Chapter 731 You werent there! (1/2)

After having lunch without any other disturbances, Lu Tian tried to persuade his wife to go home and rest. However, she protested against him without any plans to agree.

As the CEO, she cannot take any more days off. After all, she had already been away for too long during her recovery.

So, left with no other choice, Lu Tian could only agree with a heavy heart and drive her back to De L'amour.

Minutes after their drive from Rosewood Hotel, his metallic silver Lotus Evora pulls up in front of the fashion company.

Knowing that Lu Tian was sulking over her protests, Yue Ling leans over to him and gives him a quick on the cheeks before pushing the door open and jumps out. She doesn't want to think or plan to see what he will do if he was one step faster than her.

She places the handle of her workbag over her shoulder then spun around the face to the car and waves bye to him. However, instead of walking away, she gestures for him to leave first.

Lu Tian stares at her with slightly heavy eyelids. His face held no expression, but that was only for a split second before he laughs and listens to her like a good child.

As his car drove away from De L'amour, Yue Ling watched until it was no longer in sight. She turns around and makes her way to the fashion company.

Remembering something, she glances up at the sky and murmurs her thoughts aloud.

”Hm, I wonder if Liu Shan made it back safely.”

As her figure disappears inside De L'amour, the people passing by through the street carried on with their way. Not too far from where she had been dropped off, a woman had been watching the entire scene unfold.

She was a slender woman with brown hair, and she wore a red coat with black heels. She held her handbag at her side and her features were very bewitching.

However, despite her attractive looks, all the passerby couldn't help but shiver at the sight of her.

Everyone also didn't forget to walk around her as if to keep a safe distance.

That is because of her expression. She doesn't hesitate to hide anything and allows her emotions to be seen on her face. Anyone could see that she was a woman with malicious intentions.

She stares with glaring eyes in the direction Yue Ling had gone then tilts her head back to look at the dark building of De L'amour.

”Just you wait. I will make sure that everything you care about belongs to me.”

Her head then turns in the direction Lu Tian's car had driven off and a menacing glimmer flash in her eyes.

”Including your man.”

She raises her free hand and flicks her hair behind her back before walking away. Her coat was bright and one that stood out, but the second she left the spot she had been standing, her figure blended right into the crowd.

It was as if she was never there on the scene and was only walking by.

Inside De L'amour, Yue Ling did not enter the elevator but had walked to the back of the first floor. She stood in the security room with eyes staring onto one of the many monitor screens.

”Should I inform the police?”

The security guard asks without looking at her. There were three large monitors set up in the room. Displayed on each screen were multiple smaller camera images as each one captured the surrounding premises of De L'amour.

However, Yue Ling and the security guard had their attention on one screen only.

Yue Ling doesn't answer right away but stares at the screen. Like the other screens, this one was only showing a live scene of people passing by. However, that is because she already saw what she needed.

Her bluish-green eyes then look away to another screen. Unlike the one she had been looking at, this one captures the back figure of a woman in a bright red coat walking away.

The moment Lu Tian parked the car in front of De L'amour, she was already aware of the woman's presence. However, knowing Lu Tian would worry too much, she decided to play ignorance.

She stares at the person on the screen for a long second before turning away and walks out of the security room.

”Leave her be. If she shows up again, notify me.”

Minutes after leaving the room, Yue Ling arrived on the highest floor of De L'amour. She enters her office and places her work bag on top of her desk, then removes her coat.

*Bam—!
