Chapter 22: Chapter 22

Alana bends her face from the moment she sees the arrival of two women who are now associating with Leo in the living room, while she sits there and listens and occasionally drinks iced tea.

"I didn't think you'd be getting married so soon, I thought you'd be waiting for yora." Violet said, calling out Alana's immediate attention, and violet was staring at her as if her words were meant for her.

"Isn't yora getting better man?" Leo said as if he were in denial about violet's earlier words, as if Leo would agree to wait for yora if alana hadn't come in her life and it made alana choose to look away in disgust.

"Yes, I made the mistake, because I had previously accepted the bastard who had hurt her beautiful young son." Violet said, stroking her long hair while Yora held her hand as if to say nothing to Leo.

"It's okay, honey, Leo should know that your ex-boyfriend abandoned you to some rich aunt who shot him and made him do it." Violet said again, making Leo put his cup of tea and then look at the Yora.

"Is that right? "Asked Leo, making yora bring out his sad face immediately.

"I don't know, but according to the word on the street what mama says everything is true." yora replied that he made Leo stretch out his hand and stroke the back of Yora's hand gently.

"Why didn't you tell me? "Asked Leo with a worried look on his face at his little friend.

"How can I tell you my problems when you have bigger problems than me. "The Yora made Leo eventually withdraw his helping hand, as though he knew he could no longer be relied upon in the present condition.

"That's not what I meant. "The Yora spoke as if it understood Leo's facial expressions.

"I just didn't want to burden you, 'cause I knew you'd never sit back and hear me being hurt by anyone." Leo said, again, as though he was a special woman in Alana's presence.

"I never felt burdened by anything in your life," Leo said, making yora finally turn to his smile, while Violet immediately answered Leo's words as though she were not going to waste a second of her life trying to make Leo feel sorry for them, and alana was too bored to sit quietly and listen to them, and alana put her cup of warm tea so hard on the table, Then stand up and walk straight up Leo's back.

"Honey, it's our time to rest and besides I want to show you something, can we go back to the room. "Alana made Leo turn a little in her direction.

"You can __"

"Besides, don't aunt Violet and yora need to rest in their rooms too, don't you feel sorry for their exhausted faces? "Alana's cut with Leo watching over them, Leo realized that a long time ago when they came over Leo immediately took them to chat and didn't realize they might be a little tired.

"I'm sorry, I've forgotten it, you can rest well then, the servants will take you to your rooms" said Leo, making violet shake her head right away.

"It's okay, we're not tired anymore. you've been resting in your hotel room. I might take a look at this house. The whole thing became like an old, sinister castle in the eyes of an aunt" she blurted while gazing at alana and alana seemed to know whom the Violet was talking about

"Well, you can do whatever you want and if you need something, you can call a waitress to help you out." said Leo, making violet and yora move out of her seat after Alana pushed Leo's wheelchair into their room.

"Do you mind taking me to my office" Leo said before they got to the room

"No, it's time for you to rest," alana answered Leo with the wheelchair.

"Then let go of my wheelchair and I can go into my own office." Leo said, turning the wheelchair but Alana held it with all her might.

"No, you have to go to the room at this very moment," Alana said after which she forced Leo to remove his grip and pushed him back into the room, after whom Alana had managed to lock the door on them and put it where she had rudely rubbed his face

"What are you putting a key in there for?" Leo said, making Alana stare into her chest a moment ago, put a key in there.

"To prevent you from trying to escape, I'm sure you wouldn't dare take the key in here," Alana retorted Leo after throwing his wheelchair back at the bedside

"So what's your reason for keeping me in this room?"

"I want to show you something" alana answered alana after putting down her bag and taking out a box, after which she gave it to Leo

"What is this?" Said Leo as he raised the eyebrow

"Open it, I'm sure you'll love it." alana made Leo finally open the little box that turned out to be a tie.

"What for? "Asked Leo, making Alana squeal.

"Of course for you to wear to the office, I went to the mall this afternoon and saw the tie, which seemed appropriate for you to wear." Alana blurted out Leo frowns his brow,

"You didn't use your card?" Leo asked

"I used my card" Alana answered

"I mean the card I gave you? "Leo asked Alana again, making alana walk to the side of the dresser and starting a blazer and heels immediately clinging to her body

"No, I'm using my own money. "Be casual Alana answered

"Why didn't you use my money? "Leo asked

"Because I'm giving you a gift, if I'm buying it for myself, I'll use your card, you know what I mean." Alana made Leo just flip his balls, when she thinks it's the same as if Alana used any money, Leo's been giving Alana one indexed card

"Well, I'll leave it to you," Leo said, in the end, it made Alana just shrug her shoulders.
