Chapter 202 Mother Churu (2/2)
Without replying to her request, Morris Liu held his phone tightly before he threw it on the wall with great force. The sudden commotion inside his office made his assistant rushed her way inside.
”Sir!” Assistant Lin called out as her gaze traveled to the broken vase and some of the small furniture on the floor along with Morris Liu's phone.
”Get out!” Venting his frustration to his concerned assistant, Morris Liu growled that startled Assistant Lin before she instantly bowed her head and left the room after spouting her apologies.
Panting for air as he could feel his heart tightened, Morris Liu grinded his teeth as he knew that despite ignoring and hurting her for that— she still pretended that it was fine. ”Lexi…” He mumbled through his gritted teeth.
Just two weeks ago, when the news that Lexi returned and she dropped by on his office, he received a call from the damnable Kong Shuren that night. The man congratulated him for being reunited with his beloved fiancee and as usual, he left him a good threat as his ender. Therefore, Morris Liu's situation turned messier as Kong Shuren ensured him that he'd 'protect' them if ever they get involved with their business and promised that they'd keep their mouth shut— just like him.
”Kong Shuren…” He muttered as a dangerous glint flashed across his eyes.
Morris Liu's eyes then landed on his cracked phone on the floor before he strode towards it and picked it up. Fortunately, it was still working despite the screen having several cracks. Without a second's hesitation, he speed-dialed Lexi's number.
Placing it in front of his ear, Morris Liu waited for the line to connect. It only took one ring when Lexi immediately picked up the call.
”Brother Mo?” Her voice had a touch of relieved and her gentleness immediately seeped through the other end. However, instead of being moved, her voice was akin to a dagger that pierced Morris Liu's heart.
'Why? How can you still sound so loving even after being ignored?' He grumbled inwardly as a piece of his heart fell off again.
”Let's meet at 8 pm at Hao's restaurant.” With that said note, Morris Liu hung up without waiting for her to say anything. He could not wait a little longer. The more she hangs around him, the more Kong Shuren would eye on her. Hence, he must prevent that from happening before it's too late.
Pressing the button that connected to his secretary's desk, Morris Liu commanded. ”Clear my schedule after 17:00. Also, book a plane ticket to Country Y.”
”Yes, Sir.” Assistant Lin sternly responded. Her voice sounded she hasn't coped with her boss's sudden aggressiveness. Still, she was able to respond as a professional and executed the orders afterward.
Upon giving his orders, Morris Liu weakly sat on his executive chair as he heavily sighed. ”Right, I should just tell her about it and make her return to country y. Just six months… six more months and we're done.” He mumbled as he made a decision.
He could not bear it anymore. He didn't want to hurt her anymore. Therefore, he should tell her and send her back to Country Y. In that way, she could stay away from this mess until everything was settled.
Unbeknownst to him, just when he decided to come clean and let her know about his plan, Kong Shuren also had a plan in his mind which almost made him insane.
