Chapter 816  Bad Encounter

~~*****~~

Mia was hurt by her discovery. It turned out Jane was not her biological mother.

\'My Dad lied to us. I wonder if he is also my biological father. I don\'t know what to believe in anymore.\' Mia thought to herself as she continued running away.

When she got tired, she sat in a waiting shed on the side of the road, picking up her phone. She needed someone to talk to at this moment. One person came into her mind– Ethan.

Mia immediately dialed Ethan\'s number. After a few seconds, the call got connected. Ethan\'s voice was heard from the other line.

"Hello, Mia?"

"Ethan. Are you free? Can I see you?"

"Yes. I\'m free. Where are you? Are you okay? Did you cry?" Ethan asked Mia worriedly when he noticed her hoarse voice.

"I\'m not o-okay," she replied. She had the urge to cry again but she held herself back. "I don\'t know where I am right now." Mia looked at her surroundings. "It\'s fine. Just open your GPS. I will track your location and I\'ll go there." Ethan immediately searched for a laptop. He was currently staying in the Xu Mansion, accompanying his grandfather.

"Where is your Mommy Jane? Is she not with you?" Ethan continued talking to Mia while looking around in Old Man Xu\'s study room.

"No. I ran away from home. I don\'t want her to see me like this." When Jane\'s name was mentioned, Mia could no longer hold her tears. They fell like raindrops coming from the corners of her eyes.

Ethan didn\'t know what happened to Mia. But he could feel that Mia needed him right now. As soon as he tracked her location, Ethan informed his grandfather that he was going out to meet his friend, Mia.

Old Man Xu asked the family chauffeur to drive Ethan. One bodyguard also accompanied Ethan.

After twenty-five minutes, Ethan finally found Mia who was sitting in the waiting shed by the roadside.

"Uncle, just stay here. I\'m just going to talk to my friend. I will convince her to come with me." Ethan instructed the guard and the driver to stay in the car and wait.

"Okay, Young master. We will watch you from here." n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Ethan didn\'t waste his time as he stepped out of the car. He ran in Mia\'s direction.

"Mia!" Ethan called her name, catching her attention. When Mia turned in his direction, Ethan waved his hand.

Mia smiled as soon as she met Ethan\'s gaze. She also stood up and ran to him. Without saying a word, Mia hugged Ethan when she reached his spot. She buried her face on his body and started to cry.

Ethan froze on his spot when he heard Mia\'s cry. "Hey, what\'s wrong? Why are you crying? Did your Mom scold you? Did you do something bad?"

Mia broke the hug and wiped her tears. Then she shook her head in response to Ethan\'s queries.

"Mommy Jane didn\'t scold me. I\'ve done nothing wrong. However… I heard a shocking discovery. Ethan…" Mia paused. She couldn\'t bring herself to say it out loud.

"Hmm. What is it? Tell me. I\'m going to listen." Ethan urged her to speak up.

Mia still hesitated. She looked down, trying to calm her emotions. She felt pathetic right now. She pitied herself.

"Can you promise me not to tell anyone?" Mia asked Ethan expectantly.

"Of course. I won\'t tell anyone." Ethan did a pinky swear to reassure Mia.

Mia heaved a deep sigh before confiding to Ethan.

"I just learned today that… Mommy Jane is not my real mother. My Daddy Vincent deceived us. He used me so that he could marry her." Sadness and bitterness were evident in her voice when she said those words.

Ethan was taken aback for a moment when he heard her last remarks. He had mixed feelings about this. But he understood Mia\'s pain and sadness at this moment.

"I am afraid that Mommy Jane will hate me for this. I\'m not her daughter. And I was used as an instrument to fool her." Mia expressed her fear to Ethan.

"Mia… don\'t be sad. I know Mommy Jane. She will not hate you. Even if you are not blood-related, she will still treat you as her daughter… just like how she treats me as her son." Ethan gently tapped her shoulders, comforting her.

"I hate my Dad! But I still love him." Mia burst out once more, tears flowing down her face. "But I admit I feel disappointed…"

"Mia, come with me. Let\'s cheer you up." Ethan held her hand.

Mia nodded.

They were about to leave and walk toward the car when someone blocked them.

"Hello, kids. Where do you think you are going?"

Both Ethan and Mia gazed up only to see someone whom they didn\'t expect to see.

"Aunt Helena?" Mia mumbled in surprise.

"Hi, Mia. Long time no see." She flashed a sinister smile.

Ethan stepped forward, shielding Mia away from Monica. He sensed some danger as he looked at her.

"Why are you here? What do you want from us?" Ethan asked her coldly. He was in his protective stance.

Monica just let out a mocking laugh as she eyed the two annoying children in front of her. "I\'m here to take Mia with me. Do you want to know who your real mother is?"

"Don\'t listen to her, Mia." Ethan held Mia\'s hand tightly.

Monica chuckled once more. "Hmm. Actually, I\'ve been looking for you as well, Ethan. I guess I\'m so lucky to see you here with Mia. You made my work easy. Both of you will come with me whether you like it or not."

At that certain moment, Ethan knew what he needed to do. "Mia! Let\'s run!" Ethan shouted.

But even before they could make a step, two men captured them from behind. "Young Master!" Ethan\'s guard noticed the scene as he hurriedly stepped out of the car. But it was too late. The sound of gunshots reverberated in the area.

Bang! Bang!

"NO!!!"

"Ethan!"

"Young Master!"
