Chapter 22 Colin, Colin, Please Don't Leave!
Outside the window, it began to rain heavily. Hiram answered the phone casually. It was Cathy on the
other side of the phone, who spoke in a serious tone rarely this time, but even so, her voice was still
charming. "Last time you came to HC City, although William couldn't guess your true identity, he would
soon find out after a little investigation. My brother meant to get the plan of the Water Park as soon as
possible. At that time, you may have to come to the bidding. But at present, we have little advantage. If
the Xu family and the Lou family join hands, we have little chance of winning. "
"I will handle it. "He flicked the ash on his finger and answered carelessly.
"That's good. I don't have to work so hard if you are there. By the way, the girl you asked me to
investigate last time has resigned. According to my information, she can't be the one you found. "Hiram
didn't know what Cathy was busy with, but he heard her voice suddenly became much clearer. After a
pause, she continued, "and Hiram, that person is dead. "
"I know. "When Hiram mentioned that person, his heart skipped a beat. "But I always feel that she is
still alive, right beside me. "
They kept silent for a while at the same time. What happened that year was a great blow to him. For so
many years, no one dared to mention the matter of Emma in front of him, as if she was a rotten scar in
his heart. If someone touched it slightly, blood would flow out. Hiram also realized something and said
"Cathy, go to bed early if there is nothing else! "
"Well, it's still early. And Hiram, how's everything recently? "Cathy didn't mention it any more. Instead,
she turned to ask about his wedding life. The Mo family had asked to keep their marriage as a secret,
so she hadn't been able to attend the ceremony at that time.
Moreover, he didn't plan to get married at all. If it weren't for Ethan's coercion, he would have been
single for the rest of his life.
"Just as usual. "Hiram's face darkened when he thought of Alline who was threatening him. He calmed
himself down and said "Well, I'm about to hang up. Please call me if anything happens. "
After hanging up, he sat on the chair and relaxed himself. After a long time, he stood up and went into
the bathroom. After taking a shower, he lay on the bed and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. He
sat up and kept checking the time. However, he found that Alline still hadn't come back.
He scratched his hair irritably, got up and went downstairs. He asked Zelda, "hasn't Alline come back
yet? "
"No, it's raining heavily. Young Mistress is busy with her business. She hasn't come back yet! "Zelda
was also a little anxious. She looked at the rain and said with a sad face.
"Zelda, go to sleep first. I'll wait for her! "Said Hiram lightly.
After thinking for a long time, he finally took out his mobile phone and dialed the number that he had
never called. It was the first time that he called Alline, but she didn't answer his phone. Hiram called her
again and again, and finally she answered the phone.
Her voice was not clear as usual, but sound cold and slightly drunk, which was like a little cat. He didn't
hear what she said, except the word-danger. Then he heard her mobile phone fell to the ground with a
loud sound.
Then, it was disconnected.
He called again, but the phone still couldn't be connected. His eyebrows twitched, as if he wanted to
strangle her. What on earth was this woman doing? Although he wanted to strangle her, he quickly
called Jenny. "Check with the staffs in the company, and see what was Alline doing today? Why can't
she answer my phone calls? "
After giving the order, he felt angry again. Why should he care about Alline? They had a very bad
relationship. Every time they met, they would sneer at each other. She laughed at him as useless as an
embroidered pillow, and he laughed at her as sarcastic as an old witch. How could he care about her?
'She will be safe. As an adult, she will be fine.' Hiram comforted himself while waiting for the news
uneasily. However, he quickly went to the second floor, took off his own pajamas and dressed himself
up.
Today was a bad day for Alline. The assistant of the sales department didn't feel well and couldn't go to
the dinner party today. However, the sales department received a big order today, so the sales
manager transferred her, an assistant of the marketing department, to the sales department and asked
her to go out to learn more. After thinking for a while, she agreed. Every night she went back home,
she would only quarrel with Hiram or get anger with him, so she didn't want to go back so early.
However, she didn't expect that the dinner party would last till midnight. More importantly, the one she
drank with was an old lecher in the other company. She was isolated and helpless. Her colleagues
wanted to help her, but they were all stopped by others.
This old lecher was good at flirting with people. Although his eyes were lust, he still acted like a
gentleman, which made people unable to find his fault. The client was God, so she could only bear the
impulse to slap him and drink one glass after another with him. Anyway, she was a good drinker, and
she could drink thousands of glasses of wine. As long as she drank with him, he would not take
advantage of her. That was what she thought. She drank a huge amount of wine, and her colleagues
were stunned. This woman was good at drinking!
Her cell phone kept ringing. She wanted to pick it up, but her client refused. He insisted on asking her
to drink one more glass of wine with him. Alline had drank almost a bottle of wine. Tonight she went out
on an empty stomach, and it was easy for her to get drunk if she didn't eat anything before drinking, so
she was uncomfortable at the moment. She felt that the fume of alcohol was surging into her throat.
She took out her cell phone, and her client leaned closer to see the name on the phone——the little
bastard. He raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Miss Alline, who calls you so late? Is he your boyfriend? "
With a forced smile, she held her body and took the phone. "It's just a friend. "
"If you want to answer the phone, how about having one more drink with me? "This time, he was
holding a glass of red wine. "I've heard that red wine will keep someone beautiful. Miss Alline, you are
such a beautiful woman. If you drink this glass of red wine, you will be more beautiful beyond
imagination! "
After saying that, he gave the wine glass to her. Although she was unwilling to drink it, she knew that if
she didn't answer the phone, Hiram would get furious when she went back. Therefore, she clinked her
glass with the man and drank it up. Then she staggered out to answer the phone. She had already
drunk more than seven points. She felt that she would suffer here tonight.
When she was drunk, she vaguely saw a familiar figure. It had been three years since that person
appeared in front of her. With a shiver, she was sober and muttered, "Colin..."
The phone in her hand fell to the ground, and then she rubbed her eyes hard. When she looked again,
she found that Colin was still there. At that moment, she felt that everything in the world was gone,
except Colin, who was not far away from her.
Three years ago, he left silently. In the past three years, she had been looking for him all over the
world, but she couldn't find him, as if he didn't exist. She had been sad and desperate, and had
hesitated. She didn't know if there was a person called Colin in the world, but without him, how could
her heart be so painful?
'Colin, Colin, please don't leave.
I'm Alline, your dear Alline. Please don't leave me!' Alline stumbled out of the bar with the figure. It was
raining hard outside, and Colin disappeared in a moment. She didn't give up looking for him. How could
she be wrong? She saw the familiar face clearly! If it weren't Colin, who would look exactly like him in
the world? There was only a child in his family, so it could only be him.
"Colin, why don't you come to see me? Colin, I'm Alline, Colin... "She rushed into the heavy rain like a
mad woman. She called his name while looking for him aimlessly.
The rain poured down. In an instant, Alline's clothes were wet, and her hair was scattered with the rain
falling down. And she looked very embarrassed. In such a rainy night, there was no one on the street,
except her. She kept looking for, running, crying and shouting. Suddenly, she was tripped and fell to the
ground.
"Colin, you're back. Why don't you come to me? Have you forgotten me? Don't you remember me?
Why don't you come to see me? "Alline knelt on the ground and burst into tears. The rain accompanied
her cry, floating for a long time.
The man who was not far away, held the black umbrella and looked at the embarrassed woman on the
ground. He clenched his fists hard. She cried so hard that his heart was painful. But should he go to
see her? How could he see her? Was he still her Colin?
He hesitated for a long time and finally decided to take a step. Suddenly, he saw a car driving over from
afar...
