Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)
Chapter 113

Chapter 113 Kidnapped

"Did you deliver to the wrong address?"

I was puzzled. Leonard had just messaged me, and now the food was here.

My stomach rumbled. After all the chaos today, I hadn't eaten and felt quite hungry.

The delivery person mentioned Leonard's phone number. "Can you please confirm if this is the right phone number?"

I was at a loss for words. Maybe Leonard had suddenly decided to be thoughtful?

I reminisced how considerate he was back in college, and a smile crept onto my face.

But then I noticed the takeout dish was eggplant, which I didn't particularly like. Did he forget that I wasn't a fan? He loved it, though.

However, my hunger prevailed, and I set aside my pickiness. The food from this place was usually good, Perhaps the tension had me feeling a bit drowsy as well.

The penthouse was incredible but a bit too spacious. I felt a little lonely without Buddy.

As I was about to doze off, the doorbell rang again.

"Hello, your fruit order has arrived."

"Could you please open the door so I can help carry the fruits upstairs?"

The delivery person struggled with two large boxes of fruit.

I wanted to tell Leonard that the supermarket downstairs does delivery.

But this man, so accustomed to a life of ease, probably wasn't even aware of this.

I reluctantly opened the door.

"Mrs. Harmon, can I leave them here at the entrance?"

Looking at the cherries, strawberries, and grapes in the boxes, I felt Leonard had lost his mind.

Just because Lily had evaded capture, did he need to stock up like it was the end of the world?

I nodded. 'Just leave them here."

The delivery I'm sorry, but the grapes were overweight."

guy picked up a receipt and glanced at me sheepishly. "Mrs. Harmon

"I wasn't able to reach you when I gave you a call. Should I return them or will you cover the price difference?" Seeing the sweat dripping from his brow, I felt a pang of sympathy.

"I'll cover the extra cost. How much is it?"

*15 dollars, you can pay by card."

1 took the receipt and turned to grab my phone. Suddenly, something felt off. The delivery guy stepped inside.

I hesitated, then quickly opened the dialer and dialed 911 for help,

When I turned around, the guy had pulled out the credit card reader on his mobile.

"Just scan your card here. If there are any issues, just call the number on the receipt. We offer a full

refund.

I thought he might be desperate to make a few extra bucks, so I slowly let my guard down.

"Alright, let me just..."

Before I could finish, he suddenly pulled out a spray can and sprayed something on my face..

I felt dizzy, and

e quickly steadied me.

"No wonder it's imported. Can you still stand straight?"

I was swaying and my body felt uncoordinated, but somehow I remained upright.

The delivery guy sighed in relief and whispered, "Follow me out, then lock the door behind you. Remember to keep a smile."

I forced a smile, though my body still wobbled.

It felt like I'd lost some control over my body, but I could still move.

As he led me into the elevator, my vision blurred, and I passed out.

When I finally regained consciousness, my stomach churned, and I realized I was lying on something. bumpy.

I didn't want to open my eyes immediately, so I cracked them just enough to confirm I was alone before fully opening them.

My heart raced as a familiar scent wafted over me.

Lily was on board!
