Chapter 647 - Are You Spying On Me? (1/2)
For a moment, London seemed to lose his mind when he heard L's statement that she already had a fiance. That is impossible! They were only separated for 10 days ... When did L suddenly find a fiance? Did she mean Daniel Swan? How could it be? They only met a few days ago.
”You're lying ...” London finally said. ”You only said that so I will stop chasing you. If you really don't like me that much, why did you have to lie like this?”
He looked very disappointed. London didn't expect L would have the heart to lie to him like this. The girl looked at London with tears in her eyes.
”I'm not lying. You know how much I hate liars the most ...” she said firmly.
Both stared at each other deeply. London tried to find a trace of lies in the girl's eyes, but he did not find it. Did this mean, L was really telling him the truth?
But how could he believe that L suddenly had a fiance? This was too sudden.
”I will only believe you if you say it after you take this truth serum ...” London finally said. ”It's time we both open up to each other. If you are honest with me, I will be honest with you.”
He took out a small bottle from his pocket and showed it to L.
”What is this?” L frowned.
”My brother is a scientist, and he made this veritaserum, or the truth serum. It is safe for pregnant women. I just happened to bring it with me ...” London looked for an excuse. ”It seems like we've both been hiding a lot of truth from each other.”
L looked at the veritaserum bottle and London alternately. ”You don't believe me?”
London shook his head. ”Like I said, you hid a lot of truth from me all this time. I don't even know anything about you.”
L bit her lip. ”If ... if I took this medicine, will you believe me? Will you stop chasing me?”
London nodded. ”I will believe whatever you say.”
L took a deep breath and grabbed the bottle from London's hand and hurriedly gulped down half of its contents. She wiped her lips and then looked back at London. This time her face looked very serious. ”Ask me anything.”
London was stunned to see L without hesitation drinking the truth serum. In his head, he could only think of the question of whether L really was engaged or not.
”Do you like me?” London asked, feeling hopeful.
L looked at him for a long time, then nodded slowly. ”I do.”
With only those two words, L managed to make London's heart flutter. The man smiled happily to hear that.
”Do you really have a fiance?” he asked again, hoping that L would answer honestly, that it was only an excuse on her part.
L nodded. ”I do. I'm engaged to be married to someone else.”
BAM!
It was summer in Germany, the sky was very clear and the weather was perfect, but London's heart, which was initially filled with warmth, suddenly became cloudy. He could not believe L's words, but he knew veritaserum did not lie. His head felt hurt.
”Is it... is it Daniel Swan ???” he asked in a bitter voice. He did not think in such a short amount of time, L found a wealthy man who was interested in her. She immediately accepted the man's proposal and became engaged to him. London was really disappointed.
