Chapter 213 Can’t Chase Too Hard
Hellen treated Luz as a younger brother. Upon receiving this caring message, she felt warm.
After replying to the message, she talked to Luz about the weekend live broadcast and then looked at her WhatsApp Status.
In her WhatsApp Status, Karlen had just posted a photo with Taylor.
Hellen looked at her WhatsApp Status, then put down her phone to rest.
In the following two days, Hellen got up lazily every day. Before morning, she went to the United Department of the Weststadt District to learn mortise and tenon from Lambert.
When it was time to get off work, Mr. Thompson left early with his disciple and went back home.
Three o’clock in the afternoon.
Hellen was leaning on the table. She was carving a wooden object very seriously.
Lambert sat in front of the tea table and slowly made tea.
“You’re really good at this work. You’re smart and can deduce many things.”
Hellen finished the last wooden component and blew at the sawdust above.
“Doesn’t that mean you have good taste?”
“Enough flattery. You have such a big belly, and yet you come to learn every day. You are a bit too hardworking.” Lambert glanced at Hellen’s belly.
Hellen carefully pieced together the various small wooden pieces.
A beautiful wooden box appeared in her hand.
The sunlight outside the window shone on the side of Hellen’s face, making her skin look ice-cold. Her jet-black eyebrows were smiling with satisfaction.
When Hans pushed the door and walked in, his heart skipped a beat.
“Hi, Hans,” Lambert laughed.
“Hellen has just made a secret box. Would you like to open it?”
Hans nodded, walked to Hellen’s side, and sat down.
Hellen also wanted to try out her craftsmanship skills and handed the secret box to Hans.
“Did you choose the house you liked I showed you last time? Haven’t you seen any you like?”
Hellen turned to Lambert and asked.
“I chose two apartments. One is a villa, and the other is a courtyard,” Lambert said, “My wife likes the grape trellis in the villa more. Still, I think the three-story villa house is a little empty, so I prefer the courtyard.”
“Isn’t it simple? If Mrs. Thompson likes the grape trellis, we can build a grape trellis in the courtyard.”
Hellen couldn’t help but laugh. “You are a woodworker. What kind of grape trellis can’t you set up?”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a click.
She turned to look at Hans’s hand.
She had worked hard for three days to designing the secret box. The secret box had been scattered in Hans’s hand in a pile of wooden parts.
“You opened it so quickly?” Hellen frowned.
Lambert gloated.
“It seems that you still have something to learn.”
Hellen grumbled, “He’s obviously too smart. He’s opened so many secret boxes that you’ve made yourself. What I’ve done is nothing to him.”
“Although it’s easy to open, the workmanship is meticulous,” Hans said lightly.
After the three chatted for a while, Lambert took out the photos of the two houses he and his wife chose.
Hellen called Mike and asked for the two houses” flat design plans and indoor drawings.
After looking at the flat design plans, Lambert became more determined to get the courtyard house.
“Then choose the courtyard. I’ll set up a grape trellis for my wife, and the courtyard is bigger. We can transplant the trees my wife planted in Luxembourg.”
Hellen smiled.
Lambert gave Hellen a meaningful look.
He knew what her disciple was planning. Hellen wanted him to stay in Tempe City.
“Okay, his one.” Lambert smiled happily.
“I’ll leave the house to you. I’ll transfer the money to you.”
Lambert turned around and walked to the tea table. She opened the drawer and took out a card, which seemed to have been prepared for a long time.
Lambert placed the card in front of Hellen.
“This should be enough to buy this courtyard. Take the rest as your payment for your hard work.”
“How can I ask you for money to buy a house?”
Hellen pushed the card back, smilingly.
“When I became your apprentice, I told you I would take care of you and your wife.”
Lambert raised her eyebrows slightly.
In the end, he didn’t say anything and took back the card.
Hellen sent the number of the courtyard to Mike and asked him to help buy it.
“Mike always does things quickly. If there is no accident, you may move in this week.”
Lambert nodded, and Hellen looked at Hans.
Hans continued to work on the secret box.
It was easy to open the box but much harder to put it back together.
Hans’s fingernails were trimmed neatly, and his fingers were long and powerful. He quickly fiddled with the wooden parts.
He frowned, but there was an extra wooden piece in the end.
Hellen was satisfied somehow.
“It’s not like that.” She picked up the wooden piece, taught and explained the principle to Hans.
Lambert looked up at them.
Hellen was teaching very seriously, but Hans’s gaze fell upon Hellen.
Hans was always full of tricks.
Lambert tutted.
Lambert turned on the TV and found the TV series was his binge-watched.
After Hellen explained it to Hans, she noticed Lambert was watching the ending of Thousands of Miles.
“The end has already come?” Hellen was somewhat surprised and delighted.
After all, it was a TV series made on her novel. Although it had begun some time ago, Hellen had heard that it would only be played one episode a week.
Although Kenny had sent her the full version of Thousands of Miles, she had no time to watch it. She planned to find a chance to see the actors” performance after the video was played online.
“You also watch this?” Lambert smiled and said, “Recently, except for those old martial arts dramas, this is the best one.”
Hellen excitedly sat next to Lambert and watched the ending.
As she expected, Karim had good acting skills.
Vivian also fully demonstrated the martial arts style.
Lambert watched the drama and said, “This drama is directed by Kenny Lee. I heard that Jovano Group is the investor. You must have made a lot of money by now.”
Hellen fell silent and looked at Hans quietly.
Speaking of which, the investor for the movie was originally the Grant Group. However, Hans insisted that Natalie play the female lead then, so she had Kenny change her family as the investor.
“A bit of profit.” Hellen laughed awkwardly.
Hans also looked up and said, “This series has a mature script, and the plot is wonderful; Bobby, the author of Thousands of Miles, is the one who made it successful.”
Hellen felt that she had been praised and felt very good.
“But Bobby is more mysterious. You can ask Kenny to contact him and write a sequel,” Hans said.
Hellen thought for a moment. “Forget it. He might not have the time.”
“You know him?” Lambert was interested.
“If you know him, introduce him to me. I think we have something in common.”
