Chapter 1416 Take Your Hands Off Me
Seeing the situation, Le decided to keep her mouth shut and just agree with Melissa. Melissa was
the only person that Le could take advantage of to get closer to Charles. If Le fought with Melissa,
she might end up never seeing Charles again.
"Ok, Aunt Melissa. I understand. I''ll leave the Dream Garden. But I really hope that you''ll ask me back
one day like you promised," Le said. She was trying to get on Melissa''s good side.
Melissa hugged Le. It was a weight off her shoulder since she no longer had to worry about this.
Le wouldn''t tell Charles or the police that Melissa was one of the kidnappers. Le leaving the Dream
Garden without making a scene was the best option for Melissa.
And Melissa had done the job Charles asked her to do.
Melissa thanked Le profusely. She remembered the times they spent together and started to feel
sorry for Le. Melissa didn''t want Le to leave.
"Le, don''t worry. Everything''s still the same! Even if you have to leave the Dream Garden, we can still
hang out like we used to. We can still go shopping and have a cup of coffee together."
"That''s true, Aunt Melissa. I hate to leave you like this. I''ll really miss you." Le feigned missing
Melissa. She hated Melissa so much and if she had a choice, she would never want to see Melissa''s
face ever again. The only reason Le wanted to stay in the Lu family was because of Charles. As long
as she could stay, she could grab the chance to get Sheryl into trouble and ruin her rtionship with
Charles.
Le went back to the Dream Garden.
She felt embarrassed. Now that she had agreed to leave, Le didn''t want to prolong her stay. She
didn''t want others to think that she didn''t want to leave. So she wrapped her shopping and returned to
the Dream Garden right away. As soon as she arrived, she started packing her luggage.
Melissa went back home with Le. She helped Le with her luggage.
Le lived in the Dream Garden for quite a while so it should take a while before shepletely moved
out. It was getting dark and Le was still busy packing her luggage, beads of sweat rolling down from
her forehead. Melissa couldn''t help but feel pity.
So she offered, "Le, it''s gettingte now. Why don''t you stay here tonight? I''ll help you with your
luggage tomorrow. You can''t possibly finish all of this tonight anyway."
Le''s initial response was to turn Melissa''s offer down. After all, she still felt embarrassed that she was
getting kicked out. But as she thought over Melissa''s offer, she realized that this night might be herst

chance to get to Charles. Maybe she could use this night to beg Charles and ask him to change his
mind. Maybe there was still hope for Le.
Le knew that there was no chance that Charles would change his mind but it wouldn''t hurt to give it a
try. She still wanted to see how important she was to him, if he still cared about her. Just a little
sympathy from Charles was enough to satisfy Le.
Le lowered her head, worried and anxious. She was both excited and nervous about her n.
She wanted so bad for Charles to change his mind.
As long as Charles could show her a little sympathy, she would do everything to fight for her future, her
future with Charles.
Melissa shook Le''s shoulder when she saw that Le was in a daze.
"Le, did you hear me? You can stay here for tonight."
"Ok, Aunt Melissa. To be honest, I''m pretty tired too. I can get this finished by tomorrow." Le lifted her
head and smiled at Melissa.
Melissa felt her heart soften at Le''s smile. She thought of all the times she spent with Le. Le was
way better than Sheryl who always disagreed with her.
With Le gone, Melissa would be all alone now. Something Sheryl would delight at. Melissa couldn''t
help but scowl at the thought of Sheryl''s satisfaction.
Melissa grabbed Le''s hand and walked her to her bed. They sat down. Melissa said in a sincere
voice, "Le, I know you''re upset about leaving. So am I. But it might be a good thing for you to leave.
At least, you don''t have to put up with Sheryl anymore."
Le rolled her eyes that thankfully, Melissa didn''t notice. Melissa was making it seem like it was so
easy. If it really was a good thing, why wouldn''t Melissa leave too? Nothing Melissa said could make
Le feel better.
"Aunt Melissa, I''m fine. I appreciate your concern for me. Sheryl is cunning and hard to deal with. You
should be more cautious. If you get upset or get in a fight with her, you can always talk to me," Le
said sincerely.
Melissa held Le''s hands as they chatted for a moment or so. When they finished, Melissa left Le''s
room.
Charles didn''t finish his work ande home until midnight.
Le ran downstairs as soon as she heard Charles open the door.
Charles was surprised to find Le still here. Le calmed herself down and caught her breath when
she saw Charles.
Charles was exhausted so without uttering a word, he walked past her and headed straight to his
bedroom.
Le was distraught. Her eyes welled up and she bit her pale lips as she grabbed on Charles'' sleeve.
Le was trying to stop Charles which irked him. He shook her off right away and red at her. "What?
Take your hands off me."
Le didn''t like it when Charles acted like this but nothing she could do could shake off her obsession
with that scowling face of his.
"Charles, I have something to tell you. Perhaps, we can go to your bedroom where we can talk about
it?" Le stepped forward after Charles shook off her hand. She was now standing on the same step
with Charles, facing him directly.
Charles scowled. Never had he seen such a shameless and gutless woman like Le. He couldn''t
stand her and he wouldn''t be bothered to even hide that from her. He red at her.
His gaze made Le shiver. She tried her best to remain calm but she was on the verge of breaking
down.
Le used to think that her biggest fear was Charles not caring about her anymore. But standing here
with Charles ring at her like that, she realized that her biggest fear was Charles hating her.
