Chapter 873 Being Attacked (Part One)
Howard and Zed were chatting while eating in the front hall. Although the age difference between them was much, they had a good conversation under the premise that Zed deliberately flattered Howard and Howard also intended to get close to Zed.
Rona excused herself to check whether the soup was ready or not and left the front hall for the kitchen. When she reached a corner where there were few people, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her from a corner.
He was in a black suit and wore sunglasses. There was a long scar on his left face. He stared at Rona through the sunglasses and said, "Miss."
"Ah, you scared me." Rona was still in shock. She patted her chest and complained. Then she looked around nervously. She knew that there were surveillance cameras everywhere in the Castle of Jordon. She couldn't let anyone see them. Then she scolded in a low voice, "Kelvin, what are you doing here?"
Although Kelvin Ni wore sunglasses, Rona could still feel his burning eyes staring at her face. She looked around subconsciously for fear of being seen together.
Looking at the careful look of Rona, Kelvin's heart was full of bitterness. He was the first hatchet man beside Zed. He had been with Zed for more than ten years. From the first time he saw Rona, he had fallen in love with her deeply.
But he knew that he didn't deserve Rona, so he could only protect her in secret. As long as Rona asked him to do anything, he would do it.
"I just want to see how you are doing." Kelvin said in a low voice. He knew that his humble identity didn't deserve her. He just wanted to see if she lived a good life.
Rona was exasperated and said, "Now you see it? How about the thing I asked you to do? "
"Don't worry, Miss. I have arranged someone to go there." Kelvin said respectfully.
"Well, remember to find someone who is agile. I don't want to see you failed." A hint of cruelty flashed through Rona's eyes when she said this.
"Don't worry, miss. The two men have been worked for me for many years. They are good at fighting." Kelvin said quietly.
"That's good. Remember not to appear in front of me in the future. If anything happens, just text me. I will call you back when I have time." After saying that, Rona passed Kelvin and went to the kitchen behind.
Kelvin looked at her enchanting back. She would only say a few words to him when she needed him, and then leave in a hurry. Although he knew that she was taking advantage of him, he was still willing to do so.
Kelvin murmured to Rona's back, "Miss, I will try my best to help you do anything you want to do."
The sunshine outside the window shone on Leona's face through the curtain. Leona rubbed her eyes in a daze and looked at the phone beside her. It was already noon. No wonder the sunshine was so dazzling.
The cold quilt next to her showed that Greg had already left. She reached out to touch her still flat belly, and a bitter and relieved smile appeared at the corners of her mouth. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Now her goal was finally achieved. It was time for her to go back. Eden was still waiting for her at home. They hadn't seen each other for so many days. The little guy must have missed her?
At the thought of Eden's round face, Leona couldn't help feeling happy. On the other hand, he was supposed to be carefree, but he couldn't play as freely as other children. He could only lie on the bed
every day and smell the pungent smell of disinfectant, which made her heart ache.
Thinking of this, she couldn't stay here any longer. She had to go back to Eden as soon as possible. She took out her phone and thought for a while, but finally put it down.
At first, she wanted to call Greg and tell him that she was going back home. But now, he had just taken back his company and was going to prepare for the wedding. He must be very busy, right?
Although Greg had been with her these days, she could feel his tiredness, but he didn't say anything.
Especially now she was pregnant. If she told him directly that she wanted to go back, he might not agree easily. So she left first and sent him a message before boarding, which could also be regarded as telling him.
Leona didn't intend to run away. In fact, the current situation didn't allow her to do so. As for the future, she wouldn't have time to think about it until Eden fully recovered.
Bang! Bang! Bang! When Leona just finished freshening up, she heard a knock on the door. It should be the delivering staff of the hotel at this time, right? Greg didn't need to knock when he came in. He had a room card in his hand.
While wiping her wet hair, Leona walked towards the door. The door was opened, and a hotel waiter with his head down pushed a dining car in. "Miss, this is your lunch. Enjoy yourself."
Leona noticed that the waiter today was much more burly than usual. He kept his hat down as if he was afraid of being seen by others.
Although it was an ordinary sentence, it made Leona scared. Leona didn't know if it was her illusion.
At this time, the dining car had been pushed into the room. The waiter showed the dishes one by one. All kinds of delicate dishes made people drool at a glance.
"Miss, please have lunch." The waiter did not leave directly, but stood respectfully aside and waited.
Leona's hair was still dripping. She wanted to have lunch after drying the hair up. She said to the waiter, "Put it down first. You can go ahead with your work."
However, the waiter didn't go out after she finished her words. Didn't he hear her? Frowning, Leona raised her voice and said again, "I said you can go out first. I'll call someone to clean it up after I finish eating."
However, the man was still unmoved. Feeling something was wrong, Leona could not help but step back to the inner room.
The man sensed Leona's intention. He raised his head and looked at her fiercely. He pointed at a bowl of soup in the dining car and said gloomily, "Eat this soup."
"No." Although the man didn't say what the soup was, there was no need to say it at the moment. Seeing that the door of the inner room was not far away from her, Leona quickly turned around and ran inside.
As long as she escaped inside, she would be safe. It would take the man some time to open such a thick door, and she could take advantage of this time to call Greg.
Just as Leona was about to move, the man also moved over in an instant, with the bowl of soup in his hand rushing towards her. The man was tall and strong, and he took two steps behind Leona. He was about to catch her.
