Chapter 122 - Engagement (4) (1/2)

At the terrace, everyone was beaming with excitement. The young CEO of the country was going to get engaged.

Soft drinks were continously being served to the guest. Several round tables were arranged to accommodate the guests. Everyone was waiting for the couple of the day to arrive on the stage.

Lifen was standing at the corner was sharply inspecting the surroundings. She had tried to personally inform Deming about this but he ignored her and walked away without talking. Now the only way left to her was being alert so that she can notice any suspicious thing going around.

She was also randomly gazing at the entrance finding Murphy. She knew if he gets to know about this he would quickly take appropriate actions. She was waiting for him to arrive.

She again took her phone and dialed his number, hoping that it might get answered. The call was suddenly picked up. As the call got connected, Lifen said in a frantic voice, ”Uncle Murphy, there is something terrible gonna happen in the ceremony. Please get Deming alerted. I tried to inform him but he didn't paid any heed to my presence and just walked away. On my way her, a lady told me that someone has planned his murder and...”, she panicked so much that almost forgot to breathe, if it wasn't Murphy's interruption in between she might have suffocated herself.

”Little Lifen, calm down first. Take deep breaths. I know, don't worry. I have already alerted the security personnel and the guards around him. I can't inform him about this at this moment but I am investigating. Don't worry, nothing will happen to him”, he said to calm Lifen. He knows well how much she cares for him.

He has seen their friendship which wasn't only friendship but more than that. He has witnessed the spark, the compatibility and the love between them. So it was natural that she would be worried as hell.

Knowing that Murphy has already taken necessary steps in regard to this sudden threat, Lifen heaved a breath of relief. But still her heart didn't allowed her to put her guards down. She can't afford something severe to happen.

She was still gazing the surrounding with her alerted eyes, when Murphy spoke through the phone again, ”I will be soon reaching there after visiting the CCTV surveillance room. Wait for me and don't panic or do anything rash if you find something suspicious. Just alert the guard around and they will take the action. Deming will be arriving soon”.

With that the phone got disconnected and soon the host announced the arrival of the couple.

Accompanying everyone's gaze, Lifen too looked at the way from where the couple came walking. When noticed, she can feel Deming eyes were continously fixed on her, not leaving her even for a slightest moment.

Not only she, but everyone present there could feel his warmth filled gaze toward her. Soon the guest started murmuring among themselves.

”What's wrong with Mr.Wang? Why I feel his eyes is filled with love for someone else?”

”I feel so too. He isn't looking at his fiancee but at that girl behind. Do you know to which family she belong. She is quite beautiful”.

”I feel Mr.Wang doesn't want this engagement. He is under pressure ”.

”Your logic seems to be right but don't you know he is The Great CEO of the country, born with intelligence and guts. Who can pressurised him? It's impossible for anyone. And don't you know he has some connections with dark world too?”
