Chapter 323 - His Bait. (1/2)

When they reached Kris's private jet, Lena was astonished how different hers and his were. Of course, hers was just a gift from Madam Li... but still, there was an enormous difference between the two.

There were four main seats in the area.

Lena sat down on the seat across from Kris.

There was a small table between Kris and her because Kris usually continued to do his work on the plain. As the plane set off, Kris gave Lena a sweet smile and then looked at some paperwork that he had to catch up on.

After 10 minutes, Kris put down his papers and looked at Lena who was quietly reading a book on her phone.

”There was something you wanted to tell me yesterday?” Kris pointed out.

”Oh..” Lena looked at him. ”...”

”What is it?” Kris was more curious now. He originally thought that it was just the topic of marriage but he knew there was something else on Lena's mind.

Lena sighed. ”There's not really a good time for things, but..”

Lena reached into her bag and grabbed out a small bag. She placed it on the table and pushed it toward Kris.

”What is this?” Kris asked.

”I don't know.” Lena replied.

Kris took the bag and opened it. It was a flash drive. He grabbed his laptop and connected it to his laptop.

At the moment, Lena silently held her breath. She could already feel the change of atmosphere.

”Where did you get this?” Kris asked without changing his tone of voice. His eyes were still glued to the screen.

Lena did not reply.

Kris took a deep breath and closed the laptop. He removed the flash drive out and tossed it back into the middle of the table.

”I don't like you meeting strangers without me.” Kris reminded Lena.

”It was a life and death situation,” Lena replied.

”If someone random called you and said I was kidnapped, would you instantly go there?”

”This and that is not the same. Plus, James was with me.”

”James isn't me though.”

”Are you angry with me?” Lena asked. She could feel his negative emotions exploding out of his brain.

”No. I am not angry with you. I am angry with him.”

”Ace?”

When Lena said his name, she could feel that the name also triggered something in Kris. She was not quite sure if it was a good trigger or a bad one.

”You never told me that he was so....”

”Stupid?” Kris finished for Lena.

Lena was going to say handsome but she didn't correct Kris. ”He reminded me a lot of you. Kinda make me feel sad for him... knowing a man like him fell for someone as horrible has Becca.”

”....” Kris sat back on his chair. ”Are you trying to guilt-trip me? I already did him a favor when I didn't kill that cockroach. And what did he do? He turned around my back, yet again, and met up with you when he knew I was out of the city. Should have just killed her on the spot.” Kris grumbled.
