After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 505

Chapter 505 Meet Him Again

Manuel was sitting on the couch and waiting for her.

As she got dressed, Manuel stood up and said, "Come on, let me walk you out."

Susan was a bit surprised.

As far as she knew about him recently, he should have sat by and done nothing however late it was.

But Manuel didn't seem to care about her surprised look. He changed his shoes and opened the door.

Susan hurried to put on her shoes and followed over.

As they walked out of the door, Manuel turned around to shut the door. And then he started working on the electronic door lock.

Susan noticed that he had changed the password and deleted her fingerprint access.

Of course, if she were Manuel, she would do the same.

Whatever there was no room for her to explain. From now on, every possibility that she got into the wrong door again had gone.

Then, Manuel walked over to the elevator.

Susan continued to follow.

The air fell into silence inside the elevator.

They seemed to be strangers to each other.

As they reached the ground floor, Manuel led her out of the building.

The cold wind at night chilled her a lot even though she was wearing a coat.

She could barely keep herself warm because she was wearing a thin slip dress under the coat with no pants nor long stockings to cover her legs.

Stepping on the high heels, she felt like being frozen under the cold wind.

However, Manuel, who kept walking forward in her front and showed no intention to stop, didn't seem to notice that.

He kept going, walking quite steadily.

Watching his back, Susan fell into silence.

His legs should be alright, she supposed.

Then she strode over to follow.

As they reached the gate, she saw a black limousine parking there.

She recognized it was the chauffeur sent by her dad at the very first sight.

It must be Manuel who had told her dad about it. So he simply walked her to the gate.

A bit of upset came across in her mind, which she couldn't figure out a reason to account for.

She walked over to the limousine while Manuel was standing still and watching.

After she got into the car, she looked back, only to find that Manuel had walked away.

He didn't wear enough clothes but something thin. His hair got dishevelled as the night wind blew.

She watched him getting further and further away from her, both physically and mentally.

She somehow burst into tears.

...

Susan caught a bad cold the next day.

When she woke up, she was struck by serious dizziness.

She thought she had been tough enough to withstand any kind of virus.

Never had she expected that a few minutes of exposure under the night wind would knock her down.

Did the miscarriage weaken her a great deal?

She should have listened to Hannah's advice.

Then she made a call to her dad to ask for leave.

Though her dad had agreed, he still doubted it. Speechless, she couldn't help wondering if she got much less credible in her dad's eyes.

She lay in bed, feeling ill all over. Coldness, dizziness and heat all mixed up within her body.

She couldn't remember what the time was she caught a cold the last time.
