In the Gu's mansion, Nelson was sitting alone at the table in the main villa, and Gavin had been taking care of him beside him for ten years.
The more crowded the servants around him, the more desolate and lonely Nelson looked now. Looking at the dishes on the table, Nelson didn't eat for a long time.
"Mr Nelson, don't you like the food today? I'll tell the cook to prepare something new."
Gavin saw Nelson put down his chopsticks. His wrinkled face was full of worry. He glanced at the door from time to time.
The young master didn't bring young lady back, but he himself disappeared.
"It's been a few days since we met last time. Why don't he call me? He is getting more and more annoying."
Nelson put down his face. Although he was old, he was shrewd. But the wrinkles were dense, indicating that he was worried.
He hoped that there was some new progress since Jonas did not come back home these days, but a few days passed and it was time to bring her back home.
Nelson was speechless. When Gavin saw it, he was so nervous about his young master. He smiled and said to Nelson, "Maybe it's because the two of them have made up and they are happy now."
"Happy? No matter how excited they are, he should at least give me a piece of news. If he make up with Linda, he should take her back. Isn't it improper staying outside?" Nelson rolled his eyes and became angrier.
Linda was the one whom everyone wanted to go back home and it was improper to hide her outside?
Gavin smiled awkwardly. He knew that he couldn't save young master this time. Every time he spoke for him in front of Nelson, he would risk his life.
Nelson scolded Jonas as he was mad at him. But Jonas was his grandson after all, and he had been worried about him since he did not come back home these days. Nelson could hardly sit at the table. He ran to the couch and dialed the number in Jonas's office.
The staff in the office called William in unison when they received the number from the Gu's mansion.
"Mr. Nelson, what can I do for you?"
William had always been the bridge between Nelson and Jonas, and he was also the one who was familiar with the Gu's mansion in the CEO office, so he respected Nelson more than anyone else.
By now, he was clearer what Nelson called here for.
When he thought of the fact that the boss hadn't shown up for several days, the group of people in the secretarial room were all very busy. They even had to split up their strength to deal with Aron's men.
William had tears in his eyes.
"Where is your boss? In the company?"
asked Nelson in a hurry as soon as the phone was connected, but his concern seemed to be full of thorns and he didn't want to be noticed. William had been accustomed to the attitude of Nelson to Jonas, and could not help smiling.
But later, the smile on her face gradually froze. Nelson was looking for the boss? 'The boss has been staying at home these days, hasn't he?'
William's smile froze on his face as he had noticed that there was something wrong.
"Boss didn't come to the company these days. I thought he was at home... Mr. Nelson, is there anything wrong?" William swallowed hard and asked. A touch of remorse appeared on his face instantly.
The boss had been gone for a few days, but he, as his personal secretary, didn't notice anything and even thought that he was at home.
But it was not all his fault. Jonas didn't like others to ask where he was going.
Hearing this, Nelson was in a better mood than Jonas's secretary. He guessed that Jonas might have a good relationship with Melinda.
He was still very optimistic. He said to William, "It's okay. You can go to work now."
After hanging up the phone, Nelson called Melinda's number. His memory has begun to go, but Melinda's number was very clear.
It was lunch break. Melinda was about to go out for lunch when she received a call from the Gu's mansion. She was a little surprised, too. Since the lunch that day, Jonas had never appeared.
Could it be him now?
"Hello." Melinda made a gesture to her colleague and sat down again. Her voice was clear and somewhat perturbed.
She didn't feel anything when Jonas was chasing after her. Keeping in touch after these days made her nervous.
But she began to comfort herself secretly in her heart. See, what Jonas said was just a joke. Otherwise, he would not have disappeared for so many days. If he suffered from a blow, she would first not believe it.
