Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Chapter 833

Anya stood there, a bit puzzled, "Where to?"

"The front gate, someone's dropping something off for you."

Adorably confused, Anya wondered, A gift? What could it be?

After hanging up, she slipped into her white and pink silk nightgown and pulled on her teddy bear slippers, ready to head out.

Mr. Calder came downstairs, "Anya, where are you going?"

"The front gate. Chad said someone's delivering something for me."

As the morning unfolded, the staff began their day, turning on the sprinklers to water the lawn and flowerbeds. The morning sun was gentle, like a child waking up, soft and endearing. Anya navigated through the garden, taking a shortcut to the front gate.

As she neared, she spotted a tall young man she hadn't seen in ages, standing there with a smile, hands tucked behind his back.

It had been so long. Leo watched as Anya emerged from the greenery, like a fairy stepping out of the woods, leaving her momentarily stunned.

"Chad," Anya softly called out Leo's name.

Her face lit up with a smile, and she dashed toward him, slippers flapping, calling out, "Chad~"

"Open the gate," she told the security guard.

As she reached Leo, the guard opened the gate, and Anya practically leapt into his arms, hugging his waist and burying herself in his embrace, "Chad, I've missed you so much." Leo raised an eyebrow, "Oh?"

He hadn't quite felt the same longing.

Anya looked up at him, her chin resting on his chest, "Chad, I really did miss you."

Leo wrapped his arms around her, gently cradling her head, gazing at her with affection, "Since you sprinted to see me, I guess I owe you a kiss. Close your eyes."

Leo was as bold as ever, embracing and kissing her passionately right at the Calder family's gate.
