Chapter 639 Tattoo
Chapter 639 Tattoo
With Dorie being anemic, she became the real boss.
After she got discharged and went home, she was taken care of like a national treasure.
But Dorie was just worried about her shop. She looked at Su and asked, "Aren't you going back to the
shop?"
Su looked at her and didn't say anything.
"It must be busy inside the shop!" Dorie said. She had a pained expression, as if those unearned
money was more important than her life.
"I've called An-an just now, she said it wasn't busy today and I don't have to go!" Su said that to make
her restful.
"Really?" Dorie nodded. But she just felt that something was off. All of a sudden, she came to a
realization, "That's of course! With you not around, how can we have that many customers? Hurry and
go over there, you don't have to take care of me!"
Su, "…"
"I am really fine. Let me just take a sleep, eat something and I'll be fine!" Dorie said.
Su glanced at her. The man simply ignored her and started tidying the place.
Dorie sat on the couch in the living room and looked at Su, "Hey, I am talking to you. I am really fine,
hurry and go!"
"Without you, the business must be bad!"
Dorie kept talking but Su simply ignored her, doing whatever he deemed fit.
Finally, Dorie couldn't stand it anymore and she said, "Hey, I am your boss. If you aren't going, I will
deduct your salary!"
"You can fire me too!" Su said suddenly.
"I…" Dorie was stunned and she stared at Su with her eyes wide open. The man was her moneymaker,
how could she fire him?
She knew that Su knew she had nothing on him.
As Dorie thought of that, she conceded.
"Is there anything else?" Su asked.
Dorie looked at him helplessly.
"I'm hungry!" She roared in frustration. Damn it, he must have known that she couldn't fire him.
If it wasn't for his gorgeous face, she would have scolded him in anger.
When Su saw Dorie's agitated face, he smiled and said softly, "What do you want to eat?"
"Sweet and sour pork ribs, fried shrimp and eel, barbecue sauce pork, Longjing shrimp…" Dorie gave
her menu.
"Are you sure?"
"Why? Are you telling me you can't cook them?"
"Sure!" Su nodded and looked at her, "I'll go out for a while. Stay here and I'll be home soon!"
Dorie tilted her head and looked away from him.
Before Su went out, he recalled something by the doorstep and he said, "If by the time I come home
and you are not here, or you sneaked out, I'll resign!"
"You!!" When Dorie turned her head over, Su had already closed the door and left. Dorie was annoyed
and frustrated. The man was threatening her!
She was so furious that she picked up her pillow and punched on it.
Damn log, threatening me now!?
Later I'll make him cry with the menu!
However, the moment she recalled that he had transferred ten thousand dollars into his account, her
lips curled up uncontrollably.
She sat on the couch and waited for the man to come home. She was bored and she switched on the
TV and went to the fridge to take some fruits. After that, she rested her legs on the coffee desk, eating
apple while watching TV.
She had a good time.
After sometime, the doorbell rang.
Dorie was stunned, "Are you home?"
"Don't you have your own keys?" Dorie yelled. However, no one answered her from outside the door.
Dorie got up from the couch helplessly and went to open the door.
"Don't you know to bring your own keys when you go out?"
But the moment she saw the man standing outside, she was stunned.
"You are…?"
The person standing outside wasn't Su but a stranger. A man around his forties or fifties.
The moment he saw Dorie, he sized her up from head to toe. After that, he glanced inside and asked,
"Where is Siao Su?"
"He… He went out. May I know who are you?" Dorie looked at him in puzzlement. She felt that he
looked familiar but she just couldn't recall where she had seen him.
"I am his uncle!"
When Dorie heard that, she came to a sudden realization, "Oh, hi uncle. I… I am his friend. He is
currently out, do you want to wait inside?" Dorie asked smilingly. She carried herself like a polite lady.
The woman thought to herself that the uncle might misunderstand her relationship with Su.
The man stood outside and took a look at Dorie. Right before he wanted to nod, the lift door opened
with a *Ding* and Su walked out.
The moment he saw the man standing by the doorsteps, his footsteps froze.
The man and Dorie saw Su as well.
"Log, your uncle is here for you…" Dorie said. She didn't know how to handle the man in front of her.
"You're back!" Heath Xiao looked at him and asked.
"What are you doing here?" Su looked at him and asked. Dorie could tell that Su was showing an
unhappy expression. She stood there and stole a glance at this uncle…
"I couldn't call through your phone and I have no choice but to visit this place!" Heath Xiao said.
At that time, Su walked over and passed a package to Dorie. After that, he said, "Wait for me inside!"
Dorie took over the package and looked at Su, "Okay!" After that, she stole another glance at the old
man and walked inside.
"Let's talk outside!" Su said that as he looked at Heath Xiao emotionlessly, before turning away to
leave.
Heath Xiao watched as Su walked away and he followed him slowly.
When they got outside, Su glared at him, "Who allowed you to come here? What do you want?"
When Heath Xiao saw Su's furious expression, he smiled, "You know what I want! Why? Are you
scared that I come here? Are you afraid that I might do anything to her?"
When Su heard that, his eyes turned into a ferocious sharpness. He squinted his eyes and said, "If you
dare to do anything to her, do you believe that I will destroy everything you have?!"
Heath Xiao had no doubt against his words, "I believe what you said. But you should also believe in my
words. Su, heed my warning, there is no point for you to drag this on. Even if you don't sign, you
wouldn't be able to take the company!"
Su looked at him and sneered, "If that's the case, why bother asking me to sign?"
"Don't you forget, ever since your parents died, I was the one that took care of you and the company.
Aside from having your name listed in the shareholders, what have you ever contributed? You are lucky
enough that I am offering you a sum of money!" Heath Xiao said.
When Su heard that, he laughed.
Took care of him?
Took care of the company?
He laughed scornfully, "You have leveraged on my name to take over the company. Do you think I don't
know that was your objective all along?"
Now that the cats were out the bag, Heath Xiao did not deny, "No matter what, I was the one that saved
the company. Without me, the company would have bankrupted or being acquired!"
Su sneered coldly, "You have taken over authority in the company and I have never said anything
against that. I have never even interfered with what you do. But now that you are in such a hurry to kick
me out, are you just afraid that I might go back to the company some day?"
"If you were to lead the company, you will only bring it to a ruin!"
"If you keep forcing me, I don't mind to go down with you! I don't care about the company at all!"
"You!!"
"If you dare to appear in front of her again, you don't have to think about me signing your proposal
anymore!" Su said.
Heath Xiao looked at him and smirked, "Okay, I understand now. I believe there will be a day you
concede!" After saying that, he gave him a warning stare and turned around to get in his car.
Su stood there and watched as he got back into his car. After that, he breathed a sigh of relief and went
back upstairs.
The moment he went back upstairs, Dorie was walking back and forth in her living room. When she
saw Su, she walked forward hurriedly, "Where is your uncle? Is everything okay?"
When Su looked at Dorie, he frowned. Dorie was a guileless and careless woman. He was just worried
that anything might happen to her.
After pondering for a while, he said, "Do you open your door to just anyone? Even strangers?"
"Huh?" When Dorie heard Su, she was puzzled, "He, isn't he your uncle?"
"He isn't!"
"Huh???" Dorie looked at him in puzzlement. What was happening?
"Just listen to me. Remember, do not open your door to strangers anymore. And if you happen to meet
him again, make sure to get away as quickly as possible!" Su said.
Although Dorie didn't know the reason, she believed Su wholeheartedly. She nodded, "Okay…"
After that, she asked in curiosity, "Why?"
"No ‘why', just do as you're told!"
"At the very least, you should let me know the reason! I can tell that your relationship with him wasn't
good. What was his purpose looking for you?"
"Nothing!"
"There must be something, I can feel it in my bones!" Dorie said assuredly.
Su did not say anything and walked over to unpack the things he bought.
Dorie stood behind him and started telling her wild imagination, "Hmm, is it some kind of story about an
uncle that abused you in your childhood? After that he threw you in an orphanage. And now he came
back to look for you because of something you have?" Dorie looked at him and asked.
When Su heard that, he was stunned. After that, he turned around and looked at her, "How do you
know that I grew up in an orphanage?"
Dorie was stunned and she froze.
"I, I…" Dorie didn't know what to say. At that moment, Su was staring intently in her eyes. His deep
gaze was like a bottomless ocean and it made Dorie frightful.
The woman decided to speak the truth, "All right, previously when you were in jail, Annabelle asked me
to investigate you!"
After hearing that, he was stunned. The man frowned slightly but didn't say anything.
"I know it isn't good to do that. However, that was a dire situation and both me and Annabelle had no
better choices but to do that to save you!"
"I know, I wasn't angry!" Su said. The man was even thankful towards them. If it weren't for them, he
might be rotting in jail right now. He wouldn't even have the chance to stand here today.
When Dorie heard that he wasn't offended, she was relieved. After that, she felt curious again, "Since
you have an uncle and he was obviously well off, why did you grow up in the orphanage?"
"He isn't my uncle!"
"Huh?"
"He was just a friend of my dad!"
"Your dad's friend? Then what does he want from you?" Dorie asked.
When Su heard that, he threw a deep breath and turned his head to look at Dorie. After some
consideration, he said, "It's nothing. Remember what I told you just now. Don't talk to strangers and
don't open the door for them!"
When Dorie looked at his serious demeanor, she nodded agreeably.
"Okay, go to rest!"
"Okay!"
Dorie turned around to leave. As she was walking away, she recalled something all of a sudden.
Something isn't right, he still hasn't answered me!
"You still haven't answered me!"
"What?"
"Was I right just now?"
Su, "…"
When Dorie saw that he was being difficult, she pouted her lips, "Che, forget it! Now I don't even want
to know if you beg me!" After saying that, she walked back to the couch and continued to eat her apple.
As she was crunching on the apple, she continued that fantasy of hers. Yes, that must be it!
It must be!
Su was preparing for the meal and he saw that Dorie was still sitting there pondering. The man couldn't
help but smiled and shook his head.
It wasn't that he was unwilling to tell her, but he simply didn't want her to know too much and he hoped
that she could stay innocent and worriless. To smile when she was happy and to cry when she was
upset, maybe a little greedy at times.
He hoped that Dorie could continue to leave a simple life like that. He didn't want to upset her with his
being in her life.
Su was trying to protect her.
……
Due to Kaleb's medical complication, Hua was going everywhere to look for a suitable blood type. No
matter what, he wouldn't be giving up as long as there was the slightest hope.
If it weren't for Kaleb's relentless effort in not giving up on him, the man couldn't have survived and end
up in this place.
After three days of hard work, he received some result.
At that time, a man came over and handed him a deck of documents, "This is everyone I got, those in
A city with matching blood type!"
"Just so little?"
The man nodded, "It is difficult to find someone with such a special blood type. We have sixty-four in
total here and it is quite a good luck already!"
When Hua heard that, he nodded. The man knew how difficult it is to meet such a rare blood type, "Got
it. You may excuse yourself and do not let Brother Kaleb know about this!" The man nodded and went
out the room.
At that time, Hua started to study the profiles of everyone with the special blood type. Right after he
finished a few files, he was stunned.
He stared at the documents in front of him in disbelief and he even doubted if it was a second person
with the exact same name… How could there be such a coincidence in this world?
Hua was absent minded while holding the documents. At that time, Kaleb walked inside. When he saw
Hua staring into space, he asked, "What were you thinking?"
The moment Hua heard Kaleb's voice, he was stunned. The man instinctively hid the documents back
inside the file. After that, he turned his head over and greeted Kaleb, "Brother Kaleb!"
Kaleb noticed his abnormal behavior and he glanced over the file he was holding, "What is that in your
hand?"
Hua clutched on the file tightly and he didn't want to tell Kaleb.
"What is it?" Kaleb asked again, raising his voice this time. He was afraid that Hua would do some
mistakes and thread down the wrong paths for him.
When Hua saw that Kaleb was unhappy, he said, "These are all the profiles of people having the
special blood type!"
Kaleb frowned. The moment he heard that, he knew what he was trying to do. He looked at Hua and
walked towards the man, "Hua, I know that you are worried about me. But I do not wish for you to do
something wrong because of me, do you understand?"
"I understand!"
"Then stopped looking at those files and stop the investigations!"
"Brother Kaleb, I will not give up, no matter what! You were the one that told me that in the past!" Hua
looked at Kaleb and said determinedly.
"The situation is different… You know my condition and you aren't the same, you are still young!" Kaleb This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
persuaded.
"I know, but as long as we don't give up, we might have a chance. Brother Kaleb, you were the one that
taught me that!" Hua said.
When Kaleb saw how determined Hua was, he knew that he wouldn't be able to change his mind.
Kaleb said, "Okay, you can continue your investigation. But I do not wish for you to do anything, if I
were to find out…" The man didn't continue his sentence. But he knew Hua understood him.
Kaleb stared at him for a while. After that, he tapped on his shoulder and turned away to leave.
Hua stood there and looked at Kaleb's back view. The man steeled his heart.
However… The moment he thought about that file, he took out his phone and made a call, "Hello, from
the information that you gave me earlier, there was someone that called…"
……
In the restaurant.
Kaleb looked at Annabelle and asked, "Miss Xia, how was it? Is the food good?"
Annabelle nodded, "Yeah, it's great. Mr. Kaleb, this is already a top tier restaurant, how can I pick
bones?" Annabelle said smilingly and she glanced at the two persons standing in some distance.
Kaleb seemed to understand Annabelle's thoughts and he explained, "Pardon me, they were just too
worried about me and they needed to follow me twenty-four seven!"
Annabelle shook her head with a smile, "It's fine!"
She could tell that they had maintained a good distance, and she knew that it was Kaleb's special
instruction.
At that time, Annabelle looked at him and asked, "Mr. Kaleb, do you have anything to tell me?"
"Why are you asking like that?"
"If not, why are you treating me for a meal?"
When Kaleb heard that, he smiled, "Actually, I wanted to thank you for saving me. Secondly, I'm here to
bid you farewell. I do not have any friends or family here, and you are the only person I know, my life
savior!" Kaleb said.
"Farewell?"
Song Jing nodded.
"Mr. Kaleb, where are you going?"
"New Zealand!"
"Migrating?"
Kaleb smiled and shook his head, "Not really a migration, but most probably I will be spending the rest
of my life there!"
When Annabelle heard that, she nodded, "It is a beautiful place!"
Kaleb smiled, "Just an old man looking for a quiet place to spend the rest of his life!"
"Mr. Kaleb, you must be kidding. You are still young and far from being an old man!" Annabelle
laughed.
"Hahaha…" Kaleb laughed. The man didn't know why but whenever he was with Annabelle, he would
feel relaxed regardless of what they say.
"After hearing that from you, I instantaneously feel younger!"
Annabelle smiled.
When the two of them were chatting, a waiter came to serve. He accidentally spilled some syrups on
Kaleb.
"Sorry sir, I'm so sorry…" The waiter apologized nervously. Right after that, the two men that stood
guard nearby hurried forward and dragged the waiter away. After that, they stood right in front to
protect Kaleb.
"Brother Kaleb!"
The waiter was completely frightened.
He knew that he couldn't afford to offend the man in front and he kept apologizing, "Sir, I really didn't do
it on purpose! I am so sorry…"
He was completely frightened and he just didn't dare to stop apologizing.
He knew he couldn't afford a compensation and he couldn't offend the man. Otherwise, getting fired
might be an optimistic outcome. He might rouse the man's anger and get himself into trouble.
The struggling waiter was aware of the rules of the jungle.
When Annabelle watched it from the side, she felt compassionate.
Surprisingly, Kaleb spoke, "It's okay. It wasn't his fault but mine." After saying that, he took up a piece of
tissue and wiped the stain on his shirt.
When the personal guard heard Kaleb, they released the waiter.
"Thank you, sir! Thank you!" The waiter thanked the man, almost kneeling down at that.
At that time, Annabelle also stood up and brought more tissues to him, "Are you okay, Mr. Kaleb?"
Kaleb shook his head, "It's fine, I'll go to the washroom."
Annabelle nodded as Kaleb left to the washroom. She sat down and waited for him. At that time, the
waiter stood there and didn't dare to leave. Annabelle looked at him and smiled, "It's okay, don't worry
and go back to your work!"
When the waiter heard Annabelle, he was elated, "Thank you, Miss! Thank you!" After saying that, he
hurried away.
Annabelle sat there and waited for a few minutes. After that, Kaleb came back. He had removed his
jacket and he was wearing a shirt inside, rolling his sleeves up to his forearm. The man's well-built
body looked great in style. Although he was in his fifties, it was obvious that the man must be an
extremely handsome man when he was younger.
"Pardon me, Miss Xia, for letting you wait for so long!" Kaleb said courteously and went back to his
seat.
"Don't worry about it!" Annabelle said with a smile. After saying that, she glanced at his forearm. The
moment she saw the tattoo on his forearm, she was stunned.
The tattoo looked very familiar.
When Kaleb saw that Annabelle was staring intently at his tattoos, he laughed carefreely, "Does that
scare you?"
When Annabelle heard Kaleb, she smiled and shook her head, "Not that, but I simply think I have seen
it somewhere before!"
"You have seen it before?"
