Chapter 69 go home

Bang! The door was pushed open before the two men came back to their senses from the great shock.
In surprise, Darren looked at Austin and his mother and brother who were standing in front of him with
a flushed face.

It seemed that they had a quarrel. Although Austin's facial expression didn't change, he breathed
heavily. It seemed that he had talked a lot before he calmed down.

Besides, his mother looked ruthless, as if she had lost money in playing mahjong.

"Austin, why are you here? Didn't you say that you have some personal affairs so you asked for leave
from me tonight? Is this your personal affairs? "

Darren was confused. His friends never lied to him.

He walked over and picked up a thick pile of information about Joan, but there seemed to be no bad
news that could not be released. It was all about her efforts and achievements over the years.

"I'm sorry, Darren. I don't want you to know it. Mrs. Lu asked me to help her find all the information
about Miss Gu. She also warned me not to tell you. So I came here without informing you."

These documents were very good. Darren patted him on the shoulder and thought that Austin
deserved to be his capable assistant and knew how to deal with such things.

It seemed that he had just been spite a lot. Anna said first, "You are really my good son. You have
found Joan who we cannot judge. You found a subordinate we cannot judge as well?"

The more she said, the more excited she was. She didn't see her son's increasingly cold expression.
"There are so many people coming out of the prison around you. Do you want to deliberately disgrace
the Lu family, or do you dislike me living too long, and want to piss me off?"



"Lowering myself?" Looking down at his mother, he said, "No wonder when my father was alive, he
couldn't tell you anything about business. You are so superficial. Can't you see any good thing of
human nature except money and status?"

The whole apartment was filled with anger. Upstairs, Grandpa took a look at the situation downstairs.
He just stood there quietly with a stick. He would like to see how capable his grandson was to deal with
such a scene.

Joan looked at her watch. It was late. Darren had told her that he wanted to go home, but he hadn't
come back yet.

Was it because his family made things difficult for him and they didn't like her? She grabbed the clothes
and was ready to go out, but it startled Selina who had been busy in the kitchen.

Joan was like a living Buddhist now, and Selina was responsible for taking care of her. As soon as she
saw Joan was about to rush out of the house, she was almost scared to death by a small threshold.

"Miss Gu, it's so late. Where are you going? Mr. Lu has exhorted you repeatedly that you can't go out
at this time."

Pregnant women would do this. Their dependence on men was on the peak. When she did not see him
for a moment, she felt as if it had been a long time.

When she moved out this afternoon, he was holding her in his arms and telling his story. Why did it
seem that they hadn't seen each other for such a long time.

"But I feel that he has been out for a long time. Will he be embarrassed at home? Will he change
anything?" Selina helped her stand stably, and she didn't even wipe her hands.



Perhaps it was the common case for pregnant women. She coaxed her to get well prepared and
immediately got through to Darren Lu.

"Mr. Lu, Miss Gu is worried about you. She wants to see you."

"No, you can't let her out at this hour!" said Darren, worried

Hearing a harsh voice, Joan who hadn't talked on the phone, heard it and stuck out her tongue and
shrank her neck. If she had known it would happen like this, she would call him in person.

Selina almost threw her phone out and quickly ended this phone call that she had already known about
the result

"Mr. Zhang, have you met Darren's ex-girlfriend? Lola Qi? "

"Why do you ask me this question all of a sudden? I saw her before, but I don't know much about her. "
She told her everything.

In fact, Joan was just curious. Ever since she saw the video and pictures that Scott brought to her the
other day, she felt that the girl must love Darren very much. How could she be so obsessed with reality
and leave after receiving money?

If it were her, she would choose to be with him no matter what happened between them.

The worst would be the wedding without any attention, or the house of the Lu family which would never
belong to her. Love was priceless and could not be hindered.

"All I know is that when I was with the old boss, Darren often took care of Miss Qi. At that time, Darren
was too young and impulsive, so did not hide his strength or know a lot of ways to deal with things." As
she recalled the past, both Joan and Selina were suspicious.



He didn't know the real reason why she left. She felt that it was not only because of her family.

"Anyway, it's all over now." Joan started to eat the yogurt. She seemed to think of something, and
asked, "And, I've never heard of Mr. Lu's birthday. Why? Is it because no one has celebrated it to him?
"

Birthday? She had been with Darren for several years and seldom heard him mention the word
"Birthday". He didn't have any interest in celebrating birthday. Darren was a grudge holder and his
mother seldom remembered his birthday. Because his birthday was too close to Nick's, she always
ignored his birthday.

Since he was not remembered, Joan was right. he hadn't invited anyone to celebrate his birthday.

"Selina, can you do me a favor?" She said mysteriously.

"Only if you don't want me to help you out. If I help you with this, you will not see me tomorrow." She
made a gesture of beheading with a cute gesture towards Joan.

She came up with many plans to celebrate his birthday. Among them, the most unforgettable one was
this one.

That was, she would do everything by herself. She would cook a Western-style meal with her own
hands. This way, he would feel the surprise that his wife brought to him, just like a husband who had
just come home from work.

When she was a little kid, she had won an award for playing the violin. But after years of not playing,
she almost lost the skill.

So she whispered to Selina in her ear. In fact, there was no one in the room. She just wanted to amuse
Selina by saying, "Please buy me a violin. Don't let Darren know about it. If he knows, I may go out by



myself one day!"

Her threat worked, and Selina wouldn't say no. Besides, she knew that this woman loved her husband
very much.

"No problem. If it's not convenient for me to go out, I will ask Austin to buy them for you. But you have
to stay at home. The babysitter that Mr. Lu hired to take care of you will come tomorrow. And your work
will be handled to the assistant you personally brought out."

Bertha appreciated Joan's help and made great progress.

She thought that she had seen the right person. She smiled when thinking of this. At the beginning, she
did not have much trust in the person who was sent here by Jean. It was after Darren's investigation for
a long time that she found that she was a capable person.

She had done so many things for Mr. Lu, and had dealt with all kinds of women around him. Either Mrs.
Lu, Zoey, or even Lola, no one can compare to Joan. Although Joan had been spoiled by her family
since her childhood, she was not arrogant or reserved at all. She felt comfortable to talk with her.

In fact, except for Lola Qi who had sent him a videotape to celebrate his birthday in his university, Joan
Gu was the first and the only girl who ever devoted herself to celebrating his birthday.

Perhaps Mr. Lu's spring and happiness would come soon.

Darren's mind was full of the worries about Joan. Obviously, he didn't want to argue with Anna
anymore. What he wanted to do was to marry her and there was no need for her to say yes.

"What's wrong with the people in prison? She didn't even dare to kill fish. She is more kind-hearted
than you. She's good to be my wife. As for Austin..." They looked at each other. "The man who can do
anything to protect his beloved is a real man, much more manly than the little boy in our family."



He stared at Nick, forcing him to lower his head. Although he was not convinced by him, as long as his
brother became serious, he would say nothing.

"Mom, take the opportunity that I still call you mother, do not hurt me, do something for Lu family and
dad's good. Grandpa has already figured out that as long as a person is good, there is no mortal
constraints of her family, why are you not willing to think through?" There was no loophole in his words
that could be criticized. Instead, Anna, who was so angry just now, failed to find any word to refute, so
she stood there stiffly and embarrassedly.

It didn't take him much time to stay at home, but such a short time made him feel more tired than
dealing with his work in the company in the day. "Austin, drive me home. It's the same as before. No
one in the Lu family has the right to order you to do anything except me," said Darren.

He said these words not only to Austin, but also to his mom and brother.

After all, it was not easy for a man to live in a family like this.

He didn't give a damn about it. He was a man of mission for the Lu family and he had hopes for his
father.

"Let's go home."

This was their home, but it was not a safe home.

Austin started the car in silence. For so many years, these were the most bitter words he had heard.
