The CEO's Wife Is Super Charming

Chapter 130: Chapter 129: Visiting

"Did you go to find George Lyle? Did you find out anything?" Elliana Lyle’s emotions were evidently a bit agitated.

Luna shook her head, not wanting to speak about things she wasn’t sure of, and replied, "I'll tell you once | have

everything sorted out."

To prevent Elliana from asking further, she quickly changed the topic and said, "By the way, when is your sister

coming? I'll accompany her to the detention center."

"Tomorrow morning, I'll go to the airport to pick up Sister Phoebe, and then let her rest for the morning. You can

cin the afternoon."

“Alright.”

The next day.

Ding ding ding ding...

Norman Bennett was awakened by an alarm set by Elliana, and when he went to turn it off, he discovered it was

only 4 AM, yet the person who set the alarm was still sound asleep.

"Hey, wake up, your alarm is ringing."

Elliana was not moved at all by the man’s gentle and hoarse voice at the moment, slightly shifting her head to a

comfortable position and continuing to sleep.

The man was quite helpless about this, afraid that the little girl might have something important to do, only to

regret it when she woke up later.

So, he simply pulled her up and sat her down, then gently rubbed her cheeks.

Elliana: ".."

She was awake, but a bit dazed, not knowing what had happened.

"Hey, your 4 AM alarm went off."

"Oh."

Both were silent for a moment, and Elliana suddenly exclaimed, "Norman, when did you cback?"

Wasn't he supposed to tell her to sleep first and not wait for him? She thought he wasn’t coming back.

The man said, "3 AM."

"Then what tis it now?"

"4:03 AM."

Doesn’t that mean he only slept for an hour? Moreover, the man had been going to the company at 6 AM these

days, coming and going, not getting any proper sleep.

Elliana couldn't understand this and asked, "Then why don’t you just sleep at the company? It's more

convenient."

"Because you're here." The man said, gently tapping her nose, speaking warmly, "No matter how late, I will

always cback, unless there's absolutely no time."

She was somewhat moved, feeling an urge to cry, "Norman... you're so good, but you really don’t have to do this

next time, | will behave and sleep alone."

The man did not agree, just touched her hair and said, "It's 4 AM, do you have something to do? Hmm?"

This...

What could be at 4 AM, she really couldn't recall anything at the moment!

Suddenly! She slapped her forehead, "I have to pick up Sister Phoebe today!"

Saying so, she hurriedly dressed.

The man intended to send her, but she insisted he sleep a little more, so it was Lana who drove her.

In the car, sitting in the front passenger seat, Elliana yawned and said to Lana, who was driving, "Lana, you don’t

have to work when you get back, get sproper rest."

Lana didn’t feel sleepy anyway; she actually gets up at this tevery day, only in autumn and winter it's 6 AM,

and once spring arrives, she starts getting up at 4:30 AM.

It was set by her mother in the Bennett Family's old mansion, saying that only with enough diligence will the

family continue to employ you.

From the Bennett Family’s old mansion to here, although Norman never set any rules, and often gave them

holidays, she never dared to slack off, maintaining her own standards.

"Madam, I'm not sleepy."

Already knowing Lana would say that, Elliana gently scolded, "No rebutting my decision!"

— South City Airport.

Fortunately, she was not late, almost just in time. As Lana pushed her a little distance, she saw Phoebe Lyle

walking toward her.

"Sister Phoebe."

"Hmm." Phoebe Lyle was still wearing a khaki thin trench coat, with pearl hair clips fixing her hair in a lazy yet

laid-back style.

Seeing Elliana in a wheelchair, Phoebe was a bit surprised, then concerned, frowning beautifully, mildly angry,

"How did you do this?"

To her, this younger sister was timid yet playful; it must have been because she was playing carelessly and got

hurt.

"I got hurt accidentally, nothing serious, it’s almost healed." Elliana smiled, casually brushing off the concern.

Phoebe didn’t say anything more, instead, she reached out and ruffled her hair.

It could be due to the dim lighting, she felt that Sister Phoebe’s expression seemed a bit warm, especially when

touching her head, Sister Phoebe seemed to smile at her pettily.

"Alright, it’s cold outside, let's go back quickly."

"Okay."

After returning to the villa.

She explained the general situation to Phoebe, and after they had breakfast together, they each went to rest.

By noon, Elliana showed no sign of waking up; when she finally did, Lana told her Luna and Phoebe had just gone

out,

— Central Ring Road.

"Take this earbud, in case you don’t know what to ask then."

Phoebe took the mini earbud handed over by Luna, small and exquisite, almost invisible when placed in the ear

and covered by hair.

Along the way, the two barely spoke, Luna remained in her mysterious and aloof state, almost identical to when

she first met Elliana.

— South City Detention Center.

Because the court had not yet issued a judicial decision, John Shaw was temporarily detained.

Galen Collins was already waiting at the entrance, and upon seeing the two, his expression didn’t change much.

After a polite greeting, he led them inside.

Since Luna had no connection with the person involved, she could only wait outside, as she had anticipated,

hence showed no complaint.

Phoebe merely followed Galen inside. Because she was assisting Galen in solving the case, she didn’t need the

outside procedure and could directly follow him in.

Upon reaching the destination, a large glass panel cinto view, with a phone available for their conversation.

She tried her best to appear calm and composed, but when the man wearing yellow cin, she was still

moved.

Her eyes and nose burned with an unbearable ache, even her lower eyelids turned red, for this man had been

the one she once wanted to spend her life with.

John Shaw's figure had becmuch thinner, as detention centers allowed absolutely no freedom, coupled with

eating or drinking little, he had already becgaunt.

His eyes were very dull, so dull that there was no visible hope.

He didn’t know who was coming to see him, maybe his mother, perhaps an unrecognizable girl.

When he saw that familiar person outside the glass, all his blood boiled in that instant, his eyes seemed to be

filled with brilliant light!

In his excitement, he wanted to break free from the escort personnel, so thrilled that he opened his mouth but

couldn't make a sound.

This person, who he thought of day and night, was vividly before him, like an absurd yet nostalgic dream.

"Phoebe... Phoebe..."

Outside the glass, Phoebe could only see John’s mouth moving, as if calling her, but since neither she nor John

was seated at the phone yet, this call, she couldn't hear it, but it echoed in her mind.

until John sat by the phone, she remained standing there.

The man behind the glass cried with tears streaming down, holding the phone, lips trembling while speaking, his

gaze never leaving her, seemingly pleading for something from her.

She feared hearing John's voice calling her again, afraid she couldn't control her emotions any longer, gently

exhaling to calm down as much as possible.

Softly smoothing her hair, she slowly sat down, a slender yet slightly thin hand grasped the phone, hesitated for

a few seconds before picking up.
