Mr Carroll Went Crazy After Divorce

“So the IT department was doing nothing for such a long time?” Sion said to Matt with a poker face. But Matt could feel his anger.

“… The hacker is… slippery as hell.”

“Is the whole team no match for the hacker?” Sion asked sullenly.

Matt dared not to speak up another word but gave a hint to David to get him out of trouble. Matt thought he had hard luck, for he earned some added rebuke because of something not about him while he was only Sion’s assistant but not an IT guy.

“Mr Carroll,” David said seriously, “we may as well carry out a seasonal appraisal of the IT department, and I’ll ask a master of IT to make strict checks on that.”

Sion’s anger was seemingly doused by his words. After a sigh, Sion said in a cold voice, “Stay in the company, and inform me if there’s anything.” Then he turned and walked to the lift.

Matt breathed a sigh of relief. David tapped him on the shoulder and walked away to organize the work.

Sion went to Seth’s place after he got out of the company. It was time to pick up that little girl. He got out of the car and calmed himself down before he rang the doorbell.

As the door opened, Seth showed up in front of him anxiously.

“Sion, you come to me at long last.” Said Seth.

“What’s up?” Sion looked behind Seth and asked a bit worriedly.

“You know that, right? She doesn’t play with me. She hasn’t spoken a word to me or even responded to me. That made me mad and nervous the whole today.” Seth started his complaint.

He thought that there was something wrong with the girl at first, but finally, he found that she was just standoffish. Sion felt a bit down at Seth’s words and he walked into the sitting room quickly.

“Take it easy. She’s fine.” Seth said. He had only seen Sion this nervous twice, and the last time he was wrought up because of Aurora.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Sion walked past Seth and moved faster. Then he saw a little girl sitting on the sofa quietly, like a doll. At the sight of her, he felt much compassion for a little dumb girl like her who was not close to anybody. He didn’t why he had that feeling.

Morgan turned around and saw Sion, and then she jumped off the sofa and ran to him with a sweet smile.

Sion squatted down and opened his arms, subconsciously. He felt very sweet and warm the instant the girl jumped into his arms.

“Do you miss me?” asked Sion.

Morgan’s arms were wrapped tighter around Sion’s neck.

“Don’t worry. Now I’m here for you.” Said Sion, tenderly.

Seth was thunderstruck at the sight of them, and asked, “What are you doing?”

He could hardly accept the fact that he failed all the time when he spent a whole day playing with the girl and trying to make her happy. Her attitude to Sion did surprise him a lot.

Morgan buried her head in Sion’s arms, snuggling closer to Sion like a kitten. Seth was dumbfounded for a little while. Then he crouched down before Morgan, and asked, “Hey, little one! How can you deal with me differently? Am I not attractive as your sham daddy?”

Morgan gave a glance at Seth and immediately turned back to put her head on Sion’s shoulder. Sion was her daddy, not a sham.

Seth opened his arms and moved a bit closer to her, “Could you please give me a hug like this? Come on.”

Sion stood up with Morgan in his arms, and laughed at Seth, “You don’t know how to handle her. Where to go home now.”

After that, he held little Morgan and got out.

“You aren’t enough of a friend to do so,” Seth shouted resignedly.

Sion got into the car directly and put the girl into a child seat that he installed specially for her, and fastened her seat belt.

“Sit well, let’s go!”

Momo nodded, happily. Sion touched her nose with his finger, closed the door and sat in the copilot seat.

There were not many cars on the way home, and Morgan was watching the scenes out of the window. Sion received David’s phone call a few minutes later. He wore a Bluetooth headset.

“You have full power to handle the business of the company. You don’t have to ask for instruction unless there’s a matter of great importance.”

“Yes, Mr Carroll.”

“As for Queen of the Crescent Group…”

Hearing of that, Morgan pricked up her ears suddenly.

“Will mommy and daddy work together?” she thought, watching Sion’s phone in expectation.

“Draw up the plan as usual. After all, we can’t figure out what Queen will do next.” Sion said and thought about what had happened this morning. He didn’t meet Queen but knew her strange character and her demand for highway robbery already. Then he hung up the phone after a few words. He noticed that the girl was seemingly thinking.

“What are you pondering?” asked Sion.

Morgan held up her head and gave a smile at Sion. She was wondering what she could do to let her mommy and daddy work together.

Sion chuckled at the girl’s smiling face. He didn’t know who she was, but he felt a sense of intimacy with her. Maybe, they were linked by ties of fate, he thought. He wondered if the girl for him was a blessing from Heaven. He assumed he might adopt her if her identity remained unknown. An unrealistic idea came into his mind for an instant.
