Chapter 66: Chapter 66
"Boy, long time no see!" A middle—aged man who looked to be around fifty years old walked over to greet Leo.
As he greeted him, he patted Leo's shoulder, as if he was familiar with him."Good evening, uncle Trump!" Leo nodded and responded politely.
They conversed for a short while, and it seemed to have something to do with Leo's mother.
Barbara could not help but perk up her ears and want to know more about Leo's family. Unfortunately, in a short conversation,
it was almost the elder had kept talking, while Leo merely said a few words.
Leo seemed to really speak very little, especially in social occasions. When he stayed with her, it seemed to be a little better.
Barbara could not help but think, could it be because she said too much, that was why he was forced to say that much?"This is?"The middle aged man's topic suddenly shifted onto Barbara.
Barbara smiled politely, and just as she was thinking about how to answer him, she heard Leo say, "this is my wife."
"You, you're married. how can I not hear about it?" Uncle Trump was very surprised.Compared to the uncle Trump's surprise,
when Barbara heard Leo introducing her in such a way, her heart throbbed. She was very happy, but very restless. This uncle Trump obviously knew his family members …In that case,
did he inform their relatives about their relationship?But, would Leo's parents like her? Could they go all the way to the end?"Not bad, Leo.
The girl is very pretty. But you suddenly got married, your father doesn't know it, right? Ha—ha, didn't he always want you to marry Debby …
""Uncle Trump." Leo suddenly stopped him, his voice was a little harsher than before. , "I have something else to do. I'll go first."Before he finished,
Leo immediately dragged Barbara away.However, Barbara still heard what the uncle Trump said clearly.Marry … Debby.
What did he mean?However, before she could even ask him, a few more men came over to greet Leo. However, Barbara was no longer in the mood to listen to what they had chatted."Mr. Young, Uncle Tim and the others have been waiting for you inside for a long time."
After a long while, Todd walked over and said.Leo nodded, and turned to look at Barbara, only to discover that Barbara was in a daze,
so he asked, "What's wrong?"Barbara came back to reality and shook her head, smiling awkwardly, "Nothing."Leo frowned, as if he did not believe Barbara's answer.
He looked down at her feet, but the hem was too long, so he couldn't see them. He looked up and said gently, "You must be tired for wearing high heels.
There's a resting area over there. Go and sit for a while."Leo was gentle and considerate, Barbara could not find a hint of deceit and falsehood in his deep eyes.
She could not help but feel a little vexed at herself for doubting everything because of that sentence. Didn't he already marry her? What else to doubt?
After thinking about it, Barbara nodded, looked at him and laughed, "I'm not a child anymore, I will take care of myself. "Go ahead and do your work. "To be honest, Barbara did not wish to rely too much on Leo.
If Leo left her now, what would she do? If a woman was too dependent on a man, she would lose herself.Her mother was a prime example.
It was said that when her mother had married into the Jones, their relationship had been quite good.
Later on, it was because her mother had no opinion of her own that her relationship gradually turned into what it was like later on.
When Barbara was very young, she often saw her mother hiding in the room crying silently.
At that time, she had thought to herself that she must protect her mother and sister when she grew up.
However, those who she wanted to protect had mercilessly abandoned her as if she was their abandoned chess, as if they had never cared about her.
Barbara didn't want to think about the bad things of the past, but for some reason, she had been thinking about a lot these past few days.
Looking at Leo's leaving figure, Barbara clenched her fists quietly.She didn't want to be tied up in the past. She had him now.
The banquet continued. The music and the neon lights alternated, and the sounds of conversation filled the air. It was very lively.
This circle of celebrities was not big enough. They were all acquaintances. Barbara was an unknown person who appeared here,
which caused a huge commotion, and that was when she entered the banquet with Leo.After Leo left, there were also some people who cast furtive glances at her. They only looked at her from afar.
However, no one approached him to strike up a conversation.Tonight, they were not the most outstanding couple, because the real protagonist should be Leo Young, the legendary leader of Zenith.
However, up until now, they had not seen his appearance, which was truly mysterious.Barbara who had no one to disturb her sat in the resting area,
the moment she sat down, a waiter brought her some snacks and coffee, "Mrs. Young, this is what Mr. Young asked me to prepare for you. "Please enjoy yourself."
Barbara nodded and laughed, "Thank you!"seemed that Leo was worried that she did not eat tonight, so he ar ranged him to send her some snacks so quickly.
It was already past nine in the night, so Barbara was really hungry. She could not help but take a piece of dessert and threw it into her mouth.Well,
the dessert tasted good. It was crispy and sweet.She took another piece, and just as she took a bite, a person sat in front of her.
"Barbara, our fates are not shallow, I didn't expect to meet you here. Or did you come here specifically for me? ""Why, why are you here?
" Seeing Clare Smith's sudden appearance, Barbara could not help but frown,
the dessert that she thought was extremely delicious instantly made her unable to swallow.Clare Smith chuckled, and his gaze was arrogant and disdainful, "Shouldn't I ask you why you are here?"
Barbara felt that Clare Smith's smile was extremely disgusting, but she could not find any reason to refute him. It's not surprising that he came here.
The Smiths was a famous family, but she was just a small employee of the Wing.But Barbara did not want to get in touch with this person either.
The man in front of her was the hero she had once hoped to see, but now, he was the one she didn't want to see the most in her life.
He was like malignant tumour, just touching it, there would be disaster.She did not want to take care of him anymore, she got up and was about to leave when Clare grabbed her, "Barbara, sit down,
I want to talk to you."Clare raised his voice intentionally, which made everyone around them notice her. For a while, she became the focus again.
Barbara didn't want to be other's topic, so she sat down obediently and said coldly, "Clare Smith, I have nothing to say to you.
Please don't bother my life again. "Hearing it, Clare Smith laughed, then he stood up suddenly and looked down at Barbara from above.
After that, he smiled, in the way that he thought he was very handsome, and then he said, "But I do, follow me."This smile, was so arrogant and vulgar that it made Barbara feel disgusted.
