Chapter 45 Doubts About Bronte

Bronte quickly pulled herself together and caught up to Leon in a few strides. "Mr. Cooper, I heard you're looking for partners lately? My cousin..."

"No need," Leon cut her off, calmly shutting her down.

Bronte's words got stuck in her throat, and she looked pretty bummed out. She thought if she just spoke up, Leon would at least think about it. She didn't expect him to shut her down so fast.

But if Bronte was anything, she wasn't a quitter. Hiding her disappointment, she put on a pitiful look and said, "Mr. Cooper, are you still mad at me for what happened before?"

Leon looked up at her slowly, his gaze dark and unreadable. "I hope there won't be a next time."

Bronte's face relaxed a bit, but before she could sit down, Leon spoke again. "Miss Langley, there's something you need to understand. I hope you can let me know before coming to the Cooper Mansion in the future."

Leon's serious tone made Bronte freeze, looking lost. She had come to the Cooper Mansion without telling Leon, thinking their relationship was special and he wouldn't mind. But being told off like this, Bronte almost lost her cool.

"Mr. Cooper, I just..."

"Alright, Miss Langley, please leave. I have work to do," Leon cut her off again, signaling Damon to see her out with a look.

Damon walked over with a smile and made a "please" gesture. "Miss Langley, this way."

Bronte felt a pang of unwillingness, but after Leon gave his orders, he clearly didn't want to keep talking and turned to go into his study.

Her heart raced. With Leon's attitude, could it be that he had figured out her impersonation?

Feeling flustered, she lost all interest in Leon's business partnerships and just wanted

to get out of the Cooper Mansion as fast as possible.
