Chapter 126

Her left cheek was a bit swollen, and though her forehead had stopped bleeding, the wound was still clearly visible.

She looked a bit of a mess, but with a sly smile, she still managed to exude a captivating beauty.

This scene seemed oddly familiar.

Eight years ago to the day, he had come home late at night. Just as he entered the living room, he caught a glimpse of her hastily retreating upstairs.

She clearly heard him come in but hurriedly avoided him that was unusual.

Leandro went upstairs and walked to her bedroom door. With a gentle push, the door swung open.

But her room was empty. Leandro slowly made his way to the bathroom, spotting her curled up in the bathtub.

Her eyes were red and swollen – a clear sign she’d been crying. She seemed to be holding back tears at that moment. When she saw him, she startled, quickly wiped her eyes and put on a smile, “You’re back, huh?”

Back then, she wasn’t as adept at controlling her expression as she was now. She clearly wanted to cry but forced herself to smile at him. But as soon as her expression changed, the tears fell.

He walked over to the bathtub, used his finger to wipe away her tears, and asked softly, “What’s wrong?”
