Moving towards Yichan, Ning frowned when she saw the painting.
Holding the edge of the frame, Ning asked, "Who sent this?"
"Roger."
Ning frowned deeper and started examining the painting. There were two people drowning in a lake while a man was standing near the lake along a woman.
The painting made no sense to Ning, Meili and Nuying but Yichan and others knew exactly what it meant.
Passing the painting to Guiren, Yichan squatted down and took out a velvet box.
Pulling out the card which was stuck on the box, Yichan's expression turned gloomy when he read the content of the card.
"A BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF JEWELLERY FOR THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN I HAVE EVER MET."
Crumbling the card, Yichan tossed it on the box along with the jewellry box.
Taking the painting from Guiren hand, Yichan shoved it inside the box and gestured the guard to take it away.
"Wait a second." Taking out the jewellery box, Ning asked the guard to take it away.
Keeping the jewellery box on the table, Ning cupped Yichan's cheeks and asked, "You trust me right?" When Yichan nodded his head, Ning added, "If we throw this away just like that, he will think that we kept it. We have to return this back to him and I'll do it for us."
Yichan vigorously shook his head and said, "I don't want you to see him again and it's not because I don't trust you, it's because I don't trust him."
"I am not going to meet him, I'll send someone." Ning said.
"Lady boss, I can go and return this box for you along with a few kicks and punches. Dammnn I hate that guy." Linhou frowned and gritted his teeth.
Patting Linhou's shoulder, Jason asked him to calm down. Everyone hated Roger with the same intensity but this wasn't the time to act impulsively. All of them knew how sly and cunning Roger was. Jason also knew that Roger had a connection with their lady boss. He was terrified and shocked when he hacked into Roger's phone and found his gallery stuffed with only Ning's pictures. All the pictures were taken from a far distance and Jason could easily say that Ning had no idea when the pictures were taken. He was yet to tell his big boss about the pictures.
"Thank you so much Linhou but I think I can take care of this." Ning wanted to deal with this on her own. She had no idea what kind of past Roger shared with her husband and what that painting meant but she had a different relation with Roger. Things became more complicated because of the feelings that Rogers harboured for her and she wished to deal with that on her own.
"Alright, let everything be for now and let's go home and take some rest." Bojing said.
"I think brother Bojing is right, let's not stress over it for now. I'll come and pick everyone up tomorrow at eleven. We still need to attend Bruce's show tomorrow." Ning said.
"I'll be ready by eleven." Suyan said.
Turning towards Hannah, Ning asked, "Han, you are joining us right?"
Kissing Hannah's forehead, Yufan said, "She will, right babe?"
When Hannah nodded her head, Meili added, "We are gonna have so much fun tomorrow."
…..
Bojing and Suyan's place.
When Suyan was done with her night skin care routine, Bojing patted the empty space beside him and gestured her to come over.
Slipping into the cover, Suyan wrapped her arms around his waist and placed her head on his chest.
Wrapping his arms around her, Bojing asked, "What happened?"
Placing her chin on his chest, Suyan asked, "Who is this Roger?"
"Roger is Yichan, Guiren, Yufan and Guang's childhood friend." Bojing said.
"Hmm so they aren't friends anymore?" Suyan asked.
Bojing shook his head and explained, "Many things happened several years back. I was out of the country attending my college at that time so I wasn't present when the incident happened."
Keeping quiet for quite sometime, Suyan asked, "So is Roger dangerous?" The way everyone reacted after seeing the painting, Suyan had a feeling that something was not right.
Caressing her cheeks, Bojing asked, "Are you worried?"
Snuggling closer, Suyan nodded her head. "I am worried about you. If he is dangerous, what if he harms you? What if he harms anyone?"
Kissing her forehead, Bojing smiled. "Dont worry about anything okay? I am there to protect you. I wont let him harm anyone. You trust me right?"
Suyan smiled and nodded her head, "More than anything in this world."
"And that is all that I need."
Wrapping her legs around him, Suyan slowly closed her eyes.
Bojing was loving how Suyan was no more as cautious or scared as she was before. She had started talking to him more openly and had started sharing her worries and problems with him.
He regretted not making a move to make things right between them earlier but it was never too late for love right?
…..
Han mansion
"Where is she?" Yufan asked.
"Young madam is in her room, she was very scared when she arrived. Mr Bai Shaofeng dropped her in the mansion and has asked you to call him later when you have time." The house helper said.
"Why didnt you call me?" Yufan asked.
The helper lowered her head and answered, "Young madam ordered us not to disturb you both."
Looking at her husband, Hannah panicked, "Yufan that-"
Cupping her face, Yufan said, "Hey, calm down okay? Nothing will happen, everything is alright. I'll go and check on Yifie. Honey, why don't you go to the room and stay with Lara?"
When Hannah nodded her head, Yufan gestured the helper to take Hannah to the room while he rushed towards his sisters room.
…..
Yifie's room
Turning on the lights, Yufan frowned when he did not see Yifie on the bed.
Looking around, he widened his eyes in shock when he saw sitting on the floor in one of the corners of the room.
"Yifie." Yufan shouted before rushing towards her.
