Chapter 615 - Three Sets of Shirts (1/2)
Jan was very happy to hear that London decided to attend the May Festival, and brought his brother along. Jan and Rune were of the same age and they were quite close when they were younger. however, after he attended university and Rune became so busy with his research, they hardly had time to meet.
London and Rune's presence would also bring something fresh to the festival. The Schneider family was known to be really reclusive. Even though they sponsored the festival, their family members almost never attended the event.
Showing up now would mean a lot to the performers because they would feel that their hard work was supported and noticed by that family.
Jan really needed to immediately notify his secretary to update the festival's news.
”Hmm... it's already 5 PM. I have to go home.” London stood up and tidied up his bag. ”You've bought the two units next to my apartment, right? Have Marc and Dave moved there?”
Jan nodded. ”As you ordered, they're staying there watching over Miss L. The car has also been replaced.”
”Good. I'll stop by the penthouse to take a shower before heading back to the apartment. Oh, by the way, please ask the chefs at St. Laurent Hotel's restaurant to prepare food for me to take away. I'm not in the mood to cook.” London then rushed out of his room.
”You cook?” Jan murmured in amazement. Even so, he did everything his boss ordered him without protest.
London left for the penthouse with Leon and Dean, his other two bodyguards, because Marc and Dave were in the apartment to watch over L.

KNOCK KNOCK
London knocked on the apartment door twice, just like what he always did, and entered with the passkey. He put the flowers next to L, who was busy writing on a notebook as though she was memorizing something.
”These are for you. And I brought special food. There was an important event at the place I went to, and there was plenty of leftover food. I was allowed to take some of them home.” London lifted the food package in his right hand. ”It would be a shame to waste such good food...”
L received the flowers from London with hesitation. She didn't expect to be given flowers every day. Which woman didn't like to receive flowers? London knew that L wasn't an exception.
”Yesterday's flowers are still good,” L commented while pointing at the vase she put in the living room. ”Why would you buy me more flowers?”
”I know. But these flowers were also free, really. They were from the event I attended,” London shrugged. ”It would be a shame to throw them away.”
He didn't care if L were to look down on him because he seemed to bring her only leftover goods. He had to find an excuse as to why he could bring her things like flowers and fancy food almost every day.
However, surprisingly, L didn't look offended at all, nor did she mock him for bringing 'leftovers'. The girl just nodded and put the new flowers in another vase. She then arranged the food that London brought at the dinner table, and they immediately sat down for dinner together.
