Chapter 107: The Truth Behind the Trashy Man’s Accusations
Leslie’s short reply faintly reached Calix but, it was enough to irritate him further. In his mind, he was already slamming Gerard a few times against the sandbag, including kicking the trashy man.
"Haa... That guy and his big mouth. What a pain in the ass."
Shaking his head out of frustration, Calix exhaled a loud sigh. Taking his left hand out of his pants pocket, he randomly massaged the back of his neck, thinking of Gerard’s audacity.
Leslie pursed her lips, suddenly feeling guilty for being honest. Even though Calix’s reaction was mild compared to her expectation, this matter was surely a touchy subject.
"Did he mention about my grandfather... wronging my grandmother?"
Calix’s previous question was enough to say something bad happened between Old Madam Xu and her deceased husband. But, Leslie didn’t dare to question the truth behind the cheating allegations.
Calix noticed the downcast look on Leslie’s face. Sighing once again, he gestured at the pavilion nearby, "Should we sit there and talk?"
Leslie blinked. The pavilion pointed by Calix was an open one. Currently, there were no people around here but, some might come later.
Wouldn’t they gossip next on seeing Calix talking by himself?
Even if Calix pretended to talk over the phone, the content of their conversation might not be safe for anyone to hear.
While thinking, Leslie caught something from the corner of her eyes.
