My Sexy Wife
Chapter 15 Lower Your Voice (2)

The next morning, Johnny tidied up his things before Lucia and Brown woke up. He did not have many things with him, just a few clothes. He took a single luggage bag with him when he came, and the clothes were all his property. Johnny carried the luggage and went to work. He was guilty. Even if they did not say about it, he wanted to move out too. He could not keep disturbing them. The reason that he stayed there was to hope that he could get any news from them about Queenie but Lucia told him clearly last night. He did not have to stay there anymore and kept bothering them. So, he carried his luggage and planned to search for a house when he went out for delivery, while he could directly move in, very convenient.

Once Johnny had decided to move out, he did it in a fast pace. He rented the house that morning and then moved in. Johnny did not have a specific requirement to rent a house, so it was easy for him to do it. The only requirement was cheap because he had to save money. Just like what he said, he was clear about where there were cheap houses for rent as he weaved through the city every day. When he passed by the place that day, he went in straight away and met the landlord. He rented it without much bargaining.

The room was in the basement, it seemed to be a basement carpark previously. The landlord bought it afterwards and had the electricity and water supply all set. The basement was divided into several small rooms. The room rented by Johnny just had an area of 15 meters square, which was quite big as compared to others. There was a bed, an old desk and a chair in it, the three items were the only furniture provided. He had to pay the electricity bill and the 500 rental fee every month. It was the cheapest place to rent in Pearl City. Johnny was satisfied with everything in it. The only thing that he was discontented with was the lighting. It was too dark. Besides, the air was quite stale. But the rental was just 500 bucks and he was happy with that. He would just stay there during night time, so he would not consider much. After having a busy day, he went to a nearby supermarket after getting off his work. He bought the necessities and even bought an induction cooker and a pot. They were all his property.

When he went back, he found Brown and Lucia standing outside of his rented place. Johnny was not surprised that they were there because Brown had called him before and he told Brown the location. "Damn, this is the place you rent? Why are you so stingy? Does it deserve you? You see, there are many labourers living here!" Brown chided once he saw Johnny.

"Why? Labourers are not human? Don't look down on labourers, they play an important role to build the city. If there is no labourer, who wants to urbanize the city?" Johnny took the key and entered. Lucia helped him to carry the things.

"I am telling you something serious. Don't brush the subject aside. I know you owe a lot of money and want to pay off the debt, but you should not push yourself so hard, right? Look at you, work so hard to earr money. Making money is important but you can treat yourself better. You could at least rent a place that is comfortable. How can you stay here? Why do you have to torture yourself? I really empathize with you." Brown was furious obviously. He continued, "If I knew that you would stay in this kind of place, I would have let you continue to stay in my house."

"Why? You miss me, are you?" Johnny smiled and said, "Bro, I get your kindness. Well, I am single. I go to work from dawn to dusk and just stay here for a few hours at night. I don't need a fancy place to live in. A man does not really care about the living condition. This place is good enough. Apart from the shared bathroom and the fact that I have to go to the public tap to get water, the rest is fine. You see, it's got electricity, wifi and a bed, right? I will be relieved after I pay off the debt. I am so tired of worrying about the debt all the time. Alright, bro, it is nothing to me. What is this compared to the tough life of our ancestors, huh? Lucia, have a rest, I will tidy up the things by myself. Let me take you two out for dinner tonight and have a housewarming party. Order whatever you want to eat. Of course, if it costs over 300 bucks, you pay for the extra," Johnny joked, as he brought Brown and Lucia out to have dinner.

"Hello!"

"Hello!"

"Are you Mr. Franco?"

"Yes, I am, who are you?" Johnny picked up the phone while driving his electric tricycle.

"Hi, I don't know if you still

remember a girl you had saved from

a car accident a few days ago? I am her father. We really appreciate your help. If you are not there, my daughter would've died in the explosion. You're our saviour.

asked the traffic police for help and

video. And I get to know your working location. I went to your

office just now and took your phone number. Mr. Franco, are you free now? My family and I want to meet you in person to express our gratitude," the man said in the phone.

Johnny thought for a while and recalled the accident. He asked directly, "Is your daughter alright?"

"It's no big deal. She passed out that day. After staying in the hospital for two days, she can leave now. Mr. Franco. Is it convenient for you now? Can you tell us where is your precise location? I will ask the driver to pick you up," the man said politely.

"You are so kind. Mister, I just did it out of my instinct. Whoever in that situation would save your daughter as well. I remembered after I saved your daughter, there was a lot of people helping her at that time. So, you don't have to thank me. I didn't save your daughter for rewards or anything. I am glad that your daughter is safe now."

"No, no, it might be a small matter for you but for us, you're saving our entire family. We must thank you in person."

"Forgive me, sir. I already said that I

don't need you to repay me. If I really wanted you to thank me, I would've stayed and waited for you there. I don't like to show off. I am an introvert. So, don't come here. I have helped your daughter now; then maybe one day if I am involved in an accident, someone will help me, right? Mister, if you really appreciate my help, don't look for me anymore. Don't spread this matter to my office or wait for me there. Everyone is on social media right now. If someone posts it on the internet, it would be really cringy for me. I beg you, forget about it. Don't look for me. This is

how I wish you to thank me. Ok,

bye!" Johnny hung up the call

instantly after that. Content belongs

"Jesus. If someone really puts that on the internet, I will have to say goodbye to the peaceful life." Johnny was nervous, but then he smiled and murmured to himself, "I am a real hero, a real anonymous hero, a keen hero, right? Hahaha!"

On Friday night, Johnny got off work

a bit late. According to the rule of the delivery company, he normally had less parcels to deliver on Saturday and Sunday because a lot of people were out during weekends and couldn't receive the parcels. So the delivery men would have a half-day leave during weekends, resting in the morning and then working for the entire afternoon. Johnny did not know about other companies but his company had been following this rule.
