This time, Derila took Layla's words to heart.
In fact, when she was attacked by Chrono earlier, she began to reflect on it.
She was already small and weak, and although she was still quite athletic and had no
problem dealing with a few ordinary people, it was hard to tell when she encountered a
professional expert like Chrono.
She had the skill of summoning beasts, but in many places there were no beasts at all,
and this had long ago caused her skill to be unable to be exercised in many situations.
So, she had to make a change.
Still deep in thought, Derila's mobile phone rang, and when she saw the caller ID,
she hurriedly answered the call, "William!"
"Derila, when are you free, can we meet?" William asked. His voice was still as
gentle and nice as ever.
Derila looked at Lacy in the next ward through the glass door and said with
difficulty, "I can't conveniently go far with Lacy's current situation. How about
this if you come over to my side and I'll send you the address."
"Okay."
Hanging up the phone, Derila sent the address to William.
Layla was a bit uneasy: "Is this William reliable? It's better not to let people know our
address easily. There is a lot at stake."
"Auntie, William is a good friend of mine. He is of good character and treats me well,
there will be no problem. And just to be cautious, I sent him to meet me at a cafe two
kilometres away, so if anything happens at home, I can come back quickly."
Derila said as she gathered her things, "I'll go upstairs and take a shower first,
there's still blood and stains on me."
"Good, go on." Layla helped her up, "I'll have someone accompany you there later."
Derila: "No, I'll just go by myself. My car keys are in my room, right?"
Layla: "It's in your drawer."
Derila: "Well, thank you auntie. You keep an eye on Lacy for me and call me
anytime if anything happens."
Layla: "Good."
Derila returned to her room, quickly took a shower, changed into light clothes, put
on her hat, took her car keys and hurriedly drove to meet William.
No sooner had she left than Anthony came downstairs and hurriedly inquired of Layla,
"Auntie, where is the Derila going this time?"
"Out on an errand, it's not far." Layla stared at Anthony, and asked, "Aren't you going to
the hospital? Why aren't you leaving yet?"
"I was just passing information to Uncle Lincoln, I'm leaving right now." Anthony frowned
and said, "Is it okay for the Derila to go out alone? Why don't you send someone to
accompany her, auntie?"
"She has my specific weapons in the car, and she's going out to meet someone she
knows, not to mention that the meeting is not far away, and I'm connected to the
surveillance along the way." Layla explained, and then said coldly, "I still need you to
direct me in what I do?"
"Auntie, Sorry!" Anthony apologized repeatedly, and then left in a hurry with his
bodyguards.
Derila drove a dilapidated pickup truck like a wild horse off the leash and sped past,
arriving at the grape café in an instant.
The shop was named so because the shopkeeper had a dog named Grapes.
"Ms.Feroma is here!"
The owner greeted Derila.
Derila had often come here before to buy bread and coffee. She and her auntie
Layla were lazy and couldn't cook their own food, so if Uncle Lincoln and Anthony
weren't home and there was no one to cook for them, they would buy food outside.
The coffee at this coffee shop was average, but the bread was well baked.
"Hello, boss."
Derila couldn't remember his name and called him boss directly every time. She
waved her car keys and entered the house, and just as she sat down, two luxury cars
drove up outside.
The boss brought the iced Americano to Derila and gave her a few breadsticks,
asking with a raised eyebrow, "Those limousines aren't here for you, are they?"
"Probably." Derila took a sip of her iced Americano, so bitter that she wanted to
vomit, "Your coffee here, it's as bad as ever."
At that moment, Clark just happened to push William in, followed by four tall
bodyguards and a few other men guarding the door.
