Chapter 627 - Which Mr. Schneider Are We Talking About? (1/2)
L seemed to think for a while. She then went into her room and changed into a loose dress and a long coat. Fortunately, the weather was still a bit cold so she could still wear a coat to conceal her pregnancy.
Next month the weather would be too hot and she would no longer be able to leave the house by hiding her protruding tummy with a jacket or coat. She decided he had to finish all her business before that time came.
”I want to go to Splitz's office. They will announce me as Virconnect ambassador tonight,” L told London, who was checking his messages and e-mails on his phone.
”Now? Why didn't you tell me from a few days ago?” he asked in astonishment.
”You don't need to take me. Pammy will pick me up.”
At that moment, there was a knock at the door. L immediately opened it and invited Pammy who was waiting at the door. The manager brought a very large flower arrangement.
”I brought flowers from Mr. Schneider yesterday. You forgot about them in my car,” Pammy commented as she walked in and then placed the flowers on the table.
London put on a happy grin to hear Pammy's words. It turned out that L didn't care at the slightest that London Schneider showed interest in her. She even left his flowers in Pammy's car.
”Mr. Schneider?” He pretended to ask in a curt voice. ”Which Mister Schneider are we talking about? Why did he give you flowers? Does he like you?”
Pammy answered London's question with a proud expression. ”Mr. London Schneider. His younger brother said Mr. London Schneider is Miss L's number one fan! That's so nice, isn't it?”
L seemed embarrassed to see the reaction of London who was surprised.
”Hmm ... that means your wish is slowly coming true ... Now you're famous, and there's a very wealthy man who likes you,” murmured London, staring at L with a sharp look. ”You must be very happy now.”
L looked down, didn't reply to London's words. She took a very large flower vase and poured water into it and helped Pammy arrange the flowers from London Schneider in the vase.
”Let's go now.” She then pulled Pammy's hand and walked out of the apartment.
London could only sigh. He still can't read L and couldn't understand what the girl was thinking.

After that night's events, not many things happened. The relationship between the two was still civil but London felt that L kept her distance. London realized that it was his own fault. If he wasn't drunk back then and slept with L, maybe the girl would have no reason to stay away from him.
