Chapter 240: To Avoid Him Losing Her Again
Leslie believed the culprit would reappear. Unfortunately, she couldn’t tell when.
As a best friend to the male lead, Calix shouldn’t encounter too big of obstacles. The nerve-wracking crises only belonged to Xander’s side which took the majority of the story.
’If only I know the original storyline more. Some clues are better than nothing.’
Pressing her lips in a straight line, Leslie persuaded herself not to feel discouraged. Her lack of knowledge didn’t mean they couldn’t overcome the future obstructions.
Perhaps, clues leading to the perpetrators would arise sooner in the future. They just had to wait for the right time.
’Calliope. I have to focus on her first.’
Leslie returned her focus to Calix and Old Madam Xu. The grandmother and grandson pair were bantering while exchanging opinions. The old lady’s words piqued her interest.
"...won’t it be too time-consuming if you keep traveling from here to Bridgeland City? Aren’t there no other solutions?"
It seemed like Old Madam Xu was worried about Calix and Leslie’s plan. Her concern was not unfounded.
Calix was the CEO of a conglomerate. His schedule was usually full, either involving domestic or international affairs. At times, he could barely have a few hours of sleep before attending another agenda.
As for Leslie, she was still in a recuperation period. The journeys and changes in environments might not be good for her body.
