Chapter 83 Crush
Maurie remembered that in high school, while Leah was beautiful and brilliant in every way, she was no different from other classmates from ordinary families in terms of clothing and daily necessities.
He wondered why she moved into this luxurious and impressive villa in just a few years.
Leah took out the access card from her bag and was about to swipe it. Upon hearing Maurie's surprised voice, she looked sideways at him.
"Yeah, I live here. What's wrong?"
Maurie shook his head. "Nothing. You've been tired for a long day. Go back and rest."
"Okay." Leah smiled and thanked Maurie, "Thank you for sending me back today."
Maurie was dazzled by Leah's bright smile, his heart pounding.
"My...pleasure."
Leah swiped the access card and went in. Maurie stood there in a daze, watching her until her figure disappeared. Then he got in the car, turned around, and headed in the opposite direction.
On his way back, Maurie's cell phone next to him rang.
He glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was his good friend. He tapped the Bluetooth earphones to answer the call.
"Hey, how come our busy man has time to call me? I'm really flattered."
Quentin, on the other side of the phone, paused for a moment before saying, "Didn't you come back from abroad? Why don't you come out to get together with us?"
Maurie missed them quite a bit and immediately said, "Where are you? I'll be there right away."
"The usual place."
"Okay, wait half an hour."
Maurie stepped on the accelerator and headed to the usual place, Vertwood Bar, where they often gathered.
