Chapter 43: Chapter 43
"Barbara, you don't believe me that much?" Leo looked at Barbara.
His deep gaze was even more unfathomable, as if he was carrying too many complex emotions.Looking at his deep gaze, Barbara thought about Leo's every move during this period of time.
She suspected that she had thought too much, and shouldn't judge him as having sex with another woman just because of the back in that photo.
But after thinking about it again, Barbara hesitated. It was just like how she had never thought that Clare would betray their relationship but Clare in the end did it.
In the end, she was disgraced and had to leave her hometown.
Barbara didn't want to repeat the events that happened in the past.
Taking advantage that she still didn't have any feelings for Leo and the two of them weren't worried about each other, it was better to part earlier..
After thinking about it carefully, Barbara said, "Leo, it's not that I don't want to believe you, but that I really can't 100% believe you.
Besides, since you and I have no feelings, and few people know about our marriage, divorce doesn't affect either of us much.
Furthermore, with your identity, marrying again after getting divorced is not a problem at all. "
When Barbara said these words, she was very rational and clear—headed. She didn't show even the slightest bit of emotion, and only she herself knew that her heart wasn't feeling good.
In this period of time, in Barbara's eyes, Leo was extremely outstanding in every aspect , and was completely her ideal husband's candidate.
She thought that the two of them would be able to continue to live their life together."
That's how you see our relationship in your heart?" Leo frowned, and said gloomily.
Barbara bit her lips and nodded.Suddenly, Leo held Barbara's head again, and he lowered his head and bit her lips like a vampire to suck her blood.
Soon the sweet and bloody taste could be felt in both mouths.Barbara felt pain but couldn't push him away, so she pinched him hard.
She used a lot of strength, which made Leo feel pain, but he still didn't let go.
After a long while, to the point where Barbara believed that she was about to suffocate to death in Leo's embrace, he finally let her go.
He looked at her, his eyes unreadable."Leo, do you think that this will solve the problem? We are adults. Please face the problem head—on and don't just run away.
" Barbara's tone was tough, but her gaze was still soft as she looked at him.
Since she had spoken out all these today, she wanted a clear answer, but he had avoided the question in such a way.
Barbara's calmness and her indifferent attitude made Leo very angry.
He thought that even if there wasn't any love in this marriage,
it would not be so fragile.He didn't even know why she'd suddenly mentioned the word “breakup”."
Barbara, it seems that you have never taken my words seriously."
With that said, Leo turned around and returned to the study room.
Looking at his back, Barbara stunned for a good while.The words he had said?He hadn't said many words to her, and Barbara could still remember the majority of them.
The second night they lived together, he had held her hand and said that no matter what happened in the future,
he would not easily break up with her.Leo was not an impulsive per son, and he would definitely think deeply before doing anything.
Barbara hesitated again, could it really be that she was overthinking it? Maybe that figure was coincidentally like Leo, and it was actually not him.
Barbara took out her cell phone and went through Facebook again.
The strange thing was that the news of him being number one this morning hadn't appeared now, which made Barbara feel like she had imagined all those things that had happened."
Why is it so strange?" Barbara could not believe it. She continued to search the entire web with the key words, but she still failed to find anything,
"Could it really be my imagination?"At the same time, Leo also re ceived a call from Hebe, telling him the gossip story that Debby had made.
And the Zenith had already dealt with this thing .He should have known that Debby,
the trouble maker, wouldn't do those ridiculous things that day for no reason at all.
It turned out that he was once again fooled by that little girl before he knew it.
However, he now understood why Barbara would say those words.
His gloomy mood instantly relaxed.Just as Barbara was hesitating about what to do next,
Leo came out of the study room with a smile on his handsome face. Barbara was baffled.He said, "It's because you saw the morning news?"
Barbara nodded. He smiled. "You think I'm the man in the photo?"Barbara said, "Isn't it you?"Leo walked to her side and forcefully pulled her into his embrace. "
Do you still remember my ignorant little sister I mentioned to you before?"Of course, Barbara remembered it, and she could also remember the expression on Leo's face when he mentioned his ignorant little sister.
It seemed that he got much headache for his sister.Thinking about this, Barbara suddenly realized something, "
Are you saying that the girl called Polaris is your sister?"
"Then can I understand that you're actually feeling jealous for this thing?"
Leo replied with a question with a smirk on his face. Barbara, "..."Uh...Barbara felt much ashamed. She didn't even try to clarify the fact before making a ruckus with Leo for so long.
She was too far away from the standard of being a good wife.Leo laughed in a low voice,
"Then do you still want to be angry with me?"Barbara did not make a sound, and only cuddled up obediently in his embrace.
Listening to his steady and powerful heartbeat, she carefully reached out and hugged his waist.Leo lowered his head, reached out,
and pinched her chin, causing her to slightly raise her head,
"Look at me and answer my question."His warm breath sprayed onto her face, causing Barbara's delicate face to redden unknowingly.
She replied softly, "I'm not angry.""Hmm?""I'm just sad."Leo understood her, because she had been hurt so ruthlessly before.
There would definitely be some suspicions and fear in her heart.He kissed her forehead, "Barbara, no matter what happens, don't be afraid.
I am responsible for every word I said.”"I'm not…" Barbara said softly.
He had said that he wouldn't force her to do anything she didn't want to do, but it wasn't that she didn't want to, she was just a little worried and scared.
Barbara's faltering words made her look very awkward, but at the same time,
she looked much adorable, which made Leo laugh in a low voice again.He smiled and asked,
"What are you not?""I still have to go off on some errand tomorrow, so I'm going to rest first."
Barbara randomly found a reason and quickly escaped.Leo was normally a very attractive man, but when he was gentle,
it would be more difficult for others to resist him.Before truly making preparations to be his wife, Barbara felt that it would be safer to stay away from him. If not, she would not know how she had been played by him.
