EX-husband Groveling to Me novel Chapter 117

Suny watched the Austin inside the rear view mirror of the car getting smaller and smaller, the look on her face finally gradually eased up.

So eager to trouble her to give him a lift?

Then she satisfied him.

The suburbs here were fifteen kilometres away from the city, Austin's mobile phone was taken away by her, so if he wanted to go back from the suburbs tonight, he would walk for four hours.

Back in the city, she went straight to the police station with the mobile phone.

Just after 8pm, the policeman on duty froze when he saw Suny: "Miss, do you want to report a crime?"

Suny smiled lightly and took out Austin's mobile phone, "No, I picked up a mobile phone on the road."

The policeman on duty took a look at the mobile phone Suny was holding, not a common model, but expensive.

"Oh, then please come and register."

Suny raised her eyebrows and followed the policeman on duty to do the registration.

It was only five minutes before and after that she was out of the police station.

Back at the villa at exactly nine o'clock, Suny took a bath, put on a mask and went to bed in a happy mood.

At 9:30, Elijah received a phone call.

Once he saw that it was an unknown number, Elijah simply refused to answer it.

But just after refusing to answer, the number called again.

Elijah lost his patience, he wanted to see which little brat!

"Who is it?"

"It's me."

As soon as he heard the familiar cold accent, Elijah immediately changed his attitude: "Austin? Whose phone did you take to call me?"

Austin answered: "I'm at the store at the Xinfeng intersection, come and pick me up."

"How do you -"

Elijah looked at the call that had been hung up, resisted the urge to curse, lifted the trousers he was just about to take off in the shower, put on his shoes and went out to pick up Austin.

But the address Austin gave was vague and unclear, so Elijah searched for almost twenty minutes before he found Austin.

"What are you doing here?"

Austin screwed the cap on the bottle and gave him a sidelong glance, "So much talk."

Elijah was a bit dissatisfied: "I came out to pick you up at night, you have to tell me how you came here, right? Also, where is your mobile phone? How did you use someone else's phone to call me?"

Austin got into the car, "Suny brought me here, she took my phone away."

Elijah froze for a moment, with his IQ, he really didn't quite understand: "I don't quite understand what you mean, Suny brought you here, how come she didn't take you away? Also, what are you doing here in the suburbs in the middle of the night? The stars are particularly bright in this countryside, so it's good to enjoy the stars and the moon?"

Saying that, Elijah looked up at the sky, "There are no stars."

"Didn't your geography teacher tell you that there are few stars when the moon is bright?"

Elijah felt the mockery: "This is not the point, the point is what is going on with you guys?"

Austin inclined his head to look at him, "Are you driving or not? If not, I'll drive."

Elijah drove the car in the end.

When the car drove out for about five or six minutes, Elijah's mind suddenly felt like it had been illuminated by the light of wisdom, and he understood what Austin's words meant.

He looked around and it just so happened that there was a late-night snack stall not far in front of him, he drove the car over, looking at Austin and smiled, "Austin, you mean, Suny purposely sent you here and took your phone away so you could walk back, huh?"

Austin's face stiffened, he inclined his head and looked coldly at Elijah who was laughing at him, "It's still early, do you want to make a trip to the boxing gym?"

Elijah couldn't laugh at once: "No need, I'm a bit sleepy, let's go back quickly! I won't laugh at you!"

Ten minutes later.

"Pfft, hahahaha - sorry, I still can't help it, so just hit me!"

"......"

To be honest, Austin regretted asking Elijah to come and pick him up.

Why didn’t he get Antonio?

Why he had to call Elijah?

"Goddess! Suny is simply my goddess! She can actually do such amazing things! I really worship her!"

"Stop the car."

Elijah, who was still immersed in the joy of ridicule, stopped the car, "What's wrong?"

"I'll drive."

Elijah looked over at Austin and stopped laughing, "Don't be like that, friend!"

"Go over."

Austin went straight around to the driver's seat, and Elijah had to move to the passenger side.

Fifteen minutes later, the car pulled up to the boxing gym.

Elijah looked at the familiar door sign: "......"

Seriously?

Of course, it was said that the whole gym was filled with Elijah's "pleasant" screams, and when the two of them came out of the gym, it was already after eleven o'clock at night.

Elijah, who was smiling happily before entering the boxing gym, was now sitting on the passenger side, grimacing: "Do you have to be so harsh?"

Austin didn't say anything and drove the car straight back down to his apartment building, then got out: "Good night."

Elijah, hurt all over, said, "What?"

He had to drive back himself?

When Ivan received the call from the police station, Austin had just come out of the conference room after a meeting.

He took one look at Austin, who was dressed in a suit and had a cold face, and thought he might have encountered a telephone scam.

How could Mr. Johnson's mobile phone be missing? He had a driver to take him in and out, and he was almost around him during working hours, so how could he lose his phone?

But with the serious rigor of not letting go of a single possibility, Ivan still walked up to Austin: "Mr. Johnson, have you lost your phone?"

Austin, who was planning to ask Suny for his mobile phone after work in the evening, could not help but frown when he heard Ivan's words, "How did you know?"

Elijah could not keep his mouth shut?

Ivan was secretly glad he had asked, otherwise he would have been remiss!

He hurriedly said, "I just got a call from the police station, saying that you lost your phone and someone picked it up and took it to the police station."

Austin: "......"

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Ivan was apprehensive: "Mr. Johnson, do you think I should send someone over to the police station to get your phone back for you?"

"Isn't it going to be in person?"

Austin gave him a look, thinking how even the secretary had become a bit stupid today.

Ivan's heart fluttered, "Yes, Mr. Johnson."

"Get the car ready, I'm going to the police station."

Any slightest chance of personal contact was not left to him.

Austin pursed his lips for a moment, feeling blocked in his heart.
