"Why don't you just show up as yourself?" Henry asked in surprise as he looked at Leah's different appearance from head to toe."It may be safe there, but appearing as Leah Abigail will make it difficult for Suzy, all the nuns are very loyal to Jerome," Leah replied as she adjusted the wig on her head.Henry nodded his head, "Okay!

Ever since she was in school, the thing she always wanted was to sit in front of a cafe in Paris with a cup of coffee and a piece of warm croissant while watching the passers-by in Parisian fashion."Bonjour, puis-je avoir un café noir chaud et deux croissants au chocolat?" said Leah in French, still stuttering because she had only learned it a while ago.

She just wanted to be alone. Damien stared at Leah for a long time, "Are you sure?
