Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)

Chapter 123

Chapter 123 No Future

"Leonard, have you and my uncle had dealings before? What do you know?" I asked tentatively, wanting to see if he'd be honest with me.

Mr. Harmon Senior said Leonard had been investigating my father's death for years, and even Lily mentioned the same thing. How could he have found nothing? But if he uncovered nothing, why was he so hostile toward Keenan?"

I was guessing he actually found some leads, but nothing concrete to pursue legal action. Perhaps he was trying to keep this from me because he didn't want me to worry. Leonard helped me lie back down while he was expressionless,

"The both of you haven't been in touch for years, and things are better that way. He's a scheming person."

Leonard only told me to rest well, and he didn't take the bait at all. I wanted to press him further, but he quickly changed the topic.

"The police found your necklace at the scene. The diamond's fine. I'll have a new necklace made for you."
