Chapter 27 Ryan Was on a Business Trip

Ryan saw this and raised his hand to hold Elena. He placed her hand on his palm. “Get in the car. The sky is getting cold. Your hand is freezing cold.”

Elena felt the warmth of Ryan’s big hands on her palm. It was as if she was hugging a stove.

“Thank you.” After saying that, Elena directly sat in Ryan’s car and went home.

When she slept at night, Elena originally thought that she could bring Ryan for a walk in the park tomorrow. She did not expect that before dawn the next day, she would be woken up by an ear-piercing bell.

Ryan sat up and picked up the phone on the bedside table. When he saw the caller ID, he could not help but frown.

“What’s wrong? Do you have something urgent?” Elena opened her sleepy eyes and looked at Ryan.

“Nothing.” After saying that, Ryan hung up the phone in his hand.

“Then why didn’t you answer the phone?” Elena was curious. Someone was calling at this time. It should be something urgent.

“It is not important to me. Go to sleep.” Maybe it was because Ryan’s tone was too gentle that Elena fell asleep again.

Ryan sat in a wheelchair and walked out of the room. He went to the study and dialed the number. His tone was very cold.

“What happened?”

It was four o’ clock in the morning. They usually would not call him at this time. Something must have happened to disturb him at this time.

“Ryan, a batch of our goods have been robbed.” The person on the other side of the phone sounded panicked. They had been dealing with this batch of goods for a long time. They did not expect that someone would dare to stop them.

“Have you investigated?” Ryan frowned. There was actually someone who dared to snatch his goods. Those people really did not want to live anymore.

When his subordinate heard Ryan’s cold tone, he could not help but shiver. “I have already investigated. It was the pirates who robbed our goods.”

“Chase them.” Ryan tone was cold, and his face was full of ruthlessness. If someone was in front of him, they would definitely be frightened by him.

“Ryan, what do you want to do with them?” His subordinate wasn’t sure what Ryan meant, so he didn’t dare to give the order directly.

“Kill them.” Ryan’s cold and threatening tone made the entire study feel as if it had fallen into an ice cellar. His subordinate could clearly feel his anger.

“Come and pick me up later.” Ryan’s tone was not friendly.

Hearing Ryan’s words, the subordinate hesitated. “Ryan, you better not participate in this mission. You and Sister-in-law have just gotten married.”

“When did I need you to make a decision for me?” Ryan stopped his subordinate’s words.

If he could not even complete his career, how could he protect Elena?

“Then we will go and pick you up immediately.” After saying that, the subordinate hung up the phone.

Ryan calmed his mood and returned to the room. Seeing Elena sleeping soundly on the bed, he gently kissed her on the cheek. “Wait for me to come back.”

Elena felt his gentleness in her sleep. She only lightly responded and fell asleep again.

When Elena woke up, the sky was already bright. She immediately struggled to get up, but found that Ryan had already disappeared from her side.

Elena scratched her fluffy hair and walked barefoot on the soft carpet. She opened the curtains and allowed the sunlight to freely shine on her body. It was very comfortable.

Elena stretched and walked into the washing room.

When she came downstairs, she found that breakfast had already been prepared at the dinning table. Elena excitedly walked down and found Mrs. Baker who was busy in the kitchen.

“Mrs. Baker, have you seen Ryan?” Elena asked quietly.

“Didn’t Second Young Master sleep in his room? I haven’t seen Second Young Master since I woke up.” Mrs. Baker also had a trace of doubt.

“No, he is not in the room.” Elena frowned. She didn’t see Ryan since she woke up this morning.

“Madam, you don’t have to worry about the young master. He probably went to work. He left so early probably because he was going to be on a business trip. This is also a common thing in these few years.”

Mrs. Baker was already used to Ryan going on business trips, so she was not worried and also persuaded Elena not to worry.

Elena nodded. She turned around and sat at the dinning table.

Elena looked at the delicious breakfast on the table and suddenly felt that it was tasteless. She had been with Ryan for half a month. Without him accompanying her to eat, she was suddenly not used to it.

Mrs. Baker looked at Elena’s dejected look and smiled as she sat opposite Elena.

“Madam, are you thinking about Second Young Master?”

“Ah? No, I’m not thinking about him.” Elena revealed an awkward smile, then her face turned red.

“You and Second Young Master just got married. It is inevitable that you miss him. I will not laugh at you guys. Madam, I have experience before. Of course, I understand your current feelings.” Mrs. Baker saw Elena’s innocent look and could not help but tease her.

“Later I will go out to buy some things. Mrs. Baker, accompany me. It is too boring to go shopping alone.” She did not have friends these few years. Mrs. Baker was the only one who was good to her when she came her, so she was also willing to chat with Mrs. Baker.

“This is not good.”

Mrs. Baker was somewhat embarrassed. She came here to be a servant and Elena not only did not dislike her but also took the initiative to help her do farm work. This way, she was already very grateful to Elena. She did not think that she would able to go shopping with Elena like a friend.

“What’s wrong with that? I don’t have any friends. I came here. You’re the only one who treats me the best. So you can go shopping with me without any problem.”

Previously, Ryan had given her a card, and she had already submitted it to the hospital. She also had a lot of pocket money, so she wanted to buy some things.

Although this house was very big, it lacked a trace of the feeling of a home. She wanted to redecorate this house before Ryan returned.
