Chapter: 137 But upon closer observation, there must be a reason behind the lavishness displayed here.
Millie scanned her surroundings and noted that outside, daylight still prevailed, while within the building, the lights dazzled. The corridors twisted and turned, spanning seven floors with an abundance of rooms.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Finding Leon amidst this place would prove to be a daunting task. Millie stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the top floor.
Based on her assumptions, the Thomas family held significant influence, and naturally, their members would occupy the most prestigious rooms on the uppermost floor. She expected to find them there.
When she arrived on the top floor corridor, Millie felt a sense of disorientation. The hallway appeared vacant, and after taking a few hesitant steps forward, she halted.
She attempted to open a nearby room door, but it remained firmly shut. Leaning closer, she strained to listen, yet the soundproofing was impeccable, muffling any sounds from within.
With a sigh, Millie retreated and found herself pacing back and forth in the empty corridor.
Suddenly, a door ahead swung open, catching Millie’s attention. To her surprise, it was Leon emerging from the room. Seizing the opportunity, she swiftly followed after him.
As Leon entered the restroom, Millie hastened inside, narrowly avoiding a collision with him. He turned around and was taken aback by who he saw. “Millie?”
She hastily fixed her disheveled hair and put on a wide grin.
“Leon, what a pleasant surprise! You're here too?”
“In the men’s restroom? Is that really a coincidence?” Leon asked coldly.
The mention of the “men’s restroom” reverberated in Millie’s mind, instantly alerting her to the blunder. She glanced to the side and noticed a row of pristine urinals, a flush of embarrassment creeping up her cheeks.
Nevertheless, she was determined to accomplish her mission, so she mustered a sheepish smile. “| apologize for the mistake, but it’s alright. | need to discuss something important with you. Even though we're in the men’s
restroom, and it’s quite awkward, there’s no one else around, so it shouldn’t be a problem. | wanted to talk to you about my grandmother’s condition.”
However, Millie was appalled to see that Leon wasn’t paying any attention to her words.
Instead, he proceeded to unbuckle his belt and prepare to relieve himself.
“L really need to use the restroom right now. If you don’t mind watching, | don’t mind either,” Leon remarked. Millie was left speechless, utterly taken aback by his behavior.
In the midst of the awkwardness, a man stepped out from one of the stalls and was startled to see Millie standing there. Feeling deeply embarrassed, Millie swiftly tured on her heels and hurried out of the restroom.
