However, he grabbed her hand and tugged her body until she was forced to bend down again. Then, he curled his fingers and flicked her forehead, which made her feel pain and complain that he did not know how to treat a woman. 'Just as I expected, he hit me.' Vanessa pout feeling aggrieved. "You must had the memory of a goldfish. How can you not remember the way after walking through it once?" As Vanessa rubbed the spot where he flicked her, she looked at him with an innocent and aggrieved expression. "I am not familiar with your home. It's so massive and has so many short cuts that are intertwined. How can I remember all of them after just one try? You guys should have made a road sign because one visitors enter, they won't be able to get out on their own." Instead of replying to her, Leonardo glared at her unhappy with her words. Pursing her lips, she asked, "Can't you just tell me where the direction of the mansion entrance is? Stop flicking my forehead. It hurts so much, w
"Mr Woods, what business do you have by coming here uninvited?" Leonardo wasn't even looking at Francis when he threw the question, this made Francis feel unhappy about the man's indifferent and arrogant attitude. However, he did not dare to voice that out. After that, Francis turned his gaze to Vanessa and looked at her adoringly before he explained," I heard that you brought Vanessa here and was worried that her straightforward personality would anger you, so I came to bring her back home. Young master Leonardo, if Vanessa has offended you in any way, I hope you can forgive her for my sake and those in our families. " It was then that Leonardo finally looked at Francis. He pursed his lips and sarcastically remarked, " For your sake? How shameless of you to say that." Francis was at a loss for words. With out sparing a glance at Francis, Vanessa answered, " Mr Woods, this is a matter between Leonardo and I, so it's none of your business. Please refrain from meddling in our
Once Francis' car was out of sight, Leonardo turned his head to glare at Vanessa. She hurriedly explained, "Leonardo, I'm not engaged to him. I admit that I used to like him, but that's all in the past. I don't like him anymore and I've informed my mom and grandma about it, so I don't even like him one bit." The only feeling Vanessa had for Francis was hatred. She wanted to grow stronger to deal with both Khloe and Francis, and avenger her daughter and family. She can't come out now as it was very dangerous. "Lower your head." "What are you going to do?" Vanessa asked while she looked at Leonardo warily. It was never something good whenever he asks her lower her head or bend down. "Do not make me repeat myself." Although Vanessa was angry, she knew she couldn't win over Leonardo, so she unwillingly lowered her head. After getting knocked on the head by Leonardo's delicate and long fingers, she heard his cold voice muttering "Muddlehead" 'How could she love a man like Fra
Vanessa quickly took over and pushed him towards the mansion. Once they were inside, Leonardo told Vanessa he wanted to return to his room and take a bath. He specifically ordered her to help him take a bath. She was pushing him towards his room when she heard that order and was so shocked that she forgot how to walk. Then, she stammered, "L-Leonardo, you want me to help you take a bath?" "Why are you stammering? Did you bite your tongue?" "Leonardo, I am a woman." Vanessa muttered." Do you think it's appropriate for me to help you take a bath? " After snorting, Leonardo rebuked, "You are my girlfriend and soon to be my wife. Why would it be inappropriate? " " Then... I'll do whatever makes you happy." She happily agreed and continued to push him forward like she didn't just forget how to walk. Noticing the spring in her steps, he turned his head to look at her. She was clearly shocked in the beginning, but why was she so happy suddenly? Leonardo told himself that thi
Vanessa left the bathroom in a huff. Leonardo glared at her back confused by her reaction. 'Beg? I don't beg. She will surely eat those words.' Outside the door, Vanessa covered her mouth and laughed. "Trying to play tricks on me, huh, Leonardo? You're a century too young to try that. Let's see who loses at the end!" When Leonardo came out of the bathroom, Vanessa was half laying on the bed while enjoying the fruit platter she was holding. She smiled at Leonardo when she saw him, " Leonardo, would you like some fruit? They are pretty good." However, he ignored her and rolled his wheelchair over to the bed. After putting the fruit platter on the bedside table, Vanessa hopped off the bed and was about to help Leonardo onto the bed but she was rejected by him. As she watched him get onto the bed with difficulty, she felt distressed. Then she made a comment, "You have to keep doing physiotherapy and practice walking to have a quick recovery. You might get muscle atrophy if you keep
When she came out of the bathroom, She was met with an empty bed and a missing boyfriend. "Are we not going to fight over the bed?" Vanessa muttered, " I'm not used to him giving up so easily, what a let down." If Leonardo ever heard what she was muttering, he would have foam at the mouth. What a sly vixen. ... Inside a dimly lit room, a man and a woman were making love on a large bed. The man was taking her ferociously, the room was filled with the sound of passionate love making and flesh slamming onto one another. Instantly, Leonardo sat up on the bed, a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. 'Tch, it's that dream again! What a torture.' he thought. In recent months, he has been having the same dream where he was entangled with a woman while continuously doing the deed, taking her like a starved animal. However, it was a strange dream because he couldn't see the woman's face. Leonardo was certain that in his thirty two years of living, he had never taken a woman so r
She dropped a peck on his cheek and ran away leaving Leonardo stunned by her actions, staring at her back as she ran. He stayed still for a minute before he closed the window and the cars drove away. It took nearly half an hour to get from the Quinn mansion to Quinn Empire Holdings. The company building had sixty eighth floors and was like the most astonishing pearl of New Haven's business industry. Those who were able to work at the Quinn Empire Holdings were the elite amongst the elites, the creame of the crop. Although the company's president; Leonardo is a cold man with few words and was difficult to get along with, Quinn Empire Holdings had great benefits and opportunities, and there was a bigger chance for promotion. Many who tried their best to enter Quinn Empire Holdings had also been dreaming of gaining attention from Leonardo, because that meant they would have a promising and fulfilling future. The president's office was located on the highest level of the building
He never thought that Vanessa would give him such things as gift. 'Did she make this herself?' He asked himself as he stared at the heart. According to the information he found, she used to own an art studio, so she is both talented and creative. In her words, her gift wasn't anything valuable but it's value was in it's meaning. Also judging by it's look, the quality was great. Leonardo was initially in a bad mood from not getting any sleep last night but now, he was in much better mood. Meanwhile, Toby was staring at Leonardo. Watching the scene unfold before him in shock. Toby was sure Leonardo was in a love affair because the latter was almost smiling. Once Leonardo finished his coffee and placed the cup back on the table, he suddenly noticed Toby staring at him, so he frowned while asking, "Why are you still here?" Toby replied, "Didn't you notice that I have been sitting here all along?" Then he added, "I'll leave after you finish signing those documents. They are very im
