She had ess to the finest cuisine in the world and the money to buy everything she wanted.


    “Let’s eat,” Leon said once the dishes were served.


    He ced a piece of meat on Fiona’s te. The woman returned to being reserved and ate very


    gingerly, taking only a few bites at a time.


    While she was eating, Fiona’s mind wandered back to the issue at hand. Since Millie was adamant


    about staying in the neighborhood, Fiona would have to devise a n to move out.


    She still remembered how Millie asked her why she had gotten stic surgery to look like she did as a


    child.


    Millie was getting dangerously close to uncovering the truth. Worse, the girl Leon liked turned out to be


    her. No wonder Lois never seeded in winning his heart, despite trying to do so for years.


    Fiona had no idea what happened or why Leon did not recognize Millie.


    However, it would not change the fact that the other woman’s very existence caused her a great deal of


    anxiety. She would be doomed if Leon found out that Millie was the person he had been looking for.


    “We really bought a lot of things today. I wish I had a bigger house. I’m running out of space to store


    these things,” Fiona said, trying to sound casual. She then patiently waited for Leon’s response.


    After taking a sip of cold water, Leon replied, “You should get rid of your old stuff.


    Just organize everything, and then I’ll send people over to dispose of them.”


    Fiona was disappointed. What she really wanted was for him to offer to buy her arger house.


    She did not want to give up.All text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org.


    So, she suggested, “You live alone, right? Why don’t! just move in with you so that I can take care of


    you? I can cook. I’ll make you delicious food every day.”


    Leon gave it some serious consideration this time, but in the end, he still refused.


    “Julius is taking good care of me and the Sirius Vi. You don’t have to worry about that.”


    It was undeniable that he cared a lot about Fiona, but he was not quite ready yet to take the next step


    and live with her.


    After spending so much time alone, he had grown ustomed to the peace and quiet. Having Fiona


    move in would throw off that lifestyle.


    He knew that Fiona had been considering leaving the neighborhood in favor of arger home, but for


    some reason, Leon wanted her to stay there.


    Fiona tightened her grip on the fork and pursed her lips. Why did Leon not want her to live with him?


    He would not even let her leave the neighborhood.


    It was then that an awful thought popped into her head.


    Was it because Leon wanted to see Millie more frequently?
