Chapter 185 Layout

When Faye saw Hank, who followed Cindy, she beckoned Carlotta back to her room.

Carlotta was stunned for a second, then stood up and left.

Faye watched Carlotta get into her room, then she stood up and walked to the living room.

"Hank." Faye smiled distantly. After she greeted Hank, she looked at Cindy and said, "Cindy, a cup of tea please."

Cindy was unacquainted with Hank, but she didn't defiant to neglect him as his outline was similar to Colin's. "Yes, madam."

Cindy went to pour the tea, and Faye said lightly, "Hank, have a seat please."

Hank frowned and nodded. His stable and calm face was full of anxiety now. "Faye, when will Colin be back?"

Faye turned her head sideways and looked at the clock on the wall, "He should be here soon."

Faye didn't ask Hank about his intentions with Colin. She reached out and pushed the fruit dish on the tea table, "Hank, help yourself to the fruit."

Hank's elbows were on his knees. He looked down at the floor and said, "No, thanks."

As soon as his voice faded, the phone in his pocket rang.

Hank sat straight, took out his phone, and answered it. He frowned and said seriously, "Mum, I've already arrived at Colin's home, but he hasn't come back yet. Don't worry! Helen is also Colin's sister. I believe he won't do any offensive behavior."

After Hank finished his words, the other side replied with some words, then Hank hung up the phone gravely.

After the phone hung up, Hank looked up at Faye.

He thought Faye would ask him some questions, but Faye was leisurely peeling the orange, just seemed like she didn't hear his conversation.

The corner of Hank's mouth twitched slightly. While he was about to start a conversation, Cindy came with a cup of tea, which interrupted his words. "This is cinnamon tea. I wonder if you get used to drinking it?"

"Thank you," Hank said.

The conversation was interrupted by Cindy, and Hank found it difficult to continue. He was worried that it was too abrupt to continue the conversation, which might raise Faye's doubts.

The two of them just sat in the living room for more than ten minutes. And, Hank had almost finished the cup of tea. Suddenly, a "Ding" sound came out, and the door opened from the outside.

Faye turned her head back when she heard the sound, and her gaze collided with Colin's, who was stepping into the door.

It was rare to see Colin dressed in a suit. When he saw Faye was looking at him, he raised his eyebrows lightly with a smile.

Faye got up from the sofa and walked to the hallway in a few steps. "What took you so long?"

Colin held her waist in one arm, pulled her closer, then said in a deep voice, "The traffic is heavy."

Faye against Colin's suit jacket with her fingertip, she looked up at him and whispered, "Hank is here." Colin's hand on Faye's waist kept moving, "I see."

"It seems that there is something wrong with Helen," Faye said.

Colin chuckled, "Are you happy?"

"Did you do it?" Faye said.

Colin didn't answer but with a bantering expression.

They talked for a while in the hallway as if there were no one waiting for them. Colin was holding Faye's waist and went back to the living room.

They went to the sofa and sat down. Colin took off his jacket and tie, then loosened the collar. He banteringly looked at Hank and said, "Why did you come to me today?" "Colin, I want to talk to you alone," Hank said.

Hank wanted to get right to the point, but Colin didn't want to meet his expectations. Colin said mockingly, "You are always gentle and cultivated, but why are you so serious today? I am really not used to it." When Hank realized that Colin didn't want to have a private chat with him, his jaw tightened and he was trying his best to control his emotions. "Colin, do you know we lost contact with Helen?" When Colin heard his words, he raised his eyebrows and pretended to be astonished, "Wasn't she sent back to her hometown by York?"

Hank asked, "You really don't know about it?"

Colin teased and said unconcernedly, "What should I know?"

Hank knew that Colin was not telling the truth, but he couldn't expose him. He calmed down and put down the teacup, "If we still can't contact Helen, then I have to inform grandfather." Colin snickered and leaned into the sofa, "Hank, are you threatening me?"

Hank stared at him, "I know you always have a problem with me. Make it only between us, not to others."

Colin suddenly laughed.

Hank thought that Colin would dispute over trifles, but he didn't. He looked at him mockingly and said significantly, "Don't worry, you're the next."

As soon as Colin stopped, Hank suddenly turned hostile. "Did you admit that you did it?"

Colin chuckled, "What did I admit?"

Hank pressed intensely, but Colin kept denying it.

The atmosphere was tense, and their conversation had reached a deadlock.

Faye was sitting beside them and watching their interaction. People always thought that in the Farrells Family, the father was affectionate, the sons were dutiful and they always showed their love and respect to each other. However, these were all appearances.

The truth was that they were at daggers with each other, and they always had to consolidate at every step.

When Hank was goaded beyond endurance, the phone in his pocket rang again.

Hank took a deep breath, took out his phone, and answered.

Before he said a word, Old Mr. Farrell's sullen voice came out of the phone. "Where are you now?"

"Colin's home," Hank answered.

"Come back home at once!" Old Mr. Farrell said.

"Grandpa, but..." Hank said.

The Old Mr. Farrell said in a rage, "Don't let me repeat again."

The phone was hung up. After Hank was stunned for a few seconds, he stood up and said goodbye to Colin.

Colin stared at him with a jeer, "Hank, use your noodle before you do anything in the future. Everything needs evidence. It is too abrupt that you come to denounce me without evidence. It really draws blood." Hank, "......"

As soon as Hank left, the phone in Colin's hand vibrated.

Colin looked down and glanced at it. It was a message from York.

"Colin, everything is done."
