Elena turned to Grace with a sad look. She swallowed her saliva before speaking. “News about Leon?” she responded.“I'm sorry, Elena, but everyone is talking about this. Claire Weber, who is a CEO, was raped by her ex-husband, and her ex-husband was Leon.” Grace clarified her question.Elena smiled bitterly. Even if all the evidence continued to point to Leon, she wouldn't just believe it.“I believe Leon wouldn't do something that cruel, Grace. He is a good man," said Elena.“But a lot of evidence points to him. Claire Weber's assistant even told the police that Claire had sent a message to her asking for help."Elena's gaze looked blank. Seeing Elena's sad expression, Grace stopped talking about Leon. She walked over to Elena and put her arm around her shoulder.“Elena, I'm sorry. I know this is hard for you, but I'm sure everything will be fine."“I hope so.”Grace invited Elena to enter the restaurant. In the midst of the many customers who came to the restaurant for breakfast, Ed
The restaurant manager chose to immediately fire Elena because the woman had made a big mistake. He didn't care whether Elena was the young master's favorite employee or not. He would talk to the general manager about Elena's mistake, and he was sure that the general manager would understand.Meanwhile, the Jensen family butler came to the police station to see Leon. The butler's arrival surprised Claire and her assistant, Emma.“Mr. Altafini?” Claire frowned. She remembered that the old man seemed to know Leon, but she didn't expect that they seemed closer than she thought.The butler glanced at Claire, and his gaze turned towards Leon. "Are you okay?" he asked worriedly.“I'm fine, Mr. Altafini. Thank you for coming here," answered Leon.Claire and Emma looked at each other. “Mr. Altafini, what are you doing here?” Claire asked."I want to see Leon's condition, I consider him like my own son. Whoever deals with him, they will also deal with me!”Claire was worried when she heard the
The police confronted Jane's bodyguards. The butler was present there, along with William and George.“We don't want to cause riots. We came here to meet Miss Jane Smith," said one of the policemen.Jane's bodyguards began to lower their weapons. Jane looked at the police in surprise. She believed his father was still in prison, so why were the police looking for her?Jane stepped forward to face the police. “What do you all want from me?” she exclaimed.Before the police could answer Jane's questions, the trio from the Jensen family appeared. Seeing their presence, Jane's gaze turned sharp.“What are they doing here?” Jane exclaimed angrily.“Jane, we just want to talk to you. We need CCTV footage in one of your houses," said William.Jane laughed bitterly. “Do you think I would help you?” She snorted.George took over the conversation. The man looked at Jane expectantly. “We know that your family hates us because of your late mother's death. But that's not true, we never harmed your
"Okay, you might feel that Daniel is much better than Leon in career, but Leon is much more loyal than your man," said Elena.Cora frowned at Elena's words. "What do you mean?"Elena shook her head. “No, it's nothing.” She didn't want to talk about Daniel or reveal the man's true behavior in front of Cora. The one thing Elena wanted to do now was get out of there and find a new job.“As I said earlier, I don't want to work for someone who has insulted my man. I'd better look for another job."“Okay, you can go now. I never force anyone to become my employee," replied Cora, looking at Elena with an indifferent gaze.Without saying another word, Elena walked away from there. When she arrived outside the door, her cell phone rang. Elena immediately took her cellphone, which was in her bag."Mother?" Elena muttered. She immediately received the call."Elena, I need 3000 dollars to buy your grandmother's medicine. The doctor said she needed additional medication and more intensive treatmen
Cold sweat flowed down Claire's body. Now she has to face the Jensen family butler. She felt like she wouldn't be able to win against the old man.“Leon!” A woman's voice caught their attention.Elena ran over to Leon, and they hugged. Claire stared at the romantic scene in front of her with jealousy.“Elena, I'm free! All these accusations are not proven," said Leon while looking at Elena happily."I know, Leon, that you are never guilty."Leon glanced at Claire, who was watching him secretly. “Mr. Altafini, you don't need to sue her.”Leon's request took the butler by surprise. "But why? She has reported you to the police with false accusations; she has even ordered her assistant to create false evidence, but why do you forgive her?"“Let her be free, the most important thing is that everything has been proven that I never raped her. Now everyone knows who the real bad intentions are.” Leon quipped at Claire.Elena glanced at Claire and saw the woman's annoyed expression. She didn't
A conglomerate in the city was holding a grand wedding party, which was only attended by people from the upper class. Leon was going to attend the party, but he came alone without Elena knowing.Elena continued to work at Cora's cake shop, but she also often receives offers of part-time work as a waitress to supplement her income. She often didn't tell Leon when she was working extra because Leon would forbid it rather than allow it. Leon just didn't want Elena to get tired from working too hard.For the past 3 days, Leon has been busy with his activities as a CEO. He had quit his job as a waiter in a restaurant, and as a form of cover for Elena, he continued to work part-time twice a week as a waiter or food delivery person.In those three days, Leon told Elena that he was going out of town on orders from his boss, even though he was actually at his house.A black Porsche arrived in the courtyard of the party building. The driver opened the door for Leon."Thank you," said Leon as he
Leon didn't answer Daniel's question and just stared at the man sharply. Elena actually had the same question as Daniel. Elena was sure that she would not meet Leon at the party, considering that it was a party that was only attended by people from high society.“This whore had seduced Daniel. She really is a shameless woman!” Cora exclaimed, pointing at Elena.Leon looked at Elena, and the woman shook her head as a sign that she didn't do what Cora was accusing her of.Leon believed Elena more because he knew that Daniel had been chasing Elena since they were still working at the same place.“Have you asked that bastard? Are you sure that Elena was the one teasing him? It could be that bastard did it, and he's just distorting the facts," replied Leon while glancing at Daniel. “I'm sure you never know what he's doing behind your back,” he quipped.Cora snorted. “I have much more believe in Daniel than that whore! Who doesn't want to be in a relationship with an established man? I'm su
Elena's expression turned sad when she heard the woman's words. She suddenly became inferior to herself."You're right, I actually don't deserve to apply for a job here," said Elena with a bitter smile.“You can still try even if you fail.”Elena just remained silent and looked at the woman while sighing. Even though she has lost her confidence because of that woman's words, Elena will still try. She didn't want to disappoint Leon by giving up before starting.The woman's turn had come. She entered the interview room full of confidence. She has a lot of experience working for big companies. Working for a company owned by the Jensen family has been a long-standing dream of hers.Elena sat looking at the documents she was carrying. "It looks like she's the one who will be accepted to work here," muttered Elena pessimistically.Not long after, the woman came out of the room with a sad expression. She still hasn't been accepted to work there.Now it's Elena's turn. She was the last candid
