Chapter 316

Yuliana’s thoughts were a little scattered, but she quickly pulled herself together. As she lifted her gaze, her eyes met Christopher’s. Compared to that night he came to Oceanview Apartment, he appeared neither fatter nor thinner, but there was an air of desolation and vicissitudes around him.

The stubble on Christopher’s chin was showing, and he didn’t shave it. He probably hadn’t had a good rest as well, so he looked exhausted with dark circles under his eyes.

The two of them stared at each other silently for a while.

Zayne was sorting out the documents for the case and failed to notice the subtle interaction between the two.

Christopher’s chapped lips parted, and with a hoarse voice, he uttered, “Why are you here?”

Hearing this, Zayne looked up at Christopher and glanced at Yuliana.

Yuliana’s eyes were calm. Her face betrayed no hint of emotion as she responded, “I have something to discuss with you.”

After that, Yuliana didn’t speak further.

When Zayne finished sorting out the case files, he began to ask Christopher about the case. But what Christopher said was more or less the same as what he told Zayne and Layla when they met the day before.

Zayne felt that there was no need to waste his breath going through everything again. He said to Yuliana, “I need to use the restroom.”

That was just an excuse. He could see that Yuliana wanted to talk to Christopher alone, so he found an excuse to give them some privacy.
