Chapter 369: Chapter 369
Chapter 369 He Was My Housekeeper
Leon really forgot his wallet and cell phone. After taking a shower, he hurried to Rachel's house. He didn't even see the text message sent to him earlier.
"How would I know that I would forgot my wallet? Even if you say that I am stingy, I wouldn't go and declare that I would treat someone if I don't have the money!" Leon exclaimed cold.
"That may not be true. It is not impossible for men to live in such way these days. How can you prove that you won't rely on my sister for a living in the future?" Tina pouted her lips. She hated this kind of men a lot.
"Why do I have to prove to you that I can afford to pay for this meal when I've bought you clothes that cost thousands of dollar?" Leon answered. His voice was still cold.
In fact, what Leon helped Tina with was not just a piece of clothing. There was the crystal bracelet as well, and the opportunity to enter the finance department of Flying Group.
Although he did it to help ease Rachel's worries, there would be no denying that if it weren't for him, Tina wouldn't be where she was today.
"Oh, so you want to talk about the clothes? Don't worry! When I get paid this month, I'll give you your money back!" Tina clenched her teeth and directly stared at his eyes.
"I didn't ask you to pay me back. I'm just saying that I don't need you to pay for the meal we had."
Leon didn't want to explain anymore, so he got up from his seat.
When Tina saw that Leon was leaving, she got angrier. She thought Leon was going to dump the mess on her sister when he slipped away as if nothing happened.
She didn't care about the cost of the meal either. She could pay for it. It's just that Leon was too shameless. He couldn't act like a true man at all.
"What are you doing? Are you really going to leave like this without paying?" Tina questioned.
"Tina, stop being rude!" Rachel casted a warning look at Tina.
The last thing she wanted was for the two closest people in her life to hate each other, and she didn't want her sister to offend Leon anymore.
"Rachel, do you still believe him? He keeps saying that he wants to treat you for a meal, but as a result, he didn't want to pay the bill and just leaves. How can a man like this who refuses to pay for his meal deserve your trust? "
"I'm sure he just forgot his wallet and cell phone. It's not like he didn't want pay for dinner."
Rachel was much more sensible than Tina. She knew that although Leon was not rich, he wasn't so poor either that he cannot afford to treat other people for a meal.
Meanwhile, Leon looked back coldly at Tina. "Although I forgot my wallet and cell phone, I already said today was my treat. And I have a solution for this."
In fact, he could ask for Fort to deliver his wallet to him within ten minutes, just like the last time. But there was no need for Fort to do that this time. This could be easily solved by Hugo alone.
"What solution?" Tina asked.
"Someone will check out for me." Leon responded.
"Oh, someone will check out for you? You are going to borrow money from an acquaintance." Tina sneered.
"You can interpret it as you like." Leon said calmly.
"Rachel, you see?! Such a man is not good enough for you!" Tina was so disappointed when she said this. She felt like Leon's conduct was unlikable. He can't even afford to treat the woman he loved for a proper meal.
Rachel no longer wanted to speak. Her judgment would not easily affect Tina anyway.
"I'll pay for it. I'm sure you left your wallet and cell phone at home. It's all right. It's my treat." Rachel looked at Leon her eyes bright and gentle as water.
The sensible Rachel thought that Leon had bought her a lot of gifts and helped her so much before, so it didn't matter if she treats him today.
"It's fine. I'll pay for it, and you have to use your money to pay for the rent. Anyway, it's an opportunity for me to say hello to Hugo." Leon touched Rachel's head with a spoiled look in his eyes.
"You want to borrow money from Mr. Hugo? Why is your face so thick?! If Mr. Hugo lends you money, I'll chug this bottle of beer!"
Tina was going to get it this time. She didn't know how to drink, and she had never drink a bottle before. Even if she didn't throw up, she was going to choke to death.
"There is no need for that." Leon took a calm step forward and went to Hugo and Ogden's table not far away from theirs. "Hugo, I forgot to bring money. You can pay for my table." Leon turned and left after that.
Tina watched this scene and her heart shook in disbelief.
Was it possible to that easy ask someone else to pay for you? Not to mention, the other man was the famous Chairman of the Flying Group, Hugo!
"You really have the nerve to arrogantly ask Mr. Hugo pay for you? Let's see if he didn't ask someone to beat you up!" Tina angrily said this but in truth, she was a little worried that Leon might get beaten up for real. After all, she had to think about her sister even though she didn't care about Leon.
"Hugo wouldn't dare." Leon smiled faintly.
Even if someone would lend Hugo ten guts, he wouldn't dare do anything to Leon. He may be the acting chairman of the company, but in reality he was just Leon's housekeeper.
Tina really thought that Leon was crazy. How dare he call her boss so informally?
"You're going to embarrass me to the Flying Group!" She was worried that Leon's offending behaviour towards Mr. Hugo will affect her future in the company.
"What are you scared for? You are safe for the time being. No one would dare to fire you in the Flying Group." Leon said as a matter-of-factly.
"Of course!" Tina suddenly thought of Ogden and got distracted. "Could it be him? Do I want to know him or not? Should I forget about it or should I wait and see? But it will be too embarrassing if she recognized the wrong person. "
Up until now, Tina was still in the dark that it was Leon who really helped her, not the so-called confidant she had in her mind.
Leon approached Rachel and smiled gently at her. "Rachel, let's go home."
Rachel smiled back. "Okay. By the way, tonight's barbecue, I liked it very much. I will come often in the future."
"Rachel, I'm afraid that we can't leave yet. Leon hasn't pay for the meal yet. Boss Hugo can't settle it for him. It's good if you don't rely on him anymore." Tina frowned and sighed. "You know what? I'll just pay for it! Why do I have to deal with such unreliable brother-in-law? What a bad luck I had!"
However, Tina suddenly saw Hugo, who was standing at the cashier of the restaurant, smiled and held out an "ok" gesture to Leon.
Tina was completely confused and immeasurably shocked!
What exactly is the relationship between Leon and Hugo? It couldn't as simple as she thought!
