"Cherry," Ryan said when he noticed Cherry standing in front of him with her back to him. "How come you're here, young master Song?" She said but did not turn to face him.“Can I not even come to see my sister, Cherry?” In a low voice, he asked.Cherry had not talked to him since the day Lucy had left. He, himself had to face a lot of trouble and barely came out of the Song mansion.“Why? Where your this side was when you did all those things to Lucy?” Cherry said angrily and turned towards to face him.“What?” Ryan looked at her in disbelief. He had never thought that Lucy would tell Chery of all people, not that he minded, as he had done something heinous and was ready to be hated and resented but… seeing that expression of disgust on Cherry’s face, he somehow could not tell how to act.“‘What?’” She repeated after him, and said, “Do you still have the audacity to be shocked?” She said and a pained look flashed in her eyes for a moment and disappeared, “Why? Do you think she would
“Lucy, come here,” Edmund asked, the moment he entered the mansion.“Brother, you are here,” Lucy stood up from her seat and went to him, “What are you doing, let me see…” He asked as he wiped her face which was covered in different kinds of colors.“I… I was painting something,” She said in a low voice, she knew he was not happy with her since the moment she had mentioned James and showed her desire to see him.“Is that so? What are you painting,” He said and took out his handkerchief when he could not wipe her face with his hands, even his hands got covered in those colors.“I… I wanted to…” She was not sure how to tell him. Lucy wanted to paint Ryan Song for her child, she had no pictures of him but at the very least, she wanted her child to see him through the painting.Edmund said nothing and sneaked to watch what she had painted, “Oh, so… were you trying to paint your baby’s father?” With doubt, he asked.Lucy was stunned by the sudden and direct question, she was not sure how t
A NOTEA few days later, It was finally time for Lucy to see James, she wanted to go there as soon as possible.“What are you doing?” Edmund knocked on her room but was stunned to see that she had Lucy had spread all her clothes on the bed, on the table on the floor, everywhere.Even though Lucy had not had many clothes but Edmund had brought a lot of clothes for her to wear, she did not want to use them much but since she had not a single belonging there, so she had no choice but to use them.“So what do you think I am doing, brother?” Lucy said and turned around.“Well… as long as I can see, I can tell that you are trying to select a piece of clothes to meet James Mu, but I do not understand why?” Edmund was startled when he felt that he sounded annoyed.“I mean, I am not saying that you should wear what you are comfortable with, you see… you are the prettiest person in the world,” Edmund said as he flicked her forehead lightly.“Ouch, brother! You… you are rude to me, you should n
James had run through a lot of red lights, and three police cars had been trailing behind him. He knew, as a soldier, that what he did was extremely unlawful and unprofessional.He accelerated his car, and the 30-minute journey was completed in 10 to 12 minutes.James went out of the car and ran towards the building; he was not in the mood to go to the parking lot and park the car, so he threw the key at the guard and said, "Take care of the car and also." He motioned towards the approaching police car and said, "Also, take care of those people, and I apologize for the trouble," before fleeing without waiting for them to arrive."Young Master Mu," The front desk clerk said and bowed her head to him; he simply nodded and did not bother asking them to notify Ryan of his arrival, as he usually does."What happened? Why is young master Mu in such a hurry?" She said this while dialing John's number."Master Xu, Young Master Mu is here; he... He was in a hurry and... I do not know what he w
Charles was full of excitement when he got to read the letter, he could not believe that the person he had been looking for all this while had appeared in front of them on her own. It was a blessing for them.But what he did not know was that… a blessing could turn into a curse anytime.Charles ran towards his friends and said, “Guys, let’s leave here, James has prepared a big surprise for us, let’s go,” he said and took Cherry’s hands in his.“What? Was this not the last destination for today? Or is he going to take us to the airport where we are about to go anyway,” Ricky and everyone was tensed already, they had never been separated before for this long and now that James was about to leave, it felt like everything was about to shatter.He was being grumpy on the surface but was all excited to see what he had planned for them now.“Leave her, I will take her with me,” Chris saw how Charles was holding Cherry’s hand, he slapped his hand and took his wife back to himself.“What the h
[ Notice:- Guys, I just started a new book name; kindly go and check it out! please support my new work just as you have done with this hope, I will appreciate your love a lot, than you]Lucy was nervous when she was about to leave and see James; she just did not know how to face him or what to tell him. She was not sure if she would be able to convince James of her disappearance or not."Come on, you can do it! "Do not be nervous like this," Edmund patted her back, even though he didn't want her to leave and see him, but he wanted her to be happy in the end. Lucy looked at him and walked away from there; she had to do it! It was not like James was an outsider or a stranger to her, but all she had to do was coax him. He must be sulking over her.She walked to the place she had to meet James, but when she saw him and his eyes fixated on the sky, she just stood there to admire him, saying, "This guy... he is about to go to the military." She said it with a
Edmund wanted to go there and take Lucy back; for some reason, he was ready to be tolerant of James Mu, but he could not take Ryan Song.He would never have allowed Lucy or Cherry to interact with that man if he hadn't been Cherry's brother. “Ok, fine! You see, If young master Song is here, then Cherry must be here too,” Morgan assured and dragged him away from there, “You already said that we cannot let them see us with Lucy, otherwise, it would really be easier for them to track Lucy.” Morgan reminded him, his own words. “Fine, I just do not know how to react; I just do not want her to be with those people anymore,” Edmund stated in anger, he wanted to take her away.“What the hell, Ed! Can you not tell that they were the people with whom our Little Birdie had been all this time?” Morgan knew Edmund was worried about Lucy but he had to understand that for Lucy, Edmund was a new person in her life and it would take a long time for her to build a relationship with him, but those peo
Cassandra was also in the same hotel as Ryan and Lucy; she had escaped jail and gone straight to the location where she had been told they would be, but what surprised her was Lucy's appearance; she had not anticipated her to be there as well!“Very well, Lucy Tang! If this is what you want, then do not blame me for what I am about to do!” A wicked grin appeared on her face as if she was about to do something unforgivable.It all happened because of that Cherry and her first target was her; if it were not for her, Ryan had never have broken their marriage agreement and even call the police to take her. He had provided all the shards of evidence to the police from the start of whatever she had done.The policemen at the station told her that she was being investigated for fraud, human trafficking, being involved in bullying, and a number of other charges.She felt she had been struck by light and her whole life turned upside down; just how could he do this to her? If he wanted to annu
"Why are you being like this brother?" Lillian exclaimed. She wanted to be with her father but her brother was not letting her be with him."I am not stopping you from doing anything, you can go and see him if you want to," He said, "But do not involve me in this," Rylan said and asked her to leave him alone but it seemed like Lillian was determined not to leave him, since she did not want to be only person to make up with their father, she wanted Ryan to understand and give their father a chance, he deserved it.
Ryan was stunned to see how Edmund took care of his sister. To be honest, he himself would not have been able to take care of her if it were not for him. When they were on their back to Country A, she did not say a word and have kept quite, but the way she talked to Edmund, it made him a little jealous. He wanted to be as close as him with her but she never was this close, or was it because she had always known what he did not Lucy back in the days, that mde her highly depressed that she leave them in end.
“If you want to work, go look for your own office, I want to be alone here.” General Mu stated in his usual strict tone, which made everyone think that he had just threatened their innocent Boss Mu, “Are you not going to talk anymore?” General Mu pointed at the phone. Elison said nothing to him and calmly repeated his question to the secretary, and in response, he was told that they would be arriving any time. But truth to be told, the shareholders had already arrived and they were hearing all the stories that were circulating and decided to hear the problems of the employees, as per the company policy, they decided to hold a hearing in the meeting that was about to be held in half an hour, and as per the rule, everyone in the office present, could see the hearing through the live video. “Do not worry, we will take care of this, and trust me we are taking it really seriously,” Joseph, one the closet and oldest friends of Elison Mu said, “I can never let anyone mistreat my best frien
General Mu was in the office with his brother, he had not been in the business for a long time but his brother, Elison, he kept on arguing him to join the business since he was about to take his once and for all retirement from the arm forces.Elison had argued with him to help him since he was getting old and it was hard for him to take care of all the things, to which Edward (General Mu) had declined him plainly, but when Elison blamed him for taking his son away with him to the services, inspiring him to be a doctor just like himself, and leaving him all alone to do all the work back at home, he just could not take it and agreed to him. And for the last two months, he had been forced to come to the office.Sitting at the chairman’s seat and singing all kind of papers from morning till night, under the eyes of his brother, he just could do nothing and sincerely help him with the business. A rumor circulated in the entire Mu Corporation that General Mu had forcefully acquired the se
Edmund paced to and fro in the room, and thinking about what he should do, if he should wake her up or let her be, but in the end, he walked to Cherry and found her sleeping so he took a chair and waited by his side for her to wake up, but it seemed like the careful sounds he made while walking and picking up the chairs were not careful enough and woke her up. Cherry had been sleeping since the moment she entered, just like Christ, she was given some injections too, to calm down her nerves, which led her to sleep deeply. But since Cherry had a lot of things in her mind that even the injection did not work on her and she had a lot of nightmares from her childhood, about how Lucy had to run, had to pay debts, work four jobs a day, provide for her, and whatnot all her life, that she had tried really hard to forget that it was dancing right in front of her eyes. But when she woke up, Edmund was the last person she had expected to see in front of her eyes. She was stunned to the core that
“I am not really sure, but I think, Cherry is not doing very well, and we might need a psychiatrist for her,” Charles expressed his worries. He knew what Cherry might be feeling, but the problem was that, that she might not want to go to the doctor for her mental illness, she just needed a normal counseling, and given the fact that how stubborn she was, she would never agree to it.“Hi, what are you worried about?" James said as he stood up and patted his shoulder, “Dude, you know what, our big brother Edmund,” He said and smiled proudly, “He is not only a successful businessman but, he also is a good psychiatrist, and he just went to my room to have a talk with Cherry.”“What? I was never told about that!” Charles said in shock. He really did not know about this face and asked how he knew to which James told him that it was Ryan who told him about this when they were on their way back to here, and he was also the one who helped Lucy overcome everything.“So, my dear brother, we need
Edmund walked towards the Cherry’s room and pushed the door, and he noticed that the door was locked from the inside. He tried to knock on the door, but no one answered, neither he hear any voices coming out of it.“What is going on?” He said to himself in a low voice, and then walked to the window, “Damn it! Even the windows are covered here!” He said and tried to take a peek inside the room. He just wanted to make sure that Cherry and Christ were not doing any thing intimate, which might make things inappropriate if he entered there without announcing his presence.Thankfully, he saw Lucy on the bed, lying all alone. After his suspicion was confirmed, he went to the door and knocked once again. To be honest, he had noticed the key in there, but he just did not want to badge in just like that, so he wanted to wait for them to open the door, but when they did not give him any response, he just decided to do some thing that he never would do to his sister, well… unless it was not very
James had been pacing back and forth because he was so concerned about Cherry. He wanted to see how Cherry was doing and wanted to talk to Christ, but they had locked the door from the inside. He waited for a while in front of his room, but when no one responded even after a while of knocking on the door and calling their names from the outside, he decided to walk away from there and go see what his mother was doing, and he even had to give a call to General Mu and his father. He had left his mother crying, and they were all worried about this situation.First of all, she was completely unaware of Cherry and her family's had been kidnapped. She only knew that she was pregnant and was taken by Ryan to some neat and clean place for the child’s birth, but when he took Cherry and Christ back to his home, she was surprised and welcomed them back, but when she got to know the back story of all these things, she was just shocked and stunned. She did not know how to react. Mrs. Mu wanted to t
“I am shocked that you are calling me auntie!” Mrs. Mu thought to herself as she looked at Edmund.“Should I not call you that?” Edmund said when he heard that, which made Mrs. Mu cover her lips with her both hands, and then she asked in a low voice, “Did I say that too loud? "Did I say it too loudly for you to hear?"Edmund could not help but smile at what she said, it was too cute to see her like this, “Yes, you did think it was too loud that even Ricky could hear that,” He said and looked at Ricky for the answer, to which Ricky just nodded at him in response and told her that he did hear what she just said.Mrs. Mu could not help but feel embarrassed, “I am really sorry. I never meant to be this rude. It is just that, You never addressed me in that way, so I was a bit overwhelmed and shocked with some kind of immense happiness, and that was why.” Mrs. Mu said as she tried to justify herself, which made Edmund chuckle, as he wiped her tears and asked her to calm herself down.“Calm
