Chapter 229

Buy It

Joseph's gaze was endlessly deep.

Staring at the storage box that Lucille had handed him, he was stunned for a few seconds before regaining his senses.

If he remembered correctly, Lone Shadow had bought that box after specifically telling the driver to stop on their way back to Niterol City's airport when they finished their mission.

There was a Deep Lotus in the storage box.

Joseph stretched out his hand. In order to verify his suspicions, he opened the lid of the storage box without hesitation.

Water vapor filled the room, and a Deep Lotus was lying in it.

Because it had been carefully taken care of, the lotus was well preserved, and

it was still fresh and beautiful.

All of a sudden, memories from that afternoon surfaced in Joseph's mind.

In the remote and uninhabited wilderness, Lone Shadow, who was sitting in the back of the off-road vehicle, suddenly yelled at the driver to stop. Then, she climbed over the stone bridge and jumped into the lake without hesitation just to get the Deep Lotus. She was drenched and looked like a total mess.

When he offered to pay for the Deep Lotus, Lonely Shadow refused without hesitation, saying that the flower was very important to her and that she could not give it to him.

It turned out that the lotus was picked for him.

Joseph was a little dazed. Lucille and Lone Shadow's slender figures overlapped in front of him. Gradually, they became one person in his mind.

It turned out that Lucille was Lone Shadow, and Lone Shadow was Lucille.

No wonder he found Lone Shadow a little familiar the first time he saw her.

So that's how it was.

A cluster of flames ignited in Joseph's heart. When he thought of how Lucille had plunged into the water to pluck the Deep Lotus for him, the fire in his heart. blazed brighter. Lucille's face was full of confusion.

She saw Joseph's constantly changing expressions and could tell that his eyes were full of emotions. There was a light shining in his gaze, but it was hidden so deeply that no one could figure out what he was thinking. What was going on?
