Chapter 879 Please Come Back Home, Sharon (Part One)


    "Exactly. So we don''t need to worry about anything, Uncle Derek. Everything is under our control," Mike


    replied.


    Derek gave a satisfied smile.


    Mond seemed to have caught up with what they said. Only Soren and Greg were not following, but they


    didn''t show it on their faces.


    To break the tense atmosphere, Mike took a deep breath and began, "Alright. Now we all understood


    the whole situation. Let''s divide our work."


    Looking towards Derek, he said, "Lawrence had arranged his work before leaving, so everything will go


    well with the JC Group. But we can''t let down our guard. Uncle Derek, please keep an eye on the JC


    Group and watch out for any suspicious signs, okay?"


    "Okay," Derek replied with verve, feeling like they had already won the fight. ''Looks like all my worries


    are unnecessary. But how long have Lawrence and Aria been dating? Why did he keep me in the


    dark?'' he pondered, somewhat unimpressed.


    Afterward, he shifted his gaze to Mond, whom he instructed. "Please send your men to protect Aria


    secretly, Uncle Mond. It''s what Lawrence wants. She was set up. It must be hard on her, serving time in


    prison on trumped-up charges. On top of that, she''s also been having it rough with her mum who''s in


    the hospital, fighting for her life after she was poisoned. Perhaps the girl might have an emotional


    breakdown or worse still; someone might try to kill her. So..." he said politely.


    "How about I get her out?" Mond suggested. "It''s not big deal."


    "No. I don''t think it''s a good idea. It will alert Sally and she might change her n. That way, we can''t


    foresee her next step," Mike replied, shaking his head.


    Mond didn''t respond.


    "Please just do what I said. Keep Aria safe and don''t let anyone hurt her. When Lawrence is back, he


    will get her out," Mike reasoned. There was no need to overreact in trying to save Aria, as Lawrence


    was the real target of her users. And in any case, Lawrence could find a way out for her. In the


    meantime, all they needed to do for Aria was to ensure that no one harmed her.


    "Okay, I see," Mond agreed atst. ''If that''s all Lawrence wants, I''ll have to trust his judgment and abide


    by his instructions, '' he thought.


    Next, Mike turned to Greg. "I won''t repeat your task again. If you want to protect your stepmother, you


    need to bring her home," he said with furrowed brows.


    "I will," Greg nodded with a decisive look on his face.


    After Greg, Mike now addressed his father. "You got a task too," he said.


    "What is it?" Soren Yu asked eagerly.


    "Send your men to follow Reba secretly and find evidence to prove that Aria is innocent. Since


    Reba set Aria up, she must have aplices. We need to find them out. It could be, she just


    kicked up a storm for no other reason than her love for drama," Mike said. After all, she was an


    excellent actress with a knack for controversy and publicity stunts. Mike even suspected Reba


    might have had faked her illness.


    "No problem," Soren Yu agreed confidently.


    "Well, that''s all. Please y your part ording to n. Should there arise situations that could get you


    panicked, you''ll need to do your best and wriggle yourself out without causing rm. All the way, we


    will ensure there''s always someone to round," Mike concluded. "That''s it for now, but once Lawrence is


    back, we''ll have further ns," he added.


    ...


    When Greg stepped out of the JC Group, he drove straight to the Xiao family''s residence.


    As he walked in, he called out his father, assuming that his old man was in the living room as usual.


    But there was no response. Once he stepped into the living room, he nced around but there was no


    one. So he went straight upstairs.


    When he pushed Fred''s bedroom door open, he found his father sitting on the balcony smoking.


    Silently, he made his way to his father.


    "Dad!" called Greg softly standing behind Fred.


    The father leaned sideways slightly. "You are back, Greg," he greeted, looking at his son askance.


    "Ummm," Greg hesitated as he took several steps forward and stopped in front of his father. With a


    little frown, he squatted down, took the remaining cigar from his father''s hand and stubbed it out in the


    ashtray. "Dad, Sharon is in deep trouble. We need to save her," he began with a concerned look.


    "What happened to her?" asked Fred in panic, his eyes meeting his son''s gaze. From the look in his


    eyes, Greg could tell the old man was rattled.


    "Don''t get panicked, Dad. Hear me out," Greg said, trying to appease Fred. "Here is the thing. A few


    days ago, Aunt moved out from here, iming that one of her friends returned from abroad. But today, I


    met Mike, and he gave me spine-chilling details about the woman that Aunt ims to be friends with.


    The woman has a heinous criminal record. She also has connections in high ces which makes her


    get away with anything, including murder. But you know, with crime, what goes aroundes around.


    Who knows when she''ll finally get her dues? For that reason, Mike has strongly advised that we bring


    Aunt home and all together stop her from seeing that woman again."


    The reality shook Fred to the core. Since Sharon left home, he had been missing her. But it didn''t ur


    to him that his wife was now living with a notorious coldhearted criminal. Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
