A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 127

After hearing the name Bella Hawkins, Andrei Hawkins' mental state is not good. Now as Sunny waves at him, he just stares at her.

"Oh, what a pity."

Sunny walks away with Kevin. She looks back a few times, just until she sees Andrei Hawkins turning his back. She feels relieved and doesn't look back anymore.

"What a pity. I went to his room just now and found out that what he said was basically true."

Kevin puts his arm around Sunny. "Do you know how he got to be the head of the Hawkins family?"

"I don't know. Tell me."

"It's all about Kasper. Kasper was the loyal housekeeper of the previous generation, so he did his best to remove all the obstacles that might have affected Andrei Hawkins getting to the top and keep him there."

"So that's why Bella Hawkins's mother died."

"Ah..."

Sunny sighs. How come that talking about the events of that year is always a little bit sad.

"Ellen, there is something, but I don't know if I should tell you."

Kevin is hesitating. Mutters and mumbles to tell her about it or not.

Sunny says with a smile. "No need to be like this between us. If you have something to say, just say it. I'll be fine. I can handle everything."

"Forget it. It's OK. Let's go."

Kevin thinks about it for a moment and decides to not tell her for now. First he needs to look into it to have a better picture.

"You just say it, keeping stuff from me is what annoys me the most."

"Is just that, I have to go to the company to take care of something later. I can't take you home. You have to go back by yourself."

Sunny looks at him suspiciously. "Is this the matter you wanted to talk about?"

"Of course, what did you think I was going to tell you?"

"That's why you stayed there so long?"

"Yes, I got a phone call saying that the company had something urgent that l have to deal with."

Sunny takes a look at him and then waves her hand, "Go ahead, but it's not easy to take a taxi here. You have to give me a ride first."

After this moment of making himself look like a fool passed, Kevin lets out a sigh of relief.

"By the way, I can show you the company. You used to be my secretary."

Sunny remembers the time when she was instructed to be a secretary, and she is very angry. "You were always bossing me that time!”

"Yes, yes, it's my fault. Then you can go with me later. I am at your service."

As soon as Sunny hears this, she thinks, "Is that true?"

"You have my word."

Quinn takes a vow seriously, which makes Sunny believe his words.

"Well, let's go."

On their way back, they run into Robin Hawkins who is going back. He is looking at Sunny, as Kevin has his hand around her waist, and his eyes go dark.

"Mr. Hawkins, we won't disturb you any further. We are leaving."

Robin Hawkins looks at Sunny with a smile, "Okay. Do you want me to arrange a ride for you? "

Kevin takes the hand away from Sunny's waist. "We drove here by ourselves. It's not a problem."

Robin Hawkins nods. "I have something else to do. Take care."

After saying this, he leaves.

Sunny and Kevin look at his back for a moment. "I think he's weird."

"After all, you'd better stay away from him."

Kevin warns Sunny in a serious tone.

"I know, how can l be involved with this kind of person?"

The two look at each other after saying this, and then leave.

What they don't know is that Robin Hawkins, comes out of a shadow after they left and stares at Sunny's back for a long time.

"Come on, ma'am. Let's go to the company with me."

After getting in the car, Sunny finally remembers a long-standing question, "Is that Snail Shell company still there?"

It takes a while for Kevin to understand what Snail Shell she was talking about.

"Yes, it is still there. I let Lewis to take care of it. He's seriously making a stumbling block for Lora and them."

Speaking of Lora, Sunny remembers that she has one more thing to do.

"Let's go and see Snail Shell later, if you want to see how it is now."

Kevin turns the steering wheel and remembers what he saw in Andrei Hawkins' bedroom. "Ellen, there's a question I want to ask you. Do you still want to take revenge?"

What Kevin said suddenly catches her attention, which reminds her of the purpose of their meeting is to find out the cause of her father's death and bring the murderer to justice.

"Now after so long, is there anything else we can do?"

"Physical evidence may be difficult to find, but it is not difficult to make the murderer confess."

Sunny is silent for a moment. "OK, but I want to do it myself."

After hearing this, Kevin almost turns the steering wheel in the wrong direction. "Do you know what you're talking about?"

"I want to take revenge by myself. I have to do this! OK?"

Kevin is silent for a moment and wants to skip this question, but he didn't expect Sunny to insist. "You promise me, I don't want to rely on you for everything. In the past, I was a person with no influence or strength, I had no other choice. But now, I don't want revenge. I just want to know the truth."

"Then promise me to be careful."

Seeing him give in, Sunny nods happily. "I know, I know. Mr. Quinn, you can rest assured."

"Ellen, when everything's over, we'll have an interesting story to tell at the wedding and to our children. Macie Ellen is my child, OK?"

Sunny is a little surprised that he would talk about that at this time. She hesitates and nods her head, "OK."

"Are you serious?"

Sunny looks at Kevin, who seems surprised. "As long as what you say is true, then what I say is true."

Kevin is happier after he heard this and nervously rubbing his hands. "What I said, of course is true."

"Then, what I said is true."

Sunny looks at his figure, the edges of his face seem to be sharper than before. "You have lost weigh."

Sunny mutters.

"What are you saying?"

Kevin doesn't hear what she is saying to herself. He tilts his head and asks.

"No, what do you want to eat tonight. I'll make it for you."

Sunny makes up her mind to help Kevin gain some weight.

"I will eat anything you cook."

"You are a sweet talker. After we finish at the company, let’s go to the food market to buy some ingredients for dinner."

After this talk, Kevin's car stops and he says, "Here we are."

Sunny takes a look at the building outside and suddenly feels a little timid. "I’d better not come in."

Kevin pulls her out of the car. "Mrs.Quinn, what are you afraid of."

Sunny looks down at her dress. She looks like a housewife, without makeup.

"I can't go in with this look..."

Sunny's hand is grabbing the corner of her dress. She is really nervous.

Kevin chuckles when he hears the reason why she doesn’t want to go in.

"Don't laugh. I'll wait for you in the car."

Sunny, becomes more nervous after Kevin's mockery, she turns around and wants to get back in the car.

But Kevin quickly locks the door of the car and says, "Mrs. Quinn, come here."

What kind of trick is he playing!

Sunny takes a wary look at Kevin, only to see him walk to her and then starts to undress in front of her.

"Kevin, Kevin, what are you doing, don’t act indecently during daytime."

Before Sunny finishes yelling, Kevin neatly takes off his jacket and puts it on Sunny's shoulder. "You look much better now.”

......

Sunny looks down at her attire and deeply doubts Kevin's aesthetics.

"Let’s go. Why are you so entangled? All the staff in the company know you. What are you afraid of?"

"What if there is a new comer..."

Sunny murmurs behind Kevin, but there is no better choice, so she puts on his coat.

"Colleagues, the president said that he would come back later today, bringing an important guest with him. I expect everyone to be energetic and to entertain the guests."

A lovely girl looks at the mirror in the bathroom, trying to refine her makeup. She’s even trying to let the women around her to do the same thing with her.

"I don't care who this important guest is. The President seldom comes to the company, it’s more important to make him happy."

Just as she was saying, a sound of flushing came from a closed-door of the cubicle. All the gossipers in front of the washing table hold their breath and look at each other.

The door opens, and the new secretary of the president, Lettie Clarke comes out.

They all glance at her with a disdainful look and then go on their talking.

"Will the guest be the president's wife? I heard that he managed to get her back."

"Bah," says Lettie Clarke, with a disdainful chuckle. "You really have nothing better to do."

The lovely girl from the front desk doesn't say anything, and the other people nearby are unconvinced and retort, "Someone is so jealous now!"

Lettie Clarke says angrily, "What are you talking about?"

Just then, a man comes from outside, "The president is here. Why are you still here talking nonsense?"

They put away their hostility, as they tidy up their stuff.

Sunny follows Kevin and walks in the elevator. She goes out of the elevator completely unaware of what is going on. Not clear why but she felt somewhat nervous.

"Kevin, have you got any new staff in your company recently?"

Kevin recalls, "I don't know.This matter doesn't concern me."
