Chapter 1507
Before they left the suite, Edmund peeked through the peephole to make sure no one was
in the corridor before turning and nodding at Lucas.
It was only then Lucas opened the door and he and Corinne walked out.
Alas, the thing he feared the most happened nonetheless.
At that moment, Sophia's door opened too, and she was wheeling Jeremy out while saying,
"Zachary, I know you're bored with being cooped up in the hotel all day long, but I really
have my hands full with Dad's business. So I can't take you out that often nor do I feel
comfortable letting other people do it. But what I can do is take you to the garden in the
hotel for some fresh air, and I promise I'll take you and Benjamin to travel round the world
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtafter everything is settled here."
Corinne's face immediately froze when she saw the man in the wheelchair.' It's him!' she
thought with fury.
Lucas quickly pulled Corinne back into the suite and slammed the door shut. He did it so
fast that neither Sophia nor Jeremy saw anything. All Sophia heard was the sound of the
door shutting, but when she looked up, she only saw a tightly shut door.
"Zachary, did you hear somebody coming out of the suite opposite ours just now?" she
asked with confusion.
Jeremy looked at the door and shook his head. "No."
Sophia assumed she was just imagining things. "That's weird. I could've sworn I heard
somebody closing the door. I even felt the whoosh of wind..."
"It's got nothing to do with US. Let's go."
The doubt vanished from Sophia's face. She shook her head to clear her mind and said,
"Okay. Benjamin, help Mommy close the door. Let's go take Daddy out for a stroll."
Meanwhile, in the other suite, Lucas was holding Corinne tightly with one hand over her
mouth to stop her from rushing out or making a sound. The worst that could happen then
was having an all-out confrontation with Sophia.
Corinne's eyes reddened with anger. She bit down hard on Lucas' hand.
As much as it hurt him, he still did not let go.
Sunny did not see anything outside, so he did not know what happened." What's going on,
Lucas?" he asked curiously.
Lucas threw him a warning glare to make him shut up.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA chill ran up Sunny's spine and he dared not ask any more questions.
Lucas only let Corinne go after making sure Sophia and Jeremy had gotten into the lift.
Corinne immediately rushed out of the suite, but the hotel corridor was empty by then.
She instinctively chased after them, but Lucas grabbed her by the arm again.
"Calm down, Corinne!"
Corinne paused in her tracks and turned around to look at him with both fury and
disappointment. She flung his hand away.
"You knew he was in that suite with Sophia, yet you chose not to tell me?"
Lucas frowned. "I wasn't going to hide it from you forever. I was waiting for a better time
to tell you."
Corinne scoffed. "Better time, you say? You know I've been looking for him for three years,
so what's a better time? Three years later?"
