories of last night in my head at all, I just remember that after breaking up with Mike Sheen, I went to a bar by myself, and then I seemed to be drunk, and what happened after this is completely unremembered.
There is a glass of water on the bedside table that has lost its temperature, it seems that it was placed here last night, probably because she is worried that she will be thirsty at night and can't get up to find water to drink, but who would do these things so intimately?
Kate rubbed her swollen temples, and that's when she felt really thirsty.
Picking up the glass of water on the bedside table, I found that there was a note under the cup, on which was scribbled with the following line of writing:
If you wake up in the morning and find yourself back in your bedroom with a man lying in the living room outside the door, don't be surprised!
The signature is Jude Locke.
Kate took the note and suddenly laughed, she had already guessed who the man in the living room was.
She stepped barefoot on the soft carpet, ran over and opened the door cheerfully, and sure enough, she saw a guy lying on the sofa in the living room, covered with a blanket, sleeping soundly.
"Good morning!"
Kate mischievously pulls back the curtains, letting the sunlight shine directly on Jude's face.
Jude raised his hand to cover it, and opened his sleepy eyes to take a look at the situation.
"Are you awake?"
He yawned and sat up from the couch, tossing the blanket aside.
"It's not a weekend, and you're going to the crew, right?"
"Oh, shit!" Jude raised his hand and looked at his watch, quickly lowered his head to find his shoes, "You're right, I'm going to be late." ”
Saying that, I put on my coat and hurried out of the house.
Kate realized that the joke had gone too far, and she couldn't think of Jude leaving like that.
"But you haven't washed up and eaten breakfast yet."
"Breakfast can be solved on the way, as for washing...... Where is the bathroom at home? ”
As soon as Kate pointed to the door next to her bedroom, Jude rushed in impatiently, apparently in a hurry to settle last night's inventory.
At this time, Kate suddenly remembered something.
Oops, the underwear that I washed myself is still inside!
"Locke?" She tried to shout into the bathroom, but she heard the sound of falling water, and she blushed and quickly covered her mouth.
"Are you calling me?" Jude's voice came from within.
"No, you must have misheard." Kate immediately denied it.
After a burst of toilet flushing, Jude stepped out with a relieved expression.
"I'm alright, do you want to use it again?" He pointed behind him.
Kate quickly shook her head, and by the way, she looked away from Jude's face, but her cheeks became hotter and hotter.
"Are you uncomfortable?" Jude noticed Kate's abnormality, but he didn't associate it with the sexy lingerie in the bathroom, thinking that the after-effects of her drunkenness had not been completely eliminated.
"No, I'm fine." Kate subconsciously avoided Jude's concerned eyes, and her heart was pounding.
"Are you sure? If nothing is wrong, I'll go first. Jude opened the door and suddenly turned his head to add, "Don't drink so much in the future, if you have something unhappy, you can come to me." ”
Kate nodded, and reluctantly sent Jude to the elevator.
The elevator doors open and Jude is about to step inside, when Kate suddenly stops him.
"Locke, you haven't told me what happened last night?"
"You were drunk at the bar, and the police found my number from your phone and told me to go and collect someone, and the good news is that they didn't let me post bail again this time."
Jude winked at Kate and turned into the elevator.
Kate followed, insisting on sending Jude downstairs in order to know more about what had happened.
Just as the two of them were taking the elevator downstairs, a blue Lotus sedan stopped on the side of the driveway opposite the apartment building.
Pooh Jones rolled down the window and rubbed his hands to keep warm while making a bet with Jason Statham next to him that Jude would come out of here later.
"How can you track someone, it's an invasion of privacy." Jason Statham stared at his friend with wide eyes, and he believed it when the other party had just said that he was going to take him to meet a friend.
"Not so excited, I don't have the dog's nose of a London reporter, I personally drove Locke here last night, and there was a drunken chick with Locke, guess they ......"
Pooh Jones was interrupted by Jason Statham before he could finish his sentence.
"It's not something I need to care about, and now while Locke hasn't come down yet, we'll leave right away."
"Don't worry, I found this location on purpose, and it will definitely not be discovered by that side." Pooh Jones looked like he was waiting to see a good show, and he didn't plan to leave at all.
Jason Statham couldn't help him, so he simply turned his head to the side and didn't care about this guy anymore.
Pooh Jones suddenly reached out and grabbed Jason Statham's arm and shook it vigorously.
"Look, they're out!"
Jason Statham finally turned his head without holding back his curiosity, just in time to see Jude and Kate walking out together, although the two did not hold hands, their demeanor was unusually intimate.
For a beauty like Kate, of course, Jason Statham can't forget it so quickly, at that time he saw that the relationship between the two was not ordinary, but he didn't expect it to develop so quickly.
Jude stopped at the door of the apartment building and reached out to help Ketra flip his turtleneck up and around his neck to keep him warm.
"That's it, it's cold outside, you'll catch a cold if you stay long."
Kate suddenly reached out and hugged Jude's neck and whispered in his ear, "Thank you!" ”
Jude hesitated, but also hugged Kate tightly.
It took more than a minute for the two to separate.
While Kate lowered her hands from Jude's neck, she also helped him straighten his collar by the way, with the gentle gesture of a virtuous wife.
Jude held her hand and kissed her lightly on the forehead, and then reluctantly parted.
Kate watched Jude turn and walk down the steps, and a familiar figure with a peaked cap suddenly broke into view, lowered his head and hands in his coat pockets, and walked straight towards Jude.
"Locke!" Kate suddenly shouted, but unfortunately it was too late.
The guy grabbed Jude by the collar and punched him in the face without saying anything, revealing an angry and twisted face under the cap, but it was Mike Sheen, who had just broken up with Kate yesterday.
