Chapter 1439


    As soon as he finished speaking, Leonardo was about to bow down.


    But M was one step ahead of him. She gently picked up Holly and said, "You guys talk first. I''ll


    take Holly into the car and wait!"


    Afraid of disturbing the two of them, she took the lead to go to the car, followed by Charley and his


    lover.


    Leonardo frowned. Just as he was about to catch up, L called out to him. "Leonardo!"


    He had to stop again.


    L changed to another standing position. Her smile was much softer than before, and the corners


    of her eyes were full of charm. "You were busy with work in the officest time, so I couldn''t treat


    you to a meal! Why don''t we have a meal together when you''re free?"


    Leonardo said, "I''m busy recently!"


    This was a kind of rejection.


    In Leonardo''s eyes, he had introduced Anson to L to help her and had also epted her


    gratitude. At present, there was little connection between them in private, not to mention that their


    affair had long passed.


    He was really busy and had to go home for dinner every night.


    by''s face showed disappointment.


    Leonardo didn''t say anything more. He nodded to her and said goodbye to her before turning


    around to leave.


    L stared at his straight back.


    Seeing Leonardo sitting in, M quickly lowered her head.


    She was afraid that her emotions would be revealed, so she lowered her head to coax Holly to


    cover her emotion.


    Charley, who worked as a driver, was eagle-eyes. He stepped on the elerator and drove away.


    Leonardo was originally a little angry because she had left first. He wanted to me her and gave


    her a fierce re. But when he saw her bowed her head and concentrated on coaxing her daughter


    to sleep, his heart softened.


    He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but stopped on a second thought with a frown.


    When the car ran on the viaduct, Holly had fallen asleep in M''s arms. Leonardo was afraid that


    she would feel tired, so he reached out and took Holly into his arms.


    M turned her face to the window, and the neon street was reflected in her eyes.


    She hid her emotions well again.


    The zing sun was fiery.


    In the president''s office on the top floor, the secretary handed in the documents which needed to be


    signed after reporting the schedule, and saw that the president frowned slightly.


    It seemed that in recent days, the president was often troubled by something.


    The secretary asked, "Mr. Schain, are you all right?"


    "I''m fine!" Leonardo said.


    After ncing at his secretary who was concerned about him, he hesitated for a moment before


    asking, "Generally speaking, when will a woman be willing to marry a man?"


    The secretary was stunned for a moment and then analyzed, "Generally speaking, a woman will


    marry a man she loves or loves her. But women always seek a sense of security. Basically, they will


    find a man who loves them to marry! I don''t quite understand, but my wife said so!"


    The secretary was already married, so he had more say in this field.


    Leonardo was silent after hearing that.


    When he was rejected for the second time that day, he seemed to hear that she had said in a very


    low voice that she wanted to marry a man who loved her...


    While Leonardo was thinking with a frown, his phone rang.


    He nced at it and picked it up. "Hello, Anson!"


    After the other side said something, Leonardo slightly raised his wrist to look at his watch and said,


    "At noon? Well, I know!"


    After he hung up the phone, the secretary canceled the lunch schedule.


    It was time for lunch. Leonardo picked up his suit jacket, walked out of the office building, and went


    to a restaurant near thepany.


    Anson asked for a meeting on the phone. Recently, there were some problems with the newly built


    pharmaceutical factory. Although the problems were not serious, they still needed to be paid


    attention to. They nned to talk about it while having lunch.


    Because it was close , Leonardo personally drove there.


    When he arrived at the restaurant, he found that not only Anson, but also a beautiful woman who


    was very good at dressing, was sitting there. It was L.


    Leonardo frowned secretly.


    He looked at Anson.


    L took the initiative to exin, "I asked Anson to help me! Before, I wanted to treat you to a meal,


    but you always said that you were busy and refused me, so I took the opportunity toe over with


    Anson!"


    Anson and L came out of the court in the morning. When she heard that Anson invited Leonardo


    to lunch to talk aboutw matters rted to the pharmaceutical factory, she said she wanted to have


    lunch together.


    Anson didn’t know how to refuse.


    Besides, Leonardo had asked him to help L with her divorce case, which made him mistakenly


    think that their rtionship was very unusual, so he agreed.


    However, when he saw Leonardo purse his lips, he suddenly felt he had done something wrong.


    Leonardo pulled out a chair and sat down.


    It was a western-style restaurant. The steak was served soon. L ordered a bottle of red wine.


    Leonardo drove here, so he could not drink. L did not force him. She poured a ss of wine for


    Anson and herself respectively.


    The air was full of the fragrance of red wine.


    L shook the ss of wine gracefully, then lifted it and looked at him with sparkling eyes. She


    looked very excited and her face seemed to be glowing.


    "Leonardo, I won my case. Through the efforts of Anson, the court decision was made this morning!


    I want to thank you with this meal today. Thank you for helping


    I n


    me!


    Leonardo raised the ss of water beside him and said sincerely, "Congrattions on your


    freedom, L!"


    Domestic violence was the most shameful thing for married life. L had suffered domestic violence


    from her ex-husband. Now she divorced and got rid of this troublesome life. For women, this was


    something worthy of congrattions.


    However, such polite words aroused endless wild thoughts in L''s mind.


    During the meal, Anson received a phone call. There seemed to be a very urgent matter in thew


    firm that he needed to deal with, so he left in a hurry.


    The two of them finished their meals and left the restaurant together.


    The western restaurant was decorated in a Gothic style. Outside there were five concrete steps,


    covered with red carpets. If you stepped on them, you wouldn''t feel that the span of each step was


    toorge.


    However, L suddenly cried out in rm.


    It seemed that because her high heels were too high, she identally missed her step when she


    walked down.


    When L fell down, she was falling toward him. Leonardo couldn''t do nothing to save her from


    ruin, so he subconsciously reached out his hand.


    L took advantage of his power to fall into his arms.


    Leonardo held her and asked, "L, are you alright?"


    "I''m fine!" L said, but the expression on her face was obviously very painful.


    "Did you sprained your ankle?" Leonardo asked.


    L lowered her head and looked at her foot. She then said in a slightly troubled and helpless


    voice, "It should be! I''m in great pain now, and I can''t continue walking. Looks like I was so happy


    after the divorce that I didn''t mind my step when I walked. It seems that I''ll have to trouble you to


    send me home, Leonardo!"Material ? of N?velDrama.Org.
