Chapter 147 Where Are The Clients You''ve Picked Up


    Rain took the elevator straight to the 88th floor and entered Edward''s office without knocking first. The


    sound of his abrupt entry shocked Edward, who was reading a file intently. Edward frowned and asked.


    "Why are you in such a hurry? Where are the clients you''ve picked up? You''re supposed to be with


    them right now." Edward saw Rain was unapanied. He gave him a confused look.


    "I didn''t pick them up. Where is Luke? Ask him toe over. I need a favor." demanded Rain. He


    walked towards the refrigerator, took out a bottle of water and drank like a fish. He spilled some water


    which trickled down his neck. He looked coquettish and unruly.


    "Why didn''t you pick them up? What happened? Was their flight dyed?" asked Edward. He called


    Luke simultaneously. He wondered, "Rain is in such a hurry. Something must be wrong, or he would


    never charge at me like that."


    "The flight was on time. I met them, but not all of them." replied Rain. After drinking water, he finally


    calmed down.


    "What are you talking about?" asked Edward. ''What is Rain talking about? Did he pick them up or not?


    I can''t understand him at all.'' wondered Edward.


    "I met them. But Annie wasn''t there." replied Rain. He took a seat on the sofa and waited for Luke.


    "You mean Annie didn''te?" asked Edward. ''That''s the point! No wonder he is in such a rush. If I


    remember right, Annie is in love with Rain! Why did she give up this opportunity to see him?'' thought


    Edward.


    "No, she came here in advance. She said she would contact me. But instead, she disappeared."


    replied Rain. He fixed his gaze on Edward, and it seemed that Rain was looking for an answer from


    him.


    "Now, What are you nning to do?" asked Edward. He smiled nomittally and thought, ''Annie is a


    grown woman. She won''t disappear for no reason. If she didn''t contact anyone, there must be some


    reason. Perhaps something went wrong, or maybe Annie doesn''t want to see us right now. There is no


    need to panic.''

    "Tell Luke to find out if something has happened in the undergroundmunity. I''m afraid she has


    been kidnapped," said Rain. He knew very well that in order to protect Edward, Luke had forged many


    human rtions and had a lot of people backing him. So it was sensible to ask him about this.


    "Do you think anyone in S City knows Annie? If she was kidnapped upon her arrival, there must be a


    mole in the C Financial Group. That would exin how her identity and schedule were revealed." said


    Edward.


    He looked at Rain as if he were an idiot and thought, ''It''s a simple question. But he seems confused


    when ites to Annie. If he doesn''t fancy her, then why is he so worried?"


    "You''re right. But why didn''t she contact us?" asked Rain. He wasn''t able to think clearly anymore. All


    he could do was to count on Edward. It seemed that Edward could solve any problem with ease.


    "I''m not Mr. Know-it-all. Besides, I don''t know her well enough to understand how her mind works."


    replied Edward. He rolled his eyes and thought, ''Love can truly deprive you of your intelligence.''


    They heard a knock on the office door. It was Luke. He looked fierce in ck.


    "Mr. Mu, what can I do for you?"asked Luke. He turned a blind eye to Rain.


    "Luke, can''t you see me?"ined Rain. ''Am I that annoying? Why does he ignore me every time.''


    he thought.


    Luke rolled his eyes at Rain, and thought, ''I just don''t get it. Why is he dressed so effeminately? He


    looks like a sissy.''


    "Are you done with the small talk?" asked Edward. He was baffled by their rtionship. He thought,


    ''For some reason, Luke always gives Rain the cold shoulder. He keeps up a poker face all the time .''


    "He has pissed me off." murmured Rain. And he thought, ''He is icier than Duke. He only cares about


    his young boss.''


    Luke threw a cold nce at Rain and then turned to Edward.


    "Luke, tell your men to see if there''s anything unusual going on in the undergroundmunity,


    especially keep an eye on something about a kidnapped woman." demanded Edward. He thought, ''If


    she isn''t kidnapped, she must have her reasons for not showing up. In that case, there would be no


    need to look for her.''


    "Sure, Mr. Mu. I''ll do it right away." replied Luke. He gave a meaningful look to Edward and walked out


    of the office. The only thing he needed to do was to follow orders from Edward. He never bothered to


    ask the reasons.


    "Edward, will we be able to find her?" asked Rain. Edward and Luke had just made the n to solve


    the problem without asking for his opinion. He felt anxious.


    "Rain, is Annie still a teenager in your eyes? She is a grown woman. If she isn''t kidnapped, it means


    she doesn''t want to see you. Give her some space! She will show up when she wants. Calm down."


    exined Edward.


    He was aware that Rain was worried about her. But, he knew, problems aren''t solved by just


    worrying.
