Chapter 226: With No Warning Or Indication
"Are you certain it's this bookstore?" said Francis as he looked at the storefront a short distance away.
The store was exactly just as reported: without any sign, decorations, nor anything special.
Ordinary and poor were words that anyone seeing this would use to describe it.
However, the book cafe next door, which wasn’t open yet, appeared refreshing and eye-catching. Even if situated in the Central District, it would be considered an ‘upmarket’ place.
The contrast was particularly evident since the two units were adjacent to each other.
Although Francis had no sense for business, he couldn’t help but think that the book cafe had deliberately chosen to set up shop beside such a bookstore to increase its business.
When he thought about it this way, perhaps his actions today might make the book cafe lose some of its competitive edge.
Well, sorry about that then. The corner of Francis’ lips curled into a wicked smile.
A burly knight beside him replied in a husky voice, "Yes, there is no mistake. This is the bookstore that Selena mentioned."
"But it’s the only bookstore left in the area. It's strange that a bookstore in the middle of nowhere for years has yet to close down, and everything that happened in the last few months was nearby.”
“On their own accord?!"
Claude had a ugly look on his face. This was completely ridiculous in his opinion. What if Wilde were to realize something was off and cause their entire ambush to fall apart because these fools acted on their own?!
"Find out who they are and the reason for them coming... Wait a minute."
Claude suddenly paused. He thought of another possibility.
"Could it be that... Mr. Lin intentionally arranged it to avoid disputes among his customers?"
