Elena waited anxiously for Leon's arrival. Her hands felt cold, and she couldn't calm down before seeing Leon return to the apartment. Renee rubbed Elena's shoulder and tried to calm her.“Elena, Leon will definitely be back soon. He will definitely be fine," said Renee.Elena's hand massaged her head, which felt heavy. "You don't know, Mom, even Leon once fought with that man." Elena was afraid that Edward's bodyguards would beat Leon like they had done. That's why she felt it was hard to leave Leon there.A taxi stopped in front of the apartment. Seeing that, Elena immediately ran over to it. Seeing Leon get out of the taxi, Elena's feelings suddenly became calmer.“Leon!” Elena exclaimed.“Elena.”Elena checked Leon from top to toe to make sure there were no wounds that Edward had given him."What happened? Did Edward try to hit you?" Elena asked worriedly.Leon laughed at Elena's question. “He didn't do anything to me. As you can see, I'm back in good condition.” He opened his arm

“No, Mother! Please don't make it difficult for Leon. 50,000 dollars is not a small amount," Elena protested. The woman stepped closer to her mother and stood in front of her.Renee snorted. "So you mean I just let you go to marry him without giving him any requirements?"“You can give him requirements, but asking for 50,000 dollars is not an easy requirement, Mother. Please understand our situation.” Elena's voice sounded hoarse, muffled by the tears that had collected in the corners of her eyes. Renee was silent, looking at her daughter with an annoyed expression."You don't need to cry, Elena!" Renee exclaimed."Elena, you don't need to worry, I will give your mom the 50,000 dollars." Leon's words shocked Elena, meanwhile Renee grinned.Elena turned to Leon while shaking her head. “No, Leon! That's a big amount, we don't have that kind of money.”“Elena, what are you doing? If Leon is indeed able to meet those requirements, why do you object?" Renee shouted.“Elena, believe that I

“Diego, why are you still standing there? Don't you want to join us?” Diego's father shouted at his son, who was still standing in front of the door.Seeing his father's call, Diego immediately rushed to join his family's table. Leon was still there, and the waiter was starting to run out of patience.“Enough! You have to get out of here!” the waiter exclaimed as he pulled Leon's hand out of the restaurant. He didn't wait for security to do it because he was furious with Leon.The waiter pulled Leon's hand roughly until the man fell to the floor. Some customers saw Leon and laughed at him. Moreover, Diego laughed with satisfaction at seeing the waiter treat Leon like that. He increasingly believed that he was indeed much better than Claire's ex-husband, as Claire always told him."Get up quickly and get out of here!" The waiter wanted to pull Leon's hand back, but Leon slapped his hand away. He glared at the man and gave him a warning.“I'm warning you, if you don't apologize to me, t

“Mother, then why are you more worried about what your friends think than us? We can't afford to throw a fancy party because it will cost a lot of money, and I'm okay with that. Please don't complicate our marriage.” Elena looked at her mother with teary eyes, she just hoped that Renee would stop putting high demands on her marriage.“Elena, but you are my only daughter. I don't want you to have a simple marriage," Renee replied, approaching her daughter and holding her shoulder."But I'm very happy with a simple wedding, I don't need a luxurious wedding party. And you have also given Leon a requirement to give you 50,000 dollars," said Elena, glancing at Leon.Leon's parents were surprised to hear Elena's words. Leon had never told this about them before. They immediately understood why Leon asked them to hide their true identities.“Elena!” Renee glared at Elena and squeezed her shoulder. She felt embarrassed because Elena revealed the requirement she had given Leon in front of Leon

“Lady Sofia?” Claire stared at the woman in confusion.Lady Sofia frowned. She might have met Claire, but she didn't really remember her face."What are you doing here?" asked Lady Sofia.“Lady Sofia, who was the man you were with earlier?” Diego didn't hesitate to ask directly about Leon.Lady Sofia looked at Diego intently. She was alert and would not put her master in danger. Moreover, for Lady Sofia, the two people in front of her were just strangers who had no relationship with Leon, so she didn't have to answer honestly."He is my friend," answered Lady Sofia after being silent for a moment.“Your friend? Is he the owner of this building?” Claire asked, which immediately caught Diego's attention.Lady Sofia shook her head. “No, he isn't." Without saying another word, she got back into the car, followed by her bodyguard. The car drove off and left Claire and Diego with their curiosity unanswered."It seems my guess is right, you must be related to the owner of this building, righ
