Chapter 415 - The visitor (2/2)
”And there is no problem at home? Nothing that might make him want to act up?”
”What are you saying?” Edward asked, moving forward in his seat.
Amy reached out to hold him back, not wanting Edward to make a scene. The principal was a little jolted at Edward's tone and thanked the universe that this was not Gu Zhou's guardian.
”It's only standard questions I have to ask Mr Wu, I am not implying anything.”
”Forgive my boyfriend, he's just as worried about Gu Zhou.”
What Edward worried about was the fact that he couldn't punch this obnoxious man in the face. Neither could he threaten him later as that would be very bad for Gu Zhou.
”We aren't going to punish him because up until now Gu Zhou hasn't gotten into any trouble but we are going to keep investigating what happened.”
”Thank you, Mr Geoffrey.”
”He can have the rest of the day off; Mrs Norm hasn't forgiven him yet and I would hate to see her get upset again.”
”I completely understand.”
”Why the hell is all of this happening?” said a frustrated Amy.
Amy paced in front of the fireplace, a wine glass in her hands and a worried look on her face.
This was the second incident in the span of four days, involving someone that couldn't even hurt a fly. Something was terribly wrong somewhere; even Edward was beginning to see it.
”Should I punish him, get him a therapist? Am I missing something?”
”Amy calm down okay? We will figure this out together.”
Amy kept on pacing though, what if Gu Zhou did something again that led to him being expelled?
That was a very bad thing to have on your report card in this country, she didn't want her brother ruining his future before it even began. Edward went to Amy and took her in his hands, placing a peck on her cheeks.
”Sweetheart, you're not going to achieve anything with all this pacing. How about you go lie down, while I have a nice chat with him.”
”No, no chatting. Let him stay there and think about what he has done.”
Edward chuckled; he had never understood that punishment. His father had made him do it a lot, Edward had either slept off all the time or played games.
He never once thought about the sins he had committed. He really wanted to make love to Amy but she was already very agitated and wouldn't let him so he made her lie down.
Edward didn't go home that night until he made sure that both Amy and Gu Zhou were both okay.
He didn't actually want to leave them but he had some security clearance to take care of and a meeting with one of his intel's.
”Welcome back boss, you have a visitor.” Viktor – his right-hand man – greeted as Edward came down from his car.
”Who is it?” asked Edward.
”Alexa Yang.”
