Ice and Fire novel Chapter 850

At the Chu Family's villa.

The moment Lawrence reached home, he saw Mike sitting leisurely on the sofa while playing on his phone.

When Lily saw Lawrence, she walked to him and greeted him politely, "Mr. Lawrence, you're home."

"Yes. Have you packed everything I need?" Lawrence asked. "Yes, Mr. Lawrence. I've already packed your suitcase," Lily replied.

"Okay, that's good. You can go back to your work now," Lawrence said.

Then he walked to the living room where Mike was sitting.

Mike was playing a mobile game. When he saw Lawrence sat in front of him, he asked, "Dude, tell me honestly, where were you yesterday? I've asked Lily and she told me you didn't come home last night."

"It's nothing important," Lawrence replied. He then took the document on the coffee table and checked. He found that the information was all complete.

Mike peered at Lawrence and said, "I suspect that you're gonna do something that's not decent."

However, Lawrence ignored his words. Instead, he said to him, "I'll be gone for a couple of days. What's your plan?"

Mike put his phone aside and thought for a moment. Then he told Lawrence in a serious tone, "Since you won't be here, I want to have a rest. Maybe I'll travel abroad."

"When will you leave?" Lawrence asked. "A week later," Mike answered.

He felt that Lawrence wanted to tell him something so he asked, "What's wrong?"

Lawrence looked at Mike and said, "I need your help to take care of someone."

"Someone? Who?" Mike asked. He was astonished because as far as he knew, all of Lawrence's loved ones were in Hong Kong. He didn't have any idea who would he be looking after.

"Aria Liu," Lawrence answered at once.

'Aria Liu?' Mike thought. It was a girl's name. He was confused. "Who is she?" Mike confusedly asked.

Lawrence didn't intend to hide anything from Mike so he simply replied, "My woman." Anyway, if he didn't tell him now, he would still eventually tell him in the future. So he decided to tell him as early as now.

"Oh," Mike said almost in a whisper. He seemed to have already understood what Lawrence meant. "Since you are leaving, you worry about her, right?"

Lawrence nodded his head and said, "Yes." He took a deep breath first before he continued, "I don't know why but recently, I always feel that something will happen. It's so strange."

"What do you think will happen?" Mike asked. "The whole city is under your control. The Chu Family and the JC Group are both under your control. You can simply do whatever you want. What are you worrying about?" he added. Mike strongly believed that Lawrence didn't need to worry about anything. He was a powerful person in this city. Besides, Mike could use his father's power and connections to help Lawrence. For him, it was his obligation.

"Mike," this time, Lawrence's tone was low and wasn't so cold and bossy as usual.

Mike could feel that Lawrence still have something on his mind so he didn't say anything. He waited for him to speak up.

"You know my family well, right?" Lawrence asked. Lawrence thought to himself, 'Mike grew up with me. I was only five years when I came to this city and since then, he became my best friend. We have been friends for so many years so he knows everything about me.'

Mike nodded his head and replied, "Yes, of course."

"The military's residential compound is quite chaotic. Things that happened to my grandfather and my father many years ago still affect our current lives. Some people related to those things still exist," Lawrence explained. He remembered the woman he met at the bar last night. He was certain that she was one of them.

"Yeah," Lawrence agreed. "I also called some of my friends there so I think there will really be no problem." He was confident that Violet would recover this time.

"Lawrence, remember to give me an update on Violet's situation," Alice reminded him. She wanted to know the updates on Violet's treatment.

"I will," Lawrence replied.

At this moment, the airport announced that all passengers must board the plane now so Mike said, "All right, Lawrence, you should go now. It's time."

Lawrence turned his back to go to the security area. Mike and Alice felt miserable while watching his receding figure.

"Mike, do you think Violet will be all right?" Alice asked after Lawrence was out of their sight. She was still worried. After all, a cosmetic surgery was risky that it could possibly fail.

"She will be fine," Mike replied with confidence. "Don't you believe in Greg's expertise?"

Alice quickly nodded her head and replied, "Of course, I do." She truly trusted Greg's capabilities.

Mike asked again, "Do you believe in Lawrence?" "Yes, I do," Alice replied at once.

"Then, you don't need to worry. Violet will be fine," Mike reassured Alice.

"And you know what?" Mike seemed to remember something. "For many years of being with Lawrence, I have already drawn a conclusion that he never fails in everything."

Alice suddenly felt confident so she said, "Well, I think you're right. I also feel that Lawrence is like a God to all of us."

Mike agreed, "That's right." He patted Alice on the shoulder and said, "Let's go. I'll treat you to lunch. Call Tim."
