Marvel Plane Trader

  Chapter 35 Sabrina

   Just as Margot and Josie expected in advance.

  The purchase of 3 million war bonds became the top name tonight.

As a result, Josie, who was a little transparent at the beginning, became the focus of this reception. There was an endless stream of guests who came to chat, even John Lebile, who didn't take Josie very seriously before, The mayor, senators, etc., all came here.

  Those guests who knew about Josie and Margot's relationship also saw a big change in him.

At first, those people thought that Josie was just a little boy raised by Margot, but they didn't expect that it was a big fat sheep—except for Margot, Josie, and the person in charge of the bank responsible for collecting the checks, there was no one there. It was known that the money was actually paid by Margot.

  As long as they don't say it, almost no one will believe that the money came from Margot.

   After all, that is not thirty thousand, three hundred thousand, but three million.

  The wealth of most of the guests present may not be that much.

  So no one would believe that Margot would pay such a high price for a mere scumbag.

  Even Johann Lebile, who knew Margot very well, didn't quite believe it.

   "Margo, there's no need for you to do this!" Josie said helplessly as she approached Margot after finally dealing with the guests.

"But this is the best result, isn't it? I don't start a company, and it's useless to have this title, but you are different. After today, people in the whole Chicago and even in many parts of the United States will know you It will be of great benefit to you to start a business factory in the future, and even if you want to enter politics in the future, it will be an excellent capital." Margot smiled softly.

  Seeing such a considerate Margot, Josie couldn't help feeling deeply moved.

  But at this moment, there was a little commotion at the reception.

  Then Josie and Margot saw John Lebile leaving the reception in a hurry with a group of people.

   For a while, the scene of the reception was filled with whispering voices.

  Although the protagonists of this reception are the mayor, senators, and military representatives, and the joint labor organization that sells war bonds, John Lebile is the host after all, and there is no reason to leave early.

   "Hello, what happened?" Margot stopped a waiter and asked.

   "Sorry, ma'am, I don't know either!" The waiter shook his head.

"Everyone, Mr. Lebiler just had some personal affairs to deal with, so he left early. You don't have to worry too much. Today's reception can be said to be very successful. I am also very grateful to Mr. Josie Kahn and everyone for your support. Support, let us toast together..." Seeing that something was wrong with the atmosphere at the venue, people from the labor organization immediately stood up to cheer up the atmosphere.

   At this time, Josie discovered that the lawyer named Amory who was with John Lebile before had secretly left from the edge of the venue with a nervous face.

   But this has nothing to do with Josie, and he doesn't know what happened.

  Stayed at the reception for another half an hour, and some guests had already started to leave slowly. Josie and Margot had almost met each other, so they were also preparing to leave.

   As soon as he went out, a figure ran towards Margot. Fortunately, Josie reacted quickly and blocked Margot.

  The opponent was very small, so he fell to the ground after such a collision, and Josie was fine.

  But soon got up again and apologized to Josie again and again.

   "Sorry, sir, very sorry!"

At this time, Josie and Margot discovered that the other party was wearing a maid uniform, and she should be a servant of the Lebile family, but her head was lowered, so she couldn't see her face clearly, but she shouldn't be very old, so she might be the same Josie seems.

   "It's okay, but you, did you get hurt just now?" The kind-hearted Margot immediately expressed her forgiveness and asked with concern.

  Hearing Margot's kind voice, the maid raised her head and looked at the two of them.

   "Hepburn?" As soon as the maid looked up, Josie couldn't help calling out a name.

   That's right, the other party is impressively the appearance of Audrey Hepburn, a Hollywood actress who will become famous in Xia Kingdom in the future.

It's just that when Josie yelled, the other party was slightly taken aback, and then asked hesitantly, "Sir, are you calling me? But my name is not Hepburn, I am Sabrina, do you recognize the wrong person?" gone?"

   Now it's Josie's turn to be embarrassed, did he admit the wrong person?

  Wait, at this time Josie suddenly realized that Margot is also a character in a movie, so the Audrey Hepburn in front of her is probably also a character in a certain movie?

It’s just different from Hitchcock’s classic film, Telephone Murder. Although Josie knows Audrey Hepburn, her works, except for the famous Roman Holiday and Breakfast at Tiffany’s, seem to be gone. .

   And the little girl named Sabrina in front of me obviously doesn't match the images in these two movies.

   Just as Josie was in a daze, suddenly there was a sharp pain in his waist.

   Then he woke up instantly.

   Turning her head to look at Margot who was looking up at the sky, Josie was speechless. Do all women do this trick?

   "Sorry, I recognized the wrong person." Josie and Sabrina apologized.

   "It's okay, sir, madam, it's my fault, I ran into the two of you." Seeing this, Sabrina waved her hands again and again, and then said cautiously, "Sir, madam, I have something urgent, can I leave first?"

   "Of course." Josie gestured sideways.

   "Thank you sir, thank you ma'am." Seeing this, Sabrina thanked her repeatedly, and then hurried into the hall.

   "Who is Hepburn?" As soon as Sabrina left, Margot approached Josie and asked.

   "What? Are you jealous?" Seeing this, Josie asked back with a smile.

   "Hmph, why should I be jealous, and you are not someone to me!" Margot said angrily.

   Man, honey a few minutes ago, not a man now, so fast.

"Don't be angry, let me tell you the truth. It was the beginning of the war. Our family met a little Dutch girl when we were fleeing. She was about my age, but I hadn't seen her since the war started. The girl just now, It's really similar to her." Josie said half-truthfully.

  Hepburn in this time period of the original time and space is indeed still hungry in the Netherlands, and Josie is not afraid of being authenticated at all.

  Besides, since this world is a parallel time and space similar to movies, it is unknown whether there is Audrey Hepburn.

"I'm sorry, dear, I brought up bad memories for you." Hearing Josie explain that Audrey Hepburn met when she was fleeing, her original jealousy instantly turned into hatred. Josie's pity.

  Because Josie was only ten years old at that time, for such a little kid, the life of fleeing must have been quite difficult.

  As for Audrey Hepburn, she had completely forgotten about it.

  The war in Europe is so chaotic, whether this little Dutch girl of Audrey Hepburn is still alive is unknown.

   Just like that, the episode brought by Sabrina passed quickly.

  Josie and Margot continued to chat about getting ready to go home.

  However, on the way home, Josie and Margot felt something was wrong with the police cars speeding past from time to time and the checkpoints at various intersections.

   "Mr. Police Officer, what happened?" When passing by a checkpoint, Josie couldn't help asking a policeman. Seeing the policeman hesitated, Josie also handed over a "tip" of twenty dollars.

   Facing the temptation of money, and looking at Josie and Margot's high-end clothes and luxury cars, it seems that they are not ordinary people, so the police whispered the reason.

   "Lebile Jewelry Company knows, right? Their vault has been stolen, and it is said that the loss is at least several million!" The police approached Josie and whispered.

  Hearing what the police said, Josie and Margot subconsciously looked at each other.

   No wonder Johann Lebile left early halfway, it turned out that something big happened.

   I just don’t know why, upon hearing the news, the image of Emory leaving the venue with a nervous expression immediately appeared in Josie’s mind.
