But soon, the other party showed a very unfamiliar face.
A face as handsome as a sculpture.
The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and Louisa subconsciously took precautions.
"You look familiar."
"Come in first and talk." The other party spoke again. Although his voice was a little hoarse, it was still as deep and pleasant as a cello.
Once inside, Louisa opened the locked door to the ballroom.
Everyone in the ballroom was startled, but when they saw it was Louisa, they relaxed and flocked into the small restaurant.
The small restaurant was dark, the curtains on the windows were drawn, and there were no lights on.
Fortunately, Iris knew where the switch of the crystal chandelier was, so she reached out and pressed it.
The only crystal chandelier on the ceiling lit up with a dim light.
The next second, Kevin's voice rang out:
"elder brother!!!"
Several pairs of eyes fell on the tall man behind Louisa.
Kevin was the most excited.
"We've been looking for you for a long time. Have you been here all these days?"
Nora was obviously very happy as well and nodded politely to the other party.
Elise smiled and said, "Mr. August."
"Mrs. Williams." The man nodded. "Nice to see you again."
Kevin Ogest's brother, Jason Ogest.
The heir to the family business of Ogeste, a well-known entrepreneur, philanthropist, and angel investor, is clearly a businessman, but he won the World's Most Popular Male Face Award with his mature and charming face.
It is said that a few years ago, a famous domestic financial magazine interviewed him and used his photo as the cover. The sales of that issue were a hit and have not been surpassed until now.
Although he is inevitably marketed when attending various industry events, he has always been the most talked about person in the industry.
But his private life is very low-key. He is still unmarried at the age of 34. The only relationship that has been dug up was a campus romance ten years ago.
Louisa had to admit that Johnson was indeed very handsome. Even though he looked a little tired now, he was still very handsome.
"I climbed down from the room last night." Johnson smiled.
Louisa said, "That room up there doesn't seem to be yours."
"Yes, but this is the only place with no people and food."
What Johnson said was indeed correct. After all, the zombies were led to the dance hall next door.
The room was not very big. In the middle was a long table similar to the one in the main restaurant, covered with a long purple tablecloth.
The long table was filled with broken cakes, and the silver cutlery reflected the bronze candlesticks in the dim light.
The two bouquets of withered flowers and the spilled black tea in the porcelain vase looked a bit messy.
Cole was almost fainting from hunger, so he grabbed a cupcake and stuffed it into his mouth without caring whether it was bad or not.
The sweet taste made Cole feel delicious. He ate it in one bite and then grabbed another macaron.
Ashton and Cynthia were also very hungry, so they picked up English muffins and cheesecake from the three-tiered silver tray and started eating.
Elise was also hungry. She picked up a piece of fruit tart, ate it, and immediately vomited it out.
Sour! The fruit is rotten.
Although there is central air conditioning in the room, it is midsummer after all.
"It was kind of broken, but I was just so hungry and needed some sugar," Kerr said.
Iris shook her head: "I'm sure you'll get a stomachache if you eat this!"
"Then try these cookies," Cole said.
Kevin and Nora were also a little hungry, so they had to eat something to fill their stomachs.
Louisa looked at Jason's unnatural expression and asked, "Are you hurt?"
"Yeah." Johnson sat on the velvet sofa beside him, wearing a loose suit jacket.
Louisa took out the powder and bandages from her backpack and handed them to Jason.
"Thank you." Johnson took it and looked at Louisa. His deep green eyes looked at Louisa: "Did the military send someone?"
Louisa said calmly, "It's a private commission."
Jason's eyes immediately fell on Nora.
"It seems that it's all thanks to Nora."
Elise couldn't eat any more cookies after eating a few, and quickly asked Jason, "Have you seen Seth Bin?"
Jason shook his head: "I have never been out of here."
Iris was a little discouraged and sat aside disappointedly.
There was a storm outside the window, and the raindrops were hitting the window. Judging from the rhythm, the raindrops were very dense.
"...How long will this rain last?" Cole asked. "Will the helicopter still come?"
"Helicopter?" Johnson asked. "How many seats?"
As soon as these words came out, the air in the room stopped flowing.
There were eight people in the room alone now, plus Sarah and Sophia upstairs.
Louisa's main protection target is Nora, and the two August brothers naturally benefit from it. Elise and her little daughter must also be evacuated urgently. The remaining Ashton, Cynthia, and Cole are a little embarrassed.
Louisa seemed not to feel the stagnant atmosphere and said lightly: "I am only responsible for taking Nora out. The helicopter sent will not have more than four seats."
Ashton looked at Nora: "Saudi Arabia and Country M have a long-standing cooperative relationship."
Cynthia sneered silently. He was just a senior worker. Who would care about the life of a screw?
Cole was young, so he asked bluntly, "What about the rest of us? Doesn't the government care?" His parents' lives were still uncertain, and he didn't have a cell phone to contact the outside world.
Elise said, "There are yachts on the east beach, but I don't know how much fuel is left."
"The nearest city airport is not reachable by yacht."
"But if we don't take a helicopter, the yacht is the only way we can get out of this hellhole," said Cynthia.
Louisa looked at her watch. It was 4:50 in the afternoon.
Elise said, "We need the key to the yacht. The key is in Sesbin's study."
Kevin was helping Johnson treat his wound. When Louisa turned around, Johnson's arm was already bandaged.
Johnson said: "This is in the international waters. The nearest national territorial waters are 200 nautical miles away. If you can enter the territorial waters, you can ask for help from the patrolling air police."
Ashton then said to Louisa, "Name your price and give me a seat."
Cynthia sneered: “Is life more important or money more important at this time?”
Ashton ignored her and said to Louisa, "You have a gun and are professionally trained, so you can survive if you hold out for a few more days. This virus is so bizarre, the government won't sit idly by. They will definitely send a special forces team, and then you can get out."
Louisa smiled. What he said made some sense.
Ashton thought this was a good opportunity, but Louisa said, "I was a soldier after all, so I naturally give priority to ladies."
