The next day L and Pammy took a walk in central London while carrying Lily. According to Pammy, L really needed to entertain herself after facing so much negativity for the last few days. It was enough to depress her.

The presence of her manager really helped L because she wasn't too lonely. They could also take turns in taking care of Lily. After shopping and having lunch together outside, L's mood improved.

They were sitting at a cafe terrace overlooking the road. After lunch, the two decided to stop by the pretty little cafe to enjoy a cup of cappuccino and lemon cake.

"The weather is very bright for autumn," she commented, raising her hand and staring at the sky. "This city is charming."

"You've been to London, when you performed as the opening act for the Rainfall band," Pammy reminded her.

"Yes, but at that time, I was very busy working and did not have the opportunity to sightsee, even though Kitaro invited me to explore the city."

"Yeah, right... that handsome Kitaro. He always set his heart to you, right? What was his response after yesterday's rumors circulated?" Pammy asked, sipping her coffee. "He finally retreats, right?"

Pammy hoped that all men who were approached L would all back down after L announced her pregnancy and giving birth to her baby. That way, London Schneider would no longer need to feel jealous. Pammy really wanted to see L married and live happily with that man.

L shook her head weakly. "He called me many times, but I didn't pick up his calls. My mood was very bad. Later, when I'm feeling better, I'll contact him."

Pammy nodded. "Hmm ... what about Mr. Schneider? When was the last time you two talked?"

"Two days ago. He and I both agreed to give each other space for the time being. I told him to date other women, so he wouldn't feel curious about what's out there. Jan said London needs to meet many women so he could compare them to me, and he could check his own feelings. I agree with Jan."

"Wait, Director Van Der Ven said that?" Pammy looked confused. "Then ... did Mr. Schneider do it?"

"Two days ago, he went on a date with the first woman. Jan has scheduled the next date with a beautiful pediatrician, then a law student who was also a good singer and so on ..." Anger started to tinge L's voice.

"But he did it because you told him to follow Jan's advice. I don't think you can blame him for following your own request..." Pammy commented. "I'm sure he doesn't care about other women. The proof is, he takes care of you. Look, he let you stay in the Presidential Suite while you are in London. Why don't you try contacting him and asking how he is doing."

L seemed to think for a moment. She did really miss London and wanted to talk to him.

Alright ... it's not the time to be proud, she thought. After all, they had opened up to each other a few days ago and L had also promised to improve their communication.

Finally, she nodded and pulled out her cellphone.

[Lily and I are taking a walk with Pammy in London. My business here will be over in two days. We will return to Berlin on the weekend. How are you?]

Not long after, London Schneider replied to her message. The sound of incoming text made L's face beam with happiness.

[I am fine. I miss you and Lily so much. Can't wait to see you again.]

"What did he say?" Pammy asked curiously.

L did not answer. She put her cellphone in her handbag and finished her cappuccino.

"It's late. Let's go back to the hotel," the girl said in a happy voice. Pammy smiled at L's cheerful attitude and concluded for herself that the girl received a pleasant reply.

They came out of the terrace cafe and walked to the end of the road to the taxi stop. Redding Street, which they were on, was a bustling street with various cafes and restaurants on its left and right. At the end of the road, there was a small park, and across from it was a very large private hospital.

While they were leisurely walking to the taxi stand, Pammy suddenly saw a man sitting enjoying wine at a table in an upscale restaurant to their right. She hurriedly pulled L's coat. L, who was pushing Lily's stroller, was taken aback and stared at her in surprise.

"What is it, Pammy?"

"Sshhh ... L, isn't that Mr. Schneider? What is he doing in London?"

L was shocked to hear Pammy's words. She stopped and turned to look in the direction her manager had indicated. They hurriedly hid behind a large potted plant while peering in through the large glass window.

Gosh ... 

L widened her eyes when she saw London sitting at one of the tables inside the Italian restaurant. He was enjoying wine while reading the news on his tablet.

Instantly, the girl's face lit up. She had expected that London would watch her from afar, but she did not expect the young man to come himself to catch up with her. A smile slowly spread on her lips while her eyes started to moisten.

This man really loved her ... L felt very touched. She rubbed her wet eyes. She took her cellphone from the bag. She wanted to contact London and talked to him.

"Eh ... wait.. just a moment ..." Pammy's voice suddenly stopped L, who almost pressed London's telephone number to call him.

When L lifted her face to look, her expression immediately became shocked and disappointed.

Subconsciously, the cellphone in her hand dropped onto the sidewalk and cracked.

Caroline Wendell had just come over to London and spoke to him with a big smile.

"Thank you for waiting. I have settled our lunch bill. Now I must return to the hospital."

"No ... why did you pay for our lunch?" asked London in surprise. Caroline had excused herself to the toilet shortly after they had finished lunch, but apparently, when she returned, Caroline had already paid for their lunch.

"It's okay, it's modern times now. Women can also treat men to lunch. Let's just say you're here as my guest. Later, when I go to Berlin, you treat me to dinner. How about that?"

Finally, London could only nod. He had met Caroline in the St. George hospital earlier and look around the hospital. They then decided to have lunch together at the Italian restaurant across the hospital while continuing their chat.

In just two days, he could win over the girl's heart, and they talked a lot about her family. London was very certain when later Caroline and her father come to Berlin, it will be very easy for him to trap them.

"All right then. Make sure you and your father do come to Berlin then ..." London stood up as Caroline put on her doctor's suit and got her handbag from her chair.

"Ah ... thank you, the lunch was very nice. I have to go back to the hospital. Hopefully, your visit to London was pleasant." Caroline smiled broadly. She then kissed the man's right cheek and nodded. "See you later."

London only nodded slightly and let Caroline return to the hospital.

Meanwhile, outside the restaurant. L stood trembling, watching what was happening inside. Pammy hurriedly took L's cellphone that fell to the ground and pulled the girl's hand away.

"Shhh ... don't cry here. Let's go back now. You will attract people's attention if you cry here..."

L wiped her tears with the edge of her scarf and walked with a trembling body to follow Pammy, who pulled her hand while pushing Lily's stroller.
