《Mister Grumpy Hockey Star Is My Secret Boyfriend 》全部章節：第 141 章 - 第 150 章

142. LUTHER I throw up the content of my stomach into the toilet bowl, and it feels like I'm getting strangled. It's the worst because I haven't eaten well, so really, there isn't much to throw up. Afterwards, I flush the toilet and crawl my way into the hallway, with my back pressed against the wall. My mum is missing. I have looked at every corner of the house, but she is not here. My car is parked outside, her phone is on the sofa, and her keys are by the drawer in the living room. I'm not saying my mother has got up and left Densberry without me, because it's not possible. Not when she is alive and breathing. It looks like she disappeared in the middle of packing, too. Where would she have gone too? It's five o'clock in the morning, and even though it's an emergency for me, I can't go to the neighbor's house to ask if they've seen my mother. However, on the back of my tongue, I can taste the sourness in the situation. It's too odd and full of holes for me to understand it

144. JANAE I push my trolley down the aisle in the superstore, throwing in a few things inside. I just came in here to grab a few boxes, because in the middle of boxing, I realized that I didn't have enough. I'm almost done with packing, since we don't have a lot of stuff that are sentimental to us, but Luther and my rooms are next. I tear off the wrap from a bar of chocolate as I munch on it, pushing the trolley forward with my leg. I see this giant bowl of ice cream through the see-through glass door of the refrigerator, and it makes me smile. Luther has been going through a lot since we have only a few hours left in Densberry, so maybe this is going to be something to cheer him up. I take the ice cream, a couple more goodies, and I'm all set to pay at the front. It's a fairly long line, so I just put my air pods in place and try to wait it out without going into a brief depression myself. I day dream about the next town we are going to, and how Luther is going to get the s

146. JANAE "Good morning, Mrs Cooper," a cup of coffee so strong that the smell hits my nose as they set it on the table. I sit up, rubbing my eyes as I look from my left to my right. I didn't sleep a wink, so that means that I look and feel like shit. "My son..." My charred lips move. "Like I said, an officer will visit him this morning. We have a lot to do, Mrs Cooper, so let's get into it." They are not as friendly as they were yesterday, but that's not even the most bothersome part of this entire thing. I finally sit down, and raise the coffee to my lips. They are both seated facing towards me, flipping through the huge files in front of me. "So, Mrs Cooper, we will start by reading your rights..." He goes on reciting the vomit-inducing statement, before flipping through some pages again. "Okay, so, can we go at this head first? You can start by telling us about the secret accounts you stashed the money away in." My hands spread on the table, palms facing up. "What fucki

148. LUTHER I sit in the confinement for another six hours, too angry to even drink the water that they brought to me. This was a meticulous plan, because they know that I don't have the money to leave this place. How long do they intend to keep me here? I don't have fifty thousand dollars lying around, and I need to get out here to help mum..."Hey," I stand up, clutching the metal rods. "I want to make my phone call now!" The Officer, who has been patiently waiting around me, walks to me with a wicked smirk on his face. "Is that so? Have you suddenly gotten the money to pay for the bail?" "It's my right to make a phone call," I tell him. "It's not your business if I have gotten the money or not." ****I don't have a long list of emergency contacts to phone whenever I get into trouble, in fact I know I have to be at the edge of death before I call Marlon to help me, but I decided to call someone else. Maybelline. It's quite an inconvenience to call her with my problems, but

150. LUTHER I know he is angry, and it's all because of the marriage proposal thing that he said earlier. We never got to actually talk about it, because my life started to move downhill right afterwards, and I kind of went AWOL on me. He is ranting, exchanging hot words with his sister and best friend, while my heart gets heavier and heavier. It's all my fault. I was avoiding him, and now he is all hurt because of it. "Hey, Marlon, you need to calm down," I finally chime in, in a small voice, but immediately recoil when he glares at me. "Hey you, no one asked you! You better stand there and shut the fuck up!" He yells at me, making me blink in shock. He has never spoken to me like this. "Hey, don't talk to him like that!" Maybelline stands between us. "What the fuck is wrong with you?" William puts his hand on Marlon's shoulders, telling him to chill, but Marlon shrugs him off violently. "What's this about? When will someone start talking?!" He yells. "Did you tell them, Lut
