Their surprise reached the peak when they really found him there. What had brought the Almighty CEO Li Muchen to their home and with so many cars?
Muchen just stood there expressionless as he watched the three of them walk towards his direction.
He had not been able to sleep that night. After hearing Sara cry, her suppressed tears, he wanted so badly to give her a hug and rip apart those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds who had caused her pain. But he couldn"t. He only found himself outside her apartment that night, A part of the apartment was still lit. He could only guess that it was her room.
He tried calling her, but what was he going to say? what was he going to do? At least, he was going to rea.s.sure her that he would handle this for her. But then, he would be exceeding his jurisdiction. Sara might not like it. He could only let her do what ever she wanted to do tonight. But this would never happen to her again. He would make sure of it.
He didn"t know when he stood there till it was almost dawn. Then he received a call from Sara. When he heard her quiet voice, he so much wanted to knock on her door. But he had to restrain himself. She had simply said "I"m sorry Mr Li, I can"t report to your place today. Something urgent came up." He was her employer, of course, she had to report to him.
But he had been hoping to hear "Help me" Even though he could do that with or without her asking, he still wanted to know whether she depended on him. But he knew Sara. She wouldn"t.
He was really tired of hearing "Sorry" from her.
He agreed. Told her he would inform Heya, Told her to bring him dinner tonight no matter what and concluded with. "it"ll be fine"
"it"ll be fine? what did he mean by that?" Sara wondered. She had not told him she was having a hard time. She looked at the clock. It was just 5 in the morning. They had to leave this apartment today. Jianjun had come to remind her earlier. According to him, Mr Chu had offered his place especially since they were still at the hospital. They were going to stay at his place before Jianjun gets them a new apartment. Thankfully, he had a lot of money saved up. She had been tempted to ask for an advance salary when she called Mr Li. But she knew she would be crossing her limit. Besides, she just got employed.
Joreen had insisted on packing with them. They had wanted her to go to school while they both settled the issue of gathering their belongings but Joreen had insisted on staying also.
This house, not elegant, not big, it was nothing. But it was their home. And this home had been s.n.a.t.c.hed away from them. The thought bright tears to Jianjun"s eyes. He felt he was a useless father. A disgrace to manhood. He couldn"t even protect his family.
Sara couldn"t stop blaming herself. She had cried the entire night. If not for her, her father wouldn"t have been subjected to this. Nothing hurts her more than seeing her father looking so dejected. Ah! Mrs Liu, Weiyoung and Mr Liu, I"ll ruin you all. Even if it sends me to my grave! Sara swore.
"Mr Li, what brings you here?" Mr Liu was the first to ask.
Mrs Liu and Weiyoung also greeted him with smiling faces
Muchen was formally dressed. He looked like he was going for a business meeting. And had especially came over with a convoy even if he liked moving about by himself. He needed this people to see "The vicious Mr Li" most people knew him as.
He didn"t bother greeting them as he went straight to the point and asked
"Did you like my gift?"
"What? what gift?" Mr Liu asked.
Weiyoung seemed to understand what was going on and gasped in shock. She had thought of the possibility that it was either Mr Li or someone else since she had heard from Jinyong and also seen for herself how Li Muchen was with Sara. "It...it can"t be"
Muchen smirked when he saw Weiyoung"s reaction. He pointed at her and said. "I guess your daughter is a bit smarter than you both. You can ask her"
They both didn"t even have time to realise the fact that he had just called them dumb and looked at Weiyoung.
"You, you know Mr Li personally?" Mr Liu asked excitedly
This was good news if they both knew each other well. Who cared about the Mo family when being compared to the Li"s?
Weiyoung shook her head, trying to tell her mother it wasn"t as she was imagining but Mrs Liu was no longer paying attention to her and looked at Muchen.
"Ah! Mr Li. I had no idea you knew my daughter personally. Did you send her a gift? oh no! Let"s go sit inside and discuss"
Mrs Liu became a total chatterbox.
