Chapter 117

Linda looked at me for a few seconds, then cracked a smile. No worries, I just feel like have a connection. I’ve met him before, but we don’t know each

other well.

Her facial expression didn’t match up with someone seeing a stranger.

I didn’t probe further just returned a smile. Indeed, the world is neither too big nor too small. Those who are meant to meet will eventually bump into

each other.

Linda went silent for a bit, then got up to take a bath.

I laid in bed with my phone, pondering whether I should ask Russel about it, but decided against it.

Even if they knew each other, that was their past. It had nothing to do with me. Why would I stick my nose into their business?

So I reached out to Orlando, filled him in on some issues regarding the cooperation we discussed today.

Orlando replied: You’re right, these minor issues might seem trivial, but they could cause trouble if you don’t clearly state them in the contract

I replied Cool, any suggestions? I’ll be talking to Mr. Ferris again in the next couple of days.

Orlando sent a lengthy voice message. After carefully listening to it, I had a pretty good idea.

Just when I was about to doze off, Linda came out of the shower and quietly laid down on the bed next to me.

I woke up next morning, starving.
