Chapter 97 Belated Affection Is Worth Less Than Grass

Leon was taken aback when Melinda called him despicable.

He suddenly burst into laughter. The more he laughed, the louder it became, and his eyes

turned red.

Melinda had never seen Leon behave so recklessly. With a stern face, she said. Leon, are you listening to me? I don’t like Simone. Since you’ve already broken up, it’s better to end it. Don’t think about her anymore. Jo is so good, gentle, and kind. She’s like a little fairy and my ideal daughter–in–law. Listen to me. Pursue Jo and marry her.

She appeared as a loving mother and emphasized. I won’t harm you.”

Leon stood up, laughing and saying. I listened to you too much before; that’s why I lost the girl I liked. You asked me to be good to Jodie, to take care of her more privately, and I did. You don’t like Simone, so I restrained myself from bringing her in front of you and tried to minimize our alone time. What else do you want?”

He kicked the bottle on the ground, sending it flying. “You’ve already destroyed my feelings, and now you want to force me to marry someone I don’t like. I’m your son, not a dog that just obeys commands. I did everything you asked me to do before.”

Then, he ended his sentence with great pain. “But I can’t break up with Simone.”

Thinking about the girl he had protected and cared for since childhood, the one he held dearly in his heart, he couldn’t let her go.

His heart ached.

He had been good to Jodie before and agreed with Titus to snatch Simone’s spot on the variety show. He even helped Titus by agreeing to announce their relationship publicly.

Apart from following Melinda’s wishes, Leon actually had a hidden agenda. He wanted Simone to leave the entertainment industry and come back to him, to revolve around him. He didn’t want others to see Simone’s brilliance and uniqueness.

He hated seeing her act in romantic scenes with other men.

He only wanted to have her for himself, to keep her by his side.

If Simone was forced to leave the industry by Titus and others, he could take the opportunity to have a secret marriage with her.

He had once suggested that Simone leave the industry, but she resolutely refused.
