Chapter 328 He Told Her That He Was Just Tired of Playing 1

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Kaleb came to pick him up.

After getting into the car, Kaleb couldn't help but joke, "You look so spirited and energetic today!"

Kenneth smiled restrainedly and said, "My little girl's so needy that I'm not energetic at all. It's just tiring!"

Kaleb smiled vaguely.

After the meeting, Kenneth came out with a very pale look.

Kaleb greeted him and whispered, "What's the matter?"

"Let's talk about it in the car!"

When he got into the car, Kenneth pulled up the window curtains before taking a light breath and saying, "Do you remember the project six months ago?" Kaleb's gaze was burning.

Kenneth gently unbuttoned a button on his shirt and suppressed his voice, saying, "I recommended the Joshua! But today's meeting news showed that both Joshua and his wife have died in an unknown car accident!"

Kaleb remained in a daze for a long time without any response.

Kenneth lowered his head and lit a cigarette, but his fingers were trembling and it took him a long time to take a sip. What he didn't tell Kaleb was that the bodies of Joshua and his wife both had obvious bruises!

In the end, Joshua saved the data with the lives of him and his wife.

Projects always required someone to take over.

Kenneth was the designated person, and this time he was duty-bound and unable to refuse.

He held the cigarette with trembling fingers, slowly smoking it. With the other hand, he felt for the velvet box in his pocket. He was supposed to propose to Eloise today, but he would get married after the New Year...

But now, could he still propose?

The appearance of Joshua's wife's tragic death lingered in his mind and he couldn't forget it!

Although he did not explain, Kaleb had already guessed from his extensive knowledge.

He remained silent.

At this moment, the black Audi experienced a violent impact and Kenneth in the back seat collided forward...

The car stopped, and a man in black rode his bicycle in front of him, looking into the car with a light and ethereal gaze that seemed to have perspective function.

The driver cursed and wanted to get off.

Kenneth suppressed his headache and stopped him, "Don't get off the car!"

It would be even more dangerous!

Sure enough, seeing that people in the car didn't took any action, the man rode the bicycle away.

Kaleb climbed up to the back seat and checked Kenneth's injury, "Mr. Ryan, are you okay?"

Kenneth covered his waist and abdomen: A rib should be broken.

He didn't have a trace of expression on his face and said fiercely, "Just after we had a meeting, they received the news. This overseas company was really rampant!"

He wanted to replace these people and avenge for Joshua and his wife, but at this moment he had to protect himself first.

His phone rang.

It was Eloise calling, and Kenneth hesitated to pick it up. He spoke softly, "Eloise, there's something urgent in Vadiff, I have to go back first!"

How disappointed was Eloise...

Kenneth knew clearly deep down.

But now how dared he go to the apartment? Many pairs of eyes were watching him.

He gently coaxed her for a while.

After hanging up the phone. he instructed Kaleb, "Let someone watch her until she comes home safely."

Kaleb nodded.

That night, Kenneth was admitted to a private hospital in Vadiff. He broke a rib and had a concussion. He should have had a good rest, but he couldn't sleep at all. He stood at the window smoking until it was mostly midnight.

At four o'clock in the morning, Kaleb came in after finishing his work.

He saw Kenneth standing smoking and immediately exclaimed, "Why are you still smoking after being so seriously injured? Lie down and rest quickly. The doctor said you need to lie down for at least a week." He helped him lie down and said, "It was a truth that you can never get all your work finished."

As the words fell, he saw the diamond ring in Kenneth's finger and fell silent for a moment.

Kenneth leaned against the bedside and smiled bitterly, "Kaleb, I'm in such an old age but I'm still dating a little girl! It have been four years, what will I be like after four years? Although I always say that Eloise is young, she's already 28 years old. After four years, she's already in her early thirties... How could she spend so much time with an old man like me."

Besides, he really couldn't bear to imagine what would happen when those lunatics knew about Eloise.

He couldn't take risks!

Kaleb dared not say a word more, as he knew that Mr. Ryan was in a difficult situation.

Kenneth only stayed in the hospital for three days.

On the day of discharge, Eloise called him. He silently watched for a long time before gently hanging it up.

When he hung it up, his heart ached.

He thought that his little girl must not know that her Uncle Ryan no longer wanted her.

She must had cried!

Kenneth began to distance himself from her.

With his experience and skills, it was an easy task to manipulate that little girl. He did not suddenly cool her down, but gradually became indifferent. While torturing her, he himself also suffered deeply. After the New Year, he busied himself and resumed his previous life.

He had gradually gained contact with Mr. Robinson again.

Kenneth, change back to the former Mr. Ryan.

It was early spring.

One New Year, Eloise lost several pounds. She couldn't reach Kenneth very much. Occasionally she got through the phone, which was also answered by Kaleb.

Kaleb's tone was always sorry.

No matter how dull a person was, she could feel his alienation, but she didn't have the courage to run to him to question. She could only frequently run to the apartment and wait for him eagerly. Sometimes she waited for a whole day and forget to eat.

On Valentine's Day, she saw the news of Mr. Ryan.

He supported Violet in the Opera Garden. After she finished singing, she changed into a very beautiful dress. Kenneth held her by the waist and stood together with her, looking like a right match. The newspaper slipped from her hand...

It turned out that he was in Gredax but he refused to meet her.

Eloise lowered her eyes and the corners of her eyes were wet, but she still called him... she always wanted an explanation.

Kenneth was at the club.

When the phone rang, he stopped his card and quietly looked at the number.

[Eloise Clark]

Mr. Robinson joked, "Wow, one of your girls is catching up again?"

Kenneth paused for a moment for recovery and smiled calmly, "Just a child. How could she persist on this forever?"

He continued to play with the cards and lightly said, "Ms. Harris, help me pick it up."

Violet couldn't figure out what he meant for a moment. She was a woman and was sensitive enough to realize that Mr. Ryan had a very close relationship with this Eloise. For a while, Mr. Ryan gave her a cold shoulder...

She didn't know why Eloise was getting back in touch recently.

However, only Violet knew that Mr. Ryan had never touched her when no one's around.

Seeing that she didn't move, Kenneth urged, "Pick it up!"

Violet had to picked it up for the sake of Kenneth and speak softly, "Hi, Ms. Clark. Your Uncle Ryan is playing at the club, why don't you come and play too?"

On the other end of the phone, Eloise's breathing was noticeably faster.

After a while, the phone hung up gently.

The card that Kenneth was about to leave Kenneth's hand was half a second slower.

Later, he smiled and said, "I said it, a child's temper won't last long, but it's annoying to keep making phone calls!"

He was smiling, but his eyes were filled with cold air.

Playing late at night, he got into the car and Kaleb asked softly, "Mr. Ryan, where are you going?"

Kenneth looked out of the car window, quietly lost in thought.

After a while, he said, "Go take a look at the apartment."

At midnight, he returned to the place that had given him countless sweets, and he was not surprised that Eloise was still there.

She fell asleep on the dining table.

At the corners of her eyes, there were wet tears.

Kenneth stood at the door, his tears hot: This silly thing must have been waiting foe a long time. She even didn't know to sleep in the room. How could she love her Uncle Ryan so much?

He went over and gently picked her up, but only when he touched Eloise did she woke up.

Her eyes were filled with tears and looked at him in a panic.

Her mouth let out a silent cry of "Uncle Ryan", and then her tears fell down. However, she didn't dare to cry out loud, she kept looking at him, wanting him to explain.

Kenneth felt a pain in his heart.

He gently placed her on the sofa and crouched down to caress her little head. His voice was gentle and he said, "Eloise, don't wait for me anymore."

She looked puzzled, as if she understood his meaning, but she also looked confused.

Kenneth was determined to be ruthless and continued to smile, saying, "Uncle Ryan is too old for a stable relationship and I'm not a good man."

Now, she completely understood.

But she didn't want to believe it.

She was once so loved by this handsome and mature man that he even took her back to Vadiff, met his mother, and they even did things that should only happened between husbands and wives in his bedroom.

She trembled her lips and whispered, "I don't believe it!"

Kenneth sat next to her, lit a cigarette and took a sip.

A thin mist rose, blurring the visions of the two.

He chuckled lightly and said, "It's been half a year now, I'm a bit bored! Eloise, you probably don't know about relationship between men and women, it's freshness only lasts most a few months. You said we're

not going to separate, you mean we will get married? Take a look at our cultural background, our social network... is it suitable for us to get married?"

Eloise's face was as pale as paper.

She didn't know how much strength she had used to avoid fainting.

She only looked at him, at this man!

At this time, his expression was exactly the same as he was with Violet.

Originally, he just treated her like a toy! Just like Violet! No... she was not as good as her, at least he turned around and looked for Voilet but she... only had a number that could never be reached.

Eloise sat there, motionless.

She was clumsy of speech and didn't know how to argue with people.

She loved him so much and couldn't do anything like a shrew.

She couldn't throw a hissy fit, saying that she would take three sleeping pills like before to force her uncle dote on her.

She couldn't do anything...

Kenneth stood up and walked to the window, silently smoking.

He said something, such as compensating her and thanking her for her company over the past six months.

She didn't respond, quietly shedding tears like a puppet doll. She sat there stubbornly, hoping that her Uncle Ryan would suddenly turn around, hug her and tell her it was all a lie.

Everything, was just a bad joke...

She waited for a long time, but instead of waiting for his embrace, the night became colder and colder.

It very cold, ice-cold...

Finally, she spoke softly, "Mr. Ryan, don't worry, I won't pester you...

Kenneth slowly turned his head.

Under the light, their gaze met, without the sweetness of the past.

Not long ago, she was still lying in his arms, giving him small bite while calling out to her Uncle Ryan warmly. He grabbed her hair and didn't let her bite there...

She left.

She cried when she left, and due to her innocent nature, she was too lazy to hide.

She didn't ask for an explanation either, as if she accepted the outcome and the fact that Uncle Ryan didn't want her...

The door was closed gently.

Kenneth's eyes shone brightly, and he trembled his fingers as he fiercely smoked the cigarette between them.

Later, he sat in front of the dining table.

There was a bowl of noodles on top, which looked very unattractive and should be made by Eloise.

He picked up his chopsticks and calmly ate the noodles, and the bowl of noodles quickly bottomed out.

And then...

He didn't know what to do anymore!

Because if Eloise was no longer in this apartment, he didn't know why he came and what he could do...
