"I don't mean to defend Claire, but I think you can wait 3 months to see the progress of the collaboration. If there are still no results, then the best decision is to end it," Leon gave his opinion.Anastasia sighed. "You're right, I'll give the company some time."After entering the VIP room, Leon remained there until the party ended. When Claire wanted to go home, she looked around first with the intention of looking for her ex-husband."Hmm, where is he?" muttered Claire who couldn't find the man's whereabouts."Mrs. Claire, let's go home now!" ask Emma. She realized that Claire seemed to be looking for someone. Emma mentioned it too. "It looks like the man has come home," she said.Claire immediately looked at Emma with a frown. "I'm not looking for anyone," she said evasively."I didn't say that you were looking for someone," replied Emma, shrugging her shoulders."Let's go home, Emma!"*** Leon felt bored with his routine. He wanted to go somewhere new. The hustle and bustle of
The girl threw a rope at Leon, and Leon climbed out of the hole. He managed to get out of there."Thank God, I can finally get out!" said Leon as he lay down on the ground. His breathing sounded irregular.Leon glanced at the girl beside him. "Thank you very much! I already owe you my life," he said with a smile.The girl just nodded and didn't say anything. Leon frowned as he watched the girl, who seemed shy.Leon sat down and asked her. "Oh by the way, I'm Leon. What's your name?""I'm Elena," Elena answered while looking at Leon."Do you live around here?" Leon asked."Yes, my house is not far from here," replied Elena. She noticed the wounds on Leon's hands and feet. "Your hands and feet are injured, I can treat them.""Really?"Elena nodded. "Yes. Let's go to my house. I'll treat your wounds there."Elena walked first, and Leon walked after her. They arrived at a small hut in the middle of the forest. Leon looked around Elena's house to see the girl's neighbors, but she didn't see
"My biological father has passed away, and my mother married a man. My step father doesn't like Grandma living with him, so I have to stay here with Grandma. We can't afford land in residential areas." Elena explained her situation with a tight feeling in her chest. She averted her gaze from Leon, hiding her teary eyes."Do you want to move from here?" Leon asked."Of course! Who really wants to stay here forever?" Elena said with a bitter laugh.Leon could understand what Elena was feeling. The girl wiped the corners of her eyes to make sure there weren't any glints of tears in her eyes and then looked up at Leon."Do you live in the city?" Elena asked.Leon nodded. "Yes, I was born and raised in the city. I've never lived in a village, especially in the middle of a forest like this.""I wish I could be like you. If I lived in the city, surely I would be able to get a better job than just being a farmer.""Maybe one day you can move there.""I hope."Leon checked the time on his cell
Renee took Elena's hand and led her into the house. Meanwhile, Leon was still waiting outside."Tell me, who is that man?" Renee asked while looking at Elena sharply. She grabbed Elena's wrist."Hmm..." Elena looked hesitant to answer her mother's question. But seeing her daughter, who was blushing, Renee could guess it."How dare you date a poor man? I told you a long time ago to only date rich men! That's the only thing that can change your life! Don't you wish you could get out of the forest?" Renee cursed at her daughter."Of course I want to get out of the forest, so I will go to the city and look for work there. "I'm sure I'll be fine with him," said Elena.Renee snorted. "Elena, Elena. If you lived in a city with a man working as a waiter in a restaurant, do you think you would be happy? It's even possible that your life will be much worse than in the forest!"Elena shook off the grip of her mother's hand. "Stop insulting him, Mother! I can feel he is a good man, even much bette
After arriving in Auckland, Leon and Elena went straight to their apartment. One day earlier, Leon asked the Jensen family's butler to find a common apartment for him, and he also told his entire family to hide Leon's true identity from Elena. He just wanted to see Elena love him for who he was, not for his wealth. Even more so after he saw how greedy Elena's family was.Leon unlocked Elena's apartment, and the woman immediately entered the room excitedly. "I like this room!" Elena exclaimed.Leon would also live in the apartment, but they wouldn't live in the same room. Leon's room was right next to Elena's."I'm so glad you like it," Leon said.Elena walked over to the bed and lay down there. She was very moved to feel a soft bed because, before, she only lived in a hut. Even this room was wider than the hut."Elena, you can take a rest. You must be so tired."Elena rose from her bed. "What about my job? I want to work soon. Can you help me apply for a job?" she asked.Leon nodded.
Hello, I'm Limeberry Author. The first, I'd like to say thank you to my loyal readers who still follow the journey of Leon. I'm sorry about my imperfect chapters that maybe aren't good but I'll always try my best. I've edited chapters 87-94. If you still can't see the changes, you can remove this book from your library, and then add it again. And the second, about the location country in this story. I've mentioned England once, but now I changed it to New Zealand for some reason. Thank you so much for reading this note, I promise I'll bring the better chapters for you. Love Limeberry
"Tell me, who is that woman? Why was she talking to you like that?" asked Elena, eyeing Leon curiously."She is Claire, my ex-wife. She left me because I couldn't give her what she wanted. As you know, I'm just a poor man," explained Leon. He spoke frankly to Elena."And what did she get after leaving you? Does she earn a lot of money? I don't think poverty is a reason to leave a man," responded Elena."If you want to leave me because I'm poor, you can do that too."Hearing Leon's words, Elena held the man's hand tightly. She looked at Leon with a sharp gaze, not wanting to hear those words come out of his mouth again."What are you talking about? I will not leave you just because of your poverty. We can work together," Elena whispered."I'm so lucky to have you, Elena." Leon's eyes filled with tears as he looked at Elena. He promised that one day he would give her the best life after revealing his true identity. Currently, Leon would continue to hide his identity.Arriving at his apar
Max immediately approached Edward and helped his cousin. "Are you all right, Edward?" Max asked.Instead of accepting his cousin's help, Edward took his hand off Max. He stood up and looked at Leon with a look full of courage. What's more, his opponent was only Leon, whom he considered a useless guy."How dare I? Who do you think you are?" Edward challenged Leon. "She already broke my glasses, and I only made her an offer to sleep with me if she couldn't replace it with money. Is it wrong? You're acting like a hero here, but everyone knows that you're just a loser!"Leon's hands clenched tightly when he heard Edward's words. How dare that man want to ask Elena to sleep with him? Leon's eyes darkened, and his jaw tightened with veins bulging there.Leon moved forward and pulled Edward right by the collar of his shirt. He looked at Edward with a deadly gaze."I warn you that she is my girlfriend! I was patient enough when you took Claire from me, but this time I will really kill you if
