Chapter 657
Lennon fell silent.
Okay, very good.
She couldn’t even remember his phone number.
The man took a deep breath.
Now is not the time to be entangled with this.

Lennon spoke in a hoarse voice, “The flight to Los Angeles has been delayed, and the high–speed train is also not running. I came directly by car after leaving the law firm in the afternoon. I just arrived in Stamford now, and I will probably reach Los Angeles around one o’clock in the morning.”
“Did you
drive over here?” Marie said, somewhat incredulous.
Lennon nodded.
Marie unconsciously raised her voice, “New York is over nine hundred kilometers away from here. Did you drive all the way here by yourself? It has been pouring rain for several days, and there is flooding everywhere. What are you doing in Los Angeles? Go back quickly!”
The man’s voice was hoarse:“I didn’t come alone, and I took turns driving with Thomas. Marie, I had to see you to feel at ease.”
Over 900 kilometers, it normally takes about ten hours to drive without traffic, let alone the fact that Los Angeles is experiencing severe flooding. To get to Los Angeles, the time will only be longer.
Marie’s knuckles tightened as she held onto her phone, her heart quivering, and her eyes feeling a bit sour.
Although I was deeply moved in my heart, as soon as I opened my mouth, I couldn’t help but be sharp.“Who told you to come and find me? It’s very dangerous here with the flooding. Please don’t be self–indulgent, okay? I can’t afford the responsibility if something happens to the Stark family’s prince. I’m fine, so please go back quickly, there’s no need to come.”
Lennon chuckled self–deprecatingly, “No one asked me to come, it was my own decision, Marie, don’t worry, if anything happens, it’s my own fault, it has nothing to do with you.”
Marie’s throat tightened, and tears welled up in her eyes.“Lennon, I didn’t allow you to come, gd back quickly!”
The village was very remote, surrounded by floods, and there might have been a mudslide in some nearby area.
