Leon turned his gaze to look at the two men. His sharp gaze scanned the duo Lackner in turn. Without saying a word, Leon left the receptionist because he had also finished filling in the data requested by the hospital.Max snorted at Leon's nonchalant attitude. "Did you see that loser's attitude? He's acting very arrogant," he teased while chuckling, but there wasn't the slightest smile on Edward's face.The more Edward met Leon, the more his fear increased. Max looked at Edward in wonder because the man was still silent."Are you okay? You're acting increasingly strange, you're becoming quieter," said Max.“Can we go now, Max?”"What? No, it's better to see a doctor first.”“No, I have to go now!” Without paying attention to Max, Edward walked away from there.Edward had arrived at the car first, and Max was walking behind him. When he was about to open the car door, Edward got a call from his father. He immediately received the call.“Where are you now?” Wilhelm asked.“Hmm, I'm han
"Don't do that!" Edward exclaimed as he took the cellphone away from his cousin.Max snorted. “Do you want to defend that loser?”“That's enough, Max! Don't act stupid like that, or I'll smash your phone!” threatened Edward.Max sighed and fell silent. He felt a threat from Edward that was not just a joke.Edward's gaze turned to Leon. "Please forgive Max," he said.Leon was stunned to hear Edward's words. He looked at Edward with wide eyes and couldn't believe that the man who was acting kind in front of him was Edward.Likewise, Max looked at his cousin questioningly. 'Does he have plans for this loser?' he asked himself.“Now call the janitor to clean all this up!” Edward ordered the receptionist"Okay, sir."Seeing Leon, who was just silent and staring at him, Edward took his wallet and took out 100 dollars from it. He gave it to Leon. "Here's a tip for you," said Edward as he handed Leon the money.Leon frowned. He really didn't need the money and intended not to receive it. He c
“Elena, what are you talking about? There is no way young master will want to meet people like us.” Barbara was so surprised to hear Elena's question. It was certain that the CEO's assistant would not allow Elena to meet her master."Why? I'm just asking. Who knows, maybe I might actually meet the young master and thank him," said Elena, still insisting on her request. She turned her gaze to Lady Sofia.“How is it, Lady Sofia? Can I meet the young master?” Elena asked.Lady Sofia shook her head. “You can't meet young master,” she answered.The hopeful grin on Elena's face faded, but she remained smiling. Barbara was right, young master wouldn't want to meet a nobody like her. Elena sighed. "Okay, Lady Sofia, thank you.”“You are welcome! I'll go back to my room. See you!” The beautiful woman stepped out of the room.Elena's gaze was still fixated on Lady Sofia, who had now disappeared from her sight. “She is a very beautiful woman, and she is close to the young master. Do you think th
Leon was silent as he looked at his ex-wife suspiciously. 'Is it possible that Claire already knows that it was the heir to the Jensen family who bought her office building?' he asked himself.“The heir of the Jensen family? Do you have any business with him?” Leon asked back.“So you know him.”“I can't answer your question until you tell me what your business is with him.” Leon pulled one corner of his lips, and he smiled grinningly.Claire snorted. “You're so annoying!”"Or perhaps you are the master's mistress?" Leon teased."What do you mean? Don't talk nonsense, or I'll slap you and make you shut your damn mouth!” threatened Claire while showing her palm to Leon.Leon just chuckled. “I know Mr. Altafini, and of course I've heard news about the heir of the Jensen family. Many women chased him, and they even forced him to sleep with them. Well, who knows, you might be one of them," teased Leon. "You must have been together with him in the same room, right?"Claire was shocked and
Lady Sofia smiled at Claire, who was looking at her. Suddenly, Lady Sofia's cell phone rang. She immediately took her cell phone on the table and saw that it was Leon who was calling her.."Wait a moment, young master is calling me," said Lady Sofia, asking permission to take the call.Claire paid more and more attention to Lady Sofia and became curious about the topics of the woman's conversation with the heir of the Jensen family. It seemed like she would have to find a way to stay there a little longer.“Miss Anastasia, may I join this table?” Claire asked."Yes, of course, Miss Claire," replied Anastasia. She and Lady Sofia had finished discussing their business, so there would be no important conversation that only they could hear, so she allowed Claire to join.Claire pulled a chair in front of her and sat down there.Lady Sofia looked serious talking to Leon on the phone. Not long after, their call ended.“Miss Anastasia, young master, will come here to talk to you. He's going
Leon pursed his lips and smiled mockingly. He turned his gaze back to Claire, who was looking at him expectantly."I already thought you must have a secret relationship with the heir," sneered Leon.Claire snorted. “Whatever you say, I just want to know who he really is. Can you tell me about him? Please tell me at least his name,” she implored.Claire put aside her pride for a while because her curiosity was much higher. Everyone knew that the heir of the Jensen family was a very honorable man, he would not waste his time on a woman who was not important to him. But that night, the heir came to see Claire while hiding his identity and face. If the heir wasn't interested enough in Claire, why would he do that? This was what Claire thought. Claire was sure that the heir had been secretly watching her for a long time and had special feelings for her.Leon folded his hands across his stomach with a teasing look. "So, you've actually met the heir?" he asked.This time Claire didn't want t
Leon glanced at the butler and raised his eyebrows, giving him a code to go. The butler obeyed and left. Leon's gaze returned to Claire.“Whether I come to a party or not is none of your business!”Claire pulled up one corner of her lips and smiled scornfully. “Do you think you're that important? Or perhaps you came here because Anastasia invited you? I still remember before you married that village girl, you tried to get close to the girls from the Braun family.”"But it seems like the rich women don't want to make you their gigolo, so in the end you chose to marry Elena. Luckily, you can be a sycophant and succeed in becoming Mr. Altafini's servant.”Leon was furious to hear all the insults from his ex-wife, but he tried to hold his tongue."If you think I'm that bad, then why did you ask me to come back to you?" Leon spat out his words and snorted. "You even slandered me as having raped you just to make my marriage to Elena annulled. Isn't that a very embarrassing thing?” he quippe
Every time he saw Leon, fear and guilt immediately enveloped Edward's heart. The man felt uneasy. His gaze looked blank as he stared around him.“They won't be able to catch me. What am I worried about?” Edward muttered convincingly to himself not to worry about it anymore.Seeing Edward's anxious attitude, Elora looked at him in wonder. "Are you okay?" Elora's soft voice and sweet smile made Edward move his lips into a slight smile. Although he couldn't deny that his heart was beating with worry filling it."My dear Elora, I'll excuse myself for a moment to go to the toilet. I'll be right back.” Edward asked permission to leave.Elora nodded and let Edward leave her. The man left the ballroom not to go to the toilet but to go to the parking lot.Edward got into his car and looked for his anti-depressant medication but couldn't find it."Hufttt! Did I leave the medicine at home?” complained Edward, sighing in annoyance. He leaned back in the car seat while rubbing his face in frustrat
