CHAPTER 137: CHAPTER 119 THAT CHILD ISN’T ACTUALLY LUCAS WARREN’S, RIGHT?

I originally wanted to use this contract to showcase my skills in the company, but I am a bit disappointed.

I need to go back to the company now to deal with this matter, I really don’t have time to chat with Second Master Warren, excuse me."

Faye left, and Hunter Warren did not stay long either; he followed her down the mountain.

Watching her get in the car, Hunter Warren handed his car keys to the attendant who brought him offerings and then got into her car.

Faye turned her head towards him, a bit agitated, saying, "What are you doing? Get out."

"Coincidentally, I also need to deal with some things at the Townsend Company. Give me a lift, I’m on your way."

"Don’t you think you’re being quite a jerk?"

"I haven’t taken advantage of you, how can this be considered being a jerk?"

Faye pulled the car keys out directly, "Hunter Warren, this is really pointless.

I’m feeling very bad right now. Could you not bother me and let me have some peace?"

"So, tell me why you’re upset and stop lying to me."

Faye gritted her teeth. At times he couldn’t be smart when needed, yet at times he could see through things so annoyingly well.

"You used to act like I was the only one you couldn’t be involved with when I needed you.

Now that I don’t need you, you come to act as the good guy.

It’s a pity, I’m not buying it anymore.

If I tell you what’s going on, what can you change? Can you make my world bright with sunshine?

You have already drawn the curtains on my world, even if there is sunshine, I can’t see it anymore."

Hunter Warren furrowed his brows, "Then I will rip that curtain open again.

I can let you live under the sunlight from now on, but the premise is that you give me this chance.

Therefore, I beg you, please answer my calls when I phone you next time.

When you’re upset and someone bullies you, don’t hide it from me.

I, Hunter Warren, am not so weak that I can’t even protect my own wife."

"Wife... ha," Faye sneered and got out of the car, turning her head to look towards the mountains across from the cemetery, tears welling in her eyes.

Her emotions were nearing the breaking point, but she couldn’t cry, she had to hold on.

Hunter Warren also got out of the car at this time, walked up to her, and when he saw the mist filling her eyes, his heart ached, "What’s wrong with you?"

Faye bit her lip and growled lowly in anger, "Can’t you... just not ask? Can’t you let me be quiet for once? Why are you meddling in my affairs? Aren’t I already troubled enough?"

Seeing her like this, Hunter Warren pulled her into his arms, "Alright, alright, if you don’t want to say, I won’t force you.

But you really seem off right now. If you want to leave here, you must let me drive you back, or else I won’t be at ease."

Faye hesitated for a moment and then pushed him away, handing him the car keys.

Hunter Warren smiled as he took the car keys, and Faye walked around him to get into the front passenger seat.

He got in the car and started the engine to leave the cemetery.

Along the way, Faye kept her eyes closed, leaning her head against the window.

He didn’t play any music, and the car was so quiet that it made people uneasy.

But at this moment, Faye did not care about how awkward it was to be alone with Hunter Warren.

All she knew was that she felt a deep pain in her heart, she missed Miya, worried about Miya, thinking only of Miya’s smiling face.

She couldn’t wait any longer, and had to go back to see Miya immediately.

Upon arriving at the doorstep, Faye got out of the car, followed by Hunter Warren: "Faye."

Faye did not turn around, but she did stop in her tracks.

"Are you really alright?"

"I’m fine." Faye said and then walked towards the house.

Hunter Warren hurriedly asked, "That child is not Lucas Warren’s child, is it?"

Faye shuddered inside, if she were facing him right now, her expression would have betrayed her.

She hadn’t expected him to ask such a question today, she didn’t answer, just opened the door and went in, closing it heavily behind her.

Hunter Warren stood there, if the child was really Lucas’, Faye had no reason to remain silent.

After Faye returned home, Uncle Rivers greeted her immediately: "Miss, did everything go smoothly?"

She nodded: "Uncle Rivers, I will need to return to Zurich in the next few days. Please help me pack up my things."

"Miss, are you going back for work? How many days will you stay?"

"Yes, I’m going back for work. As for the number of days... I can’t be sure.

During the few days I’m away, please take care of Clara and Darnley."

"Don’t worry, Miss, I’ll do my best."

Faye nodded: "Also, there are many guestrooms in the house, you can have Declan come over to keep you company during these days."

"It’s okay, Declan is busy too, even if he comes, he won’t have time to keep me company.

Better not distract him, let him work well.

Miss, please wait a moment while I pack the things for you."

Faye walked to the sofa and sat down, her eyes moving back and forth but seeming spiritless.

What did Hunter Warren mean by what he just said? Did she let something slip?

They say there are no walls without cracks, but she had always been assured of this matter.

Because those who know the truth are only Oliver Turner, Clara, and Kay Forrest.

None of these three people could possibly betray her.

Faye raised her hand, lightly biting her thumb’s edge, did Hunter Warren really discover something? There’s no reason for it.

After struggling for a while, she suddenly stood up and went upstairs, "Uncle Rivers, please pack up Darnley’s clothes as well."

Uncle Rivers was a bit surprised, "Miss, are you taking Darnley with you?"

"I just remembered, a few days ago Forrest said he missed Darnley, if I were to go back alone, Forrest would definitely be unhappy, I’ll take Darnley back to reunite with him for a few days.

As for the kindergarten, please get leave for Darnley as well, I can’t determine how many days we’ll be gone.

I will call you when it’s settled."

"Alright, Miss."

Faye exited the room, went to the lounge, and sat quietly there, with her mind in a fog.

Darnley couldn’t stay in Eldoria for now, it didn’t matter if Hunter Warren truly knew something or not, she couldn’t take the risk.

Hunter Warren is incredibly smart, and she couldn’t afford to gamble.

Uncle Rivers packed up the luggage and went to the kindergarten to pick up Darnley.

Faye drove to the company to arrange the matters of the upcoming days.

On the way, she called Kay Forrest, but he never answered.

Frustrated, Faye threw the phone aside, thinking if he was flirting with someone, she would definitely give him a lesson.

When she arrived at the company, she called Brielle Golden and Declan Rivers to the office.

"I need to make a trip back to Switzerland in the next few days; I can’t be certain of the return date.

During this time, all work should be communicated to me via conference calls.

I will take out half an hour each day for a teleconference with you two.

While I’m away, both of you must be on high alert."

"Yes, Director Townsend." Brielle Golden nodded.

After responding, Declan Rivers asked worriedly, "Director Townsend, is there an urgent matter?"

Faye nodded, she raised her hand and patted his arm, "Once I’m back, I’ll arrange for you guys to have a break."

"Director Townsend, this is our job, we will do our best."

Faye nodded and smiled at Brielle Golden, "Thank you for your hard work, Secretary Brielle, please book tonight’s flight tickets for my child and me, if there is no direct flight, book a connecting one."

"Understood, Director Townsend." Brielle Golden turned to leave.

Faye said to Declan Rivers, "While I’m away, visit your dad if you have time, he tends to get bored in the big house."

"Alright, Faye, I noticed that you looked in a hurry when you came in, did something happen? Is there anything I can help with?"

Faye smiled, "It’s nothing, nowadays, even great issues can be resolved, you focus on work, and find a girlfriend quickly, you don’t have to worry about anything else."

Declan Rivers laughed bashfully, "Finding a girlfriend isn’t something to rush, it’s about fate."

"While you wait for fate here, your dad is eager to hold a grandson."

"Oh, he talked to you about this?"

"Of course, he mentioned a few times that I’m only two years older than you, and my child can already buy soy sauce, yet you don’t even have a girlfriend."

"My dad is probably worried I’ll end up single, isn’t there an imbalance in the male-to-female ratio these days?"

"Even with the imbalance, you’ll still be in high demand, don’t worry." Faye stood up, "Alright, I won’t say more, I need to get back and pack for the trip."

"Safe travels, Faye."

Faye smiled and nodded at Declan Rivers before leaving the office.

After returning home, she took Darnley and drove towards the airport, on the way, Brielle Golden texted her. She went to the airport to exchange the tickets, there was no direct flight, she could only transfer in Beijing.

She and Darnley had just arrived at the airport to wait for boarding when Hunter Warren’s call came in.

Faye didn’t intend to answer, but the phone kept ringing, so she simply put it on silent mode.

Darnley looked at her puzzled, "Faye, why don’t you answer the phone?"

"It’s nothing, just some unimportant people calling, it’s okay not to answer."

As soon as she finished speaking, a beeping sound came from Darnley’s bag, he pulled out a phone and looked at it for a long time before handing it over to Faye, "Faye, your phone."

Faye was surprised, "Where did you get this phone from?"

When in Switzerland, she had given phones to him and Miya, but they hadn’t used them after returning to Eldoria. This phone wasn’t one she had bought, she was sure of it.

"Second Master Warren gave it to me this afternoon."

"You saw him this afternoon? What did he say to you?" Faye didn’t take the phone, but instead nervously grasped Darnley’s hand.

Darnley looked at her with furrowed brows, "Faye, you’re hurting me."

Faye’s heart quivered, she quickly released him, "Sorry, sweetheart, Mom didn’t control my strength."

The phone on the other side had automatically hung up, Darnley said, "This afternoon, when Grandpa Rivers and I were returning home, we met him at the door.
