The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) -
Chapter 1735
Zion also frowned slightly. Although he couldn't hear the sound of the engine of the car, Evangeline's mood had changed. So someone was coming?
He glanced at Evangeline and she immediately understood. She dashed straight into the room.
Zion stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. It seemed that he was just looking into the distance. He didn't think about anything, but his beautiful eyes were emotionless.
When the car arrived at the gate of the villa, the conspicuous car plate number made Zion slightly flash, but he didn't do anything. On the contrary, Sissaye ran out when she heard the sound of the car. When she saw that it was Carlson, she couldn't help but be surprised.
"Dad? Why are you here?"
Looking at his daughter wearing an apron at this time, Carlson's eyes were a little distressed.
"You got up so early to cook for that brat? You don't even be so filial to me as your father."
"Dad..."
Sissaye's face was a little flushed. She subconsciously glanced at Sissaye's room and saw Zion standing by the window. She could not help but be shocked. Carlson had clearly seen it as well.
His eyes narrowed slightly. He waved his hand and let Sissaye leave first. He did not allow her to get close to him. He got up alone and went upstairs to Zion's room.
Zion looked at Carlson and went back to his room. He opened the door and welcomed him in.
Carlson glanced at Zion and motioned for him to close the door. Then, he walked into the room and sat down casually.
Although it was said to be casual, the momentum of the superiors these years could not be restrained.
Looking at Zion's calm demeanor, he couldn't help but sigh and say, "Sit."
"I just got up and feel a little uncomfortable. I'll stand up for a while."
Zion's words stunned Carlson, but he didn't force him. He just whispered, "I heard that you've confirmed your relationship with Evangeline?" "This is my personal matter, Uncle Mo."
Zion's 'Uncle Mo' made Carlson feel a little uncomfortable.
"You're here to exchange me for a favor for that girl? I remember that you didn't call me Uncle Mo since you were fourteen."
Carlson's eyes were a little complicated.
He had watched this child grow up on his own. It was more accurate to say that the child was raised by him as a son rather than a subordinate.
Over the years, Zion had spent more time with him than Zion's parents. He had become more and more intimate after he gave birth to his youngest son.
He always thought that Zion knew his intention, but now he chose Evangeline, which made Carlson feel a little uncomfortable and unwilling.
"What's wrong with Sissaye?"
"She's good in everything, but I just regard her as my sister."
Zion was such a person. Before he confirmed a relationship with her, he didn't say anything. If he established a relationship with her, he couldn't have any misunderstandings. He couldn't have an affair with her This was the least respect for him and his girlfriend.
Seeing that he was so determined, Carlson couldn't help but ask, "Is there no other possibility? Maybe we can take a turn..." "Uncle Mo, what are you looking for me for today?"
Zion didn't think that Carlson was an idle person who would come to him for such a trivial matter.
Seeing that Zion had changed the topic, Carlson was a little dissatisfied. However, after all, he was the one who watched him grow up. He said gloomily, "You don't even allow me to speak now? Are you your uncle or me?"
Hearing this, Zion knew that he had angered Carlson and couldn't help laughing.
"You are my uncle. If I dare to let you call me uncle, my father will beat me to death." Zion's teasing made Carlson a bit angry.
"The relationship between you and Evangeline can't be settled for the time being." "Why not?"
Zion was a little depressed.
In the past, when he didn't like Evangeline that much, everyone whispered in his ear that a boy couldn't be ruthless to a girl. Why did he treat Evangeline so well now that they just came to disagree? Looking at Zion's stubborn face, Carlson couldn't help but think of Nathaniel and Mango. The sons of these two people were also stubborn.
"Get me a glass of water. Don't you see that I've been sitting here for a long time? You don't have any eyesight at all."
"I didn't invite you here. Besides, this is my bedroom, not the living room. Where can I get you some water?"
Zion was not angry with Carlson. He was still in the mood to bicker with him, which made Carlson lose his temper.
"How could a girl love you like you? I'm confused. There's more than one. Is these woman blind?"
"I guess so."
Zion saw that Carlson didn't even want to talk about his intention. He felt a little tired standing there, so he sat down opposite Carlson and asked in a low voice, "Did we find something from the kidnapper?"
"No."
Carlson shook his head and looked at Zion for a while before saying, "Why didn't you tell me that there was something wrong with the gun? Why didn't you report it to me? What are you suspecting? Or don't you even trust your brothers who have gone through thick and thin with you for so many years?"
Zion frowned slightly.
He knew that Carlson would know about the gun sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to be so early. Now that he heard Carlson's question, Zion didn't have much of a reaction. He said lightly, "It's not a matter of trust or not. I'm just curious. My gun has always been under strict supervision. Except for me, no one can touch it. How could someone do something to my gun? It's obvious that the person is capable of doing something to me under strict control. So I just want to see if I can lure the snake out of its hole."
"Then have you ever suspected anyone? Or have you found any clues?"
"No."
Faced with Carlson's question, Zion looked calm. However, Carlson was so angry that he grabbed the pillow beside him and threw it at him.
"How can you still be in the mood to talk about love without any clues?"
"It's been so many years, and I haven't had much time off. Uncle Mo, I'm not a robot. What's wrong with taking a rest at this time? Besides, why can't I court? I'm not a dead person."
Zion grabbed the pillow in his hand and said with a smile. He didn't look cold at all.
Carlson felt his heart was blocked.
His good son-in-law had been taken away by someone for no reason, and now he could still talk to him with a cheeky smile. He really didn't know
whether he was bold or confident.
"What are you laughing at? Do you look like your teeth are white?"
"Whiter than Uncle Mo's teeth. Look at you who always smoking. Your teeth are turning yellow. Be careful, Auntie Su doesn't like you anymore."
Hearing Zion made fun of him, Carlson was so angry that he wanted to kick him. However, when he thought of the influence of this matter, he finally sighed and asked, "Tell me, why did Evangeline appear at the kidnapping scene? And why did you erase her traces? Do you know something?"
