His Purchased Wife novel Chapter 136

"Dad…" Aurora ran into Ethan's Arms smiling ear to ear. "I missed you so much, dad."

Ethan King hugged his daughter with closed eyes. She was the only one who mattered to him. His Angel. His daughter.

"How are you doing my love?" He asked, kissing her on the head.

Aurora looked at her father, her old man. "I am doing perfectly fine, dad but you look stressed. What happened to you? Why the dark circles under your eyes dad?" She asked, raising her chin in the air.

Ethan chuckled, "my love, you are my sunshine."

"Come in now, we can't stand the whole day in the driveway," Ethan checked the house. Once they settled inside, she asked the question she was dying to ask. "Dad, have you tried to find out about Gabriel? I am worried about him."

Ethan's body hardened, he fisted his hand, but kept his expression normal he spoke, "Aurora, we are meeting after a month and instead of spending time with the old man you are interested in his whereabouts, you hurt me too much."

"It's not like that dad. It's just…" she stopped and sighed deeply, "it's just I am worried about him. Tell me please, have you found out something about him?"

"My men are trying but till now nothing came out."

Aurora nodded. "Yeah, he didn't like using technology much…" she exhaled deeply, touching her fingers.

"How is work going on? And what about Liam? Is he treating you fine?"

Aurora smiled, hearing Liam's name. "Yes. He is treating me fine.

He is not as bad as initially thought. He needed to be taught a few things but I consider him as my friend now and I will teach me everything about friendship."

Ethan scowled. "Good friend?"

"Yes, chill out dad. Anyway, we met after so long. Let's go for lunch, what say?" She asked excitedly like a child. Ethan accepted her demand and they both went to spend the father-daughter day together. Ethan tried hard to ask Aurora about Liam but she didn't give him any satisfactory answers. But from her talks, he sensed one thing and that Aurora has started liking Liam and that gave him hope for his daughter's happiness.

Liam's charm might not be showing yet but it was working on her, slowly.

It was evening, Ethan needed to go back to his city, he couldn't leave his territory for long especially when he was at war with Mexicans. But before going back he needed to meet Ryan Knight to tell him what he could lose if things didn't go the way he wanted.
