Deep Affection: Honey, Come Back To Me

Chapter 264 Stay Up All Night

Standing from a distance, Amy and Lena weren't able to even take a peek at the document.

But judging from John's reaction, they guessed that his wife might actually be someone of great importance.

Why else would John wear such a stunned and frightened expression?

It was also the first time they had seen him fall on his butt, and all the way to the floor no less. In a way, it was kind of funny.

The two women exchanged subtle glances and bit their lips to keep from laughing.

They could never laugh at their employer, of course. They would never dare.

Meanwhile, John was struggling to catch his breath. When he first heard the Lu family wouldn't admit that he was Nina's husband, he wanted to laugh.

No one had ever dared to humiliate him.

Now, it turned out that the Lu family was not just some big shot in Spring City, but the actual royal family of C Island.

Swan feather...

It finally dawned on him why he could never find any useful information on the swan feather. Its significance was something that lay within the bosom of C Island's royal family.

And his little girl was the princess of C Island. This fact effectively wiped out any lingering doubts and misunderstandings from before.

It took less than half a minute for John to fully embrace the idea.

He slowly picked himself up from the cold floor and plopped into his chair. Then he calmly tidied the documents he was clutching.

When he was satisfied, he place them in one of his desk drawers with the intent to read them carefully and pore over the details when he had the time.

His t

ying with him here temporarily. Please do not make any more disturbances, or she will be going away with him tomorrow."

John narrowed his eyes at the man who stood just outside his car. "Was it my wife who said that, or her brother?"

He was certain his little girl would never say such a thing.

To his credit, Wynn maintained an air of neutrality. He wasn't aggressive, but he didn't humble himself either. "Mr. Lu can represent his sister."

"No."

No one could decide for Nina except for herself.

John's face became unreadable. None of the others could tell if he was angry or something else. He stubbed out the cigarette he was smoking and blew out his last huff.

After a short moment of consideration, he decided to retreat for the sake of advancing. "My wife said she won't be coming home tonight. That's fine then. I will come and get her tomorrow at the crack of dawn."

Then he nodded to his men. Henry hurriedly went back inside the car and Richard drove them away without another word.

Wynn was left standing in the driveway, perplexed as he watched the car disappear.

What he didn't know was that the black Maybach didn't go far. It went out into the main street before making a sharp turn at the first alley. From this spot, they had a perfect view of the hotel gate.

Henry was confused. "Mr. Shi, what are we doing, exactly?"

"Staying put until dawn." John lit another cigarette.

He would stay here and stand guard tonight. He wouldn't allow Leon to take his wife away.

Even if the prince did just that, John would definitely get Nina back.
