A quick marriage - Chapter 507

Chapter 507:

Although she didn’t believe what Griselda was saying, when she thought of the worried expression on Leo’s face the night before, she couldn’t help but wonder if Leo had encountered obstacles.

So, straight away, she turned the car around at the next intersection and drove to REG.

He needed to personally ask Leo if he was helpless in the face of Mr. Elton’s case as Griselda had said.

Elton’s case as Griselda had said.

Since he had not made an appointment, the receptionist would not allow him to go up directly. Instead, she placed a call to the president’s office.

Lane escorted her to the office.

As she entered the elevator with Lane, she looked thoughtfully at the man who had always been at Leo’s side.

Lane felt his gaze.

He frowned and then turned to look at her, “If you want to ask me something, go ahead.” “Really?”

Sara looked at him hesitantly.

“Yes.” Lane nodded and said, “I’ll answer you faithfully.”

Since he had already said so, she stopped hesitating.

Then, she asked directly, “Has your boss had any problems the last couple of days?”

Lane was puzzled for a moment, but then he understood. He smiled and asked, “Why are you asking that all of a sudden?”

“Don’t change the subject. Give me an answer straight out.”

“No, you didn’t,” Lane replied without the slightest hesitation.

“Really, are you lying to me?” Sara looked at him dubiously.

Lane laughed and said, “How dare I lie to you.”

Sara curved her lips. The elevator had arrived, so she didn’t ask him any more questions and stepped off the elevator.

Lane, who was walking behind her, absently wiped away the sweat.

If it weren’t for the fact that the president had told him he couldn’t let his wife know what had happened these past two days in advance, he wouldn’t be able to keep his mouth shut.

If he told, the president would blame him.

Fortunately, he didn’t.

…

Sara pushed open the door and entered the president’s office. She saw Leo, who was reading the documents. She smiled and walked slowly toward him.

She thought he was concentrating on his work and would not notice her presence.

However, just as he approached her desk, he raised his head and smiled at her.

“How do you know I’m here?”

Sara feigned dissatisfaction and pouted.

Leo laughed and said, “When you opened the door, I heard the noise.”

Sara raised her eyebrows and looked at the documents in her hand. Suddenly she asked, “Are you busy?”

“No.” Leo put down the documents and looked at her, asking, “Why are you coming to see me?”

“Well…” Sara pondered for a moment and said, “Griselda has come to Benin City.”

Hearing this, Leo frowned and asked, “Have you seen her?”

“Yes, I have seen her.”

There was a great silence. Sara looked at him quietly and could clearly see that his expression was not as relaxed as before.

Fearing that he might be worried, she explained, “She came here for the same reason as last time.”

“She’s persevering.” Leo smiled teasingly.

Sara bit her lower lip with a hesitant expression.

Then, she took a deep breath and said, “Leo, she also said that you can’t solve Mr. Elton’s problem this time.”

When he finished speaking, he stared at her wide-eyed expression, trying to deduce something from her.

However, he looked at her calmly and said, “Really? Do you believe her?”

“I don’t believe her!” Sara shook her head and said, “I believe in you.”

Hearing this, Leo was pleased. He smiled, looking at her warmly and said, “Thank you for your trust, Sara.”

Sara raised her eyebrows and said, “Of course, I must trust you.”

Then he smiled and said, “You can go on with your work. I’ll sit over there and wait for you.”

She pointed to the couch, not far away.

Leo smiled and replied, “Okay, I’ll get off work when I finish this.”

Sara smiled and nodded.

Then she walked over and sat down on the couch. She glanced around the plain office.

Then she looked at Leo, who was back at work, and a trace of thoughtfulness appeared in her eyes.

She believed that he had the ability to solve Mr. Elton’s problem, but at the same time she also feared that he was hiding something from her for fear that she would worry about him.

Ultimately, this incident was caused by her father’s disapproval of her. So she still felt guilty about Mr. Elton and Payton.

Now that Leo also had to worry, she felt even guiltier.

She couldn’t help but feel resentment toward her father-in-law, whom she had only met once. He didn’t understand why a father could use such a despicable method to force his son to do something he didn’t like.

Was power that important?

She would not allow him to succeed.

She and Leo had to let him know that, aside from status and money, the most important thing in this world was love.

Whether it was love between friends, family or lovers, each was very important and indispensable.

Thinking about it, she felt a little tired. She yawned and fell asleep on the couch.

When Leo finished his work, he raised his head and saw that his darling had already fallen asleep.

He laughed helplessly, got up and walked over.

He squatted down and stared at her.

Her black eyes were full of affection. He reached up and gently stroked her cheek, murmuring softly, “Sara, I’m sorry I lied to you. But believe me, I will do everything I can to protect you and Payton.”

He stood up, took off his coat and gently covered her body with it.

After looking at her for a while, he slowly turned around, sat down in his chair and started working again.

Since she was tired and sleepy, it was better if she slept a little longer.

What he didn’t know was that when he turned over, Sara’s eyelids trembled slightly. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at his back with a complicated expression.

‘Leo, I know you don’t want me to worry. Then I’ll pretend I don’t know anything. I think you can protect us all,’ he thought.

….

Yayoi was not surprised when Wendy met with her again.

This time, Wendy did not show any arrogance.

Instead, she pleaded with her.

“Miss Song, Grandpa is so angry that he can’t even eat, can you persuade Maddox to visit him?”.

However, Yayoi just smiled helplessly and said, “Miss Wendy, I’m sorry. Maddox has his own thoughts. I can’t control him.”

Wendy did not give up and said, “Miss Song, I know Maddox is angry that Grandpa pretended to be sick, but he had no choice but to do it. Help me persuade Maddox, okay?”.
