บท 527: The Game Had Ended

Standing by the window of the lounge, Leslie threw her gaze outside. Her eyes kept staring in the direction of the main gate, waiting for Calix to return from Vilux. Her figure was faintly reflected on the glass panel.

The time was still early, the clock had just struck eight-fifty in the evening. 

Lifting her eyes, Leslie stared at the dark sky, illuminated by the moonlight. The sky was cloudless tonight, showing a clear view of the atmosphere.

'He should be back soon, right?'

Leslie received a text from Calix just now, informing of his return soon. The man didn't tell her anything about Nicholas. She assumed he wanted to tell her personally once he was home.

Calliope's voice echoed from behind. The little dumpling was animatedly talking to Director Li through the video call. The orphanage director's face was clearly displayed on the tablet screen.
