Dating Contract

CHAPTER 174: STAYING OVERNIGHT

Richie looked to the right, and Kevin came closer. So did Richie bring his ears closer "what?"

Richie's heart rumbles, because Kevin is an important person in his life, not wanting his relationship to fall apart. In addition to Kevin's cleverness managing the Northern Faction's money playback, he considers Kevin to be his own younger brother.

Chemistry is as if he has been connected for a long time with Kevin that Richie has never found in anyone else.

Kevin's attitude is very different to most people's. Kevin is cold, sweet, but in it so many wounds, or because it makes him empathize with Kevin.

Despite it all, Richie admires Kevin's responsibility on everything. Therefore, he entrusted Lala to marry him.

However, due to his sense of being too responsible, Kevin seems to care too much about Bella. Or it's just for the sake of her son and Bella.

It made Richie's chest feel burnt up until now. Because if you knew from the beginning it would be like that, Richie would take care of the woman himself.

Or is this the destiny we have to go through?

As soon as Richie felt lulled by the admiration for Kevin who was serious about pursuing all the big ambitions, always consistent in his dreams, work, including with what all Richie taught, applied to the man who was always lonely.

No one knows if Kevin always feels lonely because Kevin often complains about it.

Kevin who felt a little treated by the existence of Lala beside him at that time.

But now, it looks like Kevin will be even worse off.

Because of that loneliness, maybe we're close. It's hard to describe that, we need each other. And trust each other.

However, lately, the trust between us seems to be lost, and our relationship is falling apart.

"You locked up the niece of the late mistress Vira? don't you mean to explain to them" Kevin said flatly.

Richie turned his head again and long face to face with Kevin's deep blue netra.

Kevin, I know what a look means, which means you know something. What if you know I'm close to Lala? is our relationship getting worse?

Even up to this second I miss your hug, Kevin. H.ha.ha..

It's funny isn't it? What happened to the three of us? It's fucked.

Richie swallows saliva, his affection for Kevin is also deep.

He turned his eyeball to the left, trying to think for a moment. In his life, Lala and Kevin are equally important.

"Richie?"

Richie looked back at the documents, but his mind wasn't there. "Yes, I'll explain to them. Do you have time after this is over, Kevin?"

Kevin stared coldly at the round table. "Yes there, don't I always have time for you" said Kevin coldly as he turned to the left, looking at Richie hiding something.

I can't comment when you secretly meet my ex-wife.

Is it because of this, you asked for Lala's divorce papers to be sent to your place.

Or have you been the one helping Lala disappear without a trace? enter the deacons, who else can do this? yeah, it must be you, Richie. Didn't you always help her.

You should have been the one I suspected from the start, right?

I shouldn't have brought Lala to Europe from the beginning, I shouldn't have listened to you, and introduced you and didn't tell you about Lala.

The meeting lasted for several hours. Sanla Pictures' finance manager, delivered the report in front of the five chairmen.

The manager was used to Kevin's intimidation. Still, his fear increased by 100x, difficulty breathing and sweating coldly, it was like facing an angel of death in front of the five people.

Especially when it comes to 'The Boss' Richie, it makes him depressed, seeing the eyes of The Boss is like blocking a bullet child who shot at high speed.

While The Boss did not like it the most when someone chatted with him without eye contact. The man would naturally have his assistant shoot both eyes of the person who dared to avoid his gaze.

Grateful I followed Kevin's boss, so scared that Kevin's boss still cares and gives leeway.

Meeting, it's in the final stage. Each assistant takes care of the president's documents.

The table slowly descended to - the open floor - and from within the hole.

Some people came in with five glasses of champagne in a bucket of ice and put them on the table.

Richie opened the champagne as a form of tribute and poured it into the glass of four leaders including Kevin who had brought the glass closer.

They were all embroidered, returning to talk lightly. However, it did not go smoothly when the atmosphere started to heat up.

"Where is Mr Mike? why is he not present?" ask a 43-year-old.

Richie turned to Kevin, looking at each other thinking the same thing.

"I'm punishing him, he's attacking my base."

"Mr Mike is so presumptuous against you, he deserves punishment" said the man.

"I heard she was looking for the mastermind behind her brother's death, shouldn't this be happening in your territory, Mr Richie? is that why he attacked the base?" ask another man.

"Do you suspect me? Mr David?"asked Richie in an emphasis-filled voice.

"Until now there's no trace and it's very awkward. Isn't this in your arena, Mr Richie? Even you can't guarantee the safety of the nuclear family members?" ask David again, feeling something is hidden the chairman.

"What if everyone died of their own ignorance. Then you're that easy to throw at The Boss? so presumptuous of you, Mr. David. You've only been connected to us for five years. Look at Mr David's attitude, have you really read the whole rules?" challenge Kevin with emphasis and sharp eyes.

Richie took a sip of champagne, he held back a smile upon hearing that. Kevin still cares about his relationship.

"Why are you talking like that to me, Saint Master? I'm just reminding you of the right we have, in this region, to stay protected?"

"Oh, so you mind that, Mr David?" fuming Richie stared intently and one corner of his lips lifted up, making the other two chiefs look shaky and cold sweaty on the forehead.

"Obviously I object, it could be that in the future it happens to my family."

Richie took a deep breath repeatedly, keeping his emotions in check, "That's not going to happen, Mr. David. We protect each other, trust me. You can prove it."

It was late, Richie told Damar to come home, he entered Kevin's car and headed to Kevin's residence. On their way they were silent.

Parker just stared at the two men from the rearview mirror. Sitting in silence between them is like sitting between two bears at war.

Richie looked at the road where Lala's taxi used to go, as the woman was leaving from mainland Europe.

Arriving at Kevin's residence, it was very late at night. A waiter opens the car door for Richie.

Richie got down, and stood glued, staring at the white building that was highlighted by the yellow light. How many years he hasn't been here all night. His heart rippled, feeling a deep longing for the warmth of this house.

He slowly looked at Kevin's straight back. Arriving in the living room, Richie sees a whole family photo in a large frame, Lala and Kevin with their three daughters. Richie's heart throbbed, nothing changed from that place. There are many photos lined up, and Lala's photos are intact there.

"Sleep, it's late."

It sounds like Kevin is talking to someone and Richie is speeding up his steps into the living room where the lights are dim.

"Ivy?"

Richie looked at the girl who looked glum in front of the lighted tv, blankly indifferent to not even looking at Kevin.

What's up with them? having quarrel?

Richie widens his eyes as Kevin cradles Ivy, passing towards the elevator.

"Please sit down, sir...?" said the head waiter who saw Richie was pensive and looked widening.

Richie turned to glance at the old man beside him, "Ivy why?"

The old man with two hands resting against each other in front of his stomach, "miss Ivy, misses Lala's mistress, Sir. Do you want to drink coffee or tea? or want to take a shower? let me take you to the room?"

Richie was silent, he was going to talk to Ivy at home, but knowing Ivy's condition like this, it would be difficult.

"Master?"

"Yes, please, take me to the room."
