Mr Carroll Went Crazy After Divorce

Seeing how awkward things were becoming between them all, Seth laughed nervously before suggesting, “Since we’re done playing now, why don’t we all grab dinner together?”

“No thanks.” Aurora took off her gloves while saying curtly, “I have something else I need to attend to.”

Seth didn’t seem too pleased by this response but he also wasn’t going to push it further since he barely knew them anyway.

Sion glanced over at him briefly before siding with Aurora naturally, “Aurora is tired now. Let’s talk about it next time.”Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

Seth turned his head towards Elle beside him instead, “Then, let’s talk next time.”

At the end of the day, to avoid trouble, Seth had to take another car instead of hitching a ride with Aurora after being ruthlessly rejected. After returning to the city, Aurora dropped off Elle at home and immediately took out her phone. There were several missed calls from Morgan’s bodyguards. She couldn’t wait any longer and called back right away. She had made sure her phone was on silent all day, in case Sion would suspect something.

Almost as soon as someone answered the phone, she asked eagerly, “How did it go? Did Momo get picked up?”

“Miss Robertson, the mission failed.”

“… Failed?”

So that meant she spent all day working for free with Sion instead of successfully picking up Morgan.

What a waste of time!

Aurora banged her head twice on the steering wheel in frustration until she started laughing at herself. But for some reason, images of Sion rescuing her repeatedly throughout the day flashed through her mind-his heartbeat synchronizing with hers during their close encounters and those eyes that seemed to hold only her.

She must be going crazy.

Aurora scolded herself for being so weak-minded over such a small matter. He was just a fake gentleman.

Since this attempt failed already, it seemed like they needed to find a more suitable opportunity.

Only after calming down did she start driving again and merge into traffic.

Sion returned to his company in an extremely good mood. Even the security guard at the entrance could tell Mr Carroll was having an exceptionally good day today.

“Mr Carroll.” Greeted the receptionist at the front desk.

“Hmm, you’ve done well.”

“Hum?”

However, he didn’t bother checking what kind of reaction that receptionist had towards him anymore. He went straight into the elevator without looking back. Everyone in his work area was busy but upon seeing Mr Carroll come back they put down their work briefly just to greet him.

“Mr Carroll.”

Sion nodded and said, “Good job everyone.”

It was rare for Sion to be so joyful which made everyone present stare wide-eyed in disbelief.

“What happened?”

Was there something miraculous happening today?

Everyone was guessing in their hearts, but they heard even more unbelievable news the next second.

Sion had one hand in his trouser pocket and a slight smile on his lips, saying, “I’ve seen everyone’s efforts during this time, and I’ll have David send out a bonus for everyone later.”

What good news did Mr Carroll have exactly?

Guess as they might, no one dared to ask him directly. So they cheered before getting back to work.

Sion returned to his office and saw him staying behind at the company unexpectedly.

“Morgan, why are you here?” he asked with surprise.

The female secretary next to Morgan greeted him before leaving.

“Because… because I missed Daddy.” Morgan guessed that those strange guys today were likely sent by Mommy to catch her but she couldn’t tell him about it so she played dumb instead.

“Silly girl,” Sion pinched her face indulgently but still said somewhat seriously, “You can’t run around alone like this again. Donna will worry if she finds out you’re missing and more importantly, what if something dangerous happens? Hmm?”

“I… I know I’m sorry.” Her voice lowered. Morgan felt bitter inside but couldn’t say anything about it either.

Mommy’s matter must be told by herself to Daddy or else their misunderstanding between them will never be resolved forevermore.

Seeing her dejected expression, Sion didn’t scold her anymore while taking out his phone and sending a message to Donna.

Then he said again, “Tell me where you want to go beforehand next time. Today’s incident shouldn’t happen again okay?”

“… Okay.” Morgan obediently nodded her head.

“Mmm.” Sion patted her little head satisfactorily then put away his phone, standing up while holding onto her small hand and saying, “Let’s go home.”

Morgan looked up at him with many things on her heart, wanting to say yet could only keep it inside for now.

Early the next morning before going to work again, Sion specifically instructed Donna not to let Morgan move around alone anymore.

This little girl seemed well-behaved on the surface yet was smarter than ordinary children. She might suddenly disappear again, causing people around her worries.

After finishing the morning meeting at the company, Sion returned to his office.

“Mr Carroll,” David entered the room with a file folder in his hand, “here are the DNA test results, please take a look.”

He opened the folder and handed Sion a report. Sion put down the file in his hands and took it nervously. His heart raced as he flipped to the last page.

“Based on this DNA test, it is highly probable that there is a genetic relationship between the two. The probability was over 99. 99%.”

Sion couldn’t believe what he was seeing. Morgan was his daughter!
