A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 209

Picturing the scene, Sunny can’t imagine that. Oh, besides, Butler wants her to never come back here. On what occasion will they ever meet? Maybe they will never see each other again.

After everything is done, it’s time for her to leave. Her flight is at two o'clock in the afternoon, so she has little time left. It's time to leave, to leave this house full of memories.

Sunny walks out of the house step by step with tears running down her face. If she leaves, she can never come back. Even Macie is still here, her poor daughter, and she is so young. She feels so sorry for her.

The servants don't pay much attention to Sunny. They all know the situation of the couple. Probably all of them know. They only think that Sunny is just too depressed recently, and she is just having a stroll to take a breath.

It is until night that the servants find something is wrong. Bulter looks at the clock on the wall and the it’s already ten. He is a little worried that something is wrong with Sunny, but he also knows what happened to Kevin and he is not well. He is afraid that it will make the situation worse if he calls Kevin now.

Bulter can only stare at the door blankly, expecting Sunny to show up in the next second.

At this moment, Sunny is on the plane looking at the clouds outside in a daze. She leaves him again, last time it was because of love, and this time too. She has already prepared for the worst. Sunny doesn’t expect Kevin to understand her, just hoping that he won’t hate her.

She also hopes that Butler will do what she has said, fulfill her promise, and give Kevin the antidote.

She is about to live in a strange city with the baby in her belly, where there are no relatives, no friends, only the child in her belly to accompany her. There is no one she can rely on in the future, but only on herself.

When it’s twelve o'clock, Bulter can’t stand it anymore. He wants to call someone but doesn’t know who to call.

Should he call Kevin? Of course he shouldn’t. Kevin’s life is still at stake. How about Troy? Troy is busy developing the antidote for Kevin all the time. He will be making troubles for him to call him at this moment.

After thinking about it, Bulter finally picks out the best candidate—the father of Kevin, Wade. Wade is the elder of the Quinn family, and it will be most appropriate for him to know about this.

Yeah, that’s it. Therefore, Bulter calls Wade. Wade should have been sleeping at this time, but Macie is asking him to watch cartoons with her, so he hasn’t gone to bed yet. As it gets late, he becomes more sober.

After putting Macie to sleep, he watches TV alone in the living room.

"Ring~ring~" The landline in the living room rings.

Wade feels strange, who will call so late at night, even on the landline?

"Hello, Mr. Wade, I am the housekeeper of the Quinn's house." Bulter thought that the elder has been already asleep, and he doesn’t expect him to answer the phone so soon.

"Oh, Bulter! What is it? Why are you calling me at this time?"

"Mr. Wade, Mrs. Quinn is gone. She went out this afternoon and never went back." Bulter makes up his mind and decides to tell Wade.

Wade doesn’t know Kevin is poisoned yet, so he asks Bulter questioningly, “She didn’t come back? Did they fight? Did Kevin look for her?”

"Oh...Mr. Kevin..." Bulter hesitates, not knowing how to tell Wade or whether he should tell him or not.

"What's wrong? Don't hesitate, just say it." Wade is a straightforward person. Seeing Bulter being so hesitant, he just asks him to speak straight.

"Mr. Wade, Mr. Kevin has been poisoned, and he is still lying in the hospital. His life is at stake. I don't know what to do about this, so I came to you." Bulter eventually tells the truth. If something really happens, he can’t be responsible for that.

"What? Poisoned? His life is at stake?" These words together almost make him have a heart attack.

It has been only a few days since last time they met. What's going on? Wade stabilizes his emotions first. At this moment, he can’t mess up.
