NovelEnglishChapter 312 Almost Let Something Slip
"Interest?" Isabel's eyes widened.
"W-what are you saying?" Isabel had a vague suspicion of what Xander meant but wasn't entirely certain. The
car stopped at a red light, and Xander turned to face Isabel.
"Can't you see? Richie has feelings for Leslie."
Isabel's mind raced with questions.
"I mean, | can tell. Aren't they just like siblings-"
"What if | told you it's not what you think?"
Not what | think? Then what is it?
Could it be...
"Yes." Xander nodded at the expression on Isabel's face. "Exactly, it's just as you're thinking now."
"No, no, no!"

She donned a black outfit, mask, and baseball cap, then left for the agreed-upon location.
Meanwhile, Richie received the information.
"Where's the meeting?"
"An abandoned factory on the outskirts."
"Sendthe exact location."
"Understood."
Richie ended the call and walked over to the window to look outside.
Earlier that morning, he had received word that the people from the alliance had completed the mission to steal

pendant that evening. Cont
He was determined to find out who issued the mission.

At the Bennett Residence.
Leo hurried in.
"Boss, Mr. Pearce quietly left the city center with a few bodyguards."
Xander's expression immediately darkened.
"Do we know why?"
Leo shook his head.
At that moment, Samuel chimed in.
"What else could it be? It's definitely something related to Leslie."
