Chapter 430: Phone Call
Tang Shuo waited for a long time but didn't hear any response from Jiang Tiantong. Just when he thought Jiang Tiantong had hung up the phone, Jiang Tiantong's voice sounded faintly again.
"Be careful."
"I'm sorry." Tang Shuo said with guilt.
Jiang Tiantong was in charge of everything for this wedding. Although the number of guests invited was not large, the Jiang family's reputation would definitely be damaged tomorrow. Changing the wedding date at the last minute, no matter how one explained it, would definitely leave a bad impression.
"I can handle it." Jiang Tiantong replied and then hung up the phone.
Tang Shuo smiled bitterly, put away the phone, and no longer cared about this matter. He thought carefully about what happened to Louise.
…………
Heathrow Airport.
Pengte and Mason were standing in the arrival hall, anxiously waiting for Tang Shuo's flight.
"How long will it take?" Pent asked anxiously.
"Brother, you just asked, we'll be there in more than ten minutes." Mason said to Pent.
Peng Te nodded and began to pace back and forth in the hall a little anxiously.
In fact, he was very nervous now and could only relieve his mood by constantly asking about the time.
He knew Tang Shuo's purpose, and things went very smoothly at first, and he successfully became friends with Carl.
However, just when the time was ripe and he wanted to extract information from Carl, he acted too hastily, which aroused Carl's suspicion. Carl then sent someone to investigate his identity, which ultimately led to a complete mess of the whole thing.
Putting aside whether this incident would have any impact on Tang Shuo's plan, he had already spent about two million pounds in funding so far. Such a result made it impossible for him to explain to Tang Shuo.
After a while, the announcement of the flight's arrival came, and Mason called out, "Brother, we're here!"
Pent took a deep breath, stopped and looked towards the passage.
Tang Shuo did not come to the Sun Never Sets alone. After all, he was injured and many things still needed a reliable person to do.
Tang Shuo had assigned Jesus and Wu Lingyun to other tasks, so only the monkey with the broken arm stayed with him. After the two of them came out of the corner passage, they walked straight towards Peng Te and the others.
Since Monkey returned to China last time, he has been staying in Hong Kong due to his identity issues. Tang Shuo just happened to call him over this time.
Peng Te saw Tang Shuo coming over. He immediately stepped forward and said, "Tang..."
Before Peng Te could finish his words, Tang Shuo waved his hand to stop him and said, "Get in the car first."
You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and now is not a good time to question Pengte.
Peng Te nodded in agreement and took Tang Shuo and Monkey directly to the car outside the airport.
Mason drove. Monkey chose the passenger seat, while Tang Shuo and Peng Te got in the back seat.
"Tang, I'm sorry." After sitting down, Peng Te said in frustration: "I really didn't expect to mess things up."
"This isn't important anymore!" Tang Shuo gave Mason, who was driving, an address and asked, "Do you have any useful information?"
Peng Te shook his head and said, "He did tell me some obscure things before, but I didn't prepare any recordings at the time, and I don't think they were true."
Although he had been mentally prepared, Tang Shuo still felt a headache after listening to it.
The method Miranda had discussed with him was the most time-saving and labor-saving one. Now that this plan has failed, they can only solve the problem through other means.
"I remember now!"
Pent slapped his thigh and suddenly said, "There is a manor owned by Karl in the suburbs!"
"What else?" Tang Shuo continued to ask.
Lundun is considered an international city, and it is not uncommon for some wealthy people to purchase properties here.
"Karl has been staying overnight at the manor several nights a week during this period," Pent added.
"Get to the point!"
"I haven't heard him mention this before. But I heard something about it from some of Carl's friends." Seeing Tang Shuo's unfriendly look, Peng Te shrank his head and said, "His stepmother is currently living in this manor. I heard that their relationship is a little unusual."
Tang Shuo already knew some information about the Lawrence family. Carl's father was nearly seventy years old, while his current wife was only in her early thirties.
Such a pair of old man and young wife is bound to attract criticism. If Tang Shuo had heard about this before, he might have just laughed it off.
But from Pente's description, the relationship between the two seems to be somewhat abnormal.
Tang Shuo thought for a moment, then said to Peng Te, "Let's go over there tonight and take a look!"
…
After a while, the car stopped in front of a restaurant called Gordon Ramsay. After Tang Shuo gave a few instructions to the people in the car, he got out and walked into the restaurant alone.
After telling the waiter about his reserved table, Tang Shuo was led directly to the top floor of the restaurant.
The top floor of the restaurant seems a little empty compared to other floors, but the layout and environment of the restaurant tend to be in warm colors, which is quite ingenious.
When Tang Shuo went upstairs, Miranda was sitting by the window in the restaurant having dinner.
"I'm here!" Tang Shuo walked forward, sat opposite Miranda and said.
Miranda put down the knife in her hand, wiped her mouth and said, "Have you eaten?"
Tang Shuo wasn't in the mood to talk about dinner right now. He shook his head and said, "Can't the wedding date be changed?"
Miranda picked up the red wine at hand, shook it, and replied, "No!"
"Can I see Louise now?" Tang Shuo asked.
Seeing Louise was a plan that Tang Shuo had already thought of before he came. If it weren't for Pente's sudden suggestion, Tang Shuo would have planned to use Miranda temporarily and take Louise away directly.
Now he just hoped that the evidence provided by Pent would be useful enough to stop this incident in time before the wedding was completed tomorrow.
Miranda pondered for a moment and said, "You can't meet in person, but you can talk on the phone."
Tang Shuo had no confidence to bargain now, so he immediately nodded and agreed to Miranda's request.
Miranda immediately reached out to the bodyguard behind her, and after the other party handed her the phone, she dialed a number.
…
The news about Louise and Carl's marriage has been released, and the royal family has also announced that a grand celebration will be held on Louise's wedding day.
Louise looked at the news reports about herself with lowered eyebrows, her face full of grievance, and a very heroic Chinese man appeared in her mind.
Even though several years have passed, Louise still hasn't forgotten Tang Shuo.
When she was at the lowest point in her life, Tang Shuo appeared in front of her like a true knight. She immediately fell in love with this mysterious foreign man.
But the good times did not last long. The identities between them were like a natural barrier separating the two of them, and after Tang Shuo learned of her identity, he suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Louis looked at the two photos on the cabinet beside him, his light blue eyes already full of tears.
Ding-a-ling...
Suddenly, a cheerful cell phone ringtone rang out. Louise quickly sorted out her emotions and answered the phone, "Sister, what's going on?"
"Wait a minute!" He was bleeding.
Miranda answered, and then there was a rustling sound on the phone, followed by a familiar yet unfamiliar voice. "Louise!"
Louise felt as if she had been struck by lightning, and her mind went blank.
She had heard this voice countless times in her dreams, but when this voice rang in her ears, she felt a little at a loss.
"Louise! Are you there?"
When Tang Shuo's questioning voice sounded again, Louise came back to her senses.
She opened her mouth, wanting to respond to Tang Shuo, but no sound came out.
"Louise?" Tang Shuo on the other end of the phone became noticeably anxious and asked again.
"Um."
Louise responded, then asked aloud, "Are you okay?"
“…”
