Free Web NovelChapter 1152: Chapter 1148: The Young Madam Is Missing
"Yes, I admit, that time in the United States, in that hotel, the person who slept with you was me, and the child in your womb is mine. Have you thrown away all the kindness I’ve shown you recently, fed it to the dogs, huh? Is your heart still thinking about Oliver Johnson?"
He admitted it, he finally admitted it himself.
Eva Miller lifted her head, her lips full of mockery.
"Luke Land, you’re not worthy to mention Brother Johnson to me!"
Not worthy?
He sneered, clenching his hands into fists, struggling to control the impulse in his body. He took a deep breath and then strode out of the room.
"Keep an eye on her. Report to me if anything happens." Luke Land said to the maid outside the door, then walked into the study.
He felt irritated, with no outlet for relief.
In the past, when he felt irritated, it was easy to resolve—smoke, alcohol, and women were enough.
But now?
He hadn’t touched other women for a long time. Because she was pregnant, he had also quit smoking and drinking for a while. He searched the study for a long time but didn’t see any sign of cigarettes. He then went to the kitchen downstairs, opened the fridge, and looked around—there wasn’t a single bottle of wine!
He kicked over a chair beside him.
"Second Young Master, do you need anything? I can go get it for you..." The butler stood aside, nervously asking.
Actually, Luke Land didn’t used to have such a temper, but ever since this Young Madam entered the house, his temper seemed to have gotten a bit worse. All of Luke Land’s emotions seemed to be controlled by Eva Miller—he was happy because of her, unhappy because of her too.
"Second Young Master, what do you need? I’ll go find it for you..." The butler reiterated.
"No need." He coldly threw out the words and turned to go upstairs again.
He sat at the desk, leaning back in his leather chair, closing his eyes. Weariness welled up from his heart. Really, in just a brief moment, the relationship between him and her had undergone a tremendous change. As for how to salvage it, that was definitely a huge problem.
He didn’t know how long had passed when a frantic knock on the door sounded.
"Second Young Master, it’s bad, it’s bad! Young Madam is missing!"
Luke Land suddenly opened his eyes, pulled the chair back, and strode out.
"What did you say?" His voice was low and chillingly cold.
"Young, Young Madam is missing..."
"Didn’t I tell you to keep an eye on her? Now you’re telling me she’s missing? How the hell do you do your job?"
The Luke Land in front of her had bloodshot eyes, like a bloodthirsty leopard. He grabbed the maid’s arms and squeezed hard. The maid’s face was contorted, as if he were about to crush her bones.
"Second Young Master, I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Young Madam said she wanted to eat something and asked me to go to the kitchen to make it. Who knew, when I brought the food to the room, Young Madam, Young Madam she was gone..." The maid stammered in explanation.
Luke Land released the maid, anxiously heading to the master bedroom to take a look around, discovering she hadn’t even taken her phone with her. Glancing at the darkening sky, his feelings of anxiety and impatience intensified.
This woman, is it necessary?
Does she really hate him that much?
...
Eva Miller pressed the accelerator harder, driving the car at high speed. With a screeching halt, she stopped in front of the Land Family’s villa square. freēwebnovel.com
"Oh, it’s Miss Miller, how come you’re here all of a sudden? Have you had dinner yet? The Young Master and Miss Smith are still dining. Do you want to join?" Sharp-eyed Nanny Garcia immediately noticed it was Eva Miller sitting in the car. She walked over and greeted Eva.
