Chapter 293 Not Paying for His Mistake

Amelie didn’t look up. She forced herself to not pay any attention to Leo’s actions.

However, that person seemed to be giving a play-by-play for her benefit as the voice kept ringing out beside her ear. She couldn’t even hit pause to stop it.

“He donated a large sum of money toward the maintenance and restoration works here!”

“I can’t believe it.”

“He doesn’t seem like the type who’d be interested in this.”

“Do people like him frequent these places to make wishes? I guess things aren’t easy for the wealthy either.”

The crowd started discussing fervently.

Fiona nudged Amelie. “Share some insider knowledge with me?”

“Why would I have any insider knowledge?” Amelie knew that Leo wouldn’t do something for no reason.

She figured he was doing this for Melissa’s sake.

Melissa was a fairly spiritual person who had a lot of respect for ancient beliefs. She often visited such sites and make wishes.

It’s as if she was someone who lived in the past.

While everyone was talking, the director strode over. “Thanks to Mr. Alston, the committee running the historical site has invited us to stay at a special guesthouse on-site. We’ve had quite a lot of bad luck lately, so we can all spend a bit more time here and make a few wishes.”

Since the director had made the arrangements, everyone else didn’t say anything. A committee member led the way.

There was a smaller building behind the main hall that was built in the same architectural style. It looked quaint and peaceful.

Everyone was assigned to twin sharing rooms.

The rooms looked old and were sparsely decorated, but they were clean.

The smell of incense lingered in the air as gentle music filled the background. It was a calming combination.

After finishing the meal that was prepared by the historical site committee, Amelie walked out of the building alone.

She strolled along the pine and cypress trees near the guesthouse and felt the cool breeze against her skin.

It’s nice here. Even the temperature’s lower.

She quite enjoyed walking along the narrow path and listening to the rustling sounds around her.

She slowly closed her eyes and stretched her arms out.

It felt as if her soul could roam freely like a bird soaring through the skies.

After a while, she felt completely relaxed. She took a deep breath and opened her eyes.
