Chapter 20

As soon as Leonard returned to Shoal Manor, he saw a car parked at the gate of his villa.

When Leonard got out of the car, the door of the car opened at the same time, and a tall and beautiful woman stepped out. It was Marianna

“What are you doing here?

Leonard was surprised at Marianna’s appearance.

Are you here to pay back the money?”

He gave Marianna 60 dollars for the fare when she left that day.

Although 60 dollars was nothing for Leonard, Marianna borrowed it from him, and it was only natural for her to pay him

back

Marianna smiled. “More than that, I’m here to thank you for taking me in. And I want to buy you dinner. Mr. Santos, will you do me this honor?

“Tll be sad if you say no.”

After speaking, Marianna looked at Leonard expectantly.

Honestly, Leonard hardly ate at Flora’s house today.

At first, Willie, Jarrett, and others were arrogant, but they flattered him after learning he knew Waylon. Leonard was mad at their changes in attitude.

So, he would love to have another meal.

Besides, he saved Marianna, so she should repay his kindness.

Leonard nodded. “Okay.”

Soon, Leonard got into Marianna’s car and left the villa.

Rex leaned against the car door and smoked a cigarette, looking thoughtfully at the leaving car.

“Mr. Santos is a ladies‘ man,” he thought.

Marianna drove Leonard to a fancy restaurant. Only people in the circle knew this place.
