Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 2008

While he was in a fit of frustration, he was suddenly interrupted. Elijah's mood was even worse. He glanced at the screen and didn't pay attention to it. When the vibration of his phone stopped, he continued to say,

"Find a few reliable ones and keep them a secret! Don't make any more trouble at this time!"

If his mother's physical condition were to cause a change between his family and his company, it would only add fuel to the fire. Not to mention the turmoil, it would only worsen his mother's condition. This was what Elijah was most worried about!

At present, it seemed that this was the only way!

"And..."

Just as he was about to say something, his phone suddenly rang again. It was still the same number, but it was interrupted once again. Elijah turned his head around, and without realizing it, he heaved a sigh of relief. With a wave of his hand, he threw his phone directly to Hudson.

Hudson was slightly stunned. He then pressed the answer button and took the lead to say,

"Kim Mi-chi? The president is in a meeting and it's not convenient to answer the phone. If you have anything to say, you can tell me. I will pass the message to him after the meeting!"

"Kim Mi-chi, if it's a dinner party or something like that, I can answer for you on behalf of the president. The company has been working hard for the past two months, and the president's schedule is full. At least, he won't be free this month!"

...

Elijah knocked on his forehead and closed his eyes. He only quieted down after hearing Hudson push her away for a while.

After putting the phone back, Hudson couldn't help but shake his head.

"There's nothing much. She said that she might have to go back to South Korea immediately and wants to have a meal with you before she leaves! Also, she wants to remind you that she is going to hold a concert in South Korea in the middle of July, during the summer vacation. She is afraid that you will forget!"

In fact, he didn't want to pass on the message to him, especially such a small thing. However, in front of the boss, he couldn't show too much emotion. "Elijah, if you don't want to deal with her, why don't you just say it to her?"

"It would be great if all women think the same way as you do!" If he went to say it, he would probably not be able to hang up the phone now. It was not that he had never said that. That woman was forgetful!

Left with no other choice, Elijah sighed once again.

"Maybe it's because she looks too much like Gracie! So many words come out of my mouth unconsciously! Hudson, sometimes I really don't know who I'm facing..."

Facing her face, he refused, but he couldn't refuse it as directly and decisively as if he were dealing with someone else.

He hated it so much, but at that moment, he seemed to be unable to control himself!

He unconsciously clenched his fist and thought to himself, "Give me some more time!"

Perhaps after he got used to it, he would be able to face it all!

"Elijah, I think there's something I should tell you..."

Hudson's gaze met his and caught the obvious dejection and fatigue on Elijah's face. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Forget it, it's not an important matter. Let's talk about it later!"

There were too many things he had to worry about recently!

He straightened his body and furrowed his brows. "You either say it or don't mention it. You've made up your mind that I shouldn't sleep tonight?"

"No!"

Hudson shook his head subconsciously. He could not help but roll his eyes. "I'm afraid that I won't be able to sleep tonight!"

After a short pause, under the pressure of Elijah's gaze, he could only spit out,

"Last time when I went to send a burger to Kim Mi-chi, she was frightened by the cat's scratch. I found traces of withered grass in her rolled-up cuffs and shoe buttons. Out of curiosity, I took a piece of withered grass... There were branches and leaves everywhere in the countryside. I didn't think much about it at first, but a friend who reared a cat just happened to see it. He said that the withered grass was catnip, which was also known as 'the drugs of cats'. Most cats would become very excited when they smell it. Therefore, people who reared cats often liked to buy some toys filled with catnip to play with the cat!"

On that day, when he heard him mention it, he felt strange. Why would a cat pounce on a person for no reason?

Sure enough, there was something fishy about it.

With no expression on his face, Elijah's lazy gaze was evidently focused on something. "So, what are you trying to say?"

He must have paid attention to it and checked it out on purpose!

He knew that he had never liked Kim Mi-chi, but he also knew that Hudson was not the kind of person who would frame others. Since he had said it, it must be reasonable.

No wonder he was so hesitant just now. Was he afraid that he would think too much?

At this moment, it was like a thorn stuck in his heart. If it was really her...

He suddenly felt a little scared. There was some hope, but at the same time, he was very afraid that the woman was Kim Mi-chi! Subconsciously, maybe he still felt a little guilty. Anyway, he had taken her virginity, so he always felt a little strange.

Speaking of this, Hudson was also silent. In his heart, he really didn't want this kind of situation to happen. After all, he had been by Elijah's side for a long time. He knew what the man was thinking. He also understood his situation. He knew that the women he had interacted with in his life could really leave their names. Except for the dead Gracie, the current Carolien was the woman who had an affair with him for a night. It was hard to say for now, but if she was the person from that year, then it was easy to imagine.

Therefore, in the end, he didn't say anything more. After all, most of this was against his private affairs, and he stopped at the last moment. Finally, Elijah said,

"Go and check the background of this woman! Be more obscure!"

...

After sending Hudson off, Elijah sat there in a daze for a while. No one knew what he was thinking.

In the evening, Elijah did not return home again, nor did he go to social activities. Instead, he went to Peakview villa. Carolien did not see him for a few days, but suddenly received a call from him. Carolien was also very happy. When he came over, she went to the supermarket on purpose and cooked a table of dishes personally for him.

When he came back to his senses, he found himself in an empty hall, where there were crackling sounds. Coupled with the faint aroma of food, he stopped unconsciously. The coldness around him seemed to have been driven away by something.

After taking off his coat, he walked to the dining room. As expected, as soon as he stretched out his head, he saw the busy figure in the kitchen. There were already two dishes on the table. One was chicken wings, and the other was roasted potatoes. He glanced at it and reached out to take a bite. Carolien came out with a plate of fried mushrooms. She put down the plate and glanced at him.

"Why did you attack the food directly?"

He was just like a child! How hungry was he?

While speaking, he took out a piece of tissue and put it beside him. Carolien also turned around and took a plate for him. "I'll cook some more vegetables, then you can eat!"

Biting on the soft chicken, Elijah's gaze swept across the tissue and plate as he chased after her. A few words floated in his mind. Pumpkin pie?

He was just curious about it, so he reached out and took one!

But for a moment, there was some indescribable sweetness in his heart.

After a while, Carolien brought out some vegetables and scrambled eggs, followed by two bowls of rice and a fish. She said, "I specially ordered the fish from the restaurant, it's a special steamed fish!"
