Sierra Moore was shocked when she heard Frederick Latham's voice.
Remembering that she had indeed left for a long time, she felt a little apologetic in her heart. "Mr. Latham, I'm sorry. I happened to meet a friend and we chatted for a while."
Frederick Latham smiled and said in an understanding manner, "I saw that you have gone for so long. I came to find you because I was worried about you. I didn't disturb you from reminiscing with your friend, did I?"
Sierra Moore shook her head and looked at Jack Lee with eyes full of reluctance. When her gaze fell on his arm, she felt a slight pain in her heart.
She never thought that Jackie, who doted on her, would belong to someone else. This feeling was really bad.
Six years ago, she wanted to ask him why two people who loved each other could not be together.
But now, it was completely meaningless.
Sierra Moore forced a smile and said, "Jackie, I am really happy to see you again. I have a friend waiting for me. I will go first. Goodbye!"
Before they left, she couldn't help but glance at Jack Lee and Emily Mason again before turning to Frederick Latham and saying, "I'm done talking. Let's go!"
Frederick Latham nodded. He saw that Jack Lee's lips moved. It was obvious that Jack Lee still had something to say. However, Sierra Moore had already turned around and left, so Frederick Latham had no choice but to follow.
He pondered in his heart., "Didn't James say that this girl already had a keeper? Could it be that after the keeper left, the pet would find a new lover?"
As he was thinking of the person that James mentioned, the corners of Frederick Latham's lips slowly curved up. He had seen Sierra Moore crying when she turned around and left. It seemed that she had a deep relationship with this "Jackie"!
He couldn't eat anymore. When they got back, Frederick Latham asked the waiter to bring the bill.
After leaving the restaurant, Sierra Moore apologized to him with red eyes. "Sorry, I haven't returned home from abroad for many years. I didn't expect to meet my old friend here."
Frederick Latham didnt really care about it and he made a gentlemanly gesture, "Where are you going? I'll send you there."
Sierra Moore wanted to refuse, but then she heard Frederick Latham say, "You are Sophie's friend. If she finds out that I left you in the restaurant and left by myself, she will definitely be angry with me later."
Sierra Moore's heart was a mess, so she did not insist on refusing him.
Along the way, she looked like her mind was unhinged. Frederick Latham sent her to the hotel. She thanked him and got out of the car.
After she entered the elevator, her tears silently flowed down. She wiped them with the back of her hands, but the more she wiped, the more she cried. She just could not stop.
Back in the room, the exhausted girl fell to the floor and looked at the ceiling with a pair of dull eyes.
In fact, she did not feel much sadness in her heart. No matter how difficult the day was, she had already gone through it.
She just felt a little wronged. Perhaps there were some regrets. She couldn't explain more. In short, she felt very depressed. It was as if her heart was blocked by a ball of cotton, making her unable to breathe.
She had always thought that she and Jack Lee loved each other so much. Even if she had been alone for the past few years, she had never forgotten about him.
In the past ten years, he was not only the one she liked but also her family.
So seeing him with Emily Mason today was still a big blow to her.
What troubled her the most was Jack Lee's words, "Should I know you?" This was more hurtful than any words. She thought that perhaps he had really made up his mind to forget her!
When the phone in the room rang, Sierra Moore remembered that she had forgotten to charge her mobile phone since yesterday. The phone was called by Sophie Lucas. The call was from Sophie, who was undoubtedly calling to see what she thought of Frederick Latham.
"Sierra Moore, is this guy I introduced to you handsome enough?" She asked excitedly, but she found that Sierra did not respond.
Having been friends for so many years, Sophie Lucas would never think that Sierra Moore was silent because she was shy. Sophie Lucas realized that something was wrong and asked her, "Sierra Moore, what happened? Are you feeling unwell?"
It was rare for Miss Lucas to be so gentle. Hearing her concern, Sierra Moore finally could not help but cry out.
She cried so hard that Sophie was frightened and said to her, "Don't just cry! What happened? Did someone bully you?"
Sierra Moore kept crying and did not speak. Sophie Lucas had a bad temper and soon became impatient. She scolded, "Did Frederick Latham bully you? This bastard, does he think he is so great because he is handsome? I will go and settle the score with him!"
"No, he didn't bully me."
Although Sierra Moore felt very uncomfortable in her heart, her mind was still clear. She felt very good about Frederick Latham and didn't want to implicate him. She just had other things on her mind.
She had just come back this time for a few short days, but her life here was full of mess. She was suspecting that coming back this time was the wrong decision.
Especially after seeing Jack Lee today, she was even more certain that she should not have come back. Now she just wanted to leave this place.
"Sofi, I want to go back to France."
Although Sophie Lucas did not know what had happened to Sierra Moore, she could tell that Sierra Moore had really made up her mind this time. After a moment of silence, Sophie Lucas asked, "When do you want to leave?"
Being considerate at this moment, Miss Lucas knew that it was not suitable to ask Sierra Moore for a reason. This made Sierra Moore very touched.
Sierra Moore put her arm on her eyes to cover the dazzling light. Her lips moved and she choked, "The sooner, the better."
"Okay, leave this to me. Remember to turn on your mobile phone. I'll call you when I'm done."
Sophie Lucas hung up the phone. Her car made a sudden turn on the road. She had wanted to find Sierra Moore for dinner, but now it seemed that she had to go home first.
Miss Lucas was very efficient in action. She used some unknown methods, and then after only one night, she called Sierra Moore to get up and pack up.
"The helicopter is ready. I will pick you up at the hotel at nine o'clock."
Sierra Moore was sleeping soundly. She only woke up a little after receiving the call, so she got up to pack up.
Although she still had many questions, such as why Jack Lee said those words.
Now, her heart was very fragile, and she did not want to face this city that brought her too many negative memories. She thought to herself, "Please forgive me for choosing to escape again."
She felt lightheaded for the past two days. She felt that her brain was not working. When Sierra Moore packed her luggage and went out, she looked at her mobile phone. It was only eight o'clock. She and Sophie Lucas had agreed to meet at the entrance of the hotel at nine o'clock. It was still early.
Perhaps because she was in a hurry to leave this place, she did not have the mood to go to the restaurant for breakfast. She directly went downstairs to the front desk to check out.
The phone screen lit up. It was a text message from Sophie Lucas.
[Did you get up? I am ready to go out.]
Sierra Moore immediately replied to her, [Yes. Drive carefully on the road!]
After sending the message, Sierra Moore opened the contacts on the mobile phone. There were only three numbers in it.
Sophie Lucas, Nathan Shaw, and Jack Lee. She was familiar with the last number, but in the past six years, she never dared to call it.
[Jackie, I'm leaving. I'm afraid we will never meet again this time! Please forgive me for being willful for the last time. I don't want to bless you!]
Sierra Moore felt that she must have gone crazy after sending this message for some reason.
She stood alone at the entrance of the hotel with her luggage. She looked at her mobile phone every few minutes. She didn't know if she was waiting for the call or looking at the time, but she felt that time was dragging today.
At the corner of the street outside the hotel, a black luxury car was parked.
The car had parked here a long time ago. The person inside did not get out of the car but looked at the hotel opposite through the window.
At the entrance of the hotel, Sierra Moore was still waiting for Sophie out of boredom.
It was a little cold in the early autumn. Today, she wore a loose beige sweater and a pair of light-colored jeans. On the white canvas shoes, there was a picture of a Mickey Mouse. Her face was white and clean without any makeup, and she looked like a student.
Her hair was very beautiful. Her long hair hung down, blocking half of her face. She stood by the side of the road, kicking the stones at her feet with her head down. She glanced at her mobile phone from time to time and looked at the intersection from time to time. She seemed to be waiting for someone.
No matter how slow the time passed, it would eventually reach the end.
It was already nine o'clock. Sophie Lucas hadn't arrived yet. Sierra Moore didn't call her to hurry her. She just looked up at the sky. She didn't know what she was thinking.
The mobile phone in her pocket vibrated. Sierra Moore thought it was Sophie Lucas. She took it out and looked at it. The name jumping on the screen surprised her, but she felt more panicked.
Her hands froze for a few seconds, then she immediately hung up the phone.
The call was from Nathan Shaw. If he had not called, she would have almost forgotten about this man.
That phone call instantly brought back a flood of memories from that night, and the words the man had said before leaving made her feel scared. She looked around, hoping that Sophie Lucas would come quickly.
After being hung up, Nathan Shaw was not surprised. He sneered and called her again. This time, the phone was also hung up.
Seeing the gloomy expression on the boss's face from the rearview mirror, the driver asked, "Mr. Shaw, do you want me to bring Miss Moore over?"
"No need."
The corners of Nathan Shaw's mouth curled up. The strange smile on his face made others shudder. He knocked on the windowsill with his fingers. "A disobedient girl should be taught a lesson. Ken, drive the car over."
"Yes, Mr. Shaw."
When the sound of the brakes came on, Sierra Moore was delighted. When she turned around and saw that it was not Sophie Lucas's car, she felt a little disappointed.
But soon, she couldn't care less about this because she found that the car looked familiar.
She had only been back for a few days, and the number of cars she had remembered could be counted on one hand. It was easy to imagine what kind of car she found familiar. Soon, she remembered whose car this was.
The door to the driver's seat was pushed open, and a man with a stiff face walked out of the car. Sierra Moore recognized him at a glance. It was the man who followed Nathan Shaw last time in Dark Night.
"Miss Moore, please get in the car!"
Ken came over and wanted to take her luggage. Sierra Moore hurriedly used her hands to protect her luggage. She thought to herself, "I have just hung up the phone of the bastard and his subordinate is already here. How could there be such a coincidence?
"Could it be that the bastard installed a monitor on my body, and he knew that I'm going to run away today, so he sent someone to catch me?"
She was thinking that no matter how bold Ken was, he would not dare to attack her on the streets. Only then did Sierra Moore feel a little relieved. She straightened her neck and said to him, "I have nothing to do with your boss. Get out of the way, or I'll call the police!"
