"Can I really leave?" Miya still can't believe it.
"A real man never goes back on his words, my word is my bond," says Richard emphatically.
At this moment, Miya starts walking toward the door. Unexpectedly, Richard really stands in situ
obediently as if watching her leave silently over there.
Until the moment she walks up to the door, Richard eventually detains her.
Miya stops, and she knows that this thing is far beyond simple. She says gruffly, "What games are you
playing with me?"
"I think you've misunderstood what I mean, I just want to tell you that I will arrange a car for you,
otherwise you won't be able to get home for donkey's years if you walk back by yourself," Richard's
face put on a smile, seeming to give her a kind reminder.
At this moment, Miya starts to ponder Richard's words.
Seeing that Miya remains silent, Richard can't help but ask again, "If I want to do something to you, I
would have done it long ago. Will I still arrange a car for you?"
Miya thinks about it for a moment, and feels that what Richard says makes sense indeed. Moreover, it
is also true that he has rescued her from Augus. Although she doesn't know which approach he has
used, leastways, it is an undoubtful fact.
"Well, where's the driver?" Miya can only ask with some embarrassment, after all, she has a strong
desire to go back.
"You just walk out and I'll let the driver follow you," Richard says neither quickly nor slowly.
Although Miya feels strange, she still nods to him and then walks forward slowly.
Richard doesn't send her home personally, instead, he really asks his personal driver to take her home.
Miya still can't figure it out despite the repeated thinking. Richard has spent a lot of time bringing her
here and now, he is actually letting her go just because she has signed the so-called contract.
After getting in the car, Miya can't help but say to the driver, "Hi, can you drive a bit faster?"
Although she doesn't know where this driver will take her, she thinks that she should be safe as long as
she is not with Richard.
Richard always gives others a complicated feeling, anyway, he makes others feel very uncomfortable.
She doesn't know why Aileen will fall in love with this guy. Now, she is completely hooked on the idea of
getting home as soon as possible.
…
In the villa.
In the living room, a few children and Carmen sit stock-still on the sofa. They haven't seen Miya for a
whole day, today they must find out what is going on.
Alex has just come home from the outside, and the children immediately rush over as soon as they see
him. Two of them embrace his thigh while the other grabs his arms as if they have negotiated.
"Daddy, tells us quickly, where's mom?"
"Where did mom go?"
…
The children ask the questions one after another, which makes Alex stressed out.
"What are you doing?" Alex has been in a bad mood today. He feels an unspeakable worry deep in his
heart since he can't find Miya, but he doesn't want to take it out on his children.
"Daddy, just tell us the truth, did you lose mom?" Ben wants to get the matter clear because he can
only help his dad when he understands the whole story.
"Grandma said we can't find mom anymore… I want mom…" Joey weeps out.
"Daddy, just tell us what is happening. We are your family and we are no longer the three-year-olds,"
Andre pats his chest with his hand.
Now, Alex really can't tolerate it anymore, do these three kids want him to die from anger?
"I'm telling you, all of you are not allowed to say anything and ask any question anymore! Go back to
your room right away!" Although Alex has tried very hard to suppress his anger, he can't disguise his
impatience in his words and attitude.
The failure to find Miya has made him crack up.
The children are taken aback by Alex's behavior, it seems that they haven't seen their father being so
angry for a long time.
"Daddy, you can't be like this! We also have the right to know the news about mom!" In his heart, Ben is
really worried about his mom, and he thinks that he can't just keep waiting like this. He must try to
reason with his dad.
"Can you talk to your father with such an attitude?" At first, Alex has suppressed his anger forcibly, but
what Ben says now is actually adding fuel to the fire.
"You…" Alex's eyes are about to be bloodshot.
Carmen notices that the situation has become a bit awkward, and she immediately walks over to detain
Ben, "Boys will be boys, it is normal for a child to talk nonsense. I will take them back to the room now."
With that, Carmen put her hand directly over Ben's mouth, they can't continue to annoy Alex.
Otherwise, he might really lose his temper.
Alex's expression is gloomy. Carmen can't help quivering, this man is so dreadful when he is angry.
Maybe only Miya is able to control him.
"I don't go!" Ben stares at Alex with an expression of sullen resentment, shaking off Carmen's
restraining hand forcibly.
"Don't you even obey me now?" Alex's tone is cold, even colder than the snow in the winter.
Carmen is taken aback, is Alex really going to fly into a rage? Sure enough, this family will really be in a
state of utter chaos if Miya is not around.
"Are you teaching me a lesson now? I just want to know what's going on with my mother," Ben's tone of
voice now is exactly the same as Alex's.
At first, Carmen wants to continue to stop them, but she is startled by Alex's ferocious aura. She has
experienced Alex's sulky look before, and it is really terrifying.
However, Ben doesn't want to show his weakness. Indeed, a great man can't tolerate a rival. The
moment Alex and Ben are in diametrical opposition with each other, there is a sudden crackling sound
outside the door.
After that, Randy walks in in a flurry.
Alex asks, "What's wrong?"
Then Randy stammers, "Mrs. President…she is back."
Everyone is surprised, and walks to the door in unison.
