This is the construction site of the doomsday shelter. The location is very secret, because there are no roads in the forest. Both the construction equipment and many workers are directly transported by helicopter, and a non-disclosure agreement is signed in advance.
Except for a few core leaders of the project, most workers don't know who the employer behind the building is.
Many people even speculate that this may be a secret base built by the Australian military.
Because the engineering construction is relatively complicated, it will take at least a year for the shelter to be completed.
The couple lingered on the construction site for half a day in a low-key manner, and went down to the deepest part of the ground to visit it in person, and finally left together by helicopter.
"There is a copper mine about 30 miles south of our land, which is on the verge of closure. My aunt is discussing the acquisition with them recently. As long as we buy the copper mine, our land can be extended further south. an area."
The helicopter landed directly at the Johnston mansion outside Melbourne.
After the couple got off the plane, Janet was still talking about the land expansion in Tasmania: "However, because the news of our land purchase has been exposed in the past two years, although I don't understand what you want to do, there is still Many people follow suit to buy land in Tasmania, which is very troublesome, and the land price in Tasmania has obviously increased a lot.”
Simon didn't care too much, and said with a smile: "When they find out that the land in Tasmania is actually useless, they will definitely withdraw slowly."
Janet thought for a while, and nodded in approval.
Simon has accumulated the largest private wealth in the world in just a few years, and no matter what he does now, it will cause a wave of followers.
However, there is always a time when people calm down.
Moreover, apart from Simon, probably not many people in this world have enough spare cash to just buy a piece of land and put it there without any output.
After a long time, following the trend will naturally fade away.
It was evening.
The two entered the mansion, and dinner was already being prepared in the villa.
Janet's parents were very happy when Simon and his wife rushed back to Australia suddenly, and hoped that they would do this often in the future.
Raymond Johnston hadn't gotten off work yet, and Janet ran to help her mother prepare dinner together, but Simon didn't join in the fun, and turned into a living room in the villa.
Just after entering the door, I was surprised to find that Veronica Johnston was sitting on the sofa casually flipping through a newspaper, and the TV in the living room was also turned on.
Even though it has been so long, Veronica couldn't help being nervous when she saw Simon suddenly, but she quickly relaxed her tone, looked over and said softly: "I just came back from Perth, I heard that you and Jenny Come to Australia."
Simon nodded, walked over, sat down on the single sofa next to Veronica, picked up the remote control on the coffee table, and switched TV channels aimlessly.
After Veronica greeted Simon, her eyes continued to fall on the newspaper in front of her, but her relaxed back could not help but straighten slightly, and she even relaxed her breathing.
Seems worried about what's going to happen.
Ready to run away anytime.
After a long silence, Simon still didn't say a word, so Veronica had to find a topic and asked softly, "Well, how long do you and Jenny plan to stay here?"
"I'm going back tomorrow."
"Oh."
Silence again.
He really wanted to get up and walk away, but he knew that he probably didn't want her to get up, so he continued to sit.
Wanting to find another topic to talk about a few more words, his thoughts turned around, but he realized that no matter what he said, he might only return a few words coldly.
Suddenly feel a little wronged.
A strong grievance that cannot be suppressed.
I was so wronged that I couldn't help but shed tears. I lowered my head, and the tears fell directly on the newspaper.
After holding back for a moment, he still sobbed.
Then, the voice sounded again, still coldly: "Don't cry."
This time it didn't stop.
I cry mine, it's none of your business.
Then he completely ignored it, covered his face, let go of his voice a little, and started to choke.
Simon looked at the crying woman next to him, and then at the direction of the door, his scalp felt a little numb.
After a moment of hesitation, Simon got up and walked over to lock the living room door.
Returning to the seat just now, I finally relaxed a little.
Patiently accompany the crying woman.
Veronica's crying did not ease at all. She probably sensed the movement around her and felt the figure on the single sofa beside her. The woman still covered her face, but raised her calf and kicked towards Simon.
a bit.
Twice.
Three times.
Simon endured it for a moment, then reached out and pressed it.
Veronica shook off the high heels held down by Simon, barefoot, and continued to kick over.
Simon didn't bother to stop this time, and let the woman kick
Finally, Veronica was tired from crying and kicking, curled up on the sofa, hugged her legs, her face was buried in her arms, her hair was disheveled, she wore high heels on one foot, and the other was bare. Embarrassed.
I don't know how long it took.
The sky was completely dark, and there were faint voices in the corridor. Simon realized that things seemed to be more difficult, and couldn't help but said: "Clean up, we're going to have dinner."
Veronica was unmoved.
A pair of regardless of self-defeating to look like.
Simon didn't dare to stay in the room any longer, so he turned off the TV and walked out of the living room.
As soon as the door was closed, Janet came from the other side of the corridor: "Dinner is ready, by the way, is my aunt here too?"
Simon embraced Janet, who was about to walk towards the door of the living room, and said, "No, I was watching TV by myself just now, and your aunt should be in another room."
"Oh," Janet said without doubting him, "then you go to the restaurant first, and I'll call my aunt."
"I'll accompany you."
As Simon said, he and Janet searched in other rooms in the corridor, but there was no result, so they went upstairs again
After looking at Veronica's bedroom for the last time, but still no one was found, Simon said, "Your aunt probably left early."
Janet frowned, and said, "The servant said he didn't see my aunt leave."
"That may be outside the villa, let's go down first."
Janet was held by Simon's waist, but she didn't refuse, and the two came downstairs together.
Passing by the living room just now, Janet glanced at the door, her eyes flickered, but she still didn't go to check, and came to the dining room with Simon.
Then I saw Veronica was already sitting in the dining room.
Still looking as cold as ice, he and Simon nodded slightly, then lowered their heads and fiddled with the tableware in front of them.
Raymond Johnston has also rushed back. The family has long been accustomed to Veronica's appearance, otherwise Janet would not often call him "Iceberg", so he is not suspected.
After dinner, Veronica was the first to leave the restaurant.
Janet's mother, Tracy Johnston, watched her sister-in-law leave, and then said to Raymond, "Winnie seems to have cried?"
During the meal, Raymond Johnston had been discussing with Simon the two acquisitions that Westeros Corporation was advancing. Hearing what his wife said, he looked at the direction in which his little sister was leaving, and frowned, "What's the matter?" ?”
"I don't know either. Didn't she just come back from Perth today? Did something happen over there?"
The old man frowned even tighter: "How can things at work make her cry?"
"Have you been bullied?"
The old man shook his head: "How is it possible, whoever dares to bully her, it's not bad for her to bully others."
Listening to her parents' conversation, Janet suddenly said, "I'll talk to my aunt later."
Raymond Johnston nodded, and said again: "Well, why don't you stay a few more days and talk to your aunt?"
Janet hugged Simon's arm and slapped the man, saying: "We have been away from the United States for two weeks, there are a lot of things over there, we can't delay any longer."
Raymond Johnston didn't force it, but couldn't help but glanced aside at his daughter and son-in-law, and said, "You two, what happened to the child?"
When Janet heard this topic, her face collapsed, she let go of Simon's arm, and said nothing.
Simon also showed a wry smile, and shook his head slightly: "There has been no movement."
Trish Johnston said with concern: "Why don't you go to the medical center at home for another checkup tomorrow?"
Janet said to her mother: "Simon and I have discussed it. In a few months, if you still can't conceive, you can try IVF."
Trish Johnston said: "Isn't it safe for test-tube babies?"
It has been more than ten years since the first test-tube baby was born in 1978, and the child at that time also grew up healthily.However, even Simon, who is a latecomer, has always been concerned about this, not to mention many ordinary people with traditional ideas.
However, things have been delayed until now, and we can only try.
Better than never having kids all the time.
Although Simon was not in a hurry, Janet couldn't wait any longer.
The couple had already contacted the 'father of test-tube babies' Robert Edwards during their trip to Europe before, and decided to wait a few more months until the recent series of affairs of the Westeros company were completed. If Janet's Before the stomach moves, take the test tube baby plan.
Chapter 397 The Housekeeper's Business Plan (Revised)
After dinner, I chatted with Janet's parents about some recent events. After nine o'clock, neither Simon nor his wife went back to their nearby villas, but directly stayed in the mansion.
Upstairs in the bedroom, Simon came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, and saw Janet, who had already changed into her pajamas, holding a pillow in her arms, standing by the bed and staring at him intently, saying, "I'll sleep with my aunt tonight. "
Simon paused for a moment, and quickly continued to wipe his wet hair with a towel. He nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, I've been squeezed by you for so long, and I happened to have a night's rest."
Janet didn't move, still staring at Simon steadfastly.
Simon pulled the towel on his head slightly forward as if nothing had happened, and continued to wipe it in front of his eyes.
Janet wrinkled her nose. When she saw the man approaching her and hugged her, she subconsciously followed her. Because of the pillow in the middle, she leaned her face forward and was kissed cooperatively by him.
"Good night."
"OK, good night."
After agreeing to this, the bottom of my heart was even more distressed.
.
Really let me go to accompany my aunt.
Even if you lie to me.
Or, just mess around and pin him on the bed, and I'll pretend I don't know anything.
After Simon said good night, he let go of Janet and hung up the towel. Seeing that she hadn't moved, he didn't say anything. He just reached out and took the pillow from the woman's arms and threw it on the big bed. The woman was also thrown on the big bed, and then jumped on it.
However, more than an hour later, Janet still got rid of the embrace of the man who had already fallen asleep, and quietly left their bedroom.
The next day is Sunday, August 2rd.
Since leaving Los Angeles on January 1, the couple has been resting for two weeks.
In the cabin of the Boeing 767, after the plane took off, Simon had been sitting in the study in the front cabin looking through the documents accumulated during this period. Janet sat opposite her and looked at her husband with her chin propped up, with various emotions floating in her bright eyes.
Simon actually knew about Janet leaving quietly last night.
Just don't know what Veronica and Janet said.
Now women don't talk, and Simon doesn't take the initiative to pick up a certain topic.
I really don't know how to deal with it.
On the other side of the desk, Janet looked at her man for a long time, and finally sighed softly, not understanding what happened in the bottom of her heart.
My aunt was clearly being bullied, but she still turned towards him.
It turned out to be the same as myself.
Is it just because of last time?
Janet couldn't help touching her wrist.
what.
