Chapter 324: Chapter 324

Because Xenia Monroe was afraid that Leo Hansen might suddenly explode, she arranged to meet him at an open-air milk tea shop.

"Want me to leave? How could that be possible, Sierra? My love for you is as vast as the heavens and earth."

Leo Hansen sat across from Xenia Monroe with his legs crossed, his lips curving into a dangerous, ambiguous smile.

"Three hundred thousand."

"The most I can come up with is this much." Xenia Monroe bit her lip, her beautiful eyes glistening with unshed tears.

Hearing this, Leo Hansen immediately straightened up, looking seriously at Xenia Monroe for a while before suddenly bursting into laughter.

"I say, Miss Monroe, you’ve hooked up with such a rich man, and you think a mere three hundred thousand can get rid of me?"

"We’ve been dating for more than a year; we’ve held hands and hugged. Is this relationship worth only three hundred thousand?"

Leo Hansen knocked his knuckles heavily twice on the table, his expression full of dissatisfaction.

Xenia Monroe almost couldn’t hold back her tears; she really wanted to slap herself hard twice.

How could she be so foolish, deceived by this hypocritical beast in human clothing for an entire year, even considering spending her life with him?

If it weren’t for a chance discovery of his engagement, Xenia Monroe wondered how much longer she would have been deceived by his gentlemanly facade.

Thinking about the almost millions she has spent on Leo Hansen over the past year, Xenia Monroe felt nothing but hate for him.

"I tell you, Leo Hansen, earning money isn’t easy for me."

"I ask you to question yourself honestly, in the time we’ve known each other, the money I spent on you must be at least seven figures."

"If you have any sense, take the money and go back to Veldona. Right now, the most I can offer is three hundred thousand."

Xenia Monroe was about to go mad with anger, tears constantly welling up in her eyes as her hands clutched tightly together beneath the table.

"I say, Xenia Monroe, are you tossing three hundred thousand at a beggar?" Leo Hansen suddenly stood up, glaring at Xenia Monroe with sharp, wolf-like eyes that glowed with menace.

"Love it or leave it, don’t push me too far." Xenia Monroe finally couldn’t take it anymore, picking up the lemon water in front of her and splashing it directly onto Leo Hansen’s face.

"You make me feel sick." Xenia Monroe forcefully placed the empty cup on the table, left in a huff.

Just as Xenia Monroe reached the corner, Leo Hansen suddenly yanked her back, pulling her clothes off her shoulder, exposing her fair skin.

"What are you doing, let go of me!" Xenia Monroe hurriedly pulled her clothes back up, struggling to break free from Leo Hansen’s grip.

"Don’t put on a chastity act; I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve held you while we were dating."

"If you don’t meet my demands, I’ll tell that pretty boy sugarcoated stories about our year-long relationship..."

"Guess what, will he still want you?" Leo Hansen leaned in, whispering softly in Xenia Monroe’s ear.

His flirtatious, gentle tone was identical to when they were dating, but his words were utterly nauseating.

"Get lost, you lunatic!" Xenia Monroe broke free and raised her hand to slap Leo Hansen.

"Yes, I’m a lunatic. If I’d known, I’d have slept with you earlier; then you wouldn’t leave me."

"But it’s not too late. Once I have your body, that pretty boy won’t want you anymore; you’ll come crying back to me!" Leo Hansen grabbed Xenia Monroe’s wrist, his eyes bloodshot, a distorted and terrifying smile on his face.

Leo Hansen’s eyes were glued to Xenia Monroe’s chest, his hand abruptly yanking at her collar, trying to tear it apart.

"Get off, don’t touch me, help, help." Xenia Monroe was terrified; she never imagined Leo Hansen could be this insane.

But the corner of the street was eerily dark, not a single soul in sight.

The more Leo Hansen laughed, the more twisted his expression became, under the streetlight, resembling a maniacal, predatory killer with predatory eyes.

Xenia Monroe’s tears fell uncontrollably as she clung to her clothes to resist Leo Hansen.

Just then, a white sports car drove up from the lane, honking aggressively at the two of them.

With a screech, the car stopped just centimeters from Leo Hansen.

Leo Hansen thought the car would hit him and froze with fear, releasing his grip on Xenia Monroe’s clothes. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ N0velFire.ɴet

"Sierra, come here." Dylan Quinn swiftly got out of the car, holding a bottle of cocktail.

"You really are...too much!" Dylan Quinn looked at Xenia Monroe’s tear-swollen eyes and disordered clothes, his pale and handsome face turning several degrees colder.

"Bastard!" Dylan Quinn tightened his grip on the cocktail bottle, rushed over, and kicked Leo Hansen’s leg, smashing the bottle over his head.

Leo Hansen fell to his knees, the shattered bottle spilling over his head.

"You..." Leo Hansen twisted his face, gritting his teeth, glaring angrily at Dylan Quinn, then at Xenia Monroe.

Xenia Monroe shivered from Leo Hansen’s sinister glare, timidly hiding behind Dylan Quinn, clutching his clothes tightly.

"You still dare have designs on her?" Feeling the intense fear of the girl behind him, Dylan Quinn’s brows furrowed tightly, and he kicked Leo Hansen hard in the chest.

Leo Hansen, still recovering from the first kick, was hit a second time, the blow to his chest making it hard to breathe, cold sweat dotting his forehead.

Leo Hansen, kneeling awkwardly on the ground, saw Dylan Quinn’s fierce demeanor, afraid of further harm.

Gritting his teeth, enduring the pain in his chest and legs, Leo Hansen spat viciously, limping away quickly.

Seeing Leo Hansen leave, Xenia Monroe let out a deep breath, but at the same time, a strong sense of grievance and shame washed over her.

"I...I’m sorry, Dylan...I...thank you for rescuing me." Xenia Monroe bit her lip hard, trying to hold back her tears, but the big tears seemed determined to oppose her, continuing to fall relentlessly.

For some reason, Xenia Monroe especially didn’t want Dylan to see her teetering on the brink of collapse, nor did she want Dylan to see how she had just been bullied by Leo Hansen.

She didn’t want, she didn’t want Dylan to see any of her bad sides, nor did she want Dylan to know she had been in a relationship with Leo Hansen for so long.
