Chapter 1176 - Chapter 1176 Chapter 1176 Talking All Night
Chapter 1176: Chapter 1176: Talking All Night Chapter 1176: Chapter 1176: Talking All Night Such artless, valueless paper cranes were treasured and carefully stored away by him, the feeling was akin to placing a stone in a box set with jewels.
Baron Lawrence never felt he was making a fuss over nothing.
In his eyes, nothing in the room was more important than these paper cranes!
He picked up one, trying to unfold it without damaging the fragile paper.
The wrinkled paper crane was quickly undone, revealing a small row of characters inside–“Wishing Baron Lawrence good health, happiness, and smooth sailing this year.”
His hawk-like eyes suddenly softened, as if the stars had fallen into them, making those beautiful eyes dazzle irresistibly.
He read that simple line of text over and over, more than a dozen times, before he carefully folded the fragile paper and placed it into a clear glass bottle.
That glass bottle already contained more than twenty similar pieces of paper, in addition to paper used for folding cranes, it also held dozens of little stars.
The luminous little stars looked no different from ordinary stars under the light, but he remembered how they shone in the water.
After accomplishing all this, Baron Lawrence placed the glass bottle back into the safe and relocked it.
His thin lips curved slightly, and at that moment, his phone vibrated. He immediately picked up the call when he saw the caller ID.

“Now?” Enna was momentarily stunned.
Had he finished all his work for today? Judging by the background, he must be in his study; Enna pondered for a moment before asking, “Are you going to sleep?”
What did this woman mean? He couldn’t listen to her reading if he wasn’t going to sleep? Baron Lawrence frowned, commanding arrogantly, “Can’t I hear you speak if I don’t sleep?”
“Of course not, it’s just that you said you wanted to hear me read a book, didn’t you?”
“Do you think you have anything to say that will be more than reading a book?” He wanted to hear her speak, which was precisely why he asked her to read books. Because only when reading could her mouth keep moving and he could keep hearing her voice.
Enna had never heard such a robber-like theory before; three lines of exasperation formed on her forehead, and she absentmindedly picked up a book to start reading, “According to the provisions of Contract Law…”
