A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 136

“Michelle, I had resigned. Don’t panic. What happened to HL Group?” Sunny is somewhat puzzled.

“Roger has already rushed over, but everyone in HL Group has a lot on their plates now, so I wonder if you’re safe. After all, I recommend you for HL Group.”

What Michelle says is in disorder, but Sunny feels warmth.

“Michelle, thanks for your concern. I had left HL Group. I didn’t have time to tell you because of the special situation before. I’m fine. You have to take good care of yourself.”

After settling down Michelle, Sunny frowns and looks at Kevin.

“What’s wrong? What happened to HL Group?”

The voice in the phone is clear, so Kevin can hear Michelle shouting in the phone clearly.

“I don’t know what happened, but it is definitely not a good thing.”

“I’ll send someone to investigate it tomorrow. Do you need a few days off from the hospital? There is plenty to do. If I get busy, I can’t take care of you...”

Sunny wants to say that she will be fine alone. However, when she sees that Kevin’s eyes are filled with worry, she thinks that it is better for her to follow his advice.

“I’ll ask the director for leave now. Wait for me for a while.”

Kevin thinks for a moment and says, “I’d better come with you. Anyway, it’s the same wherever I wait.”

Sunny agrees him, so they walk to the director’s office together.

“Director, I am Sunny. I’m in the middle of something at home. Could I take a few days off?”

The director is an old and unmarried woman.

When she hears Sunny say that the latter is in the middle of something, she looks up with glasses and asks, “What’s the matter?”

“My father passed away.”

Sunny has already learned to lie through her teeth. Kevin, who is eavesdropping outside the door, feels interesting and raises his eyebrows.

“Is that so?”

“My mother died when I was very young. My father is the only family I have, so I hope to settle his affairs by myself.”

Sunny says as she remembers her father, who had passed away for a period of time. However, she has not found out the real cause of his death, nor has she revenged for him.

“I see. You can take a few days off until you finish settling his affairs.”

After that, the director straightens her glasses and looks down on her files expressionlessly.

“Thank you, Director.”

Sunny excitedly bows to the director, and then pretends to wipe the tears off her face before running out.

“Good for you.”

Kevin looks at Sunny running out and praises her in a low voice.

“Just a piece of cake.”

“Let’s go. What should we start from?” Sunny asks.

“Come with me to the company. I’ll finish my work and leave it to Hogan.”

However, Sunny is somewhat worried, “If you leave everything to Hogan, what are you doing?”

Kevin leisurely folds his hands behind his head and says, “If I have to do everything by myself, then why should I be the president? Why should I hire a group of staff?”

Sunny also thinks so and she doesn’t think of it anymore.

“Go and get your car. I’ll wait for you.”

Sunny says righteously.

Kevin shrugs his shoulders with hands up and says, “Miss, you should at least go downstairs. What’s your point of stopping on the second floor? Do I need to drive the car up to second floor to pick you up?”

Sunny says stubbornly, “I mean to ask you to stop your car on the first floor, and I’ll slowly walk downstairs.”

Unexpectedly, Kevin is impatient. He directly grabs Sunny’s arm and says, “Cut the crap. Move on.”

When they reach the first floor, Kevin gets a phone call from Hogan.

“Boss, where are you now? A gentleman came to the office and insisted on seeing you.”

Kevin looks at Sunny in surprise, and asks, “Who is he?”

Hogan says, “His last name is Louis. He said that he knew Miss Sunny?”

Kevin finally knows who the man is.

“Tell him to wait for a moment. I will be back soon.”

After Kevin hanging up the phone, Sunny curiously leaned forward to him and ask, “Is someone looking for you?”

Kevin plays the car keys in his hand and says, “A couple is looking for us in the same time.”

Sunny immediately understands, “Hon...”

She almost blurts out “Honey Roger”, but she stops in time when she sees Kevin’s profile.

“Roger?”

And she tactfully changes her word.

Kevin answers, “Yes. I don’t know he is looking for me. Let’s go. Since he is waiting for us, we’ll go and meet him.”

Before Sunny can say no, Kevin drags her away.

“Slow down, I won’t run away.” Sunny says.

“I can’t wait to know what happened to HL Group. I can’t wait to see if Roger will plea for help with a stern face.”

Sunny cries secretly when she knows Kevin’s intentions, and she complains about him.

“Darling, don’t you want to see it?”

Seeing that Sunny seems to be unwilling, Kevin asks gloomily and grits his teeth.

For the sake of her own life, Sunny sucks it up and says what she doesn’t mean, “I also want to see Ro... Roger plea for help. Let’s go.”

But in her heart, she is secretly confessing, “Honey Roger, what I said is not true. You are still my favorite Honey Roger.”

Kevin drives over and whistles, asking Sunny to get in the car.

Looking at the showy car and the arrogant driver, Sunny can’t help but sigh, “You are really arrogant and showy.”

After that, she quietly gets into the showy car.

Just as she fastens her seat belt, Kevin deliberately steps on the gas and the car speeds away. Sunny is thrown onto the back of the seat by centrifugal force before she can sit steadily. Then, she is pushed fiercely to the windshield with a rapid deceleration.

“Kevin!!!”

Sunny can’t help but roar after the car stops.

But Kevin innocently shrugs his shoulders, “Darling, there are pedestrians in the road. I can’t hit them, right?”

Sunny stares at him in anger and grits her teeth. “I’ll pay you back.”

Kevin grins and says, “Gladly.”

With that, he drives ahead in a normal speed.

When they arrive at the company, Kevin sees Roger pacing anxiously in the reception room. Thus, he adjusted his clothes and forces Sunny to hold his arm.

Then he pushes open the door and walks in with Sunny.

“Mr. Roger, I’m sorry to have kept you waiting. I went out to see a doctor just now.”

Kevin purposely pretends to be miserable. Roger is angry but he can’t find an excuse to vent his anger.

Thus, Roger can only ponderously express his concern, “Are you feeling better now, Mr. Kevin?”

Kevin nods, and then he says to Sunny, “Darling, sit down please. I suppose Mr. Roger has something to tell us.”

For some reason, Sunny dares not to look at Roger.

However, Roger doesn’t mind so much. He also sits down.

“I come here for a reason. I need your help.”

Kevin raises his eyebrows and says, “Go ahead. I’ll see if it is what I’m thinking.”

Roger is puzzled.

He says, “HL Group has been trapped. It’s in a mess now. I can’t bear to watch Michelle worry about her unlucky brother every day. That’s why I come to you.”

Kevin crosses his legs, reaches out to hug Sunny and says, “What can I do for you?”

“Just turn a man over to me. You don’t need to do anything else.”

Kevin asks, “Who is it?”

Roger glances at Sunny and say slowly, “His nickname is Jonathan. I don’t know his real name.”

When Kevin hears Jonathan’s name, he understands and confirmed, “He trapped HL Group, right?”

“Not totally. I can only tell that he is the ringleader. Right now, everyone in HL Group has a lot on their plates. The directors are going to withdraw their shares. Michelle’s brother is very worried and anxious.”

Kevin can’t help but snicker when he thinks of Michelle’s brother’s appearance.

“That’s overwhelmed for you.”

“That’s why I need your help. Turn Jonathan over to me. That will be good for everyone.”

“Mr. Roger, did you make a mistake? Jonathan isn’t in my hand, so I can’t turn him over to you.” Kevin says, yawning.

Roger’s face finally changes, and he asks, “What did you say?”

“Sorry to waste your time, but I don’t know where Jonathan is. He tried to poison me last time. I am looking for him, too.”

Roger looks suspiciously at Kevin and Sunny. Finally, Sunny can’t remain calm and she says, “Roger, we really don’t know where Jonathan is. We have his address. If you need it, I can tell you. But since he knows that you’re looking for him, will he stay there?”

Roger glances at Sunny and believes what she said.

“Then tell me the address. I’ll take a look there.”

“No problem. It is a little thing.”

Kevin casually tears a piece of paper and writes down Jonathan’s address.

“Is it true?”

Kevin is angry and laughs, “I don’t care if you believe me or not.”

Sunny can only be a peacemaker and say, “Roger, the address is real. Don’t you believe me?”

Roger says, “Well, thank you. I have to leave now.”

Kevin waves his hand and says, “Good-bye, dear Roger.”

After Roger leaves, Sunny throws herself onto the sofa and asks, “Is Jonathan really a bad buy? I think he is a good person.”

Everyone thinks that Jonathan is a good person because of what happened to Bella, so Kevin doesn’t know what to say.

But he can change the subject, “Don’t you call him master now?”
