Chapter 1173 A Trap for Wynter
Tobias was typing so fast that Wynter suspected he had honed this skill by arguing with internet trolls.
Wynter couldn’t even get a word in edgewise as Tobias flooded the chat. His typing speed was even faster than hers, despite her being a hacker, leaving her at a loss for words.
Toby the Celebrity: No, I don’t feel comfortable with Wynter being there alone. I should have taken the train, too!
Wynter freed her hand to reply. “No need to worry about me. Albert is here, too.”
Toby the Celebrity: Albert has never been in a relationship himself, so what does he know?
CEO Albert: Tobias, don’t you think you’re getting too full of yourself lately?
Tobias furiously typed with his head hung low. His concern for Wynter was consuming him.
Unbeknownst to them, a mysterious person at the airport was watching Tobias intently, their gaze filled with an unsettling fervor. It was the kind of look that seemed ready to erupt into hatred–fueled chaos at any moment.
Only after Tobias entered the VIP lounge did the person look away. As they retreated into the restroom, they flashed a sinister smile at the mirror.
They weren’t in a rush. Anyway, there would be plenty of opportunities for them to make a move in Hawford.
Meanwhile, the sound of a saxophone playing could be heard at a café with classic decor in Hawford. The place was filled with the aroma of coffee and the sweet, caramel scent of freshly baked bread.
The pastry most famous here was the palmier with the traditional taste of Shanga, attracting many foreigners to try it out. However, due to the café’s membership–only policy, not all tourists could enter.
Having existed through monumental periods and now standing for over a century,
the cafe had a historical significance.
The rich ladies of Hawford liked to come here for afternoon tea. Almost every couch here had Hermès crocodile leather bags and tea sets for drinking tea, combining
aesthetics from different countries.
There was a unique charm to the combination of white porcelain peony flowers and
piping hot Earl Grey tea.
