Looking at the blurred words on the document in front of him, Locke frowned and raised his face.
Dang Dang Dang!
Outside the door, there was a knock on the door.
"Enter!"
The housekeeper walked in respectfully, "Sir, due to the aging of the wires in the bathroom, there was a short circuit in the wires and the power generation device was burned. It will take more than two hours to repair everything."
Locke looked at his watch and asked, "How long will the backup power last?"
"If the entire island is powered on, it will take at most one hour." The butler replied.
Locke pondered for a moment, "We only supply electricity to the villa for the time being."
"yes!"
"Are ROY and Roselia back?" Locke asked again.
The butler stood there with a humble voice, "Not yet, sir."
Locke's face turned gloomy. It had been a few hours and he hadn't come back yet. There were just four people. Could it be that even they couldn't handle it?!
"I heard that Mr. Roy and Miss Roselia were having a hunting competition, and they deliberately released the four intruders into the forest at the back of the mountain," the housekeeper explained.
Locke raised his eyebrows, slightly displeased.
These two bastards are playing again?!
However, after hearing what the housekeeper said, his original worries were relieved.
He knows best how strong ROY and Roselia are. If the two of them attack, the other will not be able to escape. If they let each other into the forest first and then hunt, it will definitely take more time. From his understanding, these two
The two guys might even try to make trouble for each other, and now they might have managed to get rid of the intruders from wandering around in the forest.
Locke didn't take these four intruders seriously.
There are dozens of subordinates on the island, and dealing with four people is a piece of cake.
"If they come back, let them come to see me immediately."
"Yes, sir."
"What did the dinner lady say you were thinking about?"
He lowered his head and looked at the document in front of him. There was only one last page left, so he could finish reading it.
"Madam said...she wants to eat dumplings," the housekeeper replied in a low voice.
"Then cook it for her." Locke said calmly.
"But..." the housekeeper hesitated, "the person who went to pick up the chef hasn't come back yet!"
Snapped!
The document in Locke's hand fell on the table with a crisp sound.
"Why?"
"The wind was strong and the power system was damaged, so the aircraft guidance system could not be used, so we had to make a boat trip," the steward replied.
The island is more than three hours by boat from the ground. Due to the bad weather and the power system, the plane cannot take off. It takes seven hours to make the round trip by boat. Plus the time to find a chef, Locke is
It is completely impossible to order a meal at noon and have a Chinese chef cook for dinner.
"Ask the kitchen to help Madam prepare some light dishes, no seafood, just fruits and vegetables plus some staple food." Locke suddenly closed the documents in his hands and stood up from the chair, "Tell him, if Madam can't eat anymore tonight,
If you want to eat, throw him into the sea!"
The butler swallowed and said, "Yes, sir!"
Locke waved his hand irritably, and the butler immediately quietly exited the door.
Not in the mood to pay attention to the documents and work on the table anymore, Locke stood up and walked out of the study, came to Luo Xiaoqian's door, held the doorknob, and turned it gently.
The door opens silently.
Inside the door, Luo Xiaoqian had woken up from her nap and was standing on the terrace with her arms folded, looking at the sea view.
