Your Love Is My Weapon novel Chapter 379

When they left the restaurant, Arya reached out her hand and found a USB flash drive wrapped in a piece of tissue. There were two same words on the tissue.

The word was 'one'.

Arya frowned as she had no idea what these two words meant.

"Mommy, what are you thinking about?"

Ryan looked at Arya, who got lost in thought.

Arya put that into her bag. She didn't know what it meant. Therefore, she dared not to make any decision.

She continued the dinner with Ryan. But her son lost his appetite and refused to eat more after only two bites. He said, "Mommy, let's get back home."

Arya looked at him and said, "You should eat more."

"I'm full." Ryan blinked.

Arya had no choice but took him out of the restaurant. When they walked to the door, Ryan held Arya's hand and said, "Mommy, shall we take a walk?"

Arya agreed.

At this moment, Arya would agree to any request he made.

While waiting for Xavier, she would spend the most time with her two children and replace him to manage the company.

The night sky was dark, dotted with stars.

Arya held Ryan's little hand and asked him, "Ryan, are you used to staying in the kindergarten?"

Ryan thought for a moment, "It's okay."

She turned to look at him, "What do you mean by it's okay?"

"I mean it's neither good nor bad," Ryan said faintly.

Then Arya looked at him with a smile.

"Mom, Grandma and Aunt said my dad was on a business trip. Is it a lie?" Ryan looked at his mother.

Although it was a question, he said it certainly. Before Arya could explain, he continued, "If dad was just on a business trip, grandma wouldn't have cried so hard and you wouldn't have locked yourself in your bedroom for a month without saying one word. I know you're not telling me the truth because you're afraid that I'll be sad. But mommy, I've been a grown-up."

Arya stopped and squatted down to hold Ryan's shoulders. She was surprised and relieved to hear what he said. Then she reached out to hug him tightly.

"Mommy, don't be sad. My sister and I will always be with you."

Arya didn't want to cry in front of Ryan, but she just felt that she cannot help herself.

But Ryan wiped her tears and told her, "Mommy, mommy, you still have me and my sister."

Ryan held her head and said, "I will study hard to be a useful person in the future to protect mommy and sister."

Arya was moved by this little man and kissed his face.

They walked for a while before Arya took Ryan back home.

Ramona was looked after well by Daisy and Bridget. And she was sleeping when Arya came back.

After walking into the study, Arya took out the USB flash drive in her bag and tried to figure out the meaning of these two words. But she failed to figure it out.

Then she called Jacob to ask him to come over.

After Arya put down the phone, the study door was pushed open. It was Mr. Jones.

The old residence was home to a limited number of rooms with only one study. It was Mr. Jones that spent a little time in the study when Xavier had been here.

Looking at Mr. Jones, Arya stood up from his chair and said, "Dad..."

Mr. Jones shook his hand and asked her to sit down, "I come here just for a book."

His voice used to be sonorous, but it sounded weak at this moment.

But Arya didn't sit down. When Mr. Jones came over to take the book, he reached out to hold her shoulder unconsciously hard, as if he was struggling in his mind. But in the end, he just said, "Have a rest on time. Don't be too late."

He was grateful to Xavier who gave much support in his career. And at the critical moment of life and death, Xavier gave him the chance to live. Gratitude is too important for him to pay back for the rest of his life.

He just told the fact that Arya was as important as Xavier for him. When Xavier was absent now, he would definitely help Arya manage the company and get Rufus punished.

"Then tell me, can Rufus himself escape from your eyes without any help and pretend that he has already left for another country?"

Arya had never asked before because she wanted Jacob to tell her.

But according to her observation, Jacob didn't want to say.

Jacob lowered her head. He knew that Arya was smart, but it was beyond his expectation that she could calm down quickly and find something special.

"Don't worry about it, madam. I'll catch Rufus by then."

Arya leaned back in her chair and looked at Jacob faintly, "Are you sure that you can catch Rufus?"

That guy who helped Rufus escape under Jacob's nose was as capable as Xavier. When Xavier was not around, could Jacob really catch Rufus?

Arya showed her suspect.

It wasn't because Jacob's capability is weak.

It was because the rival was too powerful.

And Jacob was not sure.

"You still don't want to tell me the truth, do you?"

Jacob clenched his fists tightly for a while. Finally, he looked up to Arya and told her about the collusion between Mr. Gates and the gang. "As Mr. Gates was caught, all the businesses of the Gates Family were sealed up. And the whole family lost a lot of benefits without Mr. Gates as an insider."

Arya lowered her eyes and pressed her forehead.

She thought the whole thing was not simple, but she didn't expect it to involve so much.

"I didn't tell you because I don't want you to be hurt because of that. I have to ensure your safety. Otherwise, I will..." Jacob's eyes turned red.
