The Spoiled Girl - Chapter 1564 Coming To See Her
“Bonnie, is everything okay?” he asked when he laid his eyes on her. Darren had the urge to hug her when he saw that she looked a bit flustered. He hadn’t seen her in so long and he just wanted to hold her for a while. But considering the situation, he tried his best to hold back this thought. He looked at her carefully, searching her eyes and scrutinizing her face. He felt as if something was wrong, and he wanted to know what it was.
Hearing Darren’s voice, Bonnie lowered her head and tried to hold back her tears. She knew that she would burst any moment now, so she took two deep breaths and tried to calm herself down. When it was not enough, she clenched one hand into a fist, pinching her palm with her nails as hard as she could. With one last deep breath, finally, she calmed down.
Once again, Darren asked, “Are you okay?” As soon as Bonnie sat across from him, he blurted out his concern.
Bonnie looked at Darren again, carefully this time. His eyes looked heavy like they were tired, and his face had a shadow on it, making it look a bit darker than usual. Not wanting to worry him, she nodded with a tiny smile and said, “I’m fine, Darren. You’ve helped me a lot. No one is causing me any trouble.”
The gloom on her face said otherwise but she refused to acknowledge it. She didn’t want to add to Darren’s burdens so she decided to keep the details to herself.
And although Darren knew that Bonnie was not telling him the truth, he didn’t press it further. He was relieved when he finally saw her. He had waited for this moment because it killed him inside not knowing when he’d be able to see her again. So instead of wasting time getting the truth out of her, he just reassured her that he would stay by her side.
Bonnie looked a little haggard, as if she had not been getting much rest, but she still looked fine.
Bonnie caught Darren staring at her when she looked up, as if he was carefully studying her. Obviously, the situation outside the prison was also not good, or there wouldn’t be a light stubble forming on Darren’s chin.
Bonnie took a deep breath and sighed internally. This was why she didn’t want to let him know that she was bullied. He would be more worried. He may have guessed it by now but she appreciated that he just let her be.
But it was when Bonnie lowered her head just a little bit that Darren could no longer hold it back. He knew something was wrong and he wanted to know what it was.
“Pull your hair away,” he demanded. Darren’s voice suddenly sounded a little cold, with some anger in his tone. He never sounded like that unless he was utterly serious.
He wanted to believe Bonnie when she said that everything was fine with her. And Bonnie almost had him, but he also knew that s
ger.
However, when Darren finished his words, there was no sound of him smashing things. So after waiting for a few more seconds, Harlan looked up curiously.
He saw Darren clenching his teeth, his eyes wide in anger. His hands were still formed into fists, but he was not moving. Harlan still kept quiet, waiting for Darren to say something. He looked at him, confused as to what he was thinking because he was looking straight ahead with vacant eyes.
At this moment, Darren was furious because of Harlan’s report. They hadn’t found anything after all that trouble. How incompetent! He thought of Bonnie forcing a smile in front of him so he wouldn’t worry even with a wound in her head. He inhaled sharply as the anger rose up in his body again.
“B-Boss?” Harlan asked cautiously. Despite his voice being a little shaky, it brought Darren back to earth.
He closed his eyes while taking deep breaths, pulled his tie loose, and suddenly stood up.
“Pack up and let’s go,” Darren said sternly with his teeth clenched. If Jacob was right in front of them, Harlan had no doubt that Darren would tear him apart directly, no questions asked.
“Boss, where are we going?” Harlan asked. Although hesitant, he still followed Darren as he was about to leave.
Suddenly, Darren stopped and turned around to face him. “Those losers are useless, aren’t they? So I will go to Jacob’s house and take his life myself,” he said coldly. Harlan looked directly at Darren’s eyes and saw that there was no other emotion except plain fury. There was also a bloodthirsty smile on his face.
At this moment, he knew that the hatred between Darren and Jacob was endless.
Harlan’s mind suddenly went blank when he heard this. He gasped when he saw Darren’s dark face and evil smirk. It was something he wished he hadn’t seen because it terrified him.
But after a few seconds, he finally came to his senses. When Darren was about to step out of the office, Harlan cleared his throat and quickly took a deep breath. Then with a racing heart, he rushed to Darren’s side and stopped him.
