Chapter 160 Confrontation

Maggie was already aboard her flight at this moment; her phone had switched to airplane mode, and she was unaware of Lucas messages.

Roughly twelve hours later, the plane began its descent.

Maggie closed her book, her eyes a bit blurry from the prolonged reading.

She tidied up her belongings, turning her gaze towards the window.

From high above, the sprawling city resembled a checkered board of dazzling lights. At night, it revealed a different kind of beauty.

After a while, as the plane taxied, passengers began turning on their phones, and Maggie was no exception.

Mia had promised to pick her up, so Maggie planned to call her first.

When Nathael called, she hung up abruptly, completely forgetting to tell Lucas about it.

Thinking of this, Maggie rubbed her nose, feeling a little guilty.

When she opened the chat page, the content made her freeze.

Maggie’s eyes drifted to a photo of a man with his eyes closed, lying in a pool of blood, without even reading what Lucas had written.

Her pupils shrank as she quickly opened the picture.
