Chapter 373 Melissa Putting up a Show

It was nighttime when the hot water in the shower created a mist that filled up the room.

Running water fell on Leo's head and formed streams down his face as it flowed down his chest, torso, and legs before finally splashing against the tiles.

Leo's skin was as red as a beet after standing under such a hot shower for an hour. Yet, he repeatedly applied soap as he harshly scrubbed his body and showed no signs of stopping anytime soon.

The next day, the government had not retracted the vog alert. So, Steven called Amelie early in the morning and advised her from flying back due to worry.

Lumaria was a country with a great natural environment. Yet, a volcano suddenly erupted, creating severe volcanic smog that affected a huge part of the area.

Even though Amelie desperately wanted to return, she had no choice but to patiently wait for it to subside.

After she freshened herself up, she donned appropriate makeup and conducted a few online meetings.

It was already noon in a blink of an eye. Just as she was thinking about grabbing some food to eat outside, Toby gave her a call, saying, "Didn't you say you wanted to go for coffee? I'm already downstairs."

She immediately pulled apart the curtain to see a race car parked outside and a man in white leaning against it.

Even though she couldn't see his face clearly, the signature white clothes and how he carried himself all pointed toward Toby.

Amelie couldn't very well tell him that she was just being polite yesterday. So, she answered, "Sure."

She didn't let him wait long and appeared downstairs a few minutes later. "Where are we going for coffee?"

Toby tilted his sculpted face and said mysteriously, "You'll know. Get in."

So, Amelie didn't push for an answer and got in the car.

Toby brought her to a private kitchen that was known for its quality for lunch before pointing in a direction and telling her, "There's a good coffee shop down this street."

He didn't start the car but motioned with his head asking silently for Amelie to walk with him. And so she did.
