Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 216

When he saw the report, Joel held his breath. He finally knew the reason. The person who had controlled the Smiths for many years now lowered his head like a child who had done something wrong. He anxiously explained, "Uncle, I..."

"Smack!"

Ian threw the report on the ground as if he was venting his anger. Then, he closed his eyes tightly as his chest heaved rapidly.

Seeing him like this, Joel was extremely nervous. He took a step forward again. "Uncle, I didn't let you see it because I was afraid you would be angry. Please calm down..."

Ian took a few deep breaths before suppressing the anger in his chest. His fingers trembled slightly. "You shouldn't have hidden it from me."

Joel sighed. "I was afraid your body couldn't take it."

Ian closed his eyes. "That's not why you hid it from me."

Joel lowered his head respectfully and did not say anything else.

After a moment, Ian waved him away. Joel looked at him and turned to leave the ward.

He went out the door. At this moment, Quentin stepped forward and asked, "How is Third Uncle?"

Joel frowned at him.

Quentin immediately waved his hand and said, "Don't look at me like that. Third Uncle wanted me to report it to him, I couldn't possibly defy him."

The entire Smith family was able to reach this stage because of Ian.

Ian's status in the family could be seen from Joel's attitude. Although he had already retired from power many years ago, no one in the Smith family dared to disrespect him as everyone knew Ian's methods back then.

Joel took a deep breath. "He's alright."

Quentin was relieved to see that he was not being held responsible.

After a while, he suddenly asked, "What should we do now? That Nora... should we bring her home?"

Joel frowned and looked at him unhappily. "We'll wait for Third Uncle to decide, what we need to do now is find Anti!"

"...Yes."

Nora brought Cherry home. After entering, she went upstairs to wash up and prepare to sleep. Cherry quietly climbed onto her bed and looked at her with a pair of dark eyes filled with resentment.

Nora yawned and asked, "If you have something to say, say it."

Cherry sighed and held her chin with both hands. "Mommy, did you forget something?"

Nora raised her eyebrows. "What?"

Cherry sighed again like a villain. "Did you help me look

for my Sponsor Grandpa?"

Nora,"??"

She seemed to have really forgotten about this.

Initially, she thought that it was just a game between children and would be over in two days. She did not expect her to be so persistent. Nora stretched lazily and said, "I'm tired today. I'll help you find him tomorrow."

Cherry, "..."

She climbed out of bed silently and walked to the study room. She took out her phone and called Solo, who was overseas. "Hello, Uncle Solo!"

"Cherry, what's wrong?" Solo was clearly still sleepy.

Cherry asked, "Can you do me a favor?"

Solo asked subconsciously, "Where's your mom? Why are you looking for me?"

"She's sleeping."

"... Okay, I understand."

After telling Solo her request, Cherry did a live-stream for a while. The second-best, Sponsor Daddy, came to her live-stream as always and gave her some money. He even asked her what she had eaten for dinner.

Cherry replied, "I ate soup dumplings. Aunt's cooking is too delicious!"

JH: "Yes. Has your mom eaten?"

Cherry replied, "No, she's sleeping."
