Doted By The Alpha - Chapter 216

* * *

After everything had calmed down, Hanlu and Ian decided to talk in their room, leaving Lan in his grandfather’s care since he just arrived.

Deafening silence invaded the room as Hanlu waited for Ian to finally start talking, he was very patient and made sure Ian was comfortable because he knew how angry and frustrated the Omega must have been after knowing Diego Bronson, the man who hurt their son had shamelessly called him.

It was not Hanlu’s plan to tell Ian who was the culprit behind what has presently been happening to them but he was also afraid that if he didn’t, the Omega would find the truth himself. So in order to stop him from doing reckless things on his own, he was feeding Ian with all the information they found at the organization. Of course, his older brother knows this too so it was fine and Hanlu believed that it was Ian’s right to know as well.

“Have you calmed down?” Hanlu asked softly as he c.a.r.e.s.sed Ian’s flushed cheeks.

“Hmmm, I’m sorry. I was so angry…” Ian apologized as he closed his eyes before leaning towards Hanlu’s broad shoulders.

“I understand, Baby,” Hanlu assured and hugged Ian, giving him as much comfort as he could give. They became silent once more but they continued to hug until at last, Ian decided to pull away understanding there must have been more to this than on the surface. He didn’t listen to what Diego Bronson had to say since he was so angry to even listen to him but now that he had calmed down, he realized that the man could not have just called him just to apologize and he does recall he said he tried to contact Hanlu but was unable to.

“Are you ready to talk to me now? Diego Bronson is Jordan Bronson’s husband, the person who hurt Lan and Luangmin, although we don’t know if he’s directly involved in his wife’s actions or not, the fact that the investigations came out as his taking all the blame for his wife was enough indication that he was at fault despite not being involved directly,” Hanlu started, holding on to Ian’s hands and c.a.r.e.s.sed it in a soothing manner. Meanwhile, listening to it, Ian quickly nodded as he understood.

“I wasn’t able to hear everything he said since I was so angry but it seems like he wanted to talk to you. He told me he tried contacting you but was unable to… maybe that’s why he found someone to dig up my number to relay the message to you,” Ian said to which Hanlu nodded in understanding.

“Okay, I don’t know why he’s trying to contact me. You know recently that we had an encounter with their people trying to rescue David but their current location is unknown, him calling is pretty odd. I need to tell this to Older brother,” Hanlu replied after thinking. He had never seen this man in person because obviously, this man was hiding, he and his wife even left the place they were living in since they got in the country to avoid the organization so he could not believe the man was calling.

“And it’s good that you hang up immediately. If by any chance that call was being tracked down, then it would be dangerous for all of us here,” Hanlu added and smiled towards Ian. His father’s ranch was one of his secret properties so the public shouldn’t know the location, this was the reason why they were even there in the first place. If their enemies discovered it they would be in danger.

“You’re right…” Ian said only just realizing this fact even though with his line of work he should have been the first one to know this. “So? What are you going to do for now?” Ian added again, suddenly getting worried about the possible risk.

“For now, I do nothing. I’ll just report this quickly to Older brother since I think he’s only looking for me because Older brother’s whereabouts were unknown,” Hanlu replied with a sigh. Hanlu already heard what had happened when Laotian was in Botswana and if Diego and Jordan Bronson were the reason why Laotian was injured then until now they must have thought he was still unconscious or something, given the fact that he came back secretly.

“Then I should just disable my phone and change my number to be safe,” Ian said to which Hanlu agreed on.

Sighing as he sat on his swiveling chair, Diego stared at his phone and contemplated whether to call again or not before sighed once more and pressed call once again, however, when his call didn’t connect he internally g.r.o.a.n.e.d, throwing his burner phone on top of his table.

“Of course he would turn it off,” Diego breathed, massaging his temples in frustration. Now he wondered how he would be able to talk to Mo Hanlu. How will he be able to convey his message? Diego thought for seconds and later he decided to let it be, Ian Andrews for sure knew his identity so there was a huge chance that he would tell his husband that he called. Even though he wasn’t able to say what he wanted, this would be enough to let the Alpha know that he is trying to contact him.

Standing up from his chair, Diego soon left his office trailing the room towards where Jordan was staying. When he arrived, he briefly knocked on the door before he opened it.

“Feeling better?” Diego asked the moment he saw Jordan on the bed with his bowl of cherries, watching an action movie. It had been a week since they heard the news from Botswana, after crying about it for straight three days and acting depressed after, finally today the Omega seems like he’s doing better since he’s already watching movies.

“Hmmm, yeah…” Jordan replied, his eyes didn’t remove from the TV screen as he munched on his food. He looked way better than he was in Diego’s eyes so he quickly felt relieved before he walked towards the bed and sat there with his wife. He leaned a little closer and kissed his temples gently, something he always does when the Omega is feeling down.

“F.u.c.k! Such a loser, why do they always fall when the killer arrives?” Jordan suddenly said, a deep frown formed on his forehead as his eyes remained looking at the TV screen not even gracing his husband one look. Diego on the other hand, was okay with it because he is very used to Jordan’s personality. Whenever he had something he was upset about, it didn’t matter who upset him, he just went beast mode on everybody including him but despite that, Diego knew Jordan loved him. He wasn’t just that good at showing it.

“Is it okay for you to watch such movies?” Diego asked, seeing that the movie his wife was watching was very gore. Even though the scene in the movies is fake, he was afraid this could have a negative effect on the Omegas state of mind.

“Honey, I’m not that weak… and I’ve always liked these kinds of movies,” Jordan replied, and finally this time he shifted his head and looked at Diego but later he frowned and pouted. “Anyway, where were you? I’ve been waiting for you to come and visit me. You’ve been neglecting me for days now,” Jordan complained, forgetting the fact that he was the one to tell Diego to leave him alone.

“Sorry, I had something I had to take care of. Don’t worry from now on I’m going to shower you with attention all you want,” Diego assured and hugged his wife. If watching disturbing movies will make the Omega forget about the Mos then he thought it was okay.

“What were you doing to even ignore me? Is that more important than I am?”

“Of course not Honey. I was just trying to find where the Mo family was hiding for you,” Diego half lied. He was indeed looking for Mo Hanlu but it wasn’t for Jordan. He was looking for him so he could end this madness as soon as possible and hopefully live with his family peacefully like they used to.

“Really? And did you find them?” Jordan exclaimed excitedly.

“I’m sorry. With our movements being limited, it’s difficult to find their location,” Diego replied making Jordan pout in disappointment but he does understand. The Mo Family has many secret properties, aside from that their people are extremely loyal and don’t give out any information when it comes to the members of the family. Employment and planting spies is also impossible because their people are most probably trained by their secret organization and taught to be loyal from day one.

“It’s okay. I knew this was going to happen. And don’t worry, I won’t do anything rash. I’ll be patient and deliver our baby safely this time,” Jordan promised and later hugged Diego. Even though it looked like he didn’t seem to care about their baby, he does want to give birth and finally form a small family with his husband.

“So what did he say?” Ian asked, seeing Hanlu walking inside their room after saying he was going to call Mo Laotian to tell what had happened.

“He’s not answering his phone. I called the headquarters and they said he wasn’t there. Ahh he’s so going to get it from Brother-in-law,,” Hanlu said in frustration. As much as he didn’t want to betray his older brother, he also didn’t want to make Daniel his enemy because clearly, the Omega had more power now than Laotian. If he doesn’t tell, he will definitely suffer again like when Luangmin was just a baby, he wouldn’t want that to happen again. He had already set his mind that he would be the coolest uncle to his future nieces. He can’t do that if he pissed off Daniel.

Meanwhile, hearing what Hanlu just said, Ian quickly remembered his call with Daniel earlier and he instantly knew why Mo Laotian was refusing to accept Hanlu’s call.

“Ahh, of course, he’s not at the headquarters. He’s with Daniel at this moment,” Ian said, it was no secret from Ian that Hanlu idolized his older brother so much to the point that he’s become his loyal servant so Ian could imagine how Hanlu could be annoying for Laotian who only wanted to be with his wife without any distractions.

“What? Why is he there? He isn’t fully healed yet,” Hanlu said, throwing his head back before he suddenly started tapping on his phone.

“I’m going to call Doctor Feng,” he said and later it didn’t take long before the call connected. Hanlu talked to the doctor for a bit and later hung up.

“So? What did he say?” Ian asked again this time.

“Well, he’s really healed enough to do normal activities,” Hanlu replied dejectedly. He was happy that his older brother was already healed but he also couldn’t help but feel dejected that his selfish and unfeeling older brother is back. When Laotian was injured, Hanlu noticed his older brother had become nice but now that he’s fine, Hanlu was sure his devil older brother was back as well. Figures why now he was suddenly being ignored again.

“That’s it! We’re visiting Daniel too, he’s not the only one who can do that,” Hanlu suddenly said, making Ian shake his head and chuckle.

“What? You don’t want to?” Hanlu asked, seeing Ian’s reaction. Even though this was on impulse, this was actually a very great idea. It had been more than a week since Daniel decided to leave the city with Luangmin, it was only right for them to come and visit and see what their condition was. On top of that, Lan was dreading to see his younger cousin and it’s not that Lan was forbidden to travel.

“No. It’s actually a great idea,” Ian replied, this might be a bit annoying for Mo Laotian but he also wants to be with Daniel especially knowing that Luangmin hasn’t had any improvement with his sight despite a week having passed. As a fellow Omega, he thought they could relate to each other more than anyone in the family.
