Chapter 827

Upon seeing Leopold driving one-handed due to a bandaged hand, Thalassa expressed her concern, “Why you are driving while you are still recovering from the hurt?”

Seemingly prepared for the question, Leopold replied, “The victim’s family is making quite a scene. Being the direct hire of those two workers, it’s my responsibility to figure out the exact cause of the accident. I can’t just sit around in the hospital.”

He spoke without diverting his gaze from the road ahead, not even to look at Thalassa.

Thalassa nodded in understanding. Leopold should also be investigating the incident at Leossa Electronics, she thought.

Confused, Thalassa asked, “I still have to go to work. Why did you bring me here?”

Leopold opened the car door for her, saying, “This is our alma mater. It’s been a while since you’ve been here, hasn’t it? A trip down memory lane won’t
