Chapter 457: I can prove you wrong
Oh, did she? Lanni mocked him in her heart.
"I told her what I thought of it and she yelled at me. We fell out so badly that I had to call and ask whether what the media revealed is true." She explained the nonsense she had come up with a while ago, which was in line with Flynn’s plan.
"It’s a lie. You know that I would never hurt my own flesh and blood. Actually, Lanni, there is something I didn’t tell you."
"What is it?" Lanni asked.
"That day, I had a bug on me. Someone is trying to investigate me for heaven knows what reason."
Lanni was amused by his ability to push logic. Was he trying to make it seem like he had been forced to say such mean words to save her and Luna? He had even cleverly left it to her imagination so she would be the one to fill in the meaning behind his words. If she exposed him later, he would simply deny having said anything about it.
"I understand." She was too tired to argue with him so she dismissed him.
’Why does this seem too good to be true? It’s happening all too easily.’ Xia Hanchen questioned mentally on the other end.
Before he could think about it, he heard what he perceived to be the main reason why Lanni had given him a call.
"I got a job offer but it’s from a private agency. The owner wants to meet up with me in private." Her voice was a mixture of excitement and nervousness.
"Why would you want to meet up with a stranger in private? The fact that he claims it to be a private agency is suspicious." He warned out of instinct, but he was not trying to look out for her safety. He was only acting as a caring father to once again gain her trust.
