Chapter 200: I will protect you forever
In the second half of the night, Serena had not yet fallen asleep. She was waiting.
She was waiting for Cristian to come back.
But as the facts proved, she lay awake all night. He did not come back even if it was already at five or
six o'clock. She lay on the bed the whole time.
After a while, Serena seemed to have accepted her fate, and she quietly got out of bed, then went to
the closet, picked up a nightgown and put it on. Then she turned back to her bedroll and went to sleep.
She made a decision, lay down and closed his eyes, and soon fell asleep.
No matter what woman he sought, she did not care.
She slept until morning, but had only for two or three hours. Serena's head ached. When she got up,
she covered her head and went to the bathroom. After washing herself, she went downstairs.
At breakfast, Leonardo noticed her pale face and asked thoughtfully, "Why do you have that
complexion? Did you not sleep well last night? "
Leonardo's greeting astonished Serena. She shook her head, "I'm fine."
Alessandro was not present, so it wasn't a taboo that Leonardo talked with her.
"I heard Cristian went out last night and hasn't come back yet."
Serena was going to drink milk, but after hearing what Leonardo told her, she paused and almost
spilled the milk. She put down the cup of milk and picked up a piece of sushi.
"I heard that Cristian is looking for someone?"
Serena just opened her mouth and bit a piece of sushi. Hearing these words, she felt uncomfortable.
Eating was like chewing wax. She did not even respond to Leonardo, who continued talking.
"Do you know who he is looking for?"
Serena took a sip of milk and shook her head, "I don't know. I'm full. I'm leaving."
After that, Serena got up and went out. Her steps became faster, as if she was running away.
After walking for a while, Leonardo hurried to catch up with her, "I also have to go to the company. I'll
accompany you."
"No, thank you." Serena continued walking without turning around.
Her hand was suddenly held by someone, and Serena turned her head in amazement. Leonardo was
clutching her wrist, "Serena, I'll accompany you to the company."
Serena frowned unconsciously, trying to release his hand, but Leonardo squeezed him tighter, "Wait
here, I won't let you escape."
Serena: "...Leonardo, I...
"I'm going to get the car."
When Leonardo went to get the car, Serena thought about running away, but thinking about what Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Leonardo told her, she stayed put.
After a while, Leonardo arrived with the car and stopped in front of her, letting her get into the car.
Serena could only get into the car. When Leonardo leaned over to fasten her seat belt, Serena hurried
to say, "I can do it myself."
"I'll do it." Leonardo held her hand and insisted on bending down to fasten her seat belt. His aura
enveloped her. It was very easy to put on the seat belt, but it seemed that Leonardo did it more slowly.
The whole atmosphere slowed down.
Serena felt a little uncomfortable, unconsciously retracted and tilted her head back slightly, hoping to
avoid his touch.
Leonardo's voice echoed faintly.
"Are you so anxious that you want to avoid me?"
Hearing this, Serena breathed out, lifted her eyes unconsciously and turned them to Leonardo's cold
eyes, "You..."
"I transfered your position because I don't want you to be mistreated by colleagues again. Don't
misunderstand me."
Serena did not speak, but her breathing became more strained.
Leonardo fastened her seat belt, but did not leave in a hurry. He slowly shook his hand, "Do you know
who he went to look for last night?"
Before Serena could answer, Leonardo said again, "If you have feelings for him, if you are happy, then I
won't say anything eles. But I don't want to see you suffer again."
"Leonardo." Serena wanted to push him away, but Leonardo suddenly stretched his arm around her
shoulders and hugged her.
At this moment, Serena heard her heart stop beating.
Leonardo...What was he doing?
"Serena, if you want, I can take care of you for the rest of my life."
Hearing thia, Serena lifted her lips and smiled, "Don't you ever think about how Cristian feels before
doing this?"
"Since Cristian does not want to love you, I will not give him another chance. Serena, divorce with him.
"
"And after the divorce?" Serena asked.
Leonardo paused for a while, then turned around, looking at her with kind eyes.
"After the divorce, everyone will talk behind my back, and then I will marry you again? Is you really
doing good for me? "
Leonardo lightly pressed his thin lips together without moving.
"Ah." Serena sneered mockingly, "Leonardo, are you really feeling sorry for me and don't want me to
be a victim of other people, or do you mean that you are anxious to take revenge against Cristian, so
you desperately want me to divorce him? Let me be with you, then you can show your charm, right? "
Hearing this, Leonardo's eyes flashed. He did not expect Serena to think this way and even say it
directly. He held Serena's shoulder, "Why do you think so? In your eyes, am I that kind of person?"
"Then tell me, what kind of person are you? Do you really think I will believe that you will like a married
woman? Since you already know my story, you should also know that besides Cristian, I have already
been married, and if I divorce again, you will be my third husband. In the eyes of your men, a woman
like me is nothing but a slut. Would you really want that? Don't be naive. No matter what you say, I
won't believe it! "
Leonardo frowned and his hands on her shoulders became tighter and tighter. After she finished
speaking, he whispered, "You are not allowed to talk about yourself like this. I don't care about if it's
your third marriage."
"Then what do you care about?" Serena sneered, "Do you think I'll believe that you don't care about
anything?"
"What I care about is your heart."
Serena was dumbfounded and stared at Leonardo, who was within reach.
Leonardo stared into her cold eyes and said with seriousness and sincerity, "I know that after two failed
marriages, it is hard for you to believe in men again, so I am willing to wait for the day when you are
willing to believe in me. Serena, I just want you to know that I really like you, I'm not kidding, I can ...
swear it on my own life."
He raised his hand as if to perform some kind of ritual.
"I am willing to bet all my wealth and my life in exchange for your trust. I want to take care of you all my
life, but if I say something false, and I'll die."
Serena paled with fear at the last sentence, "You, don't talk nonsense!"
