The Undefined Love - Chapter 323

‘Little girl’ was the name where everything got started. She never revealed her name to Deming, playing her childish games. But today when she suddenly heard him calling her with the same old name, her senses reacted to it.

Before he could register anything happening around her, her lips and tongue had already done its work of responding.

She was thanking her heavens whose grace saved her today. She never expected something like this to surface suddenly. Her guards were so down that she never saw his suspicions coming.

She sighed in relief when Deming left his questioning session and resumed himself into driving his way back. At least she was saved for the time being.

Suddenly a fear surfaced her thoughts. What if today she has fallen in the trap and gave away the secret she was hiding just like that. No, there were still things related to Jie which are left to be solved.

If he comes to know this now, then there would be no way through which she would be able to explain him. She needs everything to go according to her plan. Only that ensures damage at a small scale.

Somewhere her own heart was craving to tell him everything. For a moment she thought of telling him everything and not care of anything else. But she herself knew that this will bring mental damage to the man and also she won’t be able to guarantee what will happen to Long Jie after that.

Soon they were in the lobby of the TULIP HYDE PARK.

“Just go in first. I need to make some calls and also park this car”, he said as he stopped his car to let Life get out.

Though he wasn’t able to confirm his thoughts about Lifen but there was no way he won’t be investigating it further. He needs to know why he is feeling so strongly that the little girl and Lifen has got some kind of connection.

Lifen nodded her head and got out of the car. She too has to make some calls. With resolving problems around her friend Guang, she almost forgot that today was the last day she has given to Jie to resolve the rumors by her own will. But it seems like her words didn’t feel that serious to her ears.

He saw her silhouette getting farther and farther. When it was no more in his sight, he pulled out his phone to make a call.

Soon the call got connected, “Hunter, did you find something?”

“Leader as you have asked me to investigate Madam’s parents. I got some information. They have been killed in a car accident. The leads showed that it was a planned murder. In that car accident, Madam was also present but she was saved”

“There were no reports to where their body has been buried. Even there are no hospital records about their admittance after the accident. But there is a pair of graves where Madam often goes to pay her visit”, Hunter informed.

Pair of graves!

“Where is that place?”, he asked with his voice all cold. If she is the same little girl, then he would surely be going to the same cemetery where they have first met. He still remembers that the girl always went there to visit her parents.

He was just an answer away from the truth. The anticipation in his heart rose to its peak. His heart beat got louder making his ears heart the anxiousness he was holding inside.

“Leader, its South Memorial Park of Country A. She even went there after she returned back from London”, Hunter informed and Deming’s eyes instantly showed the disappointment.

So she was not the little girl from his memories. Then why did his heart still not accept this fact. “I don’t believe it. Check it once more. Make sure your information does not lack anywhere. I feel strongly that someone is messing around our investigation. So always cross check your information and facts twice, before taking it to be true”, he said and disconnected the call.

On the other side Lifen was also on a call back in Country A. “Erica is there any report regarding GLIMMERS. Did they come to register themselves for a new program of hunting talents, we are starting”. She asked her assistant.

“No, Boss! After that day, there has been no news from GLIMMERS. Ms. Long came to meet you, the day before yesterday. But you weren’t at the office. So I just asked her to come later. I never knew. At that time I never thought today she will be facing problems like this.”, Erica reported on the call.

Problems?

“What problems are you talking about? Did something happen back in the country?” she asked in suspicion.

“Yes boss. Yesterday after you left. The internet buzzed with the various under table deals Long Industries has indulged itself, both in the country and overseas. Now even Ms. Long’s studio GLIMMERS is under investigation. All her assets have been ceased”, she informed.

“What? But haven’t they already shifted their assets overseas? How did they still have some assets left here?”, Lifen asked. Before when she has talked to Murphy about Jie, he has mentioned that her family has already left the country and settled overseas. And they even have sold their assets they have here, then how there is still some left.

“All the assets which Long Industries has owned in the country have already been sold years ago. But the assets that are under investigation now are all registered under Ms. Long’s name. They are saying that she has got all this from the money her family has wired her in illegal ways. They even claimed her involvement in the deals overseas”, Erica said but suddenly paused.

“But Boss why am I feeling that she is innocent and is deliberately targeted by someone. I mean it’s not like I am siding with her but I don’t think she has got any brains to run a company. We can take her small studio for instance, she wasn’t even able to handle that properly. Then how can she pass her decisions in some overseas company. I don’t think she has got such a brain”, Erica mocked.

“Okay don’t laugh at others. Check for me how Ms. Long Jie is going to tackle all this?”, she ordered in a serious tone which Erica clearly understood.

When she disconnected the call, Lifen felt the door of the room opening. She turned to find Deming coming.

“What? Are you going to stay here?” she asked dumbfounded.

“Of course! Or where are you thinking of sending me? This suite is the best one here. I have especially asked the manager to prepare it for us”, he said as he put his coat on the sofa and then sat down with a huff, pretending to be exhausted.

“So what? Even if this is the best one here there are still many that are not in use and you can book them. Why do you have to stay in the same room I am staying?”, Lifen said.

“Huh? This is such a big room and we can share it. It’s not the first time we are going to share the same room. And that shouldn’t even be a problem. We have already shared a bed last day”, he said with a peak of nonchalance.

Her cheeks instantly got red. His words were very simple but the meanings hidden behind it weren’t at all simple. And looking at his expression and the slight smile his lips were holding she felt like there was a high need to dig a big hole to hide herself in.

“Fine just stay here. I won’t be saying anything. I would go and book another room for myself”, she said and then turned around to go and put her words into action.

“Really? You are going to book another room. I thought it wasn’t only me who was no more confident in self – control but now it’s quite interesting to find out your self – control is also staggering. I am impressed with my charm now, at least it has come to some use”, he continued.

“Shut up! There is nothing like that. Who told you to take my words in the other way. Only your mind can be so corrupted”, she hmphed and then slumped on the sofa beside him.

“What? Aren’t you going to book another room now? Go on. I won’t be stopping you”, he said and then took out his phone to scroll the mails he has received.

“No, I am not going. Why should I go? This room was given to me so I should be the one living here. If you don’t want to leave, then why should I compromise?” She said and then pulled her own phone out to scroll the news feeds of her company.

Hearing her words Deming smiled and then continued to look at his phone. There are still many things he wanted to clear with her and this would be the best chance to confirm those things.
