The Unexpected Marriage

Chapter 106 Same Time

He seldom talked to Austin in this way.

"Austin." After a moment of hesitation, he softened his tone and said, "sometimes, life is not so easy as it takes. To be able to live a peaceful life with Joan in the rest of our lives, we must deal with such a mess in front of us."

His tone was meaningful. People who understood him could understand what he meant.

He understood what he meant. He still remembered the result of the impulsion in the army. He knew that after these years with Darren, he had grown up gradually. And he also knew that if he had treated it in a different way, the ending would be very different.

Like the other girl who feared nothing and could help her friends at any time, Linda was the second him.

With his arms on the doorknob, he slowed down in an instant when he thought that he had to face the woman named Lola Qi later. But soon he resumed his countenance.

Just like everything was fine.

It was just like when they were in the past, walking and sharing good things every day.

His calm was broken by the call. "Darren Lu, I suppose you know Joan Gu very well, don't you?"

"Who are you?"

Darren put him on speaker. His vulgar voice came from the other end of the line. "I don't want to talk about who I am. You should know why we kidnapped her. I don't ask for the amount of money. You assume this woman is important to you. You give me a number."

This wasn't an ordinary kidnap. The kidnapper did it on purpose. He wanted Darren to know that maybe they were his old friends or business opponents.

It was by no means a simple kidnap.

His voice was muffled by a piece of cloth over the phone, which made his voice even hoarse.

"Before I go there, if you dare to hurt her, no matter who you are or who is behind you, I will definitely make you get out of S City and never come back."

It had been a long time since the last time they heard Darren getting angry. His stern voice made Jean's face look ghastly pale.

He still cared about this woman in the end.

"I'd like to see who he will choose to give up when his new love and old love ask for help at the same time."

Jean winked at the man, and the two of them told him the wrong address as they had agreed.

"Joan, do you think he will agree to everything I want to do to save you?" She asked deliberately because she knew that Darren wouldn't come.

She didn't want to know any romantic love story. Now she just wanted to see a joke.

Joan sat up straight and looked at her. "You know nothing about love. I have nothing to say to you."

"You know what I want besides money, status, handbags of famous brand and luxury clothes? What does Darren want the most? " She paused for a moment. On the first day she moved into the Lu family, she had said, "what I want is not a powerful ATM that can give me a safe and comfortable life, but a warm and considerate husband who knows my feelings."

The life she wanted was not so ups and downs like this. An ordinary life was as rare as a luxury. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

"Husband? Ordinary?! Miss Gu, I'm so glad to hear that! You are in such a low spirits now. There must be a reason. What did you know? What did you see? Why did you come here from so far away? And why are you caught by me? " Jean smiled scornfully and said, "at this moment, where is your ordinary and great husband?"

Although she had been away for more than a day, she still believed that Darren had never given up looking for her. But her deliberate dodge made him unable to find the object for a while.

"He knows that I'm imprisoned by you, and in the hands of a vicious woman like you, he will surely come to save me!"

If I lost the confidence, my long-standing devotion to him would be in vain. Moreover, she had already known that he could help her when they were strangers back then, not to mention the pregnant lover.

How could he sit there and do nothing?

She still refused to be convinced. "Miss Gu and Mr. Lu are a good couple. You can rest assured that I'm not that greedy. I will let you and Mr. Lu leave safely once I get what I want."

What she wanted was not simple. Was there an ambush here?

Joan stretched out her neck and looked around the buildings.

As a professional designer, the design structure here was the simplest and flattest, and there was no place to hide. Seeing this, she was gradually relieved.

Darren, I'm really sorry. I was only jealous of your gentleness to her. I didn't expect my recklessness to bring you so much trouble. As a wife, it is reasonable for you to be jealous. But why do you deliberately make me angry?

That day at KTV, when she had been intimate with him for a long time, she had felt that he had treated her in a completely different manner. But now, after she thought about it carefully, she believed that he had made the decision because of the rage.

"Lady Qi, it's time to take action."

A silver Bentley stopped at the most noisy crossroad.

"Now that Joan is in danger, why does Lola Qi also join in?" Darren Lu frowned. Life was not a play. How could there be so many coincidences?

These two things must have been done by one person. He probably had known who might do this in his heart, but he didn't know exactly.

"No, not now. Let's go back to the hotel we were going to go and ask them first."

As Darren analyzed calmly, Austin asked while driving, "aren't you worried that they might hurt them in a desperate way when you don't go?"

Two People? They were two people including Joan and the baby in her belly.

"It's possible that Lola is in the same group with them. If it's true, we may use another way to rescue her."

In this way, we can find out who is behind all this!

When they arrived at the restaurant, Darren jumped out of the car and went to the western restaurant. A waiter greeted him at once when he walked to the restaurant. "Sir, do you have a reservation?"

"My last name is Lu. I booked a private room here yesterday."

He found a photo of Lola Qi from his cell phone. "I'm late. This is the woman whom I dated. Did she wait for me for a long time before I came?"

He then respectfully took the phone from Darren and handed it over to him after hesitating for a long time. "I'm sorry, sir. I've looked through this photo carefully. I've not seen her, and there is no lady asking for your room."

So, no one had come here tonight?

The waiter's affirmative reply made him more certain that this was a play she directed and acted by herself. He turned to Austin and said, "go to Lola. Since her conspiracy has been exposed, don't blame me for disregarding her feelings."

When he acquiesced in Lola's walking and stopping beside him and going in and out in the Lu family's villa, he had told her for countless times indirectly that his death's opponent was Scott. The Jian Company was ambitious and caused many difficulties in the Lu Company. And as for Jean, he didn't like that kind of woman who was cautious.

At that time, although there was a trace of timidity in Lola's eyes, she still promised that she did not know anyone. Back in China, Terence was her only friend.

"Lola, what do you want to do after you come back? And who told you that? Will the whole thing be clear today?" There was a recorder in his pocket, which he had specially put on today.

If it Jian Company did this, he would not only record their schemes against the Lu Company, but also record his many uses against Joan. In this way, the cold war and predicament between them would be alleviated.

She calculated the time and thought there should be some movement.

It was her husband who was walking back and forth, who was more unable to stay calm than Jean. Zed had called her and told her that nothing had happened.

"How could it be?" He thought it over, there might only be one possibility.

Perhaps Darren had noticed that, or perhaps he couldn't get on with the show anymore. When the clock on the wall rang, which should be dozens of ordinary noises every day, he was so annoyed today that he threw a thing at the clock.

And he suddenly stopped.

"Jean, listen to me. I don't care what kind of negotiation you have with Lola. Now you should make her disappear from that position without any trace at all."

Why! She walked some distance away from Joan and questioned, "you agreed to this plan too. He mistakenly believed that the kidnappers were people who knew everything about Joan. And the one who kidnapped Lola are the real kidnappers. Why don't we agree to it now?"

"Don't ask so many questions. There's no time left now. According to the time, he should have arrived at the place of Lola, but he didn't show up until now. What does it mean? Darren Lu is not such an idiot as you!" He passed over the broken pieces of the watch, and went downstairs.

Scott said in a serious tone. Having stayed by his side for so many years, Jean naturally knew what it meant.

If it was not the case, he would not be an alarmist.

"Why did Darren notice it?" She bit her lips hard.

They had plenty of time!
