Chapter 128: The Charming and Quaint District
On Leslie and Calix’s second day in Rome—a Saturday morning—the latter needed to head out as early as eight. He was required to meet Mr. Nucci at his company less than an hour away.
CEO Xu was busy even though it was the weekend.
To save time, Mr. Morino and Mr. Bernadi would come with a helicopter. It would be Calix’s first mode of transportation today. Mr. Tan and Mr. Hao would tag along.
When Leslie heard it for the first time, her jaw almost dropped to the floor. She paused from eating her breakfast prepared by Mrs. Rossi.
"In a helicopter? Then, you’ll continue traveling with it if the place is far?" asked Leslie, still in disbelief. Her mind began recalling the scenes she watched in dramas before.
Really... the more she lived with CEO Xu, the more surprises she faced.
"Why? Wanna follow me?" Calix raised his brows, a smirk hanging on his lips, "Finish your breakfast quickly. They’ll arrive soon."
"No, thanks," shaking her head, Leslie swiftly rejected Calix’s offer, "I wanna stroll around the neighborhood. You go and earn money for me. Don’t forget you’ll need to pay for the food I wanna try soon."
Calix scoffed, giving Leslie a side-eye. She returned it with a cheeky smile before continued eating her breakfast.
As arranged by them yesterday, Leslie planned to spend her day wandering around the neighborhood. Calix said he would try to return before dinner.
Leslie wore another dress Calix purchased for her from Lavender Thread. She plaited her long hair into a single braid before putting on the crochet hairband.
