My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 647

Chapter 647 Encounter with Danger

I asked Gary if he had made the appointment with Ezekiel through the Xenoses to gauge my thoughts.

'I don't know the specific reason why Mr. Hastings turned down the invitation, but it's pretty obvious that you're trying to keep your distance from him by setting up the appointment through the Xenoses, President Felix,' he replied.

Do I truly want to distance myself from him?

I'm just being cautious about maintaining boundaries between us.

I have no idea how to handle this situation.

Interacting with him is different from how I engage with Christopher.

I can't be entirely open and transparent with him.

I'm afraid of getting too close and giving him false hope.

Moreover, I worry that Shawn might have reservations about it.

Perhaps this is what it feels like to be secretly admired by someone.

So, I'm being cautious in every aspect.

However, the more cautious I am, the more awkward it becomes.

As I was lost in my thoughts, I let out a sigh and turned to Gary, asking what Ezekiel was up to in Eldham. To my surprise, he happened to know and responded, 'Mr. Hastings is seeking revenge.'

Perplexed, I asked, 'Revenge? Revenge for what?'

'I'm not sure about the specifics,' he replied.

'Come and pick me up,' I instructed.

Since it was summer, I changed into a light-yellow long dress. I refrained from curling my hair into tight curls again and settled for loose waves instead.

Before leaving, I knocked on Colin's door. He looked well-groomed and asked, "Are we going to Eldham now?"

"Did you not sleep last night?" I curiously inquired.

"I slept but woke up early and have been playing games since," he replied.

Casually intrigued, I asked, "What game were you playing?"

"Just a small game, something you wouldn't understand," he said.

Instantly, I was rendered speechless by his response.

Shortly after, Gary arrived. We boarded a helicopter to Eldham and reached our destination at 9.00AM.

I turned toward Gary and inquired, "Any leads?"

"The lead was lost last night. To avoid disturbing your rest, we didn't report it to you. We are currently conducting an urgent investigation," he reported.

"Contact Anthony Kalt. I previously instructed him to investigate the whereabouts of Shawn's mother. He should have some leads in his hands," I commanded.

Gary acknowledged and replied, "Understood."

By the afternoon, we finally obtained some leads.

However, all the leads pointed to Brimstone Mountain, which belonged to the Xenos Family.

I was genuinely puzzled. "What are they trying to do?"

"They might be trying to lure you to Brimstone Mountain," Gary suggested.

Who would want to lure me to Brimstone Mountain?!

Oh, wait, it's not about luring me.

It's about Shawn.
