Chapter 455

'That seems to be the case."

Leia nodded. In comparison, she seemed much calmer, as if she was used to that kind of incident.

"Are you sure that a four-year-old kid came to Beach City alone?"

'Technically, he's four years and three months old."

"But... How is that possible? He's a four-year-old kid. How did he do that? Why are you so calm? Aren't you worried that he may meet bad guys?"

'It's abnormal for such things to happen to other four-year-olds, but not Adie. It's not the first time he did such a thing. Previously, he would run away from time to time. His mother would catch him and teach him a hard lesson, but consequently... he became better and more skillful at running away. It's so hard to stop him from doing that. My bestie can't do anything about him!"

Leia appeared proud when she mentioned her genius godson. She said with extreme confidence, "What's more, you don't have to worry that he'll be bullied. He's quite capable and amazing. They'll be pretty lucky if he doesn't torture them instead..."

So, she was not worried about Adie now. However, she was worried about Stefan more because Adie had always regarded him as an eyesore and a pain in the neck since childhood. He even vowed to teach Stefan a hard lesson.

"Really? That kid is too exceptional. Is he... Mr. Hunt's son?"

Feeling shocked, William carefully asked Leia to try and sound her out.

Leia had always been a carefree person, but she inevitably became vigilant, staring at him and frowning. "Why so interested in my bestie? Why ask so many questions? You asked me where the kid is and who his father is. Are you even looking into her registered permanent residence?"

William's gaze turned slightly guilty. He coughed lightly and replied, 'You're jealous, aren't you? I asked more because Miss Everheart is your best friend. In short... I only care about her because I care about you."

"I'm not jealous. I just want to warn you. Better not harbor evil thoughts against my bestie. If you dare to do anything to her, I'll never let you off the hook!"

Recently, Leia had begun to question her boyfriend's origin. He didn't look as simple as she had thought.

It was fine if she suffered a bit of loss, but she could not burden Ren.

"I think we'd better calm down since it's been a rather critical period recently. Let's stop meeting each other for the time being to avoid you harboring evil thoughts!"

After that, she grabbed her bag and turned to leave.

William became anxious, and he grabbed her arm. "Baby, are you trying to break up with me? You pinned such a groundless charge on me. Don't you think it's a little too unfair?"

"It's just temporary. Only after Ren's affair settles down would I consider if I'd get back together with you."

Leia wore a cold face and shook off his hand before she left the restaurant.

She had indeed taken a fancy to him, but she began to notice and question his intentions of approaching her. Hence, she had no choice but to force herself to break up with him to ensure Renee wouldn't be burdened.

"Don't go!"

William watched her back, and he was filled with unexpected pain.

It was then that he realized that he had fallen in love with her...

However, he wondered what he should do with Briar.

While thinking, Briar called her.

After hesitating for a long while, he picked up the call.

'What are you doing? What took you so long to pick up the call?"

Briar's face was cold, and she sounded impatient. "Come to Water Dock now and help me deliver a special thing," she ordered
