Predestined Marriage

Chapter 268 A Million, No Bargain

Hoover City is a big international metropolis.

To average people, finding someone in the city was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

However, Leonardo was different. He had power, influence, financial resources and many subordinates at his command.

Finding Summer was a piece of cake.

She couldn't use her cell phone or stay in a hotel.

Therefore, she found a small guesthouse that didn't require an ID card.

The guesthouse was damp and dark. The white sheets had yellowish stains and the bathroom was dirty.

Summer lay on the bed without taking off her clothes.

The room wasn't noise-proof. She could hear pedestrians talking and cars honking.

It was the first night without having Leonardo around. Summer couldn't sleep.

Afraid that Leonardo would barge in, she was dizzy but could fall asleep. She lay on the bed until dawn, half-asleep.

She felt very tired after a night of poor sleep.

Worse still, there was no hot water in the bathroom.

Summer gritted her teeth and washed her face with cold water. She packed up her things and checked out.

She couldn't stay in the same place for too long.

She knew Leonardo too well.

Leaving the guesthouse, Summer went straight to the bus station.

The area was close to the suburbs. It used to be a small town near Hoover City, which was expanded. The town was merged into the city. However, without any city planning project, the town remained to be as underdeveloped as before.

Not far from the guesthouse was a bus station where she could buy a ticket without an ID card. She got to know it yesterday.
