llisa listened to Lilia's warning to her on the phone, and her sour heart must have felt warm.
She didn't want to stay in Surabaya for a few more days, but her physical condition didn't allow her to act recklessly.
"Lilia…"
When llisa called out Lilia's na, her voice choked. "You don't have to worry about , just wait for at ho, and call whenever you need ."
Lilia tried to persuade her, but her mouth was gagged.
She sighed helplessly. "Okay, I was too busy yesterday, and I didn't have ti to chat with you. You should take care of yourself even when you're alone."
"Okay, I'll definitely do."
llisa imdiately hung up the phone, her sour mouth unable to utter another sentence.
Moreover, she was also afraid of expressing her own thoughts, and she did not dare to face her stubbornness calmly.
llisa put her hand on the sink and slowly raised her eyes to look in the mirror.
She moved her eyes slightly down and looked down at her lower belly.
She decided to live alone with this child.
Even if there was only solitude in the future, at least… there was still a baby with her, which could still be said to be her only consolation.
llisa's fingers went up her lower abdon, and as she stretched her eyebrows, a trace of tenderness passed through her eyes.
At first, she thought it was an ectopic pregnancy, but in the end it was a real pregnancy.
For the sake of this child, she gave up smoking and drinking. She bought an old house by the river, planted flowers and herbs every day, waiting for her child's birth.
Maybe this is good.
llisa suppressed her heartbeat and washed her face with water.
When she ca out of the bathroom, she caught a glimpse of the withered bouquet of flowers on the table in front of the window.
The gurgling stream of water outside the window was refracted by the sunlight, and her eyes were irritated.
llisa's chin was still dripping with water, and she walked slowly to the table, gently touching the flower petals with her fingertips.
"Leonard..."
She subconsciously muttered a na that burned in her heart, and her eyes beca misty and gloomy.
Ten minutes later, the awkward llisa finally couldn't stand the obsession in her heart, so she took the phone and called one of her subordinates, Martin.
"Boss?" Martin was surprised when he received a call from llisa.
Recently, his boss said that she needed to concentrate and shut herself up at ho.
So why did she call now?!
Is she bored?
llisa still rubbed her hands on the bouquet, hesitated for a long ti, then asked in a deep voice. "What happened in Bandung?"
Martin suddenly said, "Ah!? The person nad Leonard had an accident, and the wedding was postponed!"
"What?! Accident?!" llisa's tone was excited and nervous.
Martin scratched his head. "Boss, this is really complicated. I'm already in Bandung, but I can't get into the Adler family at all. I've only heard a few rumors, I can't directly confirm them. So I don't know the specifics myself."
llisa squeezed the fingertips of the phone and quietly licked her teeth, her eyes wrinkled.
Martin heard that she wasn't talking, and added, "I don't know what happened to the man. But during this ti, I heard that doctors were always in and out of the Adlers' house. Could he be seriously ill?"
Hearing this, llisa narrowed her eyes, the corners of her mouth turned pale, and said, "Okay." She then hung up.
She's going to Bandung!
After suppressing her mind for so long, especially at the aftermath of Lilia's wedding, the urge to see Leonard was so difficult.
llisa gritted her teeth and opened the photo album hesitantly while holding the phone.
Inside, there are still pre-wedding photos of Leonard and his fiancée.
These few nights, she kept looking at this photo, her heart beca dull and sad.
Obviously, she had rejected Lilia's suggestion, but now, hearing the news of his failed marriage, and the many doctors entering and leaving the Adlers' ho, llisa's heart began to fall into turmoil.
She opened the album and focused on the photo.
He was still very handso, tall and indifferent, staring blankly at the cara.
And the woman standing beside him, holding his arm with one hand with a faint and embarrassed smile on the corner of her mouth looked so beautiful.
llisa looked at the photo for a mont, then closed it briefly, rubbing her sore forehead.
But she couldn't help it and took another look!
Think of it as the last one!
After looking at it, she had nothing to do anymore.
In her heart, a faint voice kept trying to bewitch her.
Half an hour later, llisa went to a nearby hospital to et Doctor Verdy from the Departnt of Obstetrics and Gynecology for the treatnt of morning sickness. After that, she took a plane to Bandung.
...
Bandung is the largest tropolitan city in West Java which also makes it the capital of the province.
At four that afternoon, llisa arrived in Bandung.
She had never been here before, and as she stepped out of the cabin, a cold wind blew against her face, making it a little difficult to breathe.
She heard that there was a lot of advancent in Bandung.
Developnt in all aspects always connects the many interests of the groups.
This situation is not unusual, even in places like Jakarta, conflicts of interest are very common.
llisa knows Bandung's climate well, and as she walks down the alley, she takes off her coat.
She was wearing only a loose white t-shirt, light blue jeans, and a pair of sneakers.
Such clothes, mixed with the crowd, will not make her stand out.
She checked the Adler family, but she barely got any useful clues.
It is said that the Adler family has long been away from the world, but still holds an important position in Bandung.
llisa stepped onto the shuttle bus on the tarmac and leaned against the corner. As she turned on the phone, a ssage appeared at the top of the screen.
llisa looked at the sender's na, her brows furrowed, and her expression changed slightly.
This is a voice ssage, and the tone after processing the voice change sounds a bit terrible.
The man said, "Did you go to Bandung?"
llisa listened to the voice, and stopped moving for a while.
She never doubted the man's investigative abilities. Over the past few years, all of her journeys and routes couldn't be hidden from that person.
llisa sighed softly, and after erasing the voice note, she ignored it.
It was true that the other party saved her, but over the years, she had done quite a lot for that person.
Even if he wanted her to return the favor, there must be a limit.
The other party used Leonard's life as a bargaining chip to threaten her, but right now, she couldn't control that.
llisa took the needle out of her backpack with cold brows, then replaced it with a new phone card three or two tis.
Currently, there are a lot of passengers on the shuttle bus.
Everyone carried suitcases and bags, so were traveling and so were on business trips.
"Sorry, sorry, let pass." At this mont, a petite girl carrying her luggage got into the shuttle bus and ca to llisa's side.
She was at llisa's shoulder level, and she lifted her head and grinned.. "I heard soone say that there was an impending catastrophe in the world."
