After listening to her words, it was even harder for me to reject her. I could only agree helplessly. "Alright. Send me the address. I'll go over now."
"Alright, alright. I'm sending it to you now. Please, you have to come," Heidi said in a worried tone.
Theo went out early in the morning and he could not send me there. I could only hail a taxi.
When I arrived at the address Heidi gave me, it turned out to be a restaurant. She was standing at the door waiting for me.
She was only wearing a thin jacket in this weather. I felt cold just looking at her. I walked over and saw bruises on the corner of her eyes. I frowned. "Did he beat you again?"
Heidi lowered her head and said with unease, "Let’s go in. It’s cold out here."
We entered the restaurant and found a place to sit. I put my bag on the chair beside me. I smiled and said, ” We've been to this restaurant before."
"Yes." Heidi was holding a cup filled with warm water. There was a faint smile on her face. "It’s rare that we found a restaurant that suits both our tastes."
Although we were always busy with work back then,
Heidi was happy. She was vibrant and energetic every day with high hopes for her future.
However, now....
I would be lying if I said I did not feel sad for her." Heidi, if there's anything you'd like to tell me, just say i t."
Heidi bit her lip. It took her a while to speak." President Lane, do you still remember when you were kidnapped at the underground parking lot?"
My expression changed at once. "How do you know about that?"
