Chapter 864: I don't know
"How can you trust him?" Michael frowned.
"We can\'t but we have no other choice." Andrew very well knew Pulos was not someone they should trust completely but they also did not have any other choice. Pulos could be their only chance to get some hints about what Lawrence was up to.
Keeping quiet for quite some time, Michael stated, "Okay, let\'s do this but you won\'t be the one going there. I will go and talk to him."
"But—"
Cutting him off, Michael snapped, "Don\'t argue with me over this. I am not taking any risk with your life."
"And what makes you think I am willing to take a risk? Even you know I am not letting you go alone," Andrew stated. Thinking for a while, he added, "Alright, we can do one thing—"
"What?"
"Go together and talk to him." Before he could say anything, Michael stated, "We are doing this together or we are not doing this at all."
Andrew was about to day something when he saw Linyang standing near the door. "I\'ll call you later." After hanging up the call, he crossed his arms in the front and raised his brows. "How much did you hear?"
"Enough to give me a couple of more sleepless nights."
"I was just talking to Michael about—"
Cutting him off, Linyang remarked, "I don\'t like getting into your business matters because you don\'t do the same. I also know we should respect each other\'s work space but this is insane."
Helplessly shaking her head , she sighed, "Look, I don\'t know what is going on but I do know that I won\'t be able to handle it if you get hurt or something happens to you Andrew. Today\'s incident—that letter, everything is so confusing and scary. I—"
Cupping her face , Andrew tried to calm her down. "It\'s alright, nothing is going to happen. I just need some time to deal with this and once I do, we will never face such situations in the future."
Wrapping her arms around his waist, she placed her head on his chest. "I don\'t know what you are up to but I want you to stay safe and never do anything recklessly, okay?"
Kissing the top of her head, he assured her. "Don\'t worry, I will take care of myself."
...
Next day.
Li mansion.
Qiang\'s room.
"Honey, Ash called." When Guang did not say anything, Qiang added, "Why aren\'t you receiving his call?"
"I don\'t know where my phone is babe."
Looking at his cellphone which was sitting on the table, she raised her brows. "It\'s right there."
"Oh, I did not see it earlier," he answered while fixing his sleeves.
Crossing her arms in the front, she frowned, "What happened again? Why are you avoiding Ashton\'s calls?" When he did not say anything, she sighed, "Honey, are you throwing tantrums again?"
Scrunching his brows, he snapped, "why does everyone think that I throw tantrums? That is not at all true."
"Oh please, everyone knows you are the worst tantrums thrower in our group. And the strange part is, you only throw tantrums to the boys."
"Well, even if I do, I do it for a valid reason," he defended himself.
"And what is that reason this time?" she inquired.
Before Guang could say anything, Yushen knocked at the door. "Can I come in?"
"Of course, come on in," Qiang invited him inside. "You guys talk, I\'ll go down and help mom with breakfast."
After she left, Yushen sighed, "What happened again? Why are you mad with Ashton and Yinhai?"
Gritting his teeth, Guang snapped, "Because they made me mad."
"Okay, not the answer I was looking for but I\'ll accept that." Placing his hand on Guang\'s shoulder, Yushen explained, "In another four or five months, you will become a father."
"Yeah so? What is your point?" he frowned.
"My point is, you are no more young. Which also means you shouldn\'t behave this way." When Guang frowned, he quickly added, "If you are not satisfied with something they did, talk it out with them. Isn\'t that way better than ignoring his calls and not talking to him?"
"Yes."
"See problem solved, just talk to him and if you are very angry just throw a punch on his face or kick his ass," he added.
...…
Ashton and Elsa\'s place.
"Don\'t you have work today?"
Pulling her closer, Ashton answered, "I\'ll stay with you for a couple of days. We can do whatever you want or we can order food and cuddle all day."
When she smiled and snuggled closer, he sighed, "Alright, tell me what is wrong." When she did not say anything, he added, "I am noticing this since yesterday. I did not mention it yesterday because you had a very tough day."
"I—It\'s nothing so important—"
Cutting her off, he remarked, "You can\'t decide that, I will after you tell me what is wrong."
Keeping quiet for quite some time, she hesitated for a while. "Y-Yestersay, Harry—"
Scrunching his brows, he inquired, "What did he do?"
Shaking her head, she answered, "He did not do anything to me but—but he told me something about you."
When a long silence greeted her, she added, "I don\'t trust him and I also know that you can\'t do anything bad but I still can\'t stop thinking about it."
"And what if it\'s true?" Looking at her, he added, "What are you gonna do then?"
Burying her head on his chest, she shook her head. "I don\'t know. But I do know that I love you and I can\'t lose you."
