Chapter 218 Can’t We Hope for His Well-being

Gwen had celebrated Harold’s birthday several times before, so she was familiar with it.

Simone asked, “Do you know the exact time of Harold’s birth? If you knew, I could figure it

out.”

Gwen shook her head. “I don’t know the exact time.”

“How about I ask him?” Even though she had decided not to love him anymore, she couldn’t bear to

see him get hurt.

In any case, she had already reminded him. If he didn’t listen, his life and death would be his

responsibility, and it had nothing to do with her

Simone nodded. “Go ahead and ask and find out if he knows about Freya’s problem.”

Gwen called Harold.

At the bar, Harold and Leon were drinking and complaining.

Titus was watching from the side, occasionally making sarcastic remarks.

Suddenly, Harold’s phone rang.

He picked it up, and his eyes instantly lit up.

He answered, his voice unusually gentle. “Gwen.” This made Titus unable to help but comment. “I’m

getting goosebumps.”

Leon was also speechless. “He gives me the creeps too.”

Harold couldn’t be bothered with the two of them. He spoke even more tenderly. “What do you need?”

It was the first time he had proactively called her since Gwen returned to the

country.

Gwen was also not used to it. His speaking so gently made her rub her arms.

She straightforwardly said, “Please speak normally. Your sweet talk is killing me.”

He was speechless and repeated what he had just said to Gwen in his usual tone. “Gwen, what do you

need?” She asked, “Are you free to talk now?” His thoughts turned, and he asked. “What do you mean

by being free to talk? I’m at bar, and there are two people with me. Does that count?” She said, “Then,

that doesn’t count. Wait a moment.” She looked at Simone and asked, “He’s at a bar. Should we avoid

saying something? Simone thought for a moment. “Why don’t you have him come over to our place?

15

She had set up an array in the apartment and used anti-theft, anti-eavesdropping, and anti- recording

systems.

Talking here was safe.

Gwen gave her a thumbs up.

Then, she told Harold, “Simone and I want to talk to you about something. Do you have time now?” He

said. “I have time.”

He added, “Whenever you want to talk to me, I have time.”

Gwen rolled her eyes. “Don’t say those useless words.”

He indulgently said, “Okay. I’ll listen to you.”

She was speechless. “Harold, you’re shameless.”

Harold was speechless. This hurts.

She couldn’t be bothered to argue with him. “If you have time, come to where we live.”

Without hesitation, he nodded. “Okay.” Only after Gwen hung up the phone, she remembered she had

blocked Harold.

So, she unblocked him.

Then, she sent him the location and apartment number.

After hanging up the phone, he showed it off to Leon. “Gwen asked me to go find her.”

“Leon, you’ll have to drink alone from now on.”

Leon was speechless. This is also a sc”mbag,

He asked, “Gwen asked you alone to go find her so late?” His sister’s personality was similar to

Simone’s decisive and straightforward.

She had dumped this se mbag, so why would she agree to meet him alone? It didn’t seem likely

Only then did Harold say, “Simone is also there

“But Gwen asked me to go, so it’s a good start

When Leon heard this, he immediately perked up Is Smone there too? Then, Ill go with

you

Harold looked at him inexplicably. “Gwen asked me to go for something. Why are your coming along?

Are you intentionally trying to provoke Simone? Even if you want to harm me, you won’t be able to get

in.” Leon’s face darkened. “If you can’t speak, then shut up.”

“You’re going to do something, and I’ll accompany you. What’s the big deal?”

Titus also chimed in. “I’ll go with you guys too.”

He had nothing to do now, so he wanted to see them make a fool of themselves.

Harold was at a loss for words. “You two are almost the same. I’m going to take care of something

important.”

Leon and Titus said in unison, “We’ll go with you to take care of something important.”

He ignored them.

Seeing the location sent by Gwen, he stood up and said, “You guys continue drinking. Put it on my tab.”

Then, he was about to leave.

Leon stood up and followed him. “Do I look like someone who needs that little bit of money? I’d rather

follow you.”

Titus also stood up. “I’ll pay the bill. Let’s go.”

Harold asked with a dark face. “Are you guys serious?” These two were trying to harm him. Leon and

Titus both nodded. “We’re serious.”

Titus scanned the QR code and paid the bill.

Then, the two followed Harold out after getting into the car.

For the first time, he realized that these two had such thick skin.

Knowing that he couldn’t shake them off, he could only send a message to Gwen.

“Gwen, your brother, and Titus are shamelessly following me. They want to come along. What should I

do?” Gwen was speechless when she saw this message.

How did her brother’s shamelessness reach this level?

“Simone, Leon, and Sc’mbag No. 2 are sticking around with Harold.”

“What should we do? Should we let them come along?” Or should we have Harold come next time?”

She didn’t mind the other two coming along.

But she was afraid Simone would mind. After all, both of them were the ones Simone was least

interested in dealing with now.

Simone thought for a moment. “Let’s go together then.”

Leon could be ignored, but she had a question that needed clarification from someone in the Gray

Family, and Sc*mbag No. 2 coming was perfect.

Gwen nodded. “Alright.” She messaged Harold. “It’s up to you guys.”

Harold breathed a sigh of relief. “Gwen, you’re so kind.” Gwen was not used to it. Harold was acting

like a lapdog now. “Don’t flatter me.”

If he had been this kind to her earlier, they might have been together long ago, and things. wouldn’t

have turned out like this.

Regardless, it was too late now, and she wouldn’t change her attitude because of him.

Harold’s eyes dimmed upon seeing this.

He said to Leon, “If you want to come, then come.”

Leon felt a glimmer of joy. “Did Simone agree for us to come along?” Harold glanced at him, “Don’t get

too excited. I don’t think Simone will accommodate you.”

Titus also said, “I think so, too.”

Leon’s face grew darker. “You guys can leave.”

We were still brothers. Couldn’t you hope for my well-being?

When the three arrived at the location, they were allowed in because Simone had already informed the

security in advance.

Upon reaching the door, they saw that it was open.

Harold still knocked. “Gwen?” The voice of Gwen came from inside. “Come in. There are shoe covers

in the shoe cabinet. Put them on yourselves.”

He smiled and said, “Alright.” The three put on shoe covers and entered, closing the door behind them.

They saw Simone and Gwen sitting on the couch, engrossed in their phones.

“Have a seat,” Simone looked up. “What would you like to drink?” Harold smiled and said, Just water.”

Simone nodded, got up, and poured three glasses of water, placing them on the table.

Then, she looked at Harold. “We have something to tell.

you

about Freya.”

“I don’t know if your two friends can listen. Are they trustworthy?” Leon and Titus felt a pang in their

hearts.

So now, it seemed they were only Harold’s friends in Simone’s eyes. And whether they were

trustworthy or not, did they need to ask Harold?
