Chapter 29
There was someone in Leo’s heart, but she died young. It was a well-known secret in Houston.
Looking at Niko’s behavior today and the girls’ similar clothes, everyone could vaguely guess
something.
Leo frowned, “What are you doing?”
“Leo, you can’t go on like this,” Niko said sadly, “People can’t come back to life after they die. Life
has to go on.”
“I’m living a good life.”
“But…” Niko leaned over and whispered, “I heard that if a man keeps holding his desire for a long time,
his sexual ability will decline. At least we have to stabilize it first and not retreat.”
Leo was about to leave.
“Hey, hey, hey, don’t worry, Leo. Listen to me first,” Niko quickly stopped him, “I know what happened
between you and that actress, Sasha, but she doesn’t seem to be to your type. How about this? Let’s
take a look first. There are so many of them. What if one of them looks more like Tessa
than Sasha?”
The man next to him chimed in, “That’s right, Leo. Men can’t keep their virginity for their deceased wife
all the time. Look at Shane. He’s 60 years old, but he’s always been surrounded by women. And
many of them are younger than his son.”
In a gathering between pure men, the topics were more or less a little dirty.
As soon as he said that, everyone in the room winked and laughed.
“I’m not interested,” Leo said, “No matter how much they look like Tessa, they are not Tessa.”
“Okay, okay, okay, I’ll let them go. Leo, sit for a while. We haven’t been together for a long time.
Can we talk?”
With Niko’s good intentions, Leo did not leave. Instead, he was pressed back to the booth by Niko.
There were two barrels of iced beer on the table.
He dragged out a bottle and drank it slowly.
The phone on the coffee table was still vibrating. Niko sent the girls away and sat down beside him with
a bottle of beer, “Leo, your phone has been ringing all the time.”
In the past few days, no one had helped him filter out the emails and arrange his schedule. All kinds of
information came in a mess, which made him very annoyed.

“Hey, that girl looks pretty good.”
“Which one?”
“Look, over there, the one in a black dress.”
Everyone looked in the direction of his finger and saw a beautiful woman in a black dress not far away.
Although it was just a profile, the side profile of the woman was more beautiful, and half of her face was
exposed.
“Is this kind of beauty from another city? I’ve never seen her here before.”
“She’s really a local,” one of them added, “Look, who’s the man holding her arm?”
“The good-for-nothing son of Shane Travis?”
“Yes, I heard that Shane has asked his son to try to manage the company recently. That beautiful
woman is Mr. Travis’s secretary. I heard that she is very capable. In recent days, she has helped him
get several cooperative projects. There were several shareholders in the company who questioned Mr.
Travis, but now there is nothing for them to say.”
Everyone exclaimed, “Oh my g o d!”
“Where on earth did Shane find so many beautiful women? And they’re so capable!”
The man shrugged, “Who knows?”
“But it seems that Mr. Travis is going to be rejected today. Look, isn’t the one he is toasting is the
famous designer Maria?”
At the mention of Maria, everyone felt shocked.
Maria was an internationally well-known architectural designer. She had never failed in her works.
However, maybe artists were born with strange tempers. Maria chose her partner not based on the
qualifications or strength of the other party, but only on fate.
“It seems that she hasn’t taken on any projects for three years. No one can hire her.”
Niko suddenly thought of something, “I remember that Leo also wanted to invite her to work with him
recently. Did she refuse?”This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
