Chapter 93 - Big News!

* * *

The next day. After staying up all night trying to find out what his older brother wanted him to find, Tian Zi was devastated to figure out he couldn't get as much information as he expected from his hacking skills.

Veronica Chime was a surprisingly traditional person, her personal social media account wasn't actually her personal, in fact, she didn't own one. Also, her email address was managed by her manager Remi Long so Tian Zi couldn't do much. 

Tian Zi also tried hacking Veronica's phone but the actress's name wasn't registered on the country's local phone directory. She might have used other names so unless the actress clicks on one of the links he sent on her mobile phone, Tian Zi wouldn't be able to do anything.

The young Alpha parked his Maybach exelero directly in front of the main porch, he then gets off and puts his sunglasses on. He was only wearing a white shirt and long chino shorts that he wore since yesterday.

Groaning at the sun's radiance hitting him as he walks towards the front door, Tian Zi finally barged in into the mansion and to the dining table where his eldest brother, Daniel, and nephew was eating breakfast. He groans again internally when Daniel's scent massacred his nostrils; it surprises him how the whole place was rubbed on with his smell as if he intentionally did it.

Thankfully, he had greater control of himself more than his brothers.

Tian Zi watches the couple for a second then walked straight to one of the chairs to sit. Tian Zi didn't have to say when David already asked someone to set the table for young Alpha as soon as he saw the young man walking inside. 

Mo Laotian monotonously followed his youngest brother with his piercing eyes the second the young Alpha came into the dining area. Mealtime, especially breakfast was Laotian's private moment with Daniel; he doesn't like other people joining in.

Although he said yesterday he wanted a result in the morning, he was hoping the young Alpha would give him a visit to the company instead and not at his house.

"Minmin, it's uncle Zi. Wanna say hi?" Daniel asked smiling after feeding the 2 years old. Luangmin peeks at Tian Zi and shakes his head pulling his mother's arm to hide which made Daniel to helplessly caress the little boy's head.

"Why baby? It's uncle Zi." Daniel cooed and wipes his mouth but Luangmin still refused to let go of Daniel in an attempt to hide. Daniel ended up picking him up from the high chair and helped him hide from Tian Zi who didn't even care how his nephew had been scared of him for no reason. He just removed his sunglasses and shifted his eyes from Daniel to Mo Laotian who raised his eyebrows in question then picks the cup of coffee that David had quickly poured for him.

" It's unfair that David is here with you again. Wasn't it my turn to keep him? " Tian Zi started frowning seeing that David had now become his older brother's butler again when it has been years since he requested the old man to come at his place and take care of him too. Although Tian Zi lives at the No Estate now, he does have a house himself. It wasn't as big a his elder brothers but it was big enough to call it a mansion as well.

" David is needed here to take care of Daniel. " 

" Both you and older brother Hanlu have always good reasons to say. " Tian Zi continued to complain after sipping on his coffee. He then proceeded to eat his own share of breakfast. Mo Laotian didn't bother answering his complaints anymore and decided to ignore TianZi. Meanwhile, Daniel who was curious about the young Alpha's appearance at the house so early in the morning scanned Tian Zi which the Young Alpha quickly noticed.

" So, what brings you here if you don't mind? " Daniel asked after the Alpha caught his curious eyes. Even though they had been in-laws for 3 years now, Daniel and Tian Zi still couldn't help but be awkward with each other. It is because, even though basically they are of the same age, the Alpha had to respect Daniel like he was older because the Omega married his eldest brother.

Additionally, Tian Zi isn't used to being around with an Omega and Daniel's scent does still bothers him.

" Bussiness. " Tian Zi simply replied guessing his brother wouldn't want his wife to involve on complicated things like Mo Hanlu having possibly another illegitimate son with a movie star Veronica Chime.

Possibly because Tian Zi couldn't confirm it's authenticity and that's why he came, right now, there was a 50/50 chance after discovering that Mo Hanlu and Veronica had indeed been with each other a couple of months ago after passing through a fan cam with the two checking in a hotel.

" Oh yes, I heard from Laotian you wanted to build your own company. Good luck to you. " Daniel chatted remembering Laotian once mentioned it. He was also going to be twenty-two this year but he never thought of building his own company. Daniel was even more amazed at the brothers.

" Yeah, thanks. " Tian Zi shortly replied and couldn't say more so the dining table once again become silent and awkward between the two. Daniel smiled and nodded then turned his attention to Luangmin. Seeing the atmosphere between the two, Laotian couldn't help but sigh rubbing his temples.

His morning was supposed to be all about Daniel but his youngest brother just had to ruin it. Either Hanlu or Tian Zi, Mo Laotian really couldn't choose who he likes the most because he both liked and hated them equally.

Breakfast quickly ended shortly, in order to give privacy to the two, Daniel decided to stay in the living room and play with Luangmin while Laotian and Tian Zi went ahead to the office next to the library.

Shutting the door close behind him, Tian Zi followed Laotian deeper into the room and sat quickly on the available couch.

" What did you find? " Laotian asked gravelly.

" Well, not much actually. The woman's not into technology which is very surprising considering her career. " Tian Zi started, his eyes wandered around the room that hasn't change from the very first time he had been on it.

" So you're saying? "

" Oh, but I did find out that they checked in a hotel two months ago. I hacked into the hotel's security system and saw them walked into the same room, that could be the day. Hanlu came out after 15 minutes but they could have done it right? " Tian Zi replied, he can't really do much if the woman wasn't even using technology, and even if she did, Tian Zi still needs to access her personal mobile phone which was very difficult for him to find.

It's like the woman was on stealth mode ever since. Tian Zi also hacked the people who had recently been associated with the actress but he found nothing important. 

" . . . " 

" Hey, I did my best. If you want, you can hire someone to follow her. I can't do much if it doesn't involve tech data. I'll try finding out more but I need more time since this woman is like a ninja. " Tian Zi complained after seeing Mo Laotian's nonchalant expression. He needed to do more advanced research if they really needed but that requires a lot of time.

But although TianZi said this, he was thinking wasn't it more convenient and faster if they kidnap the woman and do some DNA tests!? He really didn't understand why they needed to do a background check and find out who the father was in secret when they can do it upfront. If the baby was really Hanlu's then they'll keep it and pay the woman. Simple.

" Find out more and block anything that will come out in public. " Laotian spoke then walked to get some files he gathered for Tian Zi in regards to him building his company. " Here, look into this and see me when you've decided. " Laotian said and puts the folder on the center table. Tian Zi took it and opened the files in excitement before he stood up and mused " All right! Thanks. " with a grin.

Afterward, Tian Zi left to his own destination while Laotian took his time bidding his farewell to Daniel and Luangmin. 

" Bye-bye Daddy. " Daniel taught Luangmin and the little boy copied saying " ba-bye dada. " waving his little hands. Laotian leaned forward to kiss the little guy on the forehead then went to cover his eyes stealing a kiss from Daniel. And it was not a simple kiss, Daniel chuckled between their connection as his fingers dr.a.p.e over to the Alpha's nape and played with his hair giving it a slight tug before they regretfully separate with a heavy breath.

" See you later. " Laotian adoringly whispered against the Omega's ears and gave him one final peck on his cheeks. 

" Hmmm, have a lot of fun at work. Don't forget to miss us. " Daniel bites on his lips as both of them separates. He then jokes earning a laugh from Mo Laotian.

" I will. Every second. " Laotian replied messing with Luangmin's soft hair before he decided to leave for work. As always every day, parting in the morning was the saddest moment of Mo Laotian's day and in the evening when he comes back was the happiest.

Before the engine of his service roared awake, Laotian waved his final goodbye until his driver drove away from the mansion, from his comfort, from Daniel and to his solitary wishing the day would end quickly. 

Unfortunately to Mo Laotian's dismay, his day would not end as likely as he expected it would be when later that day news broke out about Veronica Chime being pregnant with Mo Hanlu. He was just doing the usual paper works when Daniel called him. Laotian thought it was unusual for the Omega to call him during work time but he smiled anyway because it was his wife who called.

" Hello? " Laotian pressed the green telephone icon and spoked as he leaned his back to his chair. 

" Hello uhmm, Laotian? I don't know if you already knew but turn on your TV and put it on ENews. " Daniel said, he himself watching the TV. He doesn't usually watch TV but sometimes he does to ease boredom when he's done painting or sketching.

Additionally, he wasn't allowed to fully take care of Luangmin so he's extremely bored and decided to watch TV. But while scanning through the Channels, Daniel didn't expect to encounter a huge news. Veronica Chime, pregnant with Hanlu's? Daniel wanted to confirm immediately so he called Laotian.

Laotian did what Daniel asked him to do and the second he saw who was currently being interviewed. The gentle smile on his face turns dark.

" Did you see it?" Daniel asked snapping the Alpha out of his wicked mind.

" Hmmm, Yes, I see it. " Laotian confirmed, his voice was rough. He could hardly believe the actress's courage to defy him.

" Is that true Laotian? " Daniel asked again worried. Although Daniel was a fan of the actress, Daniel prefers Ian Andrews more. He also worries about what his fellow Omega reaction was or what he say about the news. If the news was true it would be hopeless for Hanlu and Ian to be together. The Omega wouldn't allow it.

" I don't know yet. " Laotian replied truthfully, he was leaning more on the false side but if the actress was brave enough to make it public then maybe it was true!? Laotian doesn't know at all!

" What do you think? "

" I hope it's not. " Laotian spoke, his voice getting lower by the second as he glare at the woman's fake smiles at the TV.

" Honey, I'll call you later. Don't make yourself worry about this, I'll take care of it and see you later this afternoon. Okay? " Laotian excused which Daniel nodded okay saying his goodbye as well.
