Chapter 826 Happiness And Sorrow (1/2)
Thinking about the picture of a whole family having the time of their lives on a vast meadow, riding horses and having fun, made Terence's heart swell.
Carla put away the carved wooden horse and looked at Terence. In his eyes, tenderness and affection overflowed. She reached out and affectionately rubbed his cheek against her palm.
”Honey, let's stay in the moment for now. I'm hungry...”
Terence broke free of his fantasies and began to feed her red grapes. He smiled and said, ”Okay. Tell me what you want to eat. I'll cook for you.”
Two days later.
In the study of the Su Mansion.
”Calm down, sir!”
A loud crash echoed through the place as soon as the words left Secretary Liu's lips.
”Unbelievable! I thought the An family had honor. How dared they collude with the Qu family against me?”
Gary took off his glasses angrily. Kicking over the chair beside him, he continued his angry tirade. ”Didn't they claim they would never set foot in the underworld? But that's what the Qu family has been known for! The damn underworld! They've done a variety of unspeakable things there. It's a slap in the face for the An family!
They've gone so far as to scheme with the Qu family and they dare accuse me of abusing my power and the public's trust? Those sons of bitches!” Gary was livid.
He continued wreaking havoc as he paced and ranted. A cup he had been using for two years did not even survive his war path. ”Now, see what I got. The superiors asked me to reflect and turn a blind eye to the An family whatever happens.
What did they mean when they said I've been deliberately finding fault with the An family? The An family made a slip up which killed someone. It was obvious that these leaders are trying to protect the An family!
Is it because they are powerful and influential, and Nicholas used to be an important national officer.”
Gary was so mad and he kicked over a chair. ”He's already dead! Nothing's stopping these superiors anymore! I really don't understand what these people were thinking.”
”Calm down, sir! The leaders must be thinking carefully about the situation since Nicholas had just passed away. After all, many of them were his subordinates.”
Secretary Liu went up and said, ”Sir, don't get too worked up. The An family's power had been strong these past few years. It's not the best time for us to challenge this. We'll have a better chance in the future!”
At Secretary Liu's wo
to the door. ”Get out!”
