Kyle?
Is he talking to me?
Faced with his silence, the man bent down to respectfully ask, “Kyle, are you here to see Mr. Seet? Well, he just left.”
Mr. Seet…
He sounds important.
The wheels in Juan’s head turned. Since I don’t know how I’m gonna find Mommy, maybe I could…
He cleared his throat and took on the regal stance of a leader.
“I was sent here by Mr. Seet!”
Mr. Seet?
Um… That’s a formal way to address his father. Well-mannered as always. I guess this is expected of the Seet family’s little prince.
Even so, the man remained cautious. “Kyle, did Mr. Seet, your father,” he emphasized, “give you any orders before sending you here?”
Juan was secretly delighted but showed none of it on the outside. All he did was nod his head as he quickly adapted to the situation.
“Ah, yes. My dad sent me here to look for a woman.”
The man’s eyes widened in realization. “A woman? Was it the one Mr. Seet said not to let out under any circumstances?”
As soon as Juan heard that, his eyes darkened. No wonder Mommy disappeared for such a long time. She was held here by that old pervert, Mr. Seet!
His small hands balled into fists by his sides. “Yes. That’s her. Bring me to her.”
“Alright. Follow me, Kyle!”
Soon after that, Juan was brought to the door of the room Nicole was held in. With a wave of his hand, he ordered, “Open the door!”
Several bodyguards who were on duty looked at each other and hesitated.
“Kyle, Mr. Seet ordered us not to let this woman out…”
“My dad personally told me to take this woman away! You dare go against my dad’s orders?”
“Well…”
The bodyguards were caught in a dilemma and also found it a little strange. Why would Mr. Seet allow his son to come alone and take the woman away?
Not to mention, Kyle had always been reluctant to speak. He would say less than ten words on a good day, but today, he was acting the exact opposite of how he usually was!
To be safe, one of the bodyguards suggested, “Kyle, I think we should call Mr. Seet first. It might be better to have someone with you when you send this woman back.”
Juan instantly panicked when he heard this.
If they make the call, I’ll be exposed. How will I save Mommy then?
“My dad needs to see her urgently. If this matter is delayed, I’ll tell my dad that you disobeyed a direct order from him and deliberately made things difficult for me. When that time comes, you’ll all be in deep trouble!”
Deliberately made things difficult for him?
Um…
Everyone knew that Kyle was the most beloved prince of the Seet family. Hence, they would never dare to cause trouble for him even if they were given nine lives!
