CHAPTER 350

Linda felt a mix of surprise and confusion as she stared at Romeo, standing there in the middle of the chaos. "Romeo!" she began. "What are you doing here in the capital?"

Romeo hesitated, his eyes darted around as if looking for an escape. "Ugh... I ugh… nothing," he mumbled, scratching his head. "Some of my street friends said that this wedding is going to be a big deal, so I didn’t want to miss out on the fun, the nice food, gifts, and the ladies."

He said it in a way that showed he wasn’t sure of himself, his shoulders were slightly hunched, and his gaze was not quite meeting hers.

Linda raised an eyebrow, with a small smile tugging at her lips despite the stress. "Come on, Romeo, speak the truth." she said, with her tone softening. "You came here because you were worried about me."

Romeo shifted uncomfortably, as his face turned a bit red. "No… I mean, yes… part of it." He stammered, trying to keep his cool. "Hey, you have started work. Is there anything I can help you with?"
