Helen is the quintessential type of good wife and mother.In Helen's opinion, her husband is safe, her daughter is happy, and the three little ones have grown up smoothly, plus she has a happy life, this is enough.Helen felt that her three wishes would soon be fulfilled two.Wrong.It's three.Although Helen has never said anything and supported George's work, Gwen knows her, and every time, when George is on an urgent mission, she will stare at the phone at home, afraid of any call from George before he comes home.Cause?
As a family member of a police officer, I know everything.And now?
George was promoted, and he was also promoted to the position of deputy commissioner of the third echelon of the New York Police Department.However, Helen didn't care about George's position, she only knew that after George was promoted, he wouldn't be able to go out of the field, and if he couldn't go out of the field, she didn't need to be worried.That's good.Helen felt that this was the best Christmas gift she had ever received this year."
Thank you, Hawke.""
What did you say?""
Nothing."
Helen glanced at her husband, smiled, and shook her head.The next day."
Hawke, hurry up.""
Here we are."
Hawke, who came down the stairs, yawned and looked at Lorna, who was standing in the doorway, wearing a velvet hat and a scarf around her neck: "What are you doing in a hurry, John must not have gotten up yet." ”It's Christmas Eve.As was customary for the previous two years, today was the day when Hawke and Lorna, along with John next door, went to pick the Christmas tree and came back.Of course.Someone in the community had already bought a Christmas tree several days in advance, but Lorna had always believed that a tree that hadn't been drenched in snow wasn't a good one.So even with John next door, basically, when it snows, when is the day when they come back from fighting the Christmas tree.And the snow fell especially late today.To be precise, after Hawke was sent home by Gwen last night, it didn't snow until the second half of the night.It's not.Lorna, who originally thought that she had no hope of carrying the Christmas tree back this year, got up earlier than Hawke, and began to tell Hawke to get up and carry the Christmas tree quickly.Hawke walked to the door and looked outside.It's really a snowy community.Not far away.John next door had just opened the door, and then, looking at the snow blocking the road, and Hawke glanced at each other, and then they both turned around and walked towards their garage.Jane, who was already dressed, sent an invitation to Lorna: "The two of them estimate that it will take a while to shovel snow, come in and have a cup of milk tea?"
”Lorna looked at Hawke, who was carrying a shovel from the garage and holding a small shovel in his hand, and hurriedly walked towards Jane's house next door: "Give me a cup, add sugar, thank you!"
Hawke smiled, threw aside the small shovel that he had intended to give to Lorna, rolled up his sleeves, and looked at John, who had just come out of the garage with a shovel.The two looked at each other, and then, after counting three times in their hearts.Next second!
Hawke took the lead in launching a powerful offensive against the snow at the door, and John, seeing this, was also unwilling to be left behind, bending down and brandishing a shovel, trying to catch up with Hawke's progress.Standing at the door with Jane over a cup of milk tea, Lorna looked at the others, and saw that the men of the community had joined the team to remove the snow at the door."
That's right."
Jane took a sip of milk tea, put it down, and looked at Lorna, who was standing aside: "Are you still coming to our house this Christmas?"
”Lorna looked at Jane: 'Of course, it's tradition, already. ’Jane was a little curious."
Aren't you and Hawke moving?""
Probably not so fast.""
What's wrong?""
The bathroom on the second floor is leaking, and it may need to be fixed.""
Okay."
Jane smiled and said, "If your brother doesn't need to accompany his girlfriend, then it's decided, let's go buy ingredients in the afternoon?"
”Lorna smiled and said, "Other women can occupy Hawke's time every day, but, Christmas, it is me and Hawke, and no one can take it away." ”For the past seventeen years, every Christmas, starting when they were four years old, has been spent together by Hawke and Lorna.She and Hawke spend Christmas in an abandoned treehouse, in an unguarded dam duty room, and even in an abandoned mental hospital.But......
Wherever she was, Christmas and Christmas Eve, Hawke stayed with her.It used to be.And now too.It will be in the future.No one can snatch Hawke from me, on Christmas Eve and Christmas.No one!
Lorna said, her eyes steadfast.Jane next to her felt the fierce temperament coming from Lona next to her, and silently took a few steps back to the side, so as not to encounter an unwarranted disaster.An hour later.The road from the garage to the outside of the community was opened up thanks to the joint efforts of everyone.Hawke took Lorna and got into the black jeep, and then, following the two John's cars in front of him, drove one after the other towards the Christmas tree store on the outskirts of Jersey City.Around noon, Hawke returned home with two Christmas trees placed on the back of the jeep.Not much."
That's it!"
Lorna lit the firewood in the fireplace and clapped her hands contentedly at the Christmas tree that had been set up by the closet."
How?"
Lorna looked at Hawke: "I bought a few light strips this year when they were on sale, and when they were turned on at night, they would look even better." ”..Hawke, who was sitting on the couch, nodded."
Not bad.""
It's just a disadvantage.""
What?"
Lorna winked at Hawke and pointed to the empty patch under the Christmas tree, "Don't you think there's something missing?"
”Hawke smiled directly: "If you want a gift, just say it directly." ”Lorna said: "Your gift is your gift, I also prepared a gift for you, I'm talking about the gift that Santa Claus gave me, and I don't know what time he will come to put the gift tonight." ”Hawke looked at Lorna, who was seriously saying that she wanted more gifts, and shook her head with a smile.Rise!
Lorna froze."
Where are you going?""
I'm going to find you Santa Claus."“…… Then you come back early, it's Christmas Eve. ”"Good!"
Hawk waved his hand without looking back, drove his Audi A8, and with a snort, after leaving the house, ran to Catherine's old local bar in the blink of an eye."
Jingle bell!"
Catherine, who was behind the bar, said without raising her head: "The gift has been packed for you, and I will drive it back later." ”Hawke threw the car keys to the bar, pulled out the barstool, and sat down: "Thanks, how is business?"
”Catherine looked up."
Yours, or mine?""
Together.""
My boom, do you know how many of you Confederations will drink wine on this day at Christmas that they are usually reluctant to buy?""
What about me?""
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Yours is in a trance, it's a holiday, and the mainland hotels have posted holiday notices, don't you know?""
Killers don't have holidays!""
That's the movie."
Catherine rolled her eyes: "It's okay, don't watch those movies that are easy to come to the dock, it's easy to be brainwashed, you had a task around Christmas last year?"
”Hawke shook his head."
Nope!""
The killer doesn't have a holiday, but there is a holiday, at this time, except for those spy agents who like to come out for activities, we are all closed at the end of the year by default, if you are bored, just right, go to Earl King's family auction tomorrow.""
Nope."
Hawke shook his head: "You know me, on Christmas Eve night and all day on Christmas, I don't go out, where Lorna is, where I am." ”No way.For Lorna, Lorna can be away from her for 363 and a half of the 365 days of the year.There's nothing wrong with that.Lorna promised not to get angry.But on the night of Christmas Eve and the whole day of Christmas, in the course of a day and a half, if Hawke were to be missing.Lorna would be straight out for a year.And it's the kind that can't be coaxed no matter how much you coax.Because of this, Hawke turned down the Christmas Eve banquet sent by Norman Osborne and Helen's invitation to dinner tomorrow Christmas.Catherine, of course, knew Hawke's habit, and smiled: "Okay, then I'll be alone, just right, after participating in the auction, I will go to Paris with Sever." ”Hawke shrugged his shoulders and drank the bourbon from his cup, then took out a long-wrapped gift from his bosom and handed it to Catherine: "Merry Christmas." ”Catherine raised her eyebrows, took the gift, and opened it as she said, "You know, we're just your Christmas." ”Hawke smiled, "But that doesn't stop me from giving you a gift." ”Catherine glanced up, "I mean, I don't have a gift for you. ”Hawke laughed.The next second.After Ekaterina tore open the wrapping of the gift, she wrapped it in an equally sparkling bow and diamond necklace.In Russia, a long time ago, there was a woman with the same name and surname as Catherine, who liked bow necklaces very much.Well.It was that Tsarist Wu Zetian.Hawke looked at the look on Catherine's face and said with a smile: "This is what I saw at an auction in May, and it is said to be the empress's treasure. ”Ekaterina took out the bow diamond necklace, and at the same time was a little surprised, she looked at Hawke in surprise: "I'll just say why this necklace hasn't appeared since the auction in May, it was originally bought by you." ”Hawke smiled, "Do you like it?"
”Catherine looked at Hawke with a smile."
I like it, come in and help me see if it's good."“……”……
