Since Monica insisted, Owen stopped persuading him and went to the tool room to find tools and helped Monica repair the door.
This is not a difficult task for Owen. His father died young and he only had his mother and sister, so he would have done these things very early.
After closing the door, Owen wanted to hang out with Monica for a while longer, but Monica pushed him out of the door with a smile.
"Not today, I need to clean myself up. I haven't showered for several days..."
Monica smiled and pushed Owen out of the door. After closing the door, she blinked inside and made a goodbye gesture to Owen.
Owen was speechless. He was misunderstood by Monica. He really had no intention of completing the home run today. However, Monica's words gave him an unexpected thought, and his mind couldn't help but become more active.
It's a pity that the goddess has given an order to him to get out today, but he still left obediently.
This time Irving did not drive the old Ford again, but found a place to throw it away, then took a taxi and went home directly.
I didn't feel it just now, but as soon as I got into the taxi, my homesickness seemed to be aroused, and I felt like I was returning home. I looked at the driver's slow speed and wanted to push him away, and drove at a speed of 200 miles.
He has been afraid to go home since he was put on a bounty. Now that the threat has been eliminated, he really misses his mother and sister.
As the car traveled through the streets and alleys of Los Angeles, getting closer and closer to the Zilin Road community, Irving actually became a little excited.
When he arrived at the door of his house, Owen paid the fare, got out of the car and walked quickly towards his home.
"Hi, Owen, you're back..."
Owen turned around and heard Mr. McCall's voice from the other side. He was sitting on the couch in front of the door with a book as usual.
"Hi, Mr. McCall, I'll go home first and see you later..."
Owen said hello and went straight to the door, unlocking it with his fingerprint.
"Mom, Amanda, I'm back..."
Owen shouted excitedly, but there was no response in the room. Owen then remembered that his mother should not have gotten off work at this time, and Amanda should still be in class.
In the excitement, I actually forgot about this.
Owen went upstairs and walked around. Everything in the house seemed to be in good condition. Even his room was neat and tidy. Apparently his mother had not forgotten to clean it for him during this time.
Seeing that everything was fine at home, Owen went downstairs again, went out and walked towards McCall's house.
"Mr. McCall..."
"Your mother and sister probably haven't come back yet..."
"Yes, I forgot about that."
Owen touched his head. He was so excited that he forgot about this.
"All done?"
Owen looked at the black uncle, saw his bright eyes looking at him, and understood that he was asking about the Montel family, so he nodded.
"It's done, no more trouble will come to your door."
Irving was extremely relaxed when he said this. Ever since he got into trouble with the Montel family, what he was most worried about was the safety of his family. For this reason, he even bothered the mysterious black uncle.
The black uncle was also very helpful. Not only did he agree to take care of him, he also gave him a claw knife and a teaching video tape. The claw knife is still on him now.
After chatting with McCall for a few more words, as the sky gradually darkened, Irving said goodbye and returned to his home.
There was still some time, and he was wondering if he could use this time to prepare a table of delicious food as a surprise for his mother and sister.
But just as I was thinking about it, a sudden wave of tiredness came over me.
During this period of time, I have been busy rescuing Monica, and I have hardly slept at all. After I went to Colombia, I spent every day planning, and I was very nervous.
After rescuing Monica, I felt relaxed, but the cargo hold was not a good place. It was noisy and stuffy, and I didn't have a good rest. Now I returned to my home, and when I relaxed my whole body, I felt sleepy immediately.
After a while, his eyelids couldn't be opened, and he no longer thought about cooking. He went to his room on the second floor, fell on the bed, and fell asleep.
Well, my own bed is more comfortable...
Owen fell into a deep sleep.
He didn't know how much time passed before he was woken up by a scream.
"Ah, Steve, why is it you? You scared me to death..."
Owen opened his eyes drowsily and saw Amanda and her mother standing at the door. They were still holding the Ruger LC9s in their hands. No need to think about it, they must have found traces of someone entering after they returned home.
I thought someone had sneaked in.
"Amanda, this is not a good way to say hello..."
Owen was too lazy to get out of bed, so he started joking with them on the bed. They had a good relationship as brothers and sisters, and they couldn't help but want to tease her as soon as they met.
"Haha, look what I caught. I caught a thief trying to break into a house. Raise your hands, otherwise I will shoot..."
Amanda pretended to be fierce and yelled at Owen, and did not forget to shake the gun in her hand. Of course, he would not actually point the gun at Owen, it was just a show.
Owen also became interested in playing, raised his hands obediently, and begged for mercy on the bed: "Don't shoot, Miss Police Officer, I just heard that there is a Miss Amanda here who can sell her stinky socks at a high price on Amazon. Come over here."
Try your luck..."
"Ah, Steve, you bastard, how dare you say my feet smell..."
Amanda pounced on her with all her teeth and claws, and Owen and her laughed and got into a ball on the bed.
The mother smiled and watched the two children playing. This was probably the happiest moment as a parent.
It wasn't until the two of them were tired from fighting that their mother said, "Steve, weren't you worried that we would be implicated and didn't dare to come back? Why did you come back today? Has the matter been resolved?"
Sure enough, the mother, as an adult, is more thoughtful, and she can infer something from Owen's appearance.
"Yes, Mom, the matter is resolved."
Owen stopped joking and replied.
"Oh, great, so Steve, you can go home every day from now on?"
Amanda rolled around on the bed excitedly. She seemed really happy, but Owen was a little embarrassed: "Actually, I'm sorry, Mom, Amanda, I actually decided to move out..."
"Why?"
"Yeah, Steve, why, there's nothing wrong with you living at home..."
As he expected, both his mother and Amanda were a little surprised.
Owen had no choice but to explain: "It's more for safety reasons. Besides, I'm not young anymore, but I will come back often."
Owen said, in fact, safety considerations are only one aspect. Monica's attitude today reminded Owen that he has a girlfriend. Although they have not expressed it clearly, the two have regarded each other as a couple.
Since they are a couple, it is inevitable that there will be applause. He can't take Monica home, or every time he goes to a hotel or Monica's home, this is not his style.
Amanda still refused, but it was probably Owen's words "I'm not young anymore" that reminded his mother, and her mother did not continue to object. This made Owen feel a lot more relaxed. He was really afraid that his mother and Amanda would oppose him.
His life-long event is probably going to be tragic.
Dinner is bound to be sumptuous.
There is nothing more joyful than when Owen comes back and the family is reunited.
According to tradition, a big meal is inevitable in the evening. Mother cooked several of Owen's favorite dishes, and the family ate it happily.
Irving did not tell them what happened during this period of time. Irving was not prepared to let them know about the beatings and killings, so as not to worry them. He only said that the Pentagon took action and the Montel family was wiped out.
