Chapter 714
Looking at the beautiful little face in front of him, Leo William's heart was filled with guilt and pain.
He didn't know how else to give her a sense of security.
At this moment, a phone call broke the sorrowful atmosphere.
The man took out his cell phone and looked at it before answering.
"Bro, did you see the video on the internet? Simon had actually confessed to Mary Ann." The person who called him was his brother Brian.
"Yes, I have." Leo's profound gaze fell upon the dumbstruck Mary.
The girl was still in a bad mood. She looked into his eyes, gave a light snort, turned around, and closed the door.
A trace of helplessness flashed across Leo's handsome face.
"Brother, why haven't you taken action yet? If you let her have any affairs with Simon, things between you and her will become even more complicated."
"I'm trying to figure out a way to solve this, but I don't know what to do. Am I getting stupid on the emotional side?" Leo mocked himself.
"What else can you do? Find her mother and tell her about it." Brian thought that this was the only way to prevent their relationship from being affected by the rumours.
"Do you really think there's only one way left?" Leo sighed.
He was still not sure if this plan could work.
"All I know is that love doesn't wait for people. If you don't get her right away, she might really be in someone else's arms, just like me, I was secretly in love for three years, and I'm the one who asked for it. If I'd confessed to the girl earlier, then maybe I wouldn't have had to suffer so much and be single for a long time." My elder brother finally got someone he liked. As his younger brother, he was naturally very supportive of him taking the initiative.
"Okay… I'm asking her mother out to dinner tonight to show her what I want." Leo looked at the tightly shut door and finally made his decision.
As for Mary, who was hiding in her room and eavesdropping on her conversation, after hearing his decision, she revealed a smile.
She opened the door and ran to the man.
"Have you really thought it over?" she asked with a smile, her big pretty eyes flashing with delight.
The man put down his cell phone and put his arms around her. He pressed her lips against her forehead and kissed her again and again.
"I decided to stop escaping." Leo sighed.
"I don't know how my mother would react if she knew it was you." Mary wasn't sure what would happen, but she hoped that the God would help them.
"I'll call your mother right now and ask if she's free for dinner tonight." Leo released her and prepared to make a phone call.
"Okay, go ahead." The girl's eyes sparkled, and she smiled sweetly.
Leo secretly heaved a sigh of relief and called Belle Ann.
The phone was quickly answered and a beautiful female voice came out.
She asked very gentle with a smile. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
"Sister Belle, we're free tonight. Shall we have dinner together?" Leo asked sincerely.
"Why did you suddenly ask me out to dinner? Do you think a busy boss like you would have time to invite me to dinner?" Belle could not hide the smile in her voice, hence she was looking forward to it.
"It's nothing. I just need to contact you occasionally. I just happen to have something that I want to ask you for." Leo smiled gently.
"It's a real pleasure to be invited, okay? Send me a message tonight." Belle Ann graciously agreed.
After making the call, the man breathed a sigh of relief and turned around. Seeing the girl's smiling face, he shrugged his shoulders and smiled wryly: "I'm so nervous to talk to your mother. It's like I've done something bad."
"I never thought that the usually bold Leo would actually be scared. This is truly a new matter."
"How dare you make fun of me." The man took her in his arms as if he were punishing her, and held her against the wall.
Mary was not afraid, she smiled instead.
The man couldn't help but kiss her soft, small mouth, swallowing all of her laughter into his chest.
………………
Eliza returned to her living quarters, a single room.
She had lived here alone for four years.
She moved out of college.
Once, she had a warm family, with her loving parents. However, because of a car accident, her father went to heaven, leaving her and her mother behind.
Her mother was very beautiful. She knew from the day she understood words that her mother was even more beautiful than the celebrities, so after her father left, the men surrounding her continued to stream in and out. Her mother's eyes were all dazzled by the scene, and finally, she chose a man that she was very satisfied with, the man who loved her as he wished and gave her the best life.
So, when she was eight years old, she followed her mother to live in her new, grandiose home.
Her stepfather was busy, her mother was busy, they were busy with love affairs between adults, they flew around everywhere, leaving her alone in the house, which was free of food and clothing.
Although she had lived like a princess, she had lost her happiness, and she found herself lonely and did not like to talk to strangers.
Later, she moved out, went to boarding school, then went to college, she slowly walked out of loneliness.
Her mother had given the stepfather twin sons, further solidifying her position in the family.
Her mom spent more time taking care of her two sons, and she was beginning to ignore the sight of her eldest daughter, who had no love except for the money that was growing in credit cards.
She felt that she was used to living alone.
After meeting Richard, she realized that there were still many people in this world who were as lonely as she was.
Not because he didn't have any friends to play with but because he truly felt lonely.
She was glad that there was still a difference between her and him. At the very least, right now, he was loving someone that he would never marry.
But her heart was still free.
After tidying up at home, she went to the company to deliver her resignation.
However, her return to the company this time caused quite a sensation.
"I thought she was just a rookie, but who knew she was a king. Going out of the country and coming back, she became Big Star's girlfriend. How amazing!"
"Isn't it? How enviable…"
"Do you think she might have brought herself here?"
"Of course, why would Richard take the initiative to look for her?"
As soon as she returned, she immediately brought up her resignation. It seemed that she had really climbed up the tree this time.
