Chapter 296 - Extra Exercise (1) (1/2)

When Kris and Keso got to the car, Bella gave Kris a called.

”I got it the bombs... and evidence. I can meet you at your place in half an hour.”

”I'm busy. Keso will come and pick up the stuff.”

”Alright,” Bella replied and the call ended.

Kris looked at his watch. He still has two hours before going back home to be with Lena.

”Stop at the company.” Kris spoke.

Keso nodded and drove toward the company. After a 20 minute drive, he parked and stopped the car.

”Get out.”

”Ah?” Keso looked at Kris.

”I'm dropping you off here. You can take one of the company cars. Go pick up the bombs from Bella and take the evidence from her. I want Gary to analyze the evidence to make sure it's real.”

”Yes, Boss.”

Keso got out of the driver seat while Kris got into it. Without another word, Kris slammed on the gas and drove out.

It was a short drive until Kris got the store he wanted. He parked the car and walked in. Immediately, some of the shoppers looked at Kris and smiled at him.

An attendant rushed up to Kris and greeted him.

”Welcome, Mr. Li.”

”I'm looking for a gift.”

”Yes... right this way to our exclusive items.” The young woman led Kris to a different part of the room.

As they walk in, the young lady pointed out several of the new items they have. Kris looked at them and then shook his head.

”I want something... less.”

”Cheaper?” The lady asked.

”No.” Kris glared at her. Does she think the price is a problem for him?

”Oh.... Um... yes.. less. I can show you what we have over here.” The attendant walked over to a different room.

As they arrived, Kris smiled. Yes... this was what he was looking for.

He walked around and start grabbing a few selections from the racks. He chose about 7 sets and then walked out.

”I want them wrapped and individually bagged nicely.”

”Yes, sir.”

Kris handed the lady his credit card and then went back to the waiting room until she returned with his items. He thanked her and then left.

He still has some time left so he stopped by a bakery and got something sweet for Lena.

He stopped by Lena's apartment first, but she was not there. He immediately called her and she picked up.

”Hmm?” Lena answered the phone.

”Where are you?”

”On the rooftop, it's better to draw up here.”

”Ok. I got you some scones.”

”OOHHH.... i love scones.”

”I'll be right up.”

”Okay.”

Kris went up to the rooftop and he spotted Lena outside, with a light sweater and drawing on her tablet. He walked over, kissed her cheek really quick and then placed the box of scones on the table.

”What's that?” Lena pointed to the bags that Kris was holding.

”Your presents.”

”Oh? Can I see?”

Lena went in to grab it but Kris moved them behind him. ”Not yet.”

”Why?”

”Cuz... there's a time for presents.”

”Ok... How was your morning then? A success?”
