Flash Marriage to a Stunning CEO (Alistair and Richard)

Chapter 194

194 Raze the Whole World to the Ground

"Where have you been these days?" Paige demanded, her voice laced with

impatience.

In response, Leo slumped lazily onto the sofa.

Had Alistair been present, he'd have been flabbergasted. In just one night, Leo

seemed to have shaken off the shackles of heartbreak. He was brimming with life

and energy once more, the same charismatic and gifted music prodigy as before,

though a bit thinner.

As if deaf to his mother's worried query, he took the coffee from the butler, took a

sip, then placed it on the table with a slight grimace, clearly unimpressed by the

taste.

"Busy," he drawled nonchalantly.

Paige was far from satisfied with this vague answer. "Busy with what? So busy

that you can't even answer your phone?"

Leo dropped his gaze. "A secret operation."

Paige stood in front of him, arms crossed, frowning as she sized him up. "What

kind of secret operation?"

Leo flashed a smile. "It's called a secret for a reason. Can't tell

you."

"Not even your mom?" Paige said.

Leo just grunted in reply.

Paige forced a smile. "So hush-hush? But I'm your mom. I won't do you any

harm. I'm dying of curiosity. Just tell me, will you?"

Leo looked up, his eyes blankly fixed on Paige. His hand on the sofa

unconsciously balled into a fist and then relaxed. A strange smile tugged at his

mouth, a blend of mockery and something else.

It was only then that Paige noticed something was off about her son. First, she

tugged at her mask to adjust it, then reached out to touch his forehead. "What's

up? Not feeling okay? There're a ton of sick people around these days. If you're

not feeling good, head to the hospital right away."

Leo turned his head away and said frostily. "I'm fine."

Paige's hand hung awkwardly in the air.

Paige had had a hunch that something wasn't right as soon as Leo stepped in.

Now she finally put her finger on it.

Leo was cold and seemed to brush her off.
