107 Ch. 107 Hidden Agenda
‘Oh my gosh! Is that his wife?’
‘I think so.’
‘Did you hear that? He admits he couldn’t control himself!’
‘I bet he hit his head hard, or perhaps sothing wrong with my ear.’
‘No, your hearing is fine, so it must be with his brain.’
‘Reirei, isn’t your brother anti-woman the most? Since when can he flirt with won?’
‘Brother Diego, you forgot, Richard has been most liked by won since long ago. He enjoyed to charm and attracting any girls he liked. But he had changed since the incident two years ago.’ Raymond explained.
‘Oh, you an the thing with your cousin ??in England?’
‘Did sothing like that happen?’ asked Henrich curiously.
.....
Before anyone could answer, the gentlest voice ca out from their respective speaker. “Why don’t you sleep so more? It’s still four.”
‘Please, soone tell that I’m dreaming... Is that really Richard’s voice? It creeped out!!’ blurted Henrich in disbelief.
In all his life, Henrich had never witnessed how Richard seduced a woman, let alone talked gently like a gentleman. It was mainly because Richard preferred to travel and only got together once a year.
Even then, when he was with his family, Richard didn’t care about other girls and only focused on his family’s activities. Well, he still released his charm pheromone to attract girls, but once a girl openly and aggressively chased him, Richard directly left and disappeared the next day.
Richard’s unorthodox gentleness alone confused his cousins, but it was nothing when they heard a woman’s lodious voice. “How can I sleep if you’re not by my side?”
The chat box was filled with various incoming texts and bombarded comnts right after they heard Anxia’s response.
‘I have to invite Richard to bring his wife here!’
‘Now I’m imagining what kind of lady managed to steal my bro’s heart.’
“Hello? Richie, do you hear ?” Unlike the others, Diego spoke loudly through the headset mic. “Good morning, Mrs. Calvin, but did you know we can hear you very clearly?”
The others scowled at Diego’s sudden revelation over their headsets. Richard even stroked his forehead, feeling exhausted when he heard his cousin’s voice. Kendrich, who happened to be sitting next to Diego because Kendrich specifically ca to Diego’s house to borrow his computer, imdiately shifted closer to Diego’s chair.
Kendrich knew his sister didn’t like watching him play gas because he was pretty noisy when he comnted on what was happening in his online gas. Hence, he went to Diego’s house to avoid disturbing his sister, father, and mother. Luckily, Yuna, Diego’s wife, didn’t mind the loud noises because she sotis played gas with Diego.
When Kendrich was close enough to Diego, he was surprised when he saw Diego’s second computer screen displaying so data about a young girl.
“Oh, I had no idea. I’m sorry.” Anxia replied in a tone as if she was stricken with extre embarrassnt.
“Diego, what are you planning?”
“Nothing. We need to talk. Sorry guys, I will cut the connection by force.”
“What?”
Before they could ask why or protest, five avatars on the screen disappeared one at a ti, the first avatar to be gone was Raymond’s, and all of his chat histories were erased.
Anxia stared at the monitor suspiciously and was curious about what kind of guy this Diego was. Could it be he knew her hidden agenda? That’s impossible. Diego didn’t know her, so the man wouldn’t be able to know what plans she was making. But his last words about wanting to talk to Richard alone made her think otherwise.
Richard propped his chin on his palm as he looked at his wife suspiciously. It had been a long ti since Richard had looked at her like this making Anxia flutter unsteadily.
“Why are you looking at like that?”
“I wonder what you’re thinking.”
“Nothing in particular.”
“Are you sure?”
“I’m one hundred percent sure.”
For a few monts, neither of them spoke before Richard dropped his bomb. “Do you still hate Michelle Wong?”
Anxia did her best to hide her tension when she heard the question. She even faked her expression with a straight face, but Richard could see a gleam of shock in her eyes. It was a quick one because Anxia dispelled them in the next second.
“Xia Xia, can’t you forget the past? Michelle is my sister-in-law, which ans she is also your family.”
Anxia tried to get up from her husband’s lap, but Richard held her so she couldn’t escape his husband’s grip. She saw and read the chats on Richard’s laptop. She imdiately suspected that one of the brothers playing along with her husband was Raymond Calvin, the husband of Michelle Wong.
Through the sa chat box, Anxia learned that Richard was hiding his marriage from his siblings, and they all wanted to et her.
That’s why she was sweet and enticed Richard. She knew Richard’s brothers across the line could hear her because she had read the chat box.
Anxia deliberately stirred up Richard’s brothers, so they all asked Richard to take her to the states. It was one way to make her encounter her nesis and end her grudge once and for all.
At first, Richard did not understand his wife’s sudden sweetness, which was out of routine, and he was happy to see it. But after realizing that Anxia was being spoiled because of ulterior motives, Richard couldn’t help but beco disappointed.
On the other side of the world, Kendrich was astonished by Diego’s hideous expression next to him and couldn’t contain his curiosity anymore.
“What’s wrong? Why did you suddenly forcibly cut our network connection? Moreover, what are you investigating this girl for? You’re not afraid that Yuna will scold you?”
Diego was only investigating Richard’s wife for fun, as his cousin was too petty to enlighten his curiosity. He secretly ordered Tiffany II, now nad Miyu, to find the identity of the voice he heard.
It didn’t take long for Miyu to find the fundantal data about Qiao Anxia.
And from this, he knew that Richard’s wife was no ordinary lady. Now he understood why Richard had deliberately hidden his wife and not brought him together with them, especially with Raymond.
