A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 224

As soon as Kelly fastens the seat belt on, she hears Ellison sitting in the main driver's seat softly ask her, "Are we going to the hospital together?"

After thinking about it, she shakes her head, "No, I still have to go to the traffic police bureau today."

She, who has to check the whereabouts of Sunny, made an appointment with the traffic police that day, saying that she will go over to check on the surveillance video today.

Unexpectedly, Ellison, who has been respecting her opinion for a long time, refuses her for the first time today.

"We can keep checking the whereabouts of Sunny. There is no hurry to find it out in these few days." He glances at Kelly and sees that the dark circles under her eyes can’t be more obvious and that her beautiful eyes are filled with blood shots.

Ellison feels a burst of pain in secret.

Kelly shakes her head, “I have made an appointment with someone from the traffic police bureau. Originally, checking on the surveillance video is forbidden. It wasn’t until that I turned to the connection of the Quinn family that the upper-level heads nodded in approval.”

When it comes to such things as checking on surveillance video, generally speaking, it is not allowed at all unless there is an approval document from the public security bureau or the upper-level leaders.

In the past, the police could only check the surveillance based on the condition that there was an occurrence of serious criminal cases, such as kidnapping, murder, etc...

If it weren’t for relatively serious cases, the traffic police normally won’t allow it if someone insists on checking on the surveillance video.

Ellison also understands the reasoning behind this, "Then I will accompany you there first and later go to the Butler’s side. You can see if you can figure something out."

It won’t be a solution at all even if they keep investigating the case. The world is so vast that they simply don’t know where Butler arranged Sunny to go.

Although based on the current economic strength of Butler, she surely couldn’t have sent Sunny out of the country. But they can only temporarily exclude this possibility.

Because...

If Butler planned to let Sunny leave Kevin so that Kevin and Sunny could never see each other, it would have been possible that she might have spent a lot of money and turned to a lot of connections to send Sunny abroad.

Kelly nods, “Okay. As I have been checking on the surveillance video alone over these days, I feel that I have a headache.”

At first, she was fine with checking on the surveillance video and could still tell some things. But as the time passed by, whatever she saw in the surveillance video, she thought that they were exactly the same later on.

In that case, she surely couldn’t tell Sunny and others apart!

In her eyes, it's just a human form!

Taking advantage of the period when they are waiting for the green light, Ellison smiles and reaches out to rub her head, "After you are done with everything in this period, I will take you out for fun."

He knows that Kelly is interested in hanging around and also knows that Kelly especially likes to go out for fun as well as taste the food everywhere.

Before she got together with him, she liked to eat and drink with Sunny in the streets and alleys across the city.

Hearing Ellison's words, Kelly looks at him with surprise. And after half a second, she suddenly hugs him, "Ellison, I super love you!" “Bah!” After saying that, she kisses his face!

She knows that Ellison will never lie to her. Because he does mean his words every time.

After he said he would take her out for fun, he surely will fulfill it. And he promised that he would take her to enjoy the delicious food everywhere, he surely will get it done as well.

In Kelly’s opinion, never will Ellison lie to her. For the promises he made to her, he surely will fulfill them.

The car behind them suddenly rings an ear-piercing horn sound, startling Kelly. She quickly comes to her senses, only to find that Ellison is looking at her attentively. Then her small face quickly turns blush.

She whispers, skimming her lips, "Why are you looking at me? The green light is on!"

Ellison gives a light laugh and then quickly starts the car.

The black Maybach quickly drives towards the destination as if it were an arrow getting detached from the string.

It is very quiet in the car. And both of them are silent.

Kelly closes her eyes and leans against the back of the seat. The things that have happened over the past few days have made her exhausted. and she has not had a good sleep for several days.

Just when Kelly is drowsy, Ellison suddenly speaks up, "Kelly, let's have a baby."

His voice is very soft. But it makes Kelly, who was originally drowsy, wake up at once.

She closes her eyes and doesn't know what to do, she doesn't even have the courage to open her eyes to look at Ellison.

She has always been avoiding the topic of bearing children.

Seeing that Kelly doesn’t say anything, Ellison only faintly narrows his eyes.

The car was filled with an awkward air for a while.

After a long time, Kelly suddenly whispers, "Okay."

Ellison thinks he has heard her words wrong. But when he turns his head to look at her, he sees that Kelly is biting her lower lip with a red face.

Her shy appearance seems to better confirm what she just said.

She finally… said yes!

That day, Ellison sends several large red packets inside the company's senior leadership group chat as well as the internal subordinate staff group chat respectively.

As for how presumptuous the amount of the red packet...

Well, everyone almost assumes they are getting a year-end bonus.

The very few people who come to congratulate Ellison are also rewarded with a big red packet by Ellison alone.

With grease all over his fat face, Tyler is already in his forties. His hair is not as thick and dense as that of a man in his prime. Instead, he is bald-headed.

With a height of 170 CM, he looks plump with a big belly, looking like a person who is pregnant for several months.

Tyler smiles and says, "Mrs. Kelly, you are too polite." He smiles flatteringly. And his intention to please Kelly can’t be more obvious.

"Mr. Ellison, Mrs. Kelly, the fact that you can come here simply makes our bureau shine!"

After smiling and exchanging a few pleasantries with Director Spencer, Ellison directly asks him to take them to the review room for surveillance video.

Amid the confused look in the guard’s eyes, Tyler serves them both a glass of water. Only then does he back out.

Kelly and Ellison check on the surveillance video one after another. Then Kelly rubs her swollen and painful eyes. The soreness caused by the excessive use of her eyes makes her very uncomfortable.

Because of the fact that she has been sitting still in one place without moving for a long time, there is also a sore feeling between her waist and femur as well.

Ellison on the side suddenly reaches out to help her rub her sore position, startling Kelly. Then she softens her body and lets him give her a massage.

After Kelly feels comfortable, she twists her body. And Ellison gets her point and smoothly withdraws his hand.

Turning off the monitoring screen on the computer monitor, Kelly stands up and moves her body a bit, saying aloud, "Okay, let's go and meet Butler."

Smiling, Ellison also nods, "Well, let's go."

As a qualified hen-pecked man, Ellison surely won’t say no to what his wife has said!

They drive to the villa in the suburbs.

"When did you buy this villa?"

Kelly steps on the thick leaves directly with her feet. And the dry leaves crunch because of the force on Kelly's feet. And the leaves, which were dry because of the lack of moisture, become fragmented.

The villa also looks a bit old. The original white walls have now turned beige. Because of the fact that the water pipes are in disrepair, the water inside has flowed out. Moreover, with the rain marks on rainy days, the external beige walls have some rust-colored traces.

Tall trees are planted around the villa. Since it is the summer days, bright green leaves sprout all over the branches.

Logically speaking, this is a vibrant scene. However, with this house standing alone within a radius of ten kilometers around and the tall leaves almost blocking the sky above, the villa looks somewhat inexplicably bleak instead.

It is obviously a hot summer day. But at this time, Kelly suddenly feels chilling.

She rubs her arms and unconsciously leans towards Ellison's body. Then Ellison tales her by the shoulders and brings her into his arms.

"I bought it some years ago." Ellison opens the heavy door while explaining, "I wanted to use it as somewhere for tourist visiting and vacation. But I gave it up because it was in such a desolate place."
