Memories Of The Night Chapter 109: Chapter 109: Gotten Back Her Ordinary Life

After leaving the airport, Marcellus drives Katrina home.

The night before, Katrina didn't dare close her eyes and get some rest, which made her feel a little tired now.

Marcellus knows that Katrina has been sitting for hours on the plane and that she hasn't had a good rest. All he wants to do now is to take her home and let her rest after coming home from such a long journey.

After she has rested, he will have more time to see her. There's no hurry to spend time with her now.

When they arrive at Katrina's home, Marcellus and Farrah leave immediately without delay.

Back in her own warm home, Katrina simply feels relaxed and at peace.

Farrah is right. The room has been empty for two months, and a thin layer of dust now covers the furniture.

When Katrina sees how dirty the house is, she cleans her room before wiping the dust off the floor and all the furniture. Afterward, she changes the bedsheets into clean sheets and covers. She misses the feeling of lying alone in her cot.

Katrina is a little tired after cleaning for so long.

She takes a shower in the bathroom, changes into a clean nightgown, and falls onto her soft and newly-changed bed. It feels very nice.

Katrina's home is decorated warmly. It's not big, but she's taken good care of it.

The walls are covered with beautiful wallpaper, the mattress is thick and soft, and the floor is covered with an irregularly shaped carpet. On the carpet, there's a small table and a cus.h.i.+on where she can sit and read under the sunlight that comes through the window.

Her small one-bedroom apartment isn't as big as the rooms in Aaron's villa. The furnis.h.i.+ngs in her home are all simple and affordable items that she bought online. All her furniture probably isn't worth as much as the crystal ashtrays that Aaron puts casually in his living room. Even though Aaron's villa is luxurious, she likes her small and warm home a lot better.

Only after coming back home does Katrina feel safe in her own territory.

She can freely indulge herself. She can sleep until she wakes up naturally, without fear of being disturbed. She can sit cross-legged on the sofa with her hair down and read and drink tea without caring about her image.

She cherishes this sense of freedom.

Katrina lies on her cot and pulls out a book at her bedside to read.

After a few minutes, she feels too sleepy to keep her eyes open. Putting the book aside, she adjusts to a comfortable position and falls asleep with her eyes closed.

Katrina sleeps until the late afternoon the next day.

She hasn't slept so comfortably like this in the past two months.

When she wakes up, the bed is clear. She is alone. Without Aaron's endless pestering and bullying, she can't be happier.

After a full night's sleep, Katrina stretches herself and smiles in content.

She's finally gotten back her ordinary and wonderful life.

Lifting the quilt, Katrina gets off the bed and pours herself a gla.s.s of water. She sits cross-legged on the sofa and drinks in a daze.

Suddenly, her originally misty eyes become serious.

She's been away for so long that she hasn't had contact with Uncle Anderson.

At the very least, she should let Uncle Anderson know that she's back. Even though Farrah had told him that she is out on a special a.s.signment, they've been out of touch for so long that Uncle Anderson must be worried.

Katrina subconsciously looks for her cell phone on the sofa, but suddenly stops when she removes the cus.h.i.+on beside her.

After a long rest, she almost forgot that her cell phone is still in Aaron's hands. She hasn't had her cell phone for more than two months. It seems that she has to buy a new mobile phone. Additionally, her SIM card, bank card, and her ID have to be reissued.

At the thought, she realizes that there's a lot to do.

Just then, there's a knock at the door.

Wearing her slippers, Katrina rushes to open the door. She's greeted with the sight of Marcellus standing in the doorway and looking at her with a gentle smile on his face. It makes one feel like they're enjoying the spring breeze.

The moment he sees Katrina, the smile on Marcellus's face becomes warmer.

"Katrina," he says with concern, "I didn't bother you, did I?"

Katrina shakes her head and holds the door open. "Marcellus, come in."

After Marcellus enters, Katrina pours him a cup of tea.

Marcellus hands over the box in his hands to Katrina, "Katrina, I bought you a new phone and got your old phone number back. I asked someone to do it for you. I hope you like it."

After bringing Katrina home the night before, Marcellus waited for her to wake up and planned to ask her out to dinner.

But he suddenly remembered Farrah saying that Katrina lost her phone. There was no way for him to reach her. When he tried calling her old number, it was still turned off.

Marcellus went to a mobile store in person, bought her a new phone, and had her old SIM card reissued.

He made sure she's gotten enough rest before knocking on the door.

Fortunately, he hadn't disturbed her sleep.

When Marcellus hands the phone over, the logo on the box is clearly visible. It's the latest phone model that costs thousands of dollars, which isn't a small amount.

Katrina doesn't dare accept it, so she quickly returns it to Marcellus. "Marcellus, thank you. I really appreciate your kindness. But this phone is too expensive. I'll keep the SIM card, and you take the phone back."

Marcellus pushes Katrina's hand and looks at her with a warm and earnest look. "Katrina, there's no need to be so polite. You've been away for so long, and it's just a present to welcome you back."

After Marcellus's considerate gift, it seems inappropriate if Katrina declines it again. Marcellus specially chose a cell phone for her to give as a gift. If she refuses again, she would feel bad for wasting his efforts.

Katrina finally accepts the present. "Thank you, Marcellus."

Since Katrina started working, she hasn't made much money, but she still has enough to buy a mobile phone. Nonetheless, she accepts the present for the time being.

As the saying goes, one good deed deserves another.

Marcellus is so good to her. In the future, she will repay him for his gift.

Seeing Katrina accept the gift, a satisfied smile unconsciously lights up his handsome and elegant face.

Money doesn't matter to Marcellus.

He is willing to spend a lot of money on the person he likes, no matter how much.

If Katrina had refused the gift, he would be depressed.
