Want You in My Life novel Chapter 22

Outside the window, it began to rain heavily. Hiram answered the phone casually. It was Cathy on the other side of the phone, who spoke in a serious tone rarely this time, but even so, her voice was still charming. "Last time you came to HC City, although William couldn't guess your true identity, he would soon find out after a little investigation. My brother meant to get the plan of the Water Park as soon as possible. At that time, you may have to come to the bidding. But at present, we have little advantage. If the Xu family and the Lou family join hands, we have little chance of winning. "

"I will handle it. "He flicked the ash on his finger and answered carelessly.

"That's good. I don't have to work so hard if you are there. By the way, the girl you asked me to investigate last time has resigned. According to my information, she can't be the one you found. "Hiram didn't know what Cathy was busy with, but he heard her voice suddenly became much clearer. After a pause, she continued, "and Hiram, that person is dead. "

"I know. "When Hiram mentioned that person, his heart skipped a beat. "But I always feel that she is still alive, right beside me. "

They kept silent for a while at the same time. What happened that year was a great blow to him. For so many years, no one dared to mention the matter of Emma in front of him, as if she was a rotten scar in his heart. If someone touched it slightly, blood would flow out. Hiram also realized something and said "Cathy, go to bed early if there is nothing else! "

"Well, it's still early. And Hiram, how's everything recently? "Cathy didn't mention it any more. Instead, she turned to ask about his wedding life. The Mo family had asked to keep their marriage as a secret, so she hadn't been able to attend the ceremony at that time.

Moreover, he didn't plan to get married at all. If it weren't for Ethan's coercion, he would have been single for the rest of his life.

"Just as usual. "Hiram's face darkened when he thought of Alline who was threatening him. He calmed himself down and said "Well, I'm about to hang up. Please call me if anything happens. "

After hanging up, he sat on the chair and relaxed himself. After a long time, he stood up and went into the bathroom. After taking a shower, he lay on the bed and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. He sat up and kept checking the time. However, he found that Alline still hadn't come back.

He scratched his hair irritably, got up and went downstairs. He asked Zelda, "hasn't Alline come back yet? "

"No, it's raining heavily. Young Mistress is busy with her business. She hasn't come back yet! "Zelda was also a little anxious. She looked at the rain and said with a sad face.

"Zelda, go to sleep first. I'll wait for her! "Said Hiram lightly.

After thinking for a long time, he finally took out his mobile phone and dialed the number that he had never called. It was the first time that he called Alline, but she didn't answer his phone. Hiram called her again and again, and finally she answered the phone.

Her voice was not clear as usual, but sound cold and slightly drunk, which was like a little cat. He didn't hear what she said, except the word-danger. Then he heard her mobile phone fell to the ground with a loud sound.

Then, it was disconnected.

He called again, but the phone still couldn't be connected. His eyebrows twitched, as if he wanted to strangle her. What on earth was this woman doing? Although he wanted to strangle her, he quickly called Jenny. "Check with the staffs in the company, and see what was Alline doing today? Why can't she answer my phone calls? "
