Chapter 222 Praise

After Ethan finished speaking, the look in Colin's eyes instantly turned cold.

After a few seconds, he said in a low voice, "Don't let him take Andrew away."

Ethan replied, "Don't worry, he can't him away, but I don't want to have a head-on conflict with him."

After hanging up the call, Colin spun the phone in his hand, got up, and said, "Ethan wants to meet me right now. Take your time to have the meal. I'll be back soon." Then, he picked up the suit jacket from the back of the chair and draped it over his arm.

Faye said, "I'll go with you."

Hearing this, Colin was stunned, and then he smiled, "It's just a small matter. Don't worry. Enjoy the meal."

Faye ignored his words, turned to look at Rebecca, and said, "Call me when you get home."

Hearing this, Rebecca was stunned. She did not want to have the meal with Abbot alone, but she had to compromise, so she said, "Okay. Drive safe."

Faye nodded, stood up, and walked over to Colin.

Colin glanced down at her with a doting look in his eyes and said helplessly, "Can't you be obedient once?"

Because Abbot and Rebecca were present, Faye pursed her lips without retorting.

After they looked at each other for a while, Colin saw the persistence in her eyes, so he smiled and compromised, "Fine, let's go!"

After getting out of the private room, Faye asked, "Has Hank found out that Andrew is with Ethan?"

Colin replied in a deep voice, "Yeah."

Faye asked, "What are you going to do with it?"

Colin smiled, "I haven't made up my mind yet. Do you have any good suggestions?"

Faye thought for a while and asked, "Have you decided to fall out with Hank?"

Colin smiled and answered truthfully, "Not yet. I still want to play with him."

Faye nodded, "You can't confront him head-on."

Hearing her suggestion, Colin grinned, "I will listen to you."

Hearing this, Faye looked up at him and exposed his lie mercilessly, saying, "You're not listening to me. You've long decided to do it this way."

Colin said seriously, "This is a tacit understanding between husband and wife."

Then, he looked down at her and smiled, "If we have a divergence of opinion in the future, I will listen to you."

Faye looked away from his face without replying.

An hour later, they arrived at Ethan's villa.

As soon as the car stopped, a bodyguard came over to open the car door for them.

When they got out of the car, the bodyguard lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Farrell, they are inside."

Colin smiled contemptuously, "How many?"

The bodyguard replied, "Two."

Colin raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who else came except for Hank?"

The bodyguard answered, "The Farrells' housekeeper, York Blake."

Colin snorted, "Where is Andrew?"

The bodyguard said, "In the basement in the backyard."

When Colin talked to the bodyguard, Faye stood quietly beside him.

After they finished talking, Faye asked softly, "Are you going to the backyard? If so, I can help you stall Hank."

Colin lowered his eyes, reached out to entwine his fingers with hers, and said, "I didn't expect you to be able to read my mind."

Faye didn't struggle but said in a low voice, "I can buy at most one hour for you."

Colin adjusted his standing posture to face her, lowered his head to approach her ear, and said, "Don't worry. York is on our side." Faye raised her eyes and said calmly, "I've long guessed so."

Colin chuckled, "Honey, you are smart."

Faye said, "You should change your name to Praise Farrell if you like praising people so much."

Colin said, "I think Sweetheart Farrell sounds better."

She admired his calmness. No matter what happened, he could always remain composed.

A few minutes later, when Colin went to the basement in the backyard, Faye entered the villa led by a bodyguard.

In the living room, Ethan and Hank were sitting opposite each other.

Ethan was pouring coffee for Hank with a blank face.

Hank was sitting upright and was seemingly indifferent, but in fact, his palms on his knees were sweating.

Although Ethan was behaving politely, Hank knew exactly what he was like.

When Ethan pushed the coffee to Hank, the latter took it over alertly.

He didn't dare to drink, so he smiled gently, "Mr. Bond, please don't make things difficult for me. My grandfather was waiting for my report. Can you please tell me whether Andrew is here?" Ethan showed a fake smile and asked, "If I say he is not here, will you believe me?"

Hank said, "But someone saw you bring him home."

Ethan sneered, picked up his coffee, and asked, "Really? Can you tell me who saw it?"

Hearing this, Hank was lost for words.

When they were in a stalemate, the bodyguard who had led Faye in suddenly said, "Excuse me, Mr. Bond. Ms. Nash came to meet you."
