Chapter 119 A conversation
Ethan Mo hung up the phone and he glanced at the watch before turning the steering wheel driving to another street with a gloomy face.
Since he took over the family business, he moved out alone to Tingyu manor, and there were other houses in Gang City except for the manor. Most members of the Mo family lived in a residence of the southern suburbs for more than ten years. Ethan's father felt that the old house was filled with too many people, so he moved to a four-bedroom apartment nearby.
He went straight to the apartment where the guard downstairs helped him drive the car to the underground parking lot quickly. Ethan Mo went into the apartment and saw his grandfather and his father in the living room.
"Grandpa, Dad." Ethan opened his mouth after going in.
Four savvy and sophisticated eyes looked at him at the same time.
"Busy, huh? What have you been up to lately?" Ethan's father nodded slightly as a response.
"The company. There was an accident on the construction site." He walked to the sofa and sat down, without any change in his expression.
Ethan's grandfather knocked hard on the ground with the crutch held in his hand, and the face full of gully seemed to have no warmth at all.
"I have sent someone to it. If it really is an accident, the deceased will be paid. And the family will be taken care of."
Ethan understood that though these two retired from the company, they were fully aware of everything that happened in the company and him.
"Sorry to bother you with that, grandpa."
Ethan's grandfather shook his head and pointed to him as he spoke.
"Tell me, Ethan, what is going on with you lately? I heard that for several important meetings, you just left everyone behind. For what? Not to mention the project in Europe. Could it be that hard for you to go there in person? Is it because you don’t want to go or something else? Huh? Tell me, Ethan."
While Ethan had his mind occupied by the fact that Belle Ye escaped. He held the phone in his hands, waiting for Xu Xing or Barry Mo to report and being offhand with his grandfather and Shawn Mo.
"I’ll go in person, but not now."
Ethan's father was getting angrier when he saw Ethan was acting absent-mindedly.
"When then? A decade later? Tell me what’s so important right now?"
"Dad, I don’t need to report everything to you." Ethan was taken back to reality. "And Grandpa, I know what I’m doing. You guys like to watch me in the company, that’s fine. I could pretend I’m not aware, but, do not stand in my way."
"You bastard, what are you talking about!" Shawn Mo stood up with anger burning in his eyes.
Ethan's grandfather could still remain calm. His expression changed but was back to normal quickly.
"Shawn, sit down. Ethan, answer your father’s question. What are you up to? "
"Grandpa, just tell me what do you want."
Hearing this, his grandfather was going to lose temper, but at last, he sighed and lowered the eyes.
"I heard the girl of the Ning family awoke from the coma."
Ethan narrowed his eyes slightly and then nodded.
"Good, that’s a good thing. That poor girl. Sleeping her five good years in the hospital for doing nothing." The old man sighed again. "I remember you’re engaged with her five years ago, right?"
Ethan listened quietly without interrupting him.
Of course, he remembered what happened five years ago, but he did not plan to be engaged to May Ning so soon. He did it because he was annoyed by Belle Ye, so Ethan wanted to refuse Belle completely by his engagement with May.
He made an impulsive decision, while May Ning and her family took it seriously. In order not to disappoint May, Ethan agreed on this whole thing.
But the Mo family set the goal on the girl from the Ye family because the properties of the Nings were just shrimp and crab compared with the Mo family or the Ye.
As a result of the conflicting opinions, Ethan almost severed contact with his family. At last, his father and grandfather had to compromise and agreed on the engagement.
"Grandpa, did you call me here for this?"
"Or what? If you don’t want to pay attention to your career, go and build a family then so as to avoid some tempts out there." Shawn cut in and answered. What he implied was loud and clear to Ethan.
The old man nodded as well and said.
"Go and invite May’s parents to our house sometime, and we will discuss the detail so that you two could have a grand wedding. The preparations for that can not be sloppy. "
Ethan’s mind flew to elsewhere a long time ago. He stood up and replied.
“You guys can discuss. I’ll go first.” Ignoring the reaction of his father and grandfather, Ethan just left.
Until he walked out of the apartment and breathed the fresh air into his chest, he felt alive.
Then he called Xu Xing and asked about Belle's whereabouts.
"Sir, we didn’t find them."
"What about Nathan Luo? Anything new about him?"
"She didn't go to Nathan Luo. We got people watching him, and Yoyo Lin as well. If Miss. Ye goes to any of them, she will be found soon." Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
Ethan went silent for a few seconds to think and then opened his mouth again.
"Hotels. Search the hotels one by one. She’s with a child, and she must not be far away. What’s more, that kid had no certificates, it is even more impossible to leave Gang City."
Xu responded and then hung up the phone.
As long as she was still in Gang City, they would find her sooner or later.
