Sophie in the Time of Secrets Chapter 63

Nathan Mu was still catching his breath after coming down from the stage. The girl Xiaowu who served him came to his ear and told him that Young Master Yong had arrived. Nathan Mu pursed his lips and before he could smile, he heard Xiaowu whisper, "He just left." Nathan Mu was still busy taking off her headgear, but after hearing this, she didn't even have the energy to remove her makeup, and just sat there in a daze.

Xiao Wu also said that Mr. Xiao Fu had sent a message saying that Mr. Zhou Er wanted to see him. Nathan Mu replied blankly: "Mr. Zhou Er?" Xiao Wu nodded: "Yes, it's not Mr. Zhou who came, but Mr. Zhou Er." Soon, Xiao Wu saw that Nathan Mu's face changed. He tightly grasped one of the hairpins, and the sharp silver ornament pierced deeply into his palm.

His appearance frightened Xiaowu, and the girl quickly stretched out her hand to pry open his palm: "Mr. Mu, your hand!" Nathan Mu relaxed immediately, staring blankly at the objects on the table, muttering to himself: "How could he...how could he do this!" Xiaowu looked at the blood that came out of Nathan Mu's hand, and quickly stuffed a handkerchief into it. The blood was smudged on the white paste, which was shocking.

It took him a while to meet Caleb Zhou. It took him some time to remove his makeup, and some time to be distracted. There was also some deliberateness in it. He really didn't want to see this Mr. Zhou Er. Although he admired the major general, he naturally didn't like this Mr. Zhou Er. But he himself didn't have the qualifications to admire the major general. He was a subordinate of Governor Yong and the person who handed over the business to the Zhou family. He knew in his heart that it was impossible for him and Ethan Yong to be together.

At first, he couldn't accept it. Why did Major General Yong have to be from the Zhou family when there were so many other people to choose from? If anyone from the Zhou family could do it, then he could do it too. But in the end, it was different. Even though he had risked everything to take a bullet for the Major General, he still didn't see any hope. But now Caleb Zhou was also going to get involved in this mess. This Young Master Zhou Er would eventually become the same person as him. How could he accept that?
