“Mitchell?!” A voice rang out, knocking Bai Lixin out of his thoughts. He swayed and looked up at Master Lambert, “Huh? What is it, Father.”
Master Lambert frowned in concern, “What were you thinking so deeply? I called you several times. ”
Bai Lixin blinked and was about to speak when he was enveloped in a broad chest. “Father, Mitchell is not feeling well, so I will take him to his room. As for the proposal you made earlier, we will discuss it when we return. ”
Bai Lixin only felt a force carry his body from the sofa. He looked up at Hallyvette and saw him nod gently to him. He turned and smiled slightly at Master Lambert. “Father, then we will go to our room first.”
Back in their room, Hallyvette sat on the sofa in silence for a moment and said solemnly, “What Father said was not without reason. However, if someone truly intended to harm you, they would not have warned you in such a way that you would put you on high alert. If I were to kill a man, I would do it by surprise and send him on his way in the most unexpected way. The security of our Lambert family is guaranteed. To think that someone could unknowingly drop a letter into a letterbox under such circumstances, that person’s tactics are not low.”
Bai Lixin nodded, “I think so too. The Lambert family home is surrounded by a large number of cameras and infrared sensor systems, monitored twenty-four hours a day. This person was so bold as to drop the letter in such a context, it is evident that he was prepared. ”
“Baby, you stay here for now. I’ll check the surveillance and see if I find anything. Don’t go anywhere until I get back. ” Harriet thought for a moment and looked at Bai Lixin.
“Okay, go ahead.”
After sending Hallyvette away, Bai Lixin smoothed his thoughts again.
He sat on the sofa and took a sip of water, sinking his mind down and slowly continuing to think back.
The man who had set all this up knew him extremely well.
He knew that if he was forcibly imprisoned, he would only be rewarded with his resistance. If he, Bai Lixin, was to stay in a place, it could only be a place he would want to stay in out of his own free will.
That person even knew exactly how he would react! Bai Lixin’s brow furrowed tightly.
The easiest and most effective way was to make Master Lambert think that his life was being threatened, and to make Master Lambert intervene and ground him!
For one thing, he was quite fond of Master Lambert, and for another, he was also the father of his beloved, and for whatever reason, he would not easily disobey the kindness of a caring old man. But how could the person manipulate this know about this weakness of his?
The more he thought about it, the more horrified he felt. He looked around, and walked to the computer placed on the desktop…
The original song contest was still in full swing even without his participation.
Bai Lixin stayed in the Lambert family home all day. His daily needs were catered to by Master Lambert. Hallyvette hadn’t come back from the day he went out three days ago.
Bai Lixin was worried and asked S419M to check, but was unable to locate Hallyvette.
Although they talked on the phone occasionally, Hallyvette was nowhere to be seen. Only he and Master Lambert were left in the empty mansion, helpless as never before.
He had never felt so powerless. He knew that he was standing in front of a wall, but he couldn’t even see where the door in the wall was. He wanted to find out who the culprit was, but he didn’t even know who that person was or where that person was.
After lunch, Master Lambert smiled as he looked at Bai Lixin and whispered, “Mitchell, in my day, omegas were supposed to stay at home and be pampered by alpha. How could they go out to work? I didn’t approve of you going out to work, but now it’s a good opportunity for you to stop. Because an omega should stay at home and give the alpha the purest offspring. That’s what an omega should do, don’t you think? Mitchell, Hallyvette is not young, and I am also old. I need to leave when there is an offspring in our Lambert family. ”
Bai Lixin’s hand trembled as he sipped his black tea and said awkwardly, “Father, it’s not like I can have children alone.”
“I know, but how can you conceive offspring when Hallyvette has not even marked you? As far as I’m concerned, this is a blessing in disguise. While you’re back this time, I’ve decided to have the two of you married as soon as possible and make your identity public. Ha! As the wife of the future head of the Lambert family, I will see who dares to even entertain the thought of touching you again. Mitchell, I have your future mapped out for you. After your wedding and honeymoon, come back and live a good life. Conceive your offspring earlier so you won’t be like me. My son is still in his youth and this old man is already old. You still have a long way to walk with your children. Wouldn’t you like to have a child with you and Hallyvette’s blood? ”
“Er, that ……” Bai Lixin was simply bewildered and embarrassed about the subject, “I haven’t thought about it.”
“I know you haven’t thought about it, but father has been around and thought about it for you. You can’t have just one child, but you can’t have as many as the Haiyin’s do either. Three is fine. ” The more Master Lambert spoke, the more energetic he became, with a happy smile on his face.
Bai Lixin glanced at Master Lambert and said, “Father, have there been any more letters sent to this place recently?”
Master Lambert’s eloquent speech came to an abrupt end. “No, but don’t worry Mitchell, I have strengthened the security system outside. A fly can’t get in, not to mention weird characters. ”
Bai Lixin’s face relaxed as he listened, but his heart sighed.
I’m not afraid of him coming; I’m afraid of him not coming. How can I find clues if he doesn’t come?
After finishing his conversation with Master Lambert, Bai Lixin returned to his room.
During these few days of house arrest, Bai Lixin had experienced being an aristocratic wife in a living way. Bai Lixin returned to the room, turned on the computer, and watched the live broadcast of the original song competition.
The original song contest was now in full swing, and the competition hadn’t changed at all because of his sudden withdrawal. As the son of the world, Haizi had excelled and had left the other contestants behind.
At the judges’ table, Jonas was still as beautiful as a picture, raising his hand with the air of a little fairy, getting all the limelight.
After watching the original song competition indifferently for a while, Bai Lixin closed the webpage and opened a chat window: [Did you think about it?
[Yes, I’m willing to help you. There’s a bar on Mercer Street; we’ll meet there tomorrow at 7 pm.]
[All right, see you there!]
Bai Lixin closed his computer and breathed a sigh of relief. He picked up his phone and dialled Hallyvette, “How is it going?”
Hallyvette hesitated for a couple of seconds before answering, “I found someone, but it’s a bit unexpected. I need to double-check. ”
“Okay, can you come home tomorrow? I have to go out on an errand. You have to come and take me out. I’m being held at home by father. The door is closed and he won’t let me out at all.” Bai Lixin said in a slightly aggrieved tone.
Hallyvette paused for another second, “Is it something important?”
“Yes! It’s very important!”
“Okay, I’ve got a bit of business on my end, so I’ll be home in the morning to take you out.” Hallyvette promised before the conversation changed and he whispered, “Baby, I miss you.”
Bai Lixin rubbed his neck and smiled, “If you miss me, get it over with and come back for me.”
The sound of Hallyvette’s light chuckle came from the other end of the phone, and Bai Lixin smiled at the familiar laugh, “Pay attention to health and safety first. I don’t want a crippled husband.”
Hallyvette let out a big laugh and said, “Don’t worry, the places that shouldn’t be crippled will stay strong.”
Bai Lixin chortled, “Three sentences and you are back to the same old problem, rascal.”
Hallyvette gave another laugh before adding, “Although you are at home, you can’t take it lightly. Take care of yourself. I’ll be back tomorrow after I’m done tonight.”
The suspicion in Bai Lixin’s mind became more and more certain. “I know. It’s not convenient to talk on the phone, but there’s something I might need to tell you. ”
“Okay, you get an early night. Bye baby, good night.”
“Mmm, good night.”
Bai Lixin hung up the phone and stayed seated for a while longer before going to wash up and turning off the light before bed.
…….
“My sweet child, why did you betray me?” an old voice came from the horizon.
Bai Lixin ran desperately through the void, his heart beating wildly as he warily looked back now and then, running away wildly and haphazardly.
Behind Bai Lixin, a dark shadow surrounded by a thick fog darted his way, chasing him as it roared from within, “Traitor! I curse you! I curse you! ”
As the black mist was about to catch up with him, Bai Lixin’s feet hit the ground, and he ran over the edge of the cliff and fell straight down.
Bai Lixin cried out and plummeted rapidly downwards, and just then a gale blew up, dispersing some of the mist that covered the black shadow and revealing a face that Bai Lixin was very familiar with.
Master Lambert!
