Chapter 409
Although I couldn't accept the fact that Ning Jiayi was pregnant and was pregnant with Callen's child, she was my sister after all. I couldn't ignore her.
I immediately called my uncle. The call was called twice or thrice, but it was not connected. Maybe it was because my uncle didn't want to talk to me at all. Normally, I wouldn't call him again. But when I thought of the message sent by Ning Jiayi, I couldn't ignore it. I had no choice but to keep calling my uncle.
"Haven't we made it clear what we said that day? Why are you still calling me?" As soon as his uncle received the phone call, he questioned me from head to toe.
"Uncle, is Jiayi at home?" I pretended not to hear his hurtful words.
"What does it have to do with you whether she is at home or not? In the future, you can pretend that you don't have a sister like Ning Jiayi, and you don't need to care about her, the so-called sister," his uncle said coldly.
I ignored my uncle's words and told him what happened just now. Then I said, "If Jiayi is really not at home, I believe that something must have happened to her. Otherwise, she would not have sent me this message for help. That's why I hurried to find my uncle to confirm it."
I waited for a long time, but my uncle didn't answer. I could only say, "If you don't believe me, then call the police!"
The uncle on the other side of the phone said after a moment of silence, "Jiayi has not gone home for two days. We don't know where she went."
"How come?" I said in surprise, "You haven't been home for two days. Don't you worry? Don't you want to call the police? Or do you know where she went and what happened to her?"
"If only we knew where he went. At least we don't have to worry about him here. It's a pity that we don't know at all. If we had chosen to call the police now, Callen would have known it as soon as possible." My uncle's words puzzled me very much. I asked, "So what if you know? We don't even know where pregnant women are now. The first thing we have to do is to find Ning Jiayi."
"That's just what you think. If Callen knows that Ning Jiayi is missing, he will definitely be suspicious. He will even think that the child in Jiayi's belly is not his. What if Callen doesn't want the child at that time?" His uncle said with distress.
Hearing her uncle's words, I felt very sad. If they could have listened to me earlier and not let Jiayi stay with Callen, let alone keep this child, how could so many things have happened?
"Uncle, do you like Callen so much? You should know very well how we divorced at that time, and Callen is now a married man. Didn't you ask Jiayi to be his mistress?"
"He promised us that as long as we gave birth to a child, he would immediately break up with his current wife. He also said that he no longer had any feelings for his current wife. He really likes Jiayi. Seeing that Jiayi already has her own child, what can I do?" His uncle said sadly.
There was a burst of anger in my heart. "Do you really believe what he said? Do you really think that Callen, who gave birth to a child, can break up with his current wife? Without his current wife, how could he get to the current position of the company step by step? Why do you believe him so much?"
"It's not the right time to ask these questions. The most important thing is to get Jiayi back." His uncle interrupted me and didn't want to continue.
Since her uncle didn't want to say anything more, there was no need for me to say anything more. Anyway, there was no point in talking. The most important thing was to find Ning Jiayi now. "Uncle, you can choose to call the police now. The police will come to find her sooner."
"No, if the police come to look for Jiayi, Callen will definitely know it as soon as possible." His uncle rejected my proposal without hesitation.
I took a deep breath on the other end of the phone. It was hard to believe that this was what my uncle said. He clearly knew that his daughter had not returned home for two days, but he was still worried that Callen would know. It was really unacceptable.
Just when I was thinking about calling the police, the phone suddenly vibrated again. I looked at the text message sent by Ning Jiayi. It said, "Sister, come to the club to pick me up. I can't go back alone. Don't tell my parents. I'll send you the location now. You must come alone."
I looked at the contents and heard my uncle not letting me call the police.
In the end, I interrupted my uncle. "I already know where Jiayi is. I'm going to pick her up now. Don't worry, I'll send her back later."
"Do you know?" His uncle asked with some doubt.
"She just sent me a message asking me to pick her up. I'll be right there."
Uncle didn't say anything more and directly hung up my phone. Looking at the phone that had been hung up, I had mixed feelings in my heart.
On the one hand, I felt that because she had a father like her uncle, that was why Ning Jiayi had come to this point. She chose to have an affair with a married person like Callen and was pregnant. She was timid and did not care that the person who had an affair with her was my ex-husband. Just thinking about it made me feel ironic and ridiculous.
But on the other hand, I felt sad. After all, I went to pick up Ning Jiayi's uncle, who was not worried that something would happen to me. He didn't even say a word. I really didn't know whether it was because his uncle was cold-blooded or because of our family affection.
If such a thing had happened to someone else, I could have gone over and said a few words. But now that it had happened to me, I really didn't know how to say it. What's more, my uncle seemed to support Ning Jiayi's behavior, as if she had done the right thing.
Although I was very sad, there was nothing I could do. Now Ning Jiayi was pregnant outside, and she was under the club. If I didn't go, she might not come back at all. Although I really wanted to call Callen and ask him to pick up Ning Jiayi, I hesitated when I thought of what my uncle had said.
If Callen only knew that Ning Jiayi had not gone home for two days, he might not care about his uncle anymore. After all, his woman had stayed outside for two days, and no one knew what she had done.
It was very likely that he would use this excuse to cut ties with Ning Jiayi and would no longer care about the child in her belly. At that time, the life of his uncle's family would be even more difficult. Although Callen wanted to belong to his own child, he did not believe that he could swallow the insult and humiliation for the sake of the child.
