Rebirth Into My Second Chance

Chapter 234

I had just stepped out of the Hilton family mansion when I saw Richard's Maybach parked there, waiting for me. As I emerged, he rolled down his window, his figure backlit by the sun, making it hard for me to see his face clearly. All I could make out was his white suit, a testament to his current obsession. The bodyguard opened the door for me, but I hesitated to approach, even though I knew I had intentionally lured Richard here.
