Chapter 369 - 367: The Lurking Danger
Mo Yichen smiled when he heard her called his name and at the same time when he finally met her.
The last time Eunji sent Kelly and Alice home, she didn\'t go out from the car. Instead she stayed there and watched the little ones approached their mothers.
She wanted to meet them but she held back herself.
But now that this happened, she\'s glad this young man.
"Hello Auntie. Hello Mama Eunji." She was surprised to hear the young man addressed her in such a manner.
"Mama?"
"Yes. Mommy said that you\'re my godmother. And she sternly reminded me to call you Mama when I finally meet you."
"Oh is it?"
"Yeah. Why? Don\'t you like it, Mama?"
"Of course! I like it. It makes me happy that I have another son and it\'s you."
"Me too, Mama. I\'m glad I finally meet you. And I\'m happy that my two brothers are happy now that you\'re alive."
Eunji smiled while listening at his little speech.
"You\'re so adorable." Then Eunji scooped him up and let him sit on his lap.
"Thank you, Mama."
Just then, the servant came back with a glass of hot chocolate.
"Thank you."
The servant gave a polite smile and then excused herself to leave.
Eunji then grabbed the cup and she was about to take a sip but then she lost her grip on the cup and it spilled on the floor.
"Oops! I\'m sorry."
"Mama! Are you hurt?" Mo Yichen looked at her with worried expression.
"No darling. How about you?"
Eunji then picked up the cup and then placed it back on the saucer and continued talking to Mo Yichen.
"I\'m sorry I stained the carpet." Eunji seemed to be genuinely upset about it.
"You\'re silly Mama. I thought you scald your hand. It\'s quite hot because it\'s smoking."
Just then, the head servant came in and hurriedly took the cup and saucer and placed them on the tray.
"Do you want me to make you another cup, Ma\'am?"
"Oh! No need. Thank you. I have already taken a sip. It\'s delicious."
"Are you here to visit Mommy, Mama?"
"Yes. Is she up already?"
"No. She\'ll usually wakes up at eight in the morning and usually she would threw up pretty bad in the toilet."
"I see. Do you know what that means?"
"Yes. I\'m going to be a big brother. I heard them talking about it the other night." Mo Yichen said it with a cute pout.
"Why do you sound sad? Don\'t you like to have a baby brother or sister?"
"I like it. But Mama will no longer carry me or read bedtime stories. They\'ll love me less than now."
"Hey, it\'s not like that. It doesn\'t mean they don\'t love you. Yes, their attention will be divided but that\'s because your brother or sister is smaller than you."
Then Eunji explained it to him further.
"The little one needs extra care and attention. Meanwhile, you can move on your own and can be trusted to do those little things. But that didn\'t mean us parents will going to ignore your needs and feelings. We love you as much as we love the little ones."
She then poked his little nose and then added, "That\'s why, be good. And your little brother or sister will love to have a caring and loving big brother, too."
Then Eunji looked up at the second floor to see Kelly still on her pajama and bathrobe wrapped around her body.
Eunji smiled at her and gave a quick nod knowing she\'s a little bit sensitive because of hormones.
Kelly slowly got down on the stairs and slowly walked towards them.
"Hey young man! Seems like you have grown to like your Mama now."
Mo Yichen looked behind him and he immediately got down from Eunji\'s lap and ran towards his mother\'s arms.
"Goodmorning Mommy!"
"Goodmorning sweetheart!"
Mo Yichen giggled after she earned a double kiss from the cheek from her mother.
Mo Jing-sheng who was also in his pajama followed his wife downstairs and Mo Yichen ran towards him and asked to be carried on his arms.
Mo Jing-sheng scooped him in his arms and carried him up.
The couple then looked at Eunji who was now standing in front of them.
"Goodmorning love birds."
"Goodmorning Eunjiyah! This is, too early for a visit, yeah?"
"I need to talk to you both."
"Sure."
The trio left the living room and walked towards Mo Jing-sheng\'s home office. While Little Mo went back to his room.
"What\'s wrong?"
"Luo Mian\'s already dead."
"Oh! Good for him. How\'s Angelina and Celine?"
"They\'re not fine. Especially Angelina who is still in shock. After all, this is the first time she killed a person."
"That must have been hard for her to get over."
"Yeah. I\'ll let them undergo therapy. But that\'s not why I am here."
"Did you find out something?" Mo Jing-sheg asked her immediately.
"Yes. Though this is all a theory but is probable to be true."
"You\'re killing us with suspense, Eunjiyah."
"Francais Monet and Frederick Heart are helping the Luo Brothers."
"You mean the French Mafia Don."
"Yes, him."
"I have a theory that he was posing as Jonathan Roland, your father." Eunji looked at Kelly when she said that.
"What? How."
"I don\'t know. But that\'s my intuition is telling me. Ever since I found out that Uncle Mike have been lying to me all this time about my birth, I no longer trust him."
"Uncledad, too?"
"Yes. I don\'t know as to how much he\'s involved in this but I don\'t know. I doubt him."
She then told them about J\'s observation.
"That could be possible." Mo Jing-sheng said.
They then looked at Kelly who now had a complicated expression.
"Kel, I\'m sorry to say this but I think your dad\'s really dead now. And I think it\'s them who killed them."
Kelly then showed an awkward smile and a little laugh as she tried to reassure them that it\'s fine.
"Hey. Don\'t worry about me, \'kay? I already accepted that he\'s been long dead ages ago. I admit, I am hoping to meet him again one day because we thought he\'s alive. I was happy. But now, it didn\'t hurt that much."
She was just disappointed to believe such a believable lie.
She was so disappointed to the situation that she cried.
"So now that you know. Just in case he\'ll call you and pose to be either Uncle Mike or blatantly pose as your late dad." Eunji gave them a reminder while reaching at Kelly\'s hand and gently squeezed it.
"I get it. But how about Uncle Mike? Is he still alive? What about if he came to us and pretended to be him?" It was Mo Jing-sheng who asked while comforting Kelly.
"I don\'t know if Uncle Mike is alive or...but just to make sure, do you both have a keyword that will help you prove his identity? Some secrets or magic word that only you both knew? You can use that to know if it\'s him or not."
"Okay. We will be mindful and careful at the same time." Mo Jing-sheng told her.
"Speaking of which, how long have you known the servants in this house?"
"They\'ve been working for us for more than two years now. Mia, the Head Servant has been with us after that incident back in our old house. Why sister-in-law?"
\'So, her name\'s Mia.\' Eunji talked to herself.
"Can you call her for me brother-in-law, please?"
"Of, course. But may I know why?" Mo Jing-sheng wanted to know why she suddenly asked for their servant.
"Hm. Since you\'re mostly out of the house, I just want to make sure that she won\'t let anyone to get inside and get close to Mo Yichen."
"Oh!"
Though he didn\'t believe that it was really her intention, Mo Jing-sheng obeyed her and using his telephone, he called for Mia to come.
Minutes later, they heard a sudden knock from the outside.
"Master! Please open the door!" Mo Jing-sheng frowned when he heard another person\'s voice.
And so he went to the door to open it. He saw a panicked servant looking at him with worry.
"Ning, what happened?"
"It\'s Auntie Mia." Somehow she managed to say what she wanted to say.
"What about her?"
"She had taken Little Master hostage inside his room."
"What?!"
Eunji and Kelly immediately stood up from the sofa and followed Mo Jing-sheng out of the room.
They made hurried steps to reach Mo Yichen\'s room immediately.
His room was locked from the inside and they couldn\'t open it since Mia took the keys with her.
"What happened?" Mo Jing-sheng asked one of the other servants who were calling out Mia\'s name when they arrived.
"It happened so fast Master. After we saw her taking you call, she hurriedly went upstairs and instead of going to your office, she directly went to Little Master\'s room."
"I saw her holding a small knife when she entered." Another witness told them.
"Oh my God! Darling, our son! Save our son!"
Eunji clenched her hand into a tight fist after at the same time she tried to calm Kelly who was crying while she hugged her.
"It\'s okay. It\'s going to be okay."
Then they saw one of his men trying to make unlock the doorknob.
And another one brought an ax and axed the door.
The door was quiet sturdy so Mo Jing-sheng grabbed the gun in one of Mo Jing-sheng\'s men.
"Move aside!" He yelled and gunshots echoed in the entire house.
The door was finally unlocked and he kicked the door with great force.
When the door finally opened, everyone saw Mo Yichen tied on the chair with Mia standing behind him.
A knife was placed a few inches from his neck.
"Dad! What\'s that loud noise? It hurts my ears."
"Yichen, are you hurt?" He immediately asked the child and made sure to have no trace of panic from his voice.
"No? Why? Auntie Mia and I are only playing." Mo Yichen innocently asked. He was even giggling.
"Look Daddy! She\'s teaching me how to escape from this tie."
Mo Yichen was really unaware that the woman behind her was plotting to harm her.
"Oh my God!" Kelly couldn\'t hold back a cry after she saw her son in that position.
"Sister-in-law, bring Kelly somewhere." He didn\'t want his wife to be stressed even more.
It\'s bad for the baby.
"Can you handle her?"
"Yes." Mo Jing-sheng didn\'t break the eye contact with his son.
"Okay. But don\'t kill her." Mo Jing-sheng remained silent because he could not promise her that.
"Daddy, what\'s going on? Why are you holding a gun pointing to Auntie?"
Though she\'s reluctant to leave, Eunji brought Kelly away from the room.
She trusted Mo Jing-sheng\'s capabilities in saving his son.
"Eunjiyah, will he be okay?"
"En! Your son will be saved. Don\'t worry."
But as a mother, she\' be worried.
Eunji and brought her back to their bedroom and got a glass of water for her.
"Drink first. I trust that brother-in-law can save Lil Mo."
But then they heard a series of gunshots coming from Mo Yichen\'s room.
And before she could stop Kelly, she saw her running back to the room.
Eunji closely followed behind her.
When they arrived by the door, Kelly screamed in fright.
"Yichen!"
Eunji could only comfort her with a hug.
