Lena grabbed the page of magazine back her mother. "Yeah, it's him."
She turned back to Sammy. "Do you want to go to the hospital first? You can get a check-up and I or they can call your dad for you."
"No. I just want to see my dad, please. I don't know his number."
"Ok. What's your dad's name?" Lena asked.
"Milo Hu."
"You go sit in the car with my mom for a bit. I'll make a few calls to try to contact him."
Shen Milli took Sammy inside the car first and shared some sweet bread from this morning with her. Lena grabbed her phone and dialed Gary.
"Hey, Lena." Gary answered.
"Hey. Need a small favor from you."
"Anything for you."
Lena chuckled. "Can you give me the contact info for a Milo Hu?"
"Mhm." Gary typed a few stuff into his laptop. After a few seconds, the profile on Milo Hu popped out. "Lena... are you playing a joke on me? Such a man does not exist."
"Don't exist?" Lena pondered. What had she got herself into now? She already told Sammy that she would contact her dad for her. She sighed. "Can you get me Tyler Huang's number?"
"Lena, you already have such a good boyfriend, why are you asking for other hot men's information?"
"Gary, are you going to do it or not. And it's my personal business why I want those hot men's information. If you don't want to give it to me then I can ask my "good boyfriend" myself."
"You should." Kris's voice replied over the phone.
Lena could recognize his voice from anywhere. "You-- Why are you there?"
"Why are you asking for other hot men's information?" Kris replied.
"Hot men? Where?! I only know one hot man and he's talking on the phone with me right now."
Kris smiled. "What can your good and hot boyfriend do for you today?"
"I need Tyler Huang's number. I got into some stuff and end up with a teenage girl in my car. Her dad is involved with the man and I just want to get the girl home."
"You don't need to explain, you know." Kris pointed out.
"I know. But I want to. So, you have his number? I can call Henry instead if you don't."
"I do. I can text you his number."
"Thanks. My mom is with me today so no shady business, don't you worry. Oh, and by any chance, you know if he is still in City A?"
"He is." Kris replied. "And Lena, stop getting into trouble without me there by your side."
"But you are by my side, that is why I get into trouble. Wish I can talk longer but they are waiting for me. See you tomorrow. Muah!"
Lena sent Kris a kiss over the phone and hung up. She got into her car, which Shen Milli already started the engine and turned on the AC.
"Did you call my dad?" Sammy asked.
"No. But we can reach him from the man in the magazine." Lena smiled back to her.
Kris texted Lena Tyler Huang's cellphone and his current location at the moment. Lena was not going to even ask why Kris has the man's exact location. She called Tyler three times and he did not pick up.
As a last resort, she just drove all of them to the hotel location that Kris sent her. Lena parked the car and got out. Sammy got out with her, however, Shen Milli decided to stay behind. It was too much walking for her already.
She told them she would wait for them outside as she sat on a bench.
"Ok. We'll be quick." Lena hugged her mom and left with Sammy.
When Lena walked into the hotel, she noticed that the hotel was a business of the Li Group. Sammy and Lena went up to the elevator to the private suite of the hotel. However, only authorized personnel can enter them.
Lena quickly texted Kris for his access override code.
Kris: ^-^ Sweetie. You're in all my systems
Kris: Just scan your fingerprint <3
Lena placed her fingerprint on the scanner and it overrode the lock and the elevator went up. The elevator has a fingerprint and badge scanner option for secured floors.
Lena: o.o Thanks!
"Are you texting your boyfriend?" Sammy asked.
Lena looked at her and smiled. "Yeah."
"Is he handsome like the man in the magazine?"
"Of course. He is way much more handsome than that person by a ton though." Lena chuckled.
Lena wanted to show Sammy a picture of Kris, but she realized Kris and her have not taken many great pictures together as a couple. They should do that soon.
The elevator stopped and opened. Both of them stepped out and Lena went up to the door and knocked. There was no response. Lena was about to knock again, but the door opened.
Tyler stood there with a wide grin. "Yo! What day is it for me to have the wonderful and beautiful Lena Shen at my doors?"
"Mr. Magazine, Lena is taken but I am single." Sammy smiled.
Lena glared at Tyler but she laughed inside at Sammy's comment. "Hello, Mr. Huang. I am here for business actually. I am here for Milo Hu."
Tyler stopped his grinned and tried to see what Lena was doing.
"Mr. Huang, we are looking for my dad. I saw him with you the other day." Sammy changed Mr. magazine to Mr. Huang to follow Lena.
Tyler looked at the kid and she did look like Milo. He sighed. "Come in. I'll call him."
Lena and Sammy walked in and sat on the sofa while Tyler went somewhere else to make a call. When he came back, he brought some water with him.
"Your dad will be here in half an hour." Tyler spoke.
Half an hour... Lena's mom was still waiting for her to return. Lena looked at Sammy. "Hey Sammy, you wait here with Mr. Huang for your dad."
"You're leaving?" Sammy asked.
"My mom is still waiting for me and she is tired from today already. Don't worry. Mr. Huang is good..." Lena turned and looked at Tyler. "Friend. He will be with you until your dad comes okay?"
Sammy looked at Tyler who was handsome as a model. "Ok."
"When your dad comes, you call me ok? So I know that you are going home." Lena handed Sammy her phone card. "And if you ever need anything, call me too, okay?"
"Ok. Thanks, Older Sister Lena."
Lena stood up to leave and Tyler followed her out.
"I don't get your number?" He asked.
"You can call my office if you need me." Lena replied.
"Wow... and you're ditching a kid with me and I don't even get a thank you from you."
Lena looked at Tyler. "That's right. IF she gets to her dad safely, then I'll send you a thank you card."
"I don't want a thank you card. Call me by my name instead, after all, we are friends." Tyler smirked.
"See you later Mr. Huang. I was able to find you and enter your floor so freely, so I suggest you be a nice babysitter. Next time, I'll bring you your gravestone instead." Lena turned around and walked back to the elevator.
Tyler watched Lena until the elevator doors closed. He walked back to see Sammy drinking water and eating some snacks. She was still holding Lena's phone card tightly in her hand.
"Hey kid." Tyler called out.
"I am not a kid."
"You want a tablet? I can add your dad's number and Lena's number in it."
"For free?"
"Yeah." Tyler smiled.
"Okay!" It was a freaken free tablet. Who would not want one?!
Tyler went to his office and got out a brand new tablet. He handed to Sammy and they both activated it on as they wait for her dad to show up. Sammy was too preoccupied with the newest advance tablet that she did not notice what Tyler planned all along.
He took the scented phonecard that Lena gave Sammy. He smelled it once before putting it in his own wallet. 'Taken?' He chuckled. 'If she was not his, then she will never be taken.'
