No 1 Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 768

Hearing Caroline's words on the phone, Leo faintly froze and then revealed a smile.

"Okay, I'll pick you up tomorrow."

It was said without hanging up the phone.

Coincidentally, Caroline, who was on the other side, didn't hang up either.

Both fell into silence, so quiet they could hear each other's breathing.

"Leo ----"

"Caroline ----"

Both men spoke again at the same time.

Both men froze for a moment, obviously not expecting the other to call their names at the same time.

"You first. ----"

"I'm in no hurry ----"

"......"

Again, in unison!

Leo covered his forehead, his face full of helplessness.

Caroline's breathing on the phone was even more rapid ---- Leo could fully imagine how flushed her face was now.

Speaking of Caroline, Leo also sighed.

They were former childhood friend, but later they became enemies, and now they had reach mutual forgiveness now.

Even though Leo had forgiven her, there had long been a gap between the two.

Time can change everything and even two people who used to be close can become strangers.

And this time, Caroline never uttered another word, but waited for Leo to speak.

Taking a deep breath, Leo spoke softly.

"I'm sorry."

"......"

On the other side of the phone, Caroline waited for half a day and ended up waiting for these words, she said in a pretend relaxed tone, "Why apologize? It's not like you've done anything wrong to me."

Leo's smile was bitter, "This is what I must say to you, that time at Hopkins Stadium, if it wasn't for you, Emilia and Lydia might have ......"

Leo didn't say any more.

Caroline was stunned, then also remembered the Hopkins gymnasium.

In order to force the 'Commander of Wyverns' to show himself, Violet used Lydia and Emilia as bait, and whoever could capture them would be spared death.

Caroline, desperately trying to protect Emilia, was seriously injured and sent to hospital.

Leo had always wanted to thank her in person, but without waiting for Caroline to wake up, they left for Valenham.

Caroline forced a smile and said, "It's alright, Emilia is considered my niece, protecting my niece is what I should do."

After a pause, he added, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up."

"Okay, good night."

Hanging up the phone, Leo shook his head and went back to Dongcheng Hutong.

In picking up Caroline and the others, Leo's initial intention was to restore the habits of Cheng Pearl.

But now it seems highly likely that it will become awkward for him and Caroline to get along.

Gathering himself, Leo walked gently into the house.

A faint light emanates from the dimly lit living room; it is a small table lamp for illumination.

With soft eyes, Leo picked up this table lamp and then headed upstairs.

Leo and Lydia made a little wish that every day, no matter how late he came home, there would be a little light left on for him.

And now, Lydia has done it.

Gently opening the door, to Leo's surprise, Lydia was actually not sleeping.
