It's another busy day.

The reserved smile on Bennett's face vanished the moment he got into the car, replaced by a deep exhaustion, physical, and mental.

His wife made a phone call to his office today, to the effect that he had not returned to see his wife's father during this time, which made his wife think that they were being snubbed and treated as they should be.

God is above, everyone knows who is the stronger side in the end, but Bennett can only bear it silently.

The two had a fight—mostly because Bennett listened to his wife's complaints, then apologized and put up with it.

Promotion within a bank is very demanding, and it is not as simple as having someone to appreciate and be capable, especially for an important position such as the credit department.

In such a position, a person can have a lot of small faults, and they may not have much ability, but they must have two requirements of a certain rule that seems to some people to be a bit funny, but is the default of society.

First, be cautious.

Second, it has assumed complete social responsibility.

The first one is very easy to understand, don't do things that are too risky, in fact, this is not a complete one, the bank has a special risk assessment department, and they will tell the superiors that their different decisions will bring those foreseeable and unforeseeable consequences.

The second article is relatively difficult to understand literally, but its core is very simple, that is, there is a complete family, including their own family, and a family that catches up the next level, and complete social relations.

Federal sociologists, a number of criminal research institutes, through the study of various cases over the years, have come to a conclusion.

A person with stable family ties as an adult is significantly less likely to commit crime than those with no family ties, no marriage, no children, and no social interaction.

Marriage and family is a kind of social responsibility, in a relatively mild and acceptable way, it is a person's responsibility, and people will restrain themselves when they have responsibility.

In fact, this is a kind of shackle given to the individual by society in the process of development and evolution, and it is also the shackle that is most suitable for modern civilized society, which will make a person trapped in an invisible net and unable to struggle, and finally become a part of this net.

Bennett didn't plan to have too many conflicts with that woman in a short period of time, and he saw his visit to Sabine City as a turning point in his life, and when he replaced Joe Gleeman, he would consider divorcing his wife.

He doesn't have much property anyway, and it doesn't matter if he gives it all to the other party, and he can start a new life from then on.

As soon as he thought of this, his spirits lifted a little.

As the car came out of the underground garage, several pigeons parked on the sidewalkside dumpsters fluttered their wings and flew into the sky.

There are fewer and fewer birds in the city, and it is difficult for them to run into people who actively feed them, and they have to look around for food that is unlikely to come out in the cold winter.

This cold winter not only brought cold to people, but also made the animals feel tormented.

Bennett's car slowly parked in the parking lot across from the strip club, wearing a trench coat with a stand-up collar and a wide-brimmed hat with a low brim, and no one noticed him, let alone a person who entered a strip bar.

He had a very wonderful experience here yesterday, and when he went back he remembered everything from the past, and it turned out to be very sad.

He found that he couldn't remember his girlfriend for the first time, and the face that had appeared in his dreams every day had faded and blurred under the ravages of the ruthless bastard of the years.

The unforgettable face in his memory that he will never forget in his life was so blurry that he felt distressed again.

He once really thought that this love would never fade in his life, but it was obvious that he couldn't.

Until...... The girl's face gradually replaced that face, and he didn't know if this was what he remembered, or if the two of them were really imaginary.

The conflict in the family, the secret fight in the unit, he shouldn't have patronized here one after another, but he instinctively wanted to meet that girl.

After showing the VIP card, he ordered the girl again in the VIP area, and the girl changed her outfit today, and it was a ...... Pink dress with some small yellow flowers on it.

The first moment he saw the girl, Bennett's spirit was in a trance, and he suddenly recalled a fragment in a certain period of time in the past, it was a sunny day in late spring and early summer, and he chased the wind in his memory, and the wind chased a girl, and there was only joy in his heart......

Happy times were always short-lived, and a contented Bennett took out his wallet and counted out twenty dollars from it, and then he paused and counted out ten more dollars, a total of thirty dollars, which he put into the girl's hand.

In fact, he can give more to the girl, and he knows in the deepest part of his heart that this is just a pleasure of trading for money, but whether it is based on his pursuit of some false illusion, or he doesn't want the girl to become greedy because of his pity, he is restraining himself to give more money.

Just as he put the money in the girl's hand, he was stunned for a moment, and he noticed the bracelet on the girl's wrist.

It was a very old silver bracelet, and it was heavily blackened in places, but Bennett could tell where it came from at a glance.

He grabbed the girl's wrist, but unexpectedly, the girl broke free.

The girl's expression was not as rich as before, and at this time she was a little indifferent and stuffed the money into her chest, "Sorry, sir, the service is over." ”

She was the same one second and the second she was the next, and such a rapid change was like a touch of cold water poured on Bennett's head.

Yes, she has already completed one of her services, and according to the regulations, she can leave.

But Bennett was a little anxious at this time, this bracelet and the bracelet in his memory overlapped infinitely, it was the first time in his life that he spent all his change for a girl to buy, that bracelet contained the most beautiful and pure feelings he had ever had!

He still remembers that on the back of the second four-leaf clover of the bracelet, there will be two initials of his name, which are the abbreviations of the names of him and his first love.

"I'm sorry, I scared you......," Bennett explained, his eyes still fixed on the bracelet he increasingly thought he had bought for someone else, "where did you get your bracelet?"

The girl shook her head, "That's none of your business, sir. ”

She began to pack her things, in fact, there was nothing to pack, seeing that the girl was about to leave, Bennett took out several twenty dollar bills from her wallet with some excitement, "Give me another job!"

The girl glanced at Bennett a few more times, and she snatched the money and put it away, "If you can't, I won't return it to you." ”

Bennett sat back on the couch, he nodded, the girl would not leave immediately at this time, he also calmed down a little, "No problem, but you have to answer my question, because I am your ......"

The girl rolled her eyes and began a new job, and soon Bennett figured out the origin of the bracelet, which was given to her by the girl's mother, and he saw the initials of the two names.

His calm heart became a little excited again, and the many conflicts in the family made him extremely nostalgic for the initial feeling without any impurities, which almost became a sacred yearning in his heart!

But soon the girl told him a fact that he had never wanted to know in his life.

"Do you know my mother?", the girl lit a cigarette after finishing her second job.

Bennett nodded a little awkwardly, "Your mother and I used to be good friends. ”

The girl smiled nonchalantly, an expression that annoyed Bennett, "I'm not kidding, I really know your mother." ”

The girl raised her eyebrows and nodded, "Yes, at least half of the ten men you meet in my neighborhood will say that......", she seemed to have a good sense of humor, but what she said was not very funny, "and they must know my mother better than you." ”

The silence lasted for a long time, and Bennett suddenly said something he shouldn't have said, "You shouldn't do this!"

"You look down on me......", the girl threw the remaining cigarette butts on the ground, and she began to pack her things, "I know, look at the trench coat you wear, how much does it cost? three hundred, five hundred, or one thousand?"

"Eight hundred and eighty pieces. Bennett replied softly.

There was more disdain and mockery on the girl's face, "Eight hundred and eighty dollars, sir, do you know how many I have to gossip...... Can you make all that money?", she spat out, her face feeling a little more hateful, and her emotions affected her way of packing up.

She thumped as she shoved those things into her bag, "I believe this is just one of many items in your closet, why are you asking me for that one?"

The girl looked up at him, "You think I like to slap you...... Isn't it?", she raised her middle finger, scolded her female cousin, and slammed the door.

Before Bennett realized that what he was saying was actually more excessive than some of the things he had done, a strong man walked in, and he looked at Bennett sitting on the couch and smiled not easily.

"Sir, please respect everyone, I don't want to be rude, I'm sure you don't want to get hurt either, and we won't see each other again, right?"

Bennett had insomnia that night, and he fell asleep late, and he had a very strange dream, and that vague memory was overlapping with another memory, in which he experienced a lot, and he was extremely tired.

When he opened his eyes after dawn, he made a decision that he was going to change the girl.
