Chapter 546: The Autumn Hues of the Bamboo Lake Forest
Leslie felt a little weird when Calix brought up going somewhere the next month right after they returned from their trip to the orphanage. Especially when he said they should go away for four days at least.
Calix mentioned the next trip when they had dinner, right on the same day they returned from the orphanage. The merriment from yesterday was still close to their hearts.
Looking at Calix across the dining table with Calliope beside him, Leslie asked, her tone lacing with curiosity, "Aren’t you busy, honey? I heard Edward say the company will be busier before the end of the year."
Sometimes, Edward visited the manor on the weekend, bringing his beloved dog along. He had meals, especially dinner with Aunt Wendy and Uncle Raymond.
Calliope loved playing with the Chow Chow. The adorable female dog was bestowed with the name Paw-Paw by Edward.
Haha...
"It’s fine. The company won’t collapse just because I don’t go there for four days," replied Calix after swallowing a bite, "How about a bamboo lake forest? We can go boating there."
The mention of the place piqued Leslie’s interest. Her mind immediately conjured the breathtaking vision of a bamboo forest during the peak of autumn.
She hadn’t enjoyed the autumn season as much as this time because...
She lost him when the autumn was at its peak.
