Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)

Chapter 142

Chapter 142 A Bargaining Chip

Leonard would not stop pestering me after we got home, as he felt annoyed that I did not give him a heads-up before I made my move.

However, Alisa's motive wasn't lost on both of us-she was there solely for him, yet she hadn't grabbed a good opportunity to seduce him. I bet she would jump on the golden opportunity that arose in my absence.

Leonard remained angry up until the moment he drove me to the airport. "Do not talk too much with Zack.

Do not be alone with him. Don't-"

"Stop it! I'm on a business trip, not traveling for leisure. If you're so worried about me, how about I seduce Alisa to help you out?"

He laughed under my glare. "Seducing me is as far as you can go. Poor me, charming a woman for the sake of my wife." Leonard held my hand and bit on my finger hard. He rushed back to work after dropping me off at the airport due to the amount of company matters awaiting him.

I had thought it'd take Alisa a few days to spring into action, but little did I know she'd been waiting for Leonard at his home office right after I alighted the plane.
