Chapter 84 Leo Mason
When I arrived, Leo was already there. He didn’t even stand up to greet me, he just pointed at a seat
and asked me to sit.
I sat down, “What’s up?”
The looks he gave me were not loving anymore, it was cold, my heart was cold too.
He spoke up, “Jennie, we were in love before, and to be honest I really can’t accept the fact that you
became the type of women I hate most. But no matter what, I still want to warn you, leave my brother.
He’s…… he’s getting married.”
Leo took out a cheque from his pocket and handed it to me, “This is the pay that I get from my previous
research. Take this and leave him, I only have so much.”
It was a 3 million dollar cheque. All of Leo’s property and cars are given by Lance, he stopped getting
money from Lance a few years ago. So I knew very well this 3 million dollar cheque, was everything he
had, everything.
I looked at the cheque. I never thought someone would humiliate me with money like that, plus this
time, it was the man I loved so much.
I heard my heart broken into pieces, but I didn’t care anymore, I was already way too deep into this pile
of bullshit. So what if the man I loved misunderstood me? I’m destined to be alone forever, no one
would love me, everybody would only end up abandoning me.
I put on a fake look and scoffed, “Only 3 million dollars? I was just spending over 3 million dollars of
your brother’s money a few days ago. This amount isn’t enough for me to buy a few Hermes bags.”
Then I put the Hermes bag I bought a few days ago on the table,
| smiled and put a hand on his hand, slowing touching the back of his hand. “If brother Leo can give me
more, I don’t mind coming back into your arms.”
“PAK!” Leo slapped my hands away from his hands.
He said, “Jennie Gomez, since when did you become so disgusting?!”
Disgusting? Huh, right, me right now was really disgusting.
I tilted my head towards him and smiled seductively. “I don’t think I’m disgusting! Isn’t this normal?”
He stood up, looking at me with the corner of his eyes. “Do you know what you will become once my
brother gets married?” “Of course I know, his mistress, his secret lover. What’s wrong about that?” I
asked.
Leo must be really shocked to hear me say it out of my own mouth in such a calm and casual manner.
There was no going back, we were already so far away from what we used to be.
I looked up at him and smiled. “I know you look down on me, and I don’t mind. I am just like that, the
same type of woman like my mom. You are born with a silver spoon, no, wait, golden spoon in your
mouth, you won’t understand the poor like us.”
Leo stared at me with disgust, “Don’t try to find excuses for your behavior.”
“Everyone wants to have a better life, it’s just they way it is. Just because you are rich, you have
always been on top of us, so in your eyes, people like us who appreciate money and love money are
considered as gold-diggers.” I said.
“You’re not wrong, it’s normal to want a better life, but are you ONLY living a better life now? I already
told you, brother will get married soon, and what will you become when the time comes? You know it
very well. If you are willing to give up your own values and principals just for money, I’ll just pretend I
never know you.”
Leo left after throwing me these words.
I was like a frozen lake, frozen on my seat, I couldn’t feel my blood flowing through my veins. The man
I loved told me, “If you are willing to give up your own values and
principals just for money, I’ll just pretend I never know you.”
I stayed in the café for a very, very long time. The waiter even came to me and asked if I wanted to
order another cup of coffee. I left after that.
It was the beginning of Spring, yet I felt like it was Winter.
Th world abandoned me, so I abandoned it too.
I didn’t even know if there’s any reason for me to exist anymore, would I be happy in the end? I walked
around aimlessly in the streets of Denmark, looking at the cars and people. In such a hectic city, every
one seemed to be working hard to achieve their life goals.
How many among them are worrying about loans and debts, rentals and child care……
They worry about things like this, do married couples fight over things like this too? The middle-class
may seem to be living a tough life, but this is also a form of happiness.
1 stared at the blue sky. I never get to see such blue skies in this city.
I got into the public bus and went for the back seat. I sat down and looked out of the Leo Mason
window. Then, my phone rang. It was Lance Mason. I let it ring and didn’t pick up the phone.
A kind-looking old man in front of me said, “Young lady, your phone is ringing.”
I smiled sincerely at him and said, “It’s alright, not important.” All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
He gave me a weird look and smiled back awkwardly, then he turned back around. the phone stopped
ringing after a few more calls.
