Chapter 1425


    M asked tentatively, "Hello?"


    At the other end of the line, Leonardo directly called out her name. Her tone was just like that of that


    night, which was quite bad. "M? What’s wrong?"


    M felt a little timid when she heard his bad tone. "In fact, it''s nothing..."


    Before she could finish, Leonardo was going to hang up. "Then I''ll hang up, I''m busy!"


    "Wait!" M hurriedly stopped him, looked down at her daughter, who was waiting with expectations


    in eyes, and quickly said, "Holly and I are downstairs in yourpany..."


    Pa!


    The phone was suddenly hung up.


    M was a little confused, and then she felt deeply regretful.


    What a shame!

    She regretteding here without being invited. Since she had disturbed him, she deserved to be


    rejected by him with a cold face.


    M silently put down the phone and tried to make an excuse to exin to her daughter.


    She caressed her daughter''s head and


    said, "Holly, listen to me..."


    "Mr. Schain!"


    Behind her suddenly came the sound of greetings.


    It was time to get off work. A lot of whitecor workers walked out of the hall on the first floor. Now


    they all stood in the same ce and greeted Leonardo respectfully.


    M looked back and saw Leonardo striding toward her. He was wearing a high-quality handmade


    suit, looking extraordinary.


    She was surprised. "Leonardo?"


    When he hung up the phone just now, she thought that he was going to drive her away.


    Unexpectedly, he came down!


    Leonardo asked her, "Why are you here?"


    "We happened to pass by!" M said.


    Her heart beat fast strangely and she almost lost control when she was stared at by him. She added


    awkwardly, "Holly missed you and wanted to see you, so I brought her here! Sorry, I didn''t tell you in


    advance. Will it bother you?"


    Leonardo directly answered with action.


    He bent over to hold his daughter, who had already stretched out arms, and then said, "I''ll take you


    upstairs!"


    People around looked over, and M followed him with a blushed face.


    Although the employees in thepany were very curious, no one dared to gossip about the


    president.


    After entering the exclusive elevator, Leonardo raised a smile. "You missed me, Holly?"


    "Yes!" Holly nodded and held his neck intimately with her little hand. "You haven''t seen me for two


    days, so I missed you very much!"


    He didn''t know if it was an illusion.


    When Holly said this, M felt that Leonardo red at her.


    Leonardo kissed his daughter dotingly. "I missed you too!"


    Holly put her little head on his shoulder. She was reliable on him.


    The elevator went straight to the top floor, and Leonardo directly took them to the president''s office.


    The office was very spacious and grand, with simple and low-key decoration. In the center was a


    high-back chair.


    Leonardo carried his daughter to the leather sofa and said to M, "Holly and you take a rest first. I


    haven''t finished my work yet. I have to work overtime for a while!"


    "Alright!" M nodded.


    Then, the assistant knocked on the door and came in. ording to Leonardo''s instructions, he


    prepared tea and a whole table of snacks. It seemed that he had brought all the snacks and fruits in


    the tearoom.


    Holly''s legs were swinging in the air, and she was drinking fruit juice gracefully like ady.


    M thought, "He really wants to try his best to be a good father to make up for the paternal love he


    owed in recent years."


    Leonardo settled them on the sofa and returned to his high back chair.


    There were piles of documents on his desk waiting for him to read, but he did not pick up the pen


    immediately, but called the secretary first, and then he began to work.


    M couldn''t help but secretly nce at him.


    This was the first time she had seen him at work.


    His white shirt was new. The look on his face was serious and focused, showing the demeanor of a


    leader.


    Leonardo turned his back to the sun. He was well-featured, and there seemed to be a smile on his


    face.


    What was he happy about?


    M didn''t understand, just as she didn''t understand why he was unhappy before.


    Holly was very obedient and did not need her care, eating snacks happily and quietly. The two of


    them sat on the sofa, and only the sound of Leonardo writing could be heard.


    About half an hourter, Leonardo got up again.


    He picked up the coat on the back of the chair and said, "I''ve made a reservation in a restaurant.


    Let''s go eat!"


    M opened her mouth and wanted to say that there was no need for that. She came here because


    Holly wanted to see him.


    Before she could speak, Holly said excitedly, "Yes. I want to have a meal with daddy!"


    M had to swallow her words.


    They came out of the office building, and the neon lights outside lit up little by little, echoing with the


    stars.


    The one who was driving the car was still the secretary. Although he was not a full-time driver, he


    was driving stably.


    There was a traffic jam at evening peak, and the car speed was not fast.


    Aftering down from the viaduct, the car seemed to be driving on a mountain road, and the


    surroundings became quiet. Holly’s hair scattered, and M lowered her head andbed her hair.


    ,She didn''t pay much attention to the outside.


    The car stopped, and the secretary said respectfully, "Mr. Schain, we''re here!"


    M also got out of the car. When she saw the brightly lit restaurant on the hillside, she was


    shocked with her eyes wide open.


    She was so surprised that her expression was a little silly. "Why are we here?"


    Leonardo''s eyebrows raised unconsciously, and his mood seemed to be good.


    He said calmly, "Didn''t you say you wanted to know if the vour of the food here has changed?"


    M was stunned.


    It was just a casual word, but he remembered it!


    M''s heart rippled slightly as if a rock had been thrown into the calmke. It could not calm down.


    She kept telling herself that she should not misunderstand.


    Leonardo asked the secretary, "Have you booked the seats?"


    "Yes!" The secretary nodded.


    Seeing that M did not recover from the shock, the secretary quickly said, "Miss Jillson, the night


    before yesterday, Mr.


    Schain booked a seat and wanted to bring you here!"


    M was stunned.


    The night before yesterday? Wasn''t that the night she went to have dinner in Charley’s


    home?


    M seemed to have suddenly figured out the reason for his displeasure that night.


    Leonardo frowned. "Shut up!"


    The secretary didn''t dare to say more and got into the car.


    Leonardo picked up his daughter and walked into the restaurant. M trotted to follow him.


    She felt a little guilty. "Leonardo, I''m sorry. I didn''t know that you nned to have dinner together


    with us in the restaurant that night, so I went to Charley’s home with Holly!"


    Leonardo snorted as if he had forgiven her.


    M whispered, "But you didn''t say it in advance. If you doesn''t say it, how would I know that you


    have booked a seat!"


    Leonardo was speechless.


    Could it be called a surprise if he told her in advance?


    Leonardo was so angry that he almost exploded. But when he thought that his daughter was here,


    he thought he had to be mature and steady.
