“Do you remember what | told you before?” Ryan asked.
Even though Ryan had only recently become an adult, he handled situations with maturity. He would
sometimes purposefully act naive in front of Anna. He didn’t bother pretending in front of Wayne,
though.
Wayne appeared solemn, like a statue. He then analyzed, “Richard owns approximately twenty
nightclubs in Birmingham. The police discovered drugs in two clubs this time, but neither had anything
to do with him. | paid close attention to where they were checking this time and was surprised that they
didn’t check even one of Richard’s clubs.”
Ryan looked at Wayne, hoping he understood what he was saying.
Wayne certainly got his meaning, as he had expected. They both knew there would be no such thing
as a coincidence in the world.
Since the cops were going to search the entire city for illegal drugs, they wouldn’t have spared all of
Richard’s nightclubs.
Asa result, they both suspected Richard of bribing the cops.
“What are your plans?” Wayne asked, his brow furrowed.
“To be honest, I’m not going to call the drug squad and tell them about it. Next month, our school will
host a live exercise with the Eighth Military District, and the Blue Eagle Department is located right
downtown. | believe they are more trustworthy than the drug squad. But I’m only concerned about one
thing: the driver saw Anna.”
Ryan paused briefly before continuing, Normally, drug dealers are extremely cautious and cruel. I’m
afraid that he might endanger Anna or even kill her.”
Wayne became serious after hearing his words, knowing that Ryan’s concerns made sense.
In the evening, Anna had just finished signing with a client when her phone in her pocket kept vibrating.
She took it out and found that someone had sent her several text, messages. To her surprise, they
were all from Leon.
Leon had just texted her to say hello after she left the studio.
And she had no idea how he had got her cell phone number. She examined the messages and noticed
that Leon didn’t send any words to her. Instead, he sent a lot of emojis and selfies with words on them:
“Anna, what are you doing?”
“Do you think I’m cute?”
“Why are you ignoring me? I’m mad at you now!”
“I’m starving…”
The longer Anna read his texts, the more irritated she became. As a result, she read his final message
directly: “Don’t forget about having dinner with me tonight! I’l be at the studio waiting for you.”
It wasn’t until then that Anna remembered that she invited him to dinner.
Then she asked Mona, “Mona, what time is Mona, who was in the passenger seat, glanced at her
watch and said, “It’s 7:30. What’s up?” “Is the commercial shooting over?” Anna asked. Mona replied, “I
asked the planner, and she said they had just finished their work. Everyone is now ready to leave.”
“Tell them not to leave just yet because I’m going to treat them to
dinner later. Will you find a restaurant nearby for me?”
“Sure, no problem. Will you be there?”
Anna motioned with her hand and said, “No, I’m not going. You can go there on behalf of me.”
“OKI”
After calling one of her colleagues, Mona said to the driver, “Sir, please stop at the next intersection. I’ll
take a taxi there. Will you please take Miss Gabriel home?”
Later on, as they passed through a downtown mall, Anna noticed a large LED advertising the Carousel
Group.
‘Ada had been appointed as the group’s spokesperson. She was dressed in a pure white silk gown and
appeared very innocent in the photograph.
But Anna was well aware that Ada was no innocent woman at all. She had harmed Matthew several
times in recent years and nearly killed him.
‘Ada pretended to be naive at first. But after dating Richard, she began to get tired of pretending. Anna
would have sued these two vicious people immediately if Wayne hadn’t said it wasn’t a good time.
Someone called her just as she was still in a daze.
Anna didn’t recognize the number and paused before responding, “Hello?”
“Anna, why aren’t you here yet?” Leon asked, sounding as if he was about to cry.
Anna froze and asked, “Leon? Is that you?”
He sniffled and grumbled, “Yes, this is me. It’s freezing outside! I’ve been waiting for you for AGES,
Anna.”
“Huh? But my assistant has reserved a table for dinner. Didn’t you get the message?”
Leon expressed his dissatisfaction, “No! | was desperate to see you, so Heft as soon as I finished my
work. I’ll meet you at the fountain in the center square.”
Anna smirked and said, “You really don’t have to wait forme. Mona informed everyone that they were
going out to dinner. I’ll give Mona your phone number and have her call you.”
Leon cut her off before she could hang up. “No! Don’t hang up just yet! We’re not having dinner alone
tonight, are we?”
Anna expressed her resignation by saying, “No. I’m having the entire crew over for dinner because
everyone has been working extremely hard today. And | want to reward them all for it.”
“Are you not coming?”
“Sorry, I’m not gonna make it. My assistant will go there on behalf of me.”
“But you’ve promised me that you would have dinner with me this afternoon. I’ve been looking forward
to seeing you for a long time! I’m not going to eat with them.”
Hearing that, Anna had a headache and felt like she was speaking to a kid despite the fact that Leon
was only a few years younger than her.
“I’m sorry, but I’m afraid | won’t be able to make it this time,” Anna said as calmly as she could.
Leon sounded like he was already crying, saying, “Birmingham is far too cold, | just got back from
Melbourne, where it’s still summer. And | forgot to bring my jacket with me.
When Anna heard his voice, she suddenly thought of Scott, whom she
had met many years before in the underground boxing ring.
Back then, he was a quiet kid, and he just stared at her with his clear eyes.
‘Anna was fifteen years old at the time. She told Scott, “Do you wanna leave with me? I’ll get you out of
here, and I’ll be your sister from now on.”
At last, Anna was finally persuaded by Leon into meeting him in the fountain plaza.
It took Anna half an hour to get to the street he was referring to. She walked to the fountain plaza as
soon as she got out of the car and noticed a tall man sitting by the fountain pool. He stood out in a
crowd of people wearing down jackets.
Leon wasn’t wearing a jacket, which surprised Anna. He only wore a sweater and a collar over his face.
He was shivering as he sat on the steps by the pool.
Anna felt sorry for him and took off her jacket, wrapping it around him and saying, “My God! Why don’t
you go wait for me inside the mall? It’s freezing out here!”
Leon sniffled and replied, “There are too many people in the mall, and | was afraid someone would
recognize me.”
Anna understood his concern but was perplexed as to why he was waiting for her on such a cold day.
She asked, “You said we’d eat here, didn’t you? So, what’s the big deal about being recognized by your
fans?”
Then she thought to herself, Well, Leon, you don’t seem to be a smart guy. But… What can | do about
it?
