Leah saw four young men approaching their table in front of the convenience store. They dressed like rascals and had hair of different colors. They had spanners and steel rods in their hands as they walked toward Leah and Regina while teasing them.

They knew Regina since they called her name from far away.

Leah frowned when she saw them. The gangsters saw Leah as well. Leah’s expensive handbag and beauty attracted their attention.

“Oh, Regina. Do you know this pretty girl? Is she a friend of yours in Colors?” The gangsters walked toward them, and one of them sat in an empty spot beside them while looking at Leah. He wanted to reach out and touch Leah’s face, but Leah moved away. She looked at the gangster with disgust. Her cold eyes were like Han’s.

The gangster was stunned and withdrew his hand.

“John Cox.” Regina looked away. It was obvious that she knew them.

Regina called the red-haired gangster who sat down John Cox.

John withdrew his hand and put a leg up on the bench while stretching his other leg outwards. He grinned and said, “Seems like you still remember me. After you went missing for such a long time, we thought you married into a rich family.”

The other three men laughed with him when he said that.

Regina glanced at Leah. She lowered her head and said timidly, “Sorry, John. I wasn’t hiding from you purposely. I really don’t have enough money. When I have enough money, I’ll return it to you.”
