Chapter 620: A lesson
Such a well-behaved and well-behaved child couldmand everyone''spassion and love, and
Leonardo was no exception.
However, when the boy''s face resembled his half-brother, things changed.
The gaze hidden under his sses shone darkly, but it was fleeting, and Leonardo smiled slightly and
reached out to touch his head affectionately.
-You''re wee, Uncle and your mother are old acquaintances. There is no harm in buying you a
cake. If you want, I''ll invite you to the amusement park next time.
-All right, thank you Uncle Leonardo, then I''ll go first.
He took his fruit cake and quickly left the store.
Serena was a little worried, stood up and watched him get into the car, and did not feel relieved until he
closed the door.
As she was about to turn back, Leonardo''s voice came from behind her.
-In fact, there is no need to be so nervous. I told you a long time ago that I don''t hold a grudge, neither
with you nor with the boy.
Serena, -.
She was surprised for a moment, then turned to look at Leonardo with cold eyes.
-So, Mr. Leonardo, do you remember? I said a long time ago that I don''t want to be a victim of the fight
between you and Cristian.
Hearing this, Leonardo frowned slightly, his eyes really helpless.
-Why do you think of me in this way? It has been five years. If I had to fight with him, I would have done
it when he was in the Ferrari family, how could I have waited until now?
-So what do you mean now?" Serena scoffed, "I can believe that you were a coincidencest time at
the supermarket, but this time? You walked past the school on your way home from work and saw
Manuel, so you brought him here on purpose to eat fruitcake. You think he''s just a child, no
precautions, so you want to buy him? -
Seeing that he was still getting ready to speak, Serena interrupted him.
-Don''t be so quick to exin. There may be coincidences, but it is impossible for them to be repeated.
Even if you want to use me for your ns, you should converge your emotions and suppress your idea,
instead of being able as now to appear in front of me anyway, to approach me.
Leonardo''s gaze deepened and stared at her.
-What about him?
Suddenly, a question stunned Serena.
-He''s even approaching you anyway, why don''t you think he has bad intentions? And me, I only met
you a few times, and someone from thepany signed a contract with you.
-Just because you still love him?
Serena''s eyes widened, "Don''t talk nonsense."
Leonardo took a step forward, and the soft aura around him became a little terrible: "Is it nonsense or
don''t you dare admit it? Because you still like him, so no matter what he does to get close to you, you''ll
only think of him as a stalker rather than a schemer like me, right?
-I...
-I said I wouldn''t hurt you, let alone that boy. Even if he is Cristian''s son, in my opinion, he is only your
son.
-You...
Leonardo took another step forward, "Even if I really wanted to get close to you, it''s because I like you."
The sudden confession left Serena stunned.
Did he like her?
Five yearster, still...
-Then you left without saying a word. Did you ever think about my state of mind? Although you had no
affection for me then, we got along well. Not an older brother, but also a friend, right? -
Seeing her retreating step by step, Leonardo took another step forward. A man who has always been
soft now became a little stronger at this moment.
-He can, but I can''t? If it''s really important, I''m more qualified than him, right? After all, I hadn''t hurt you
then.
Serena was speechless with Leonardo.
She had thought of a thousand reasons why he had approached her, but she had not expected it to be
this one, and this time she had confessed it directly.
-Because I like you, I want to be close to you, so even if I use some means. Serena, that''s not too
much, is it?
After expressing these thoughts, Leonardo changed from what he had always been and looked at her
gently.
-Well, the time agreed upon with Manuel has arrived, and the boy is still waiting in the car. Don''t let him
wait too long.
Serena was a little embarrassed, how could this Leonardo make her feel...a little sad?
-Go ahead,‖ Leonardo gently grabbed her shoulder, then pushed her out of the bakery and said as she
walked, -I''m not your big brother anymore, so I have the same chance to chase you as Cristian. I didn''t
have the chance five years ago, but now I want to fight for myself. Before you are with Cristian, I want
to try. So don''t... don''t use other reasons to push me away.
Serena simply let him push himself to the front of the car, and then opened the door for her.
-Mom?
Manuel''s voice rang out, and Serena snapped out of it.
She turned her head and looked at Leonardo.
-Remember to fasten your seat belt and pay attention to road safety,‖ she smiled slightly and then
closed the car door.
Then he turned and entered the bakery to pay.
Serena sat in the driver''s seat, still all groggy, and Manuel was still holding the cake, blinking and
looking at her with an innocent expression.
-Mom, what''s wrong with you?
Serena shook her head in return:
-I''m fine, let''s go home.
So Serena took Manuel home, and as she got on the elevator, Serena couldn''t help but say, -I
remember I told the school teacherst time, and the teacher passed it on to me too, that she wouldn''t
let strangers take you. Today, what happened? -
After speaking, Serena looked at Manuel, his expression was no longer as soft as before, but became
very serious.
-You took the initiative to go with Uncle Leonardo, didn''t you?
Because they had already seen him.
Manuel raised his head and met Serena''s serious eyes, a guilty expression suddenly appeared on his
small face, -Mom, Mom... -Is it true?

-Serena''s voice had also be stern, and she sounded like a stubborn mother.
-Mom..." Manuel was a little frightened, afraid to speak, and slowed the movement of holding the cake
in his hand.
-Why?" Serena looked at him helplessly, "Even if you saw him, can''t you know my attitude? Why do
you want to go with him? Why do you want to get into his car? I already know that you went out
voluntarily and that he did not force you."
Manuel lowered his head. He had never dared to answer, and was silently reprimanded.
