Chapter 248 - Lets give them a fair chance!! (1/2)

”Oops!! My bad. How could I leave such an easy lead to reach me? Tsk, tsk... I have let down the efforts of my granddaughter ”,  Lifen said with a pout.

Murphy looked at her shook his head as he lowered his head thinking, 'Was this really that easy. It almost took twelve years to find her and still there was someone who doesn't have any idea of this'

Thinking this something more important cropped in his head.

”But tell me something, why were you kept hidden like that? Even after so many efforts, our efforts went all futile”, he asked.

”I don't think there is something deep into this. It was just a wish which I made and like a doting grandfather, my grandpa fulfilled it for me”, Lifen said without giving much thought to it.

She had never found it fishy. She always thought that her grandfather was just a little overprotective for her as she was the only one left for him after her parents passed away.

Seeing her left alone, he too can feel her loneliness.  So when she asked him to let her be with the Wu family, he readily accepted and even made necessary arrangements so no one could recognize her.

Murphy  couldn't probe any further even when he found something amiss in between. He just nodded his  head in understanding.

After that they completed their lunch with little here and there talks. Soon the waiter came with bill and Murphy paid the bill. Though Lifen insisted to pay the bill but he asked to treat him back next time in celebration for being successful and the position of the CEO in Li Corporation.

When they were about to part in the parking lot, Murphy asked her, ”So Ms.Li what are your plans next? We can't keep Deming in dark for whole life. He needs to know the truth too or else it can bring further inconvenience in future too”.

Lifen too knew this. Truth can't be held in dark for a  life time. Sooner or later he will surely find this too. But at this moment, she can't bring it to him.

She wanted to give him sometime to settle comfortably first. He was already so agitated, if he comes to know this now,  he would truly take some wrong steps to punish Jie.

Pondering for some time she said, ”I think at this moment it would be better if we keep this within ourselves for sometime. The first thing that I want to deal in our relationship is about Ms.Long”

”We need to kill the rumours about them completely first. Though Wang Corporation has given an official statement on behalf of Deming. But the people are still thinking that it's Deming's fault as  he has abandoned her mercilessly after promising her the marriage”, she added.

”But...”, Murphy was about to raise his suspicion about this task for not been easy but Lifen didn't wait and completed her words first.

”We have to make her confess that everything between them were rumours that was completely created by her and I know well how to make her do it”

After discussing all this Lifen went back to her work. When she reached her office, Erica quickly came to give her heads up about  the commotion that happened earlier in the office.

”Boss, something serious happened in your absence!” Erica said hurriedly as she closed the office door behind her.
