You are the pearl, Mo Mengchen

Chapter 1053 Claudia's Message

16th Chapter [-] Claudia's message

“超级对飙：Dor.Mo62+11+8 oh AI60+6+6！”

There is such a game before the All-Star Weekend, which is very exciting to the fans.

As the parties involved, neither Mo Mengchen nor Iverson had that much feeling.

One is enough to win;
One is unhappy after losing.

The reporter failed to dig out too much from them. Instead, Anthony rarely gave the reporter good material to dig deeper into the game: "Some people say that I can't play key shots. They are wrong."

One word stirred up thousands of waves, and one short sentence made Anthony once again involved in the vortex of public opinion. However, the All-Star weekend is coming soon, and he should not have to spend too much time to deal with the public opinion that is sweeping over from the outside world.

Back in Detroit, the Pistons rested in peace.

Those who should take a vacation, and those who should participate in the All-Star Weekend, book a ticket to Houston.

On the day of departure, Mo Mengchen got up very early.

It stands to reason that he doesn't need to go to Houston in advance. Back then, Jordan was not so enthusiastic about the All-Star Weekend. He often came late after gambling in the casino for several days, unlike other All-Stars who went to the place to announce a few days in advance. "I love it here / I can't wait to perform / Thank you all for your support" Three business-like speeches.

There was only one reason why Mo Mengchen left so early. Alan Houston had a stage play to be performed.

As a special guest, it is natural to be present.

For this reason, Mo Mengchen complained a lot about Houston. You said that as a wounded person, it’s fine if you don’t recuperate well, and you also have various commercial performances?He now understands the feelings of Rockets fans very well.

This guy has an annual salary of 1900 million this year. He has only played 2 games for the Rockets so far this season, averaging 11 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists per game. His efficiency and statistics have fallen to the lowest point of his career.

Houston has become a representative of high salary and low ability, but the Rockets are easy to ask God to give away. No one dares to take over such a big contract.

Houston's annual salary is 1900 million this year and 2000 million next season. Unless the Rockets are fat and willing to hand over a large number of unprotected draft picks, everyone is not a fool, and no one will take this hot potato.

To the fans, Houston was horribly evil, but from the perspective of his friends, he did nothing wrong.

He has completed his meritorious deeds.

Want a champion, have a champion;
If you want a big contract, you will sign a big contract.

Carefree, and has suffered serious injuries in recent years. When he left the Pistons to prove that his ambitions have disappeared, he only has a heart to perform. I just don’t know if there will be extreme fans coming to smash the field on the day of the performance?

Thinking of this, Mo Mengchen was full of expectations for this perhaps not so exciting stage play.

Mo Mengchen was preparing in the living room when suddenly the phone rang at home.

He picked it up casually: "Hello, who is it?"

"You are Mr. Mo, right?"

It sounded like an elderly woman's voice.

"It's me, who are you?"

"I'm Claudia, Ephraim's aunt, do you remember? When you got married, I was still on stage to give a speech."

Mo Mengchen has always had a good memory, he remembered.

Claudia Davis, sister of Ephraim's mother.After Ephraim's father was imprisoned, Ephraim and Adrian lived in Claudia's house for a long time, and Claudia treated her niece as her own.

"Ephraim is coaxing the children in the room, what can you do?"

"Oh, what else can I do, about Pedro, that guy called me again a few days ago, saying that he and Mr. Mo...yes, that is, you met."

Claudia's character is a bit like a combination of Ephraim and Adrian, carefree, it is said that Ephraim's cooking skills are perfectly inherited from her aunt.

Claudia's words made Mo Mengchen puzzled.

"Pedro?" Mo Mengchen needed to confirm, "Ephraim's father?"

"Yes, didn't he meet you?" Claudia said, "That guy said so clearly, did he lie to me? No reason, he has no reason to lie to me about this."

Mo Mengchen has met too many people, but his memory is very good, so he can remember most of them.

Of course, he definitely couldn't remember those passers-by on the street.

"I really haven't met Pedro. Did he say anything else? For example, where did he meet me?" Mo Mengchen asked.

"He didn't say, this guy is very mysterious."

Mo Mengchen hesitated for a while and asked, "Does Ephraim know about this?"

"I know, Pedro contacted Ephraim through me. He wanted to meet with Ephraim, but Ephraim refused. This girl has too much prejudice against Pedro. Mr. Mo, please persuade me Advise her, no matter what, Pedro is also her father."

"What else do you know about Pedro?"

"This guy, he was released from prison two years ago. As soon as he was released from prison, he asked me about Ephraim's whereabouts. I didn't tell him at first, but he kept pestering me. Later, I had no choice but to tell him the whereabouts of Ephraim. Ephraim lives in Detroit, but I said it, and Ephraim is mad at me for it!"

Mo Mengchen worked hard to get used to Claudia's southern accent, and then tried to guess Pedro's purpose from these messages.

What does he want to do?

Since he is Ephraim's father, from a Chinese (essential) point of view, he is also his half father, if he needs anything, as a son-in-law, he will help to do it, as long as it is reasonable and legal.

"So he lives in Detroit now?"

"Yes, he has always wanted to meet with Ephraim to clear up the original misunderstanding, but he has never had the chance. You know, Ephraim is a celebrity in Detroit. She is Mr. Mo's wife, and Pedro can't get close at all. she"

"Okay, thanks for telling me that."

Mo Mengchen chatted with Claudia for a few more words before hanging up the phone.

Just after hanging up Claudia's call, Mo Mengchen immediately dialed the office of the bodyguard team in the apartment.

"Luka, you and Selsey wait for me in the parking lot."

Efalian tidied Mo Mengchen's clothes for the next few days, and she brought them out: "Mengchen, look."

"Claudia just called." Mo Mengchen said.

Ephraim asked, "What did she say?"

"There is something about Pedro." Mo Mengchen said, "She said Pedro saw me."

"When?" Ephraim asked seriously.

Mo Mengchen shook his head and said, "I have no impression, maybe he came to watch the game, maybe he was near the press conference, maybe he was one of the crowd of fans watching the team bus, I don't know. "

Ephraim was silent.

"Since he wants to see you, why don't you meet him?" Mo Mengchen asked suddenly.

"Didn't I tell you that?" Ephraim folded his clothes and put them in Mo Mengchen's suitcase, "From childhood, I lived with the idea that he hated me and Adrian, since he hated We, I also hate him, this is how I have come here all these years."

Mo Mengchen closed the luggage: "Then you shouldn't hide it from me."

"I'm sorry," Ephraim said, "I just didn't want to distract you."

"I'd rather be distracted by you than by the trivial matters of the team." Mo Mengchen gently cupped Ephraim's cheek with his fingers, "You'd better confess next time, I'm catching a flight today, If it wasn't for catching a plane, I would..."

Ephraim smiled and said, "The child is still here, what do you want?"

Mo Mengchen shrugged and reluctantly gave up a series of animal-like plans in his mind.

"If you need anything, call me." Mo Mengchen said, "I will come back right away."

"What about the All-Star Game?"

"People will understand my disappearance, because I was exhausted from traveling and traveling, and I had to go back to Detroit to recuperate after getting off the plane." Mo Mengchen made up an excuse in advance, but it was destined not to be used.

Ephraim didn't want Mo Mengchen to miss the All-Star Weekend because of this kind of thing: "Go with peace of mind."

Mo Mengchen dragged his luggage, went to the door and shouted: "Little guys inside, you still have 2 minutes to say goodbye to dear dad!"

Four children ran out of the room one after another, like a squad of soldiers.

Mo Mengchen bent down slowly, gave each of them a father's kiss, and finally waved goodbye.

In the parking lot, the two bodyguards of Mo Mengchen's ward have been waiting for a long time.

Seeing Mo Mengchen coming, they stood upright, like in the army.

"Mr. Mo, I have something to tell you."

"Cecile, help me find someone." Mo Mengchen waited for him to get ready, and then said, "Pedro Orrena, 56 years old, currently lives in Detroit, I want you to find out his address, His current job, and his latest access point."

"As for Luca." Mo Mengchen looked at the Spaniard, "I need a bodyguard for this journey."

Spaniard Luca Adriano nodded and said, "I am your sword and shield."

Mo Mengchen couldn't stand the loyal look of the Spaniard, so he asked him to put his luggage on the car first, and then get on the car directly.

With Cecil's abilities, Pedro shouldn't be able to hide for long.

In any case, he will find out Pedro's purpose. If there is a misunderstanding, he will try his best to help Ephraim and Pedro reconcile. After all, they are father and daughter.

It was a big deal for him, he could be someone else's father and grandpa, but he'd never get his parents back.
