A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

Chapter 147

Chapter 145

“L-Leo?”

Hesitantly, she turned to Leo with trembling lips. Wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, the man standing in front of her fashioned a short buzz cut and had a rather stumpy physique.

His face was rounded, coupled with a pair of crafty eyes. On both sides of his lips was some facial hair, and he looked a little like a successful person.

While others didn’t know who he was, Elyse knew him very well.

But the more she knew, the more terrified she was. Her ears rumbled, and she was so weak that she lost the strength to stand upright.

Her legs turned wobbly. She wasn’t sure how much Leo had found out. Hence, she could only try to deduce from his facial expression.

Leo had awakened from his drunken stupor from earlier, and his handsome face was void of all emotions. His eyes were deep like an ocean, and his lips were pursed into a line. He did not urge her for clarification.

However, a thick cloud of cold air shrouded him, and it engulfed her silently, taking her breath away.

Her fingers tightened and loosened repeatedly, and she gritted her teeth as she decided to bluff her way through. No matter how much he found out, it will be okay as long as I don’t admit to anything!

So, she put up a confused and pathetic stance. “Who’s this gentleman? Why did you bring him to my place so late at night?”
