President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 300

When he heard my question, he did not look surprised but asked me, “How do you know this?”

Apparently, he knew about it.

And he did not tell me.

I can understand this. After all, I knew I can’t help.

It was just obvious that he, like James, suspected that Sean contacted me when he asked me that.

“James called me.” I told him the truth.

After Ming heard it, his frown was slightly relieved, and he nodded, “It seems that the last time someone contacted him was a week ago. Everyone said that he had not seen him this week. But before that, the Giant group was in a mess.”

“Because the data of that AI project is lost?”

I asked Ming.

He looked at me with a melancholy look and nodded. “That has a bad impact on the Giant Group.”

“Who did that? Did anyone find out?”

I kept asking.

Ming stood at the door and looked at me gently before shaking his head. “I don’t know.”

Well, I have not seen Sean in a long time.

Recently, I thought I had forgotten him, but now he was missing and my heart was in chaos.

I can’t calm down for a minute.

Although I knew Ming would be disappointed, I said, “I am sorry, but I am a little tired today and I would like to go to bed early.”

I didn’t want to think about Sean, but I was worried about Sean. If I faced Ming now, it was not fair to him.

I needed to be quiet.

Ming always knew me so well. He looked at me with cold eyes, as he toughed my cheek with his finger and smiled bitterly. “Are you worried about him?”

“I...”

“I know you are worried about him. You want to go out and look for him at night and think you might find him. Am I right?”

Ming said all my thoughts.

I was like an exposed thief then. I lowered my head and couldn’t say a word.

I can not even see Ming’s eyes.

I was afraid he was disappointed, or I was afraid to see his angry eyes.

But, for a moment, I felt he reach out and take me into his arms. He said, “I know you can not put him down completely now, but I will wait for you.”

“It was snowing outside. You have to remember to put on more clothes if you go out. Don’t freeze yourself. If you can not find your way back, just call me and I will pick you up.”

His words made my heart feel as if it had been hit hard.

How humble he was to say such a word.

For a moment, I felt so guilty that I could not help but hug Ming back. “I am sorry. I won’t go out to find him.”

I was not qualified to find him, was I?

Lewis group, Jessop family. They had so many people. Their network was spread across York. where is my turn, right? I was not qualified to find him, right?

“Really?”

“Really!”

My head pressed against Ming’s chest and kept nodding.

I told myself over and over in my heart: don’t go, don’t go, don’t go!

One of his hands fell on my hair from my back. “Okay, if you want to go, you must remember to wear warm clothes. If there is no car to take you back, you call me. Now I will go back first.”

After he said that, he put his hand down and turned back to his home.

I stood at the door and looked at the empty corridor.

Only myself.

In front of me, the window in the corridor was dark and there was not even a bit of light outside.
