Chapter 148


    Madam Swift patted Mr. Swift''s hand. "Joshua is demented, but he''s a young man, after all. When he


    sees a beautiful girl, he naturally likes her."


    Mr. Swift red at Madam Swift. "Don''t instill such thoughts into Joshua."

    Madam Swift snorted. "I didn''t instill it into him. Didn''t you see his behavior just now?"


    At this moment, Joshua ran out of the room and grabbed Madam Swift''s hand. "Grandma, go and take


    a look. That pretty woman just moved."


    Joshua was very excited.


    "Really?" Madam Swift didn''t believe it and hurried into the room. However, the girl was still asleep.


    Madam Swift pped her grandson. "Your grandpa said you were bewitched. He''s right. She''s still


    unconscious."


    Joshua looked at Arya''s fingers carefully. ''I clearly saw her move just now. Was I dazzled?''


    He shook his head affirmatively. "No, she indeed moved her fingers just now."


    Madam Swift didn''t bother to argue with him. She pulled him out and said, "Let''s go eat now."


    "Grandma, she really moved," Joshua said with certainty to persuade her.


    Madam Swift was afraid that he would not stop, so she nodded perfunctorily. "Yes, she moved, okay?"


    Only then was Joshua satisfied.


    "Grandma, when will she wake up?" Joshua blinked.


    Madam Swift said impatiently, "How would I know? I''m not a doctor."


    Joshua pouted. "Then let''s call another doctor."


    "Didn''t we call the doctorst time? He said she was in aa because of theck of oxygen for too


    long."


    "But why doesn''t she wake up? That doctor is not good enough. Let''s find another one…"


    Madam Swift scolded, "Eat first. Don''t talk nonsense!"


    The doctor was famous for his good medical skills in the vige. If the doctor heard Joshua''s words, he


    would think they did not trust his medical skills.


    Joshua was unhappy. "Grandma, will she wake up?"


    "Yes, she will." Madam Swiftforted her grandson.

    "I want to live at my house." When Xavier returned to the vi, Ryan said this to him, because he was


    not used to living in the vi.


    "Why? Isn''t it good here?" Xavier asked.


    Ryan shook his head. "I''m afraid Mom doesn''t know I''m here. She won''t be able to find me when she


    Ryan lowered his head, pinched his fingers, and added in a low voice, "There''s no smell of Mom here."


    He liked the house he used to live in. Although it was small, there were traces of him living with Mom.


    This vi was less warm than his house.


    Afraid that Xavier would refuse, Ryan ran over, hugged Xavier''s legs, and blinked his big, adorable


    eyes. "Is it okay? Let''s all go back with Nanny Joy."


    Xavier squatted down and looked straight at him. Ryan leaned over his ear. "Mommy''s not there. We


    can sleep in her bed. There''s her scent on it…"


    Xavier''s expression changed. ''This child…''


    But this really attracted Xavier.


    But he couldn''t do that.


    He and Arya had lived in this vi for a long time, just like a couple then…


    Thinking of what had happened before, Xavier felt heartbroken.


    He missed her so much…


    Xavier reached out and rubbed Ryan''s hair. "There''s also a bed where your mommy slept."


    Ryan widened his eyes and asked in disbelief, "She also hugged you when sleeping?"


    Xavier was stunned for a while.


    He then pinched Ryan''s face. "No."


    Ryan was even more confused.


    "Then why did she share a bed with you?"


    Xavier picked Ryan up and sat on the sofa in the living room. After a moment of silence, he said,


    "Because she has short arms and can''t hug me. I hug her."


    Ryan was more confused. He thought about it seriously, stretched out his arms and looked at them.


    "Mommy''s arms are not short. She can hold me tightly…"


    Ryan didn''t understand why Xavier said his mom had short arms.


    When Nanny Joy asked them to eat, Ryan came down from Xavier''s arms and ran towards Nanny Joy.


    He took her arm and looked at it. He muttered, "Mommy''s arms are much longer than yours. They''re


    not short."


    Nanny Joy was confused. "What are you talking about? Wash your hands and eat."


    Ryan pouted and looked at Xavier. "You lied to me."


    Xavier came over, helped him wash his hands and said, "I didn''t lie to you. If you don''t believe me, take


    a look when shees back."


    Ryan nodded.


    Hepletely forgot to persuade Xavier to go back with him.


    Early the next morning, Xavier entered hispany, holding Ryan in his hand. A man was standing at


    the front desk arguing with the receptionist.


    Seeing Xaviering over, the receptionist said quickly, "Our boss is here…"


    Ondo turned around and saw Xaviere in. He quickly walked towards Xavier. Arya disappeared.


    He had no idea what was going on with her, and something happened to thepany''s project in the


    Clearwater Bay.


    He urgently needed to know what was going on with Arya.


    Seeing that it was Ondo, Xavier did not change his expression and said calmly, "Come with me."


    Ryan greeted warmly, " Ondo."


    Arya had taken Ryan to herpany before, so Ryan was very familiar with Ondo.


    Ondo was about to reach out and touch Ryan''s head, but Xavier stopped him, "Don''t touch him."


    He didn''t like others touching Ryan''s head.


    Ondo awkwardly withdrew his hand and touched his nose. "I''m used to it."


    "Then change it!"


    After saying that, Xavier led Ryan to the elevator.


    Ondo stood there and curled his lips at Xavier. ''This man is the so-called overbearing bigwig? Is a


    person like him so arrogant?''


    Seeing that the elevator door was about to close, Ondo quickly walked over and got into the elevator.


    Xavier nced at him. "You didn''t go to Jacob?"


    "Yes, did anything happen to Miss Harrison?" When Ondo asked this question, he was very careful.


    Even so, Xavier''s expression changed.


    He said in a cold tone, "She''s fine!"


    He didn''t like to hear this question because he didn''t know how to answer it.


    He didn''t want to say that Arya had an ident and that he didn''t know whether she was alive or not.


    At this moment, the elevator stopped. Xavier bent over to pick up Ryan and said as he walked, "What


    happened?"


    Ondo was trusted by Arya, so Xavier was willing to trust him. Arya was missing, and he would take


    care of everything for her.


    "There is something wrong with the case in the Clearwater Bay. Not long after the project started, a


    problem urred. I went to the construction site to check it out. That''s true…"


    He found the mastermind behind this ident…
