Chapter 843 Let Leena Go (Part Two)


    "I didn''t notice that at all. Anyway, forget her. When will auntie Leena be back? I haven''t seen her for a


    long time." People were all like that. They saw each other as enemies whenever they were together yet


    missed each other''s presence too when separated for a long time. It was obvious how much Justin had


    terribly missed Leena since thest time he met her.


    "It is hard to say. It all depends on when she canplete her graduation thesis. She coulde back


    after that. How about you? Did you go to see Mr. Ouyang today? Why did youe back so early?"


    Edward had seen the picture that Leena sent to him. Just as what he had thought, Leena chose a


    house in a quiet block to work on her designs.


    "We talked just for a while. I clearly said what I wanted to say. There was nothing else special. So, I


    came back. Daddy, do you think I should have had a dinner with him beforeing back?" Little Justin


    suddenly felt sad as soon as he spoke about his grandfather. It was not because that he did not want to


    have dinner with Leo. He was just not in a good mood to eat with him. He did not know what he had


    done was right or wrong. Thus, he tried to rify it with Edward when he asked.


    "Son, just as what I have said before, your mommy and I will never force you to do anything. Follow


    your heart and do what pleases you. I believe you can make it." Edward turned his head to Justin and


    smiled. He didn''t care much about what Justin had said to Leo and neither did he intend to ask him


    about it. He believed that his son could handle that situation very well. Justin had his own set of rules


    when it came to dealing with people.


    "Okay. Thanks, dad. Will mommye back early today?" His parents always worked overtime on


    weekends. He hadn''t seen other people like his parents who deeply enjoyed working.


    "You can give your mommy a call and ask her directly, dear." Edward also wanted to know whether


    Daisy coulde back early today. He handed his cell phone to Justin and hoped his son could get a


    good answer. It might be because National Day was approaching that Daisy had been extremely busy


    recently, working overtime almost every day. He felt his heart mildly ached upon remembering his


    gorgeous wife.


    "Hmmm. I''d better not call mommy now. Mommy is always busy before the National Day every year. I


    don''t want to bother her. She will be back after her work is done." Little Justin smiled as he put the


    phone aside. He was much more satisfied with the situation now than before. It was a relief not to stay


    alone inside an apartment in the Army Base during this time of the year. He had his father, his


    grandma, his grandfather and those uncles together with him now. And he could just wait for his mother


    with his dear daddy.


    "Okay. That''s fine. Let''s not bother your mother. Tell me what do you want to eat today?" Edward


    looked at Justin and felt the warmth spreading through him with his sensible words. It would be the


    National Day in two days. Fortunately, S city was not the capital. There was no suchrge-scale military


    parade in their ce as that in the capital city. Some small celebrations would be held there too on the


    National Day and those asions required high-security from the military. No wonder why his beloved


    was so busy recently.


    "As long as it''s food, I am all okay with that. Daddy. I''m not picky." That was true. If Justin had been


    really picky about the food, he would not have grown much taller than other kids of the same age.


    "Yes, I know. You like every food. My little foodie." Edward instantly knew where they were going after


    hearing his son. He happily turned the steering wheel and drove to the Tender Whispers.


    Morning just broke in Paris. And France had always been full of dreamy colors during this time of the


    year. Leena woke up early just as what she usually did recently. It was another busy day for Leena.


    She was ready to leave and was about to start her day. When she opened her door, she found herself


    shocked to the core upon seeing an unwanted surprise. Gerard stood outside the door with a huge


    smile on his face!


    "Good Morning, Mignonne!" Gerard first thought that he would wait long time in her doorway. But now,


    he couldn''t help but feel lucky that he had arrived early. Who could have thought that Leena would be


    ready to leave at that hour? Should hee a littleter, he might have missed her. He had never


    imagined Leena waking up too early in the morning. It was not like her at all.


    "Gerard, what are you doing here?" Leena said with a sharp tone. It was obvious that she didn''t like the


    surprising visitor she had. This was the same reason why she stayed in a hotel thest time she came


    to Paris. She did not want Gerard toe to her house. It was just that she had to stay longer in that


    ce for her thesis. She had no other choice but to live in her own house as staying in a hotel wouldn''t


    be asfortable as having her own space.


    "Of course. I''m waiting for you! Mignonne, I know that you will go to some towns today to get sketches.


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    I am here to be your driver." Gerard smiled. His sunshine smile did not fade even after Leena''s


    indifference.


    "Thanks, Gerard. But I have my own car and I can drive by myself." Leena locked the door, walked


    sideways and passed by Gerard. The past could only be a past. Any efforts to retrieve past loves would


    be in vain. She did not like him anymore.


    "Mignonne, wait! Wait for me! Don''t you think it would be much more convenient to go with me? I can


    be your driver, and I can take you to eat..." Gerard trotted to keep up with her pace. However, Leena


    ran quickly into the elevator and closed the door immediately. The door was closed right before his face


    when Gerard arrived. He didn''t even have the chance to finish his words.


    On the other hand, Leena was certain that she never wanted any rtionship with the same man


    anymore. It was the reason why she behaved coldly towards him from the very beginning. She did not


    want to give him any hope at all. The more expectation, the more disappointment. She was not a


    vicious person, nor had she the least interest in being cruel to others. Hence, she just ignored Gerard.


    She was deep on these thoughts when the elevator rang and the metal door opened. She was about to


    step out when her jaw was suddenly ajar in disbelief. To her full surprise, Gerard was standing outside


    again as he caught for breaths. His handsome face was sweaty as he had run down the stairs.


    "Gerard..." She opened her mouth multiple times but could not think of any word to express her


    helplessness. In the end, she decided to pretend not to see him and went to the parking lot. It would be


    hard to use him of following her since that was a public ce. Best she could do was to act like he


    wasn''t there.


    "Mignonne, I will be with you today! Please, give me a chance to go with you. At least, you don''t need


    to worry about safety problems with me around." Unlike most Frenchmen, Gerard did not have strong


    and deep-rooted self-esteem. He didn''t care much about Leena''s actions and remained with his


    thinking.


    "It''s up to you. But please don''t disturb my work." Leena kept a cold face as she got on her sport car.


    She did not even give Gerard a nce. Compared to who she was when they were still together, Leena


    had changed a lot. In Gerard''s memory, Leena was a very lovely youngdy who always had a sweet


    smile on her face. For a moment, Gerard doubted that he found the wrong person. How could she


    change so much? Nevertheless, he was still in a hurry when he got into his car and drove fast to cope


    with her.


    Automatically, Leena''s elegant eyebrows furrowed as soon as she saw Gerard''s car through the


    rearview mirror. She stepped hard on the gas and sped up the car as fast and as safely as she could.
