Chapter 363 Encounter
To my surprise, I slept rather heavily. I didn't wake up until it was over 10:00 am. Jack had always woken up early and on time, but he only woke up after me. He checked the time and immediately rose to his feet, Then, I saw Astrid, whose jaw dropped, as she stared at us with unblinking eyes. She looked like she was ready for some hot gossip.

Jack merely watched quietly as we ate, but his stare was making my head feel numb, I reached our and took another sandwich. "Do you want some?" "Sure." Jack took the sandwich and started manching it too

The whole thing didn't end until noon, and Jack rushed back to his company. Meanwhile, Astrid took me "Why does it take postgraduate students to finish their studies in two long years, Eva? I'm dying to go back to our country." For the sandwiches? "What's wrong with that?" Astrid pinched me gently, and I returned the favor. All of a sudden, I thought I was quite lucky. At the very least, I managed to lind good friends everywhere I went
However, the wonderful feeling lasted less than five seconds.
"Eva!" We suddenly heard Leonard's voice when we arrived at the hospital's garden. I followed the voice and looked over. That was when I saw him holding Amelia's arm and looking at me with a stunned expression Amelia's expression turned grim
