Sophie in the Time of Secrets Chapter 39

Caleb Zhou went home and slept for another day until the sun went down. He got up without paying attention to his appearance, put on a coat, and went downstairs in his pajamas to ask Li Ma for a cup of coffee. His sister-in-law had just come back from outside with a box in her hand. When she saw Caleb Zhou, she exclaimed, "It's just right. There's something for you. A waiter just delivered it."

The sister-in-law had just finished speaking when she saw the wound on Caleb Zhou's face. She was surprised and asked, "What happened to you? Were you beaten?" Then she started to lecture him again, repeating the same old things, saying that if he had continued to learn martial arts from his master, he wouldn't be bullied now. Caleb Zhou didn't say anything, and didn't want to say what was the point of learning martial arts now, and he couldn't even catch a bullet.

Caleb Zhou took the box with a coffee cup. Inside was a suit, a stiff collar, a faint fragrance, and a letter. Caleb Zhou did not open the letter and closed the box. His sister-in-law raised her eyebrows: "Why don't you read it?" Caleb Zhou smiled but said nothing. Now he has someone in his heart. As for the suit, no matter who gave it to him, he has no interest in it.

He asked his sister-in-law to put the box away, he didn't want to wear it. He and his sister-in-law asked when his elder brother would come home, and his sister-in-law said it would be a while. After having dinner downstairs, Caleb Zhou sat in the courtyard to look at the flowers. At this time, he saw his elder brother's assistant Xiao Fu hurriedly crossing the courtyard and walking towards the study. It was clear that his elder brother had not come back yet, what was wrong with this assistant?

With a hint of suspicion, he followed Xiao Fu. After Xiao Fu came out of the study, he also went into the study. There was no one in the study. Caleb Zhou looked around and saw no signs of searching. He couldn't really blame him for being suspicious. His elder brother's business was dangerous, so Allen tied him up and threatened him. Xiao Fu was also likely to be bribed.
