At this moment, the mutter that came from Leonard's mouth made Mellisa's heart suddenly heat up.
She was pulled back into the man's arms again, and a familiar aura rushed to the tip of her nose.
Mellisa didn't struggle, she just lay still on his chest.
At such close range, she raised her eyes to see Leonard's handsome face.
Maybe this will take a bit long. At this moment, she couldn't help the rush of irregular beat in her heart. She couldn't help but lean forward and kiss his lips.
Then… someone opened his eyes at just the right moment.
Mellisa ran into his eyes, stiffened, and was immediately stunned!
Leonard raised his hand and touched the corner of his mouth, then slapped the tip of his tongue. "What did you just do to me?"
Mellisa lowered her eyes to suppress the panic under her eyes, and answered calmly. "I hit the mosquito."
"There's a mosquito in my lips?" Leonard slowly narrowed his eyes.
"Yes." After Mellisa answered, she lifted the blanket and sat down.
She caressed the crease in her shirt and opened the curtain, looking back for a moment.
She wanted to correct this awkward atmosphere, but she didn't expect Leonard to look at her with a smile.
Leonard didn't seem to hide the fact that he was blind anymore, he raised his eyebrows and looked directly into Mellisa's eyes.
A smile appeared subconsciously at the corners of Mellisa's slightly pursed lips. When she turned around, she said, "Wake up, it's dawn."
She decided not to reveal her secret like Leonard did, and the other party seemed to be enjoying it too.
...
At this time, the sky was clear outside the tent.
Mellisa walked slowly to the lake, closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
There were footsteps approaching behind her, and Mellisa turned her head absentmindedly. "Are you looking for me?"
By this time, Kevin was already standing behind her!
Mellisa looked at him with closed eyebrows.
Kevin stood in front of Mellisa, and glanced nonchalantly at the tent. "Is the young master awake? The Patriarch wants to see him."
Mellisa's eyes flickered, and she wondered secretly in her heart.
They stayed in a tent last night, and the Patriarch immediately sent Kevin to come look for Leonard in the lake and not in his room?
Even though the area around the lake was guarded by bodyguards, it wasn't that simple to hide from the Patriarch's eyes.
Thinking of this, Mellisa looked at Kevin doubtfully and said, "Does the Patriarch know?"
Kevin nodded but didn't answer her question. "Is the Young Master inside?"
Seeing him not wanting to answer, Mellisa didn't force him.
She paced to the tent, and when she opened the curtain, she accidentally fell into Leonard's arms.
"Be careful." Leonard wrapped his arm around her waist with one hand, and intentionally or unintentionally, hugged her.
Melissa's cheek rested on his shoulder, and in the next moment, she immediately took a step back. "Kevin is waiting for you, he said that the Patriarch is looking for you."
Leonard looked deeply at Mellisa's white cheeks. "Yes, I heard it."
Mellisa looked at him, nodded lightly, and then turned to make way before whispering, "Don't forget your sunglasses."
The veiled conversation of these two did not seem to interest Kevin.
A few minutes later, Leonard put on his sunglasses and pulled Melissa into the caddy that Kevin was driving in. "Send her back first."
Kevin lowered his head and turned the front of the car, and immediately sent Mellisa back to Leonard's driveway
"Come in and wait for me, don't come out if you don't have work."
Leonard looked in the direction where Mellisa got out of the car, and called out in a deep voice.
After the caddy left, Mellisa stood there and paused for a moment, then she curled her lips and smiled before walking back to the room.
She slept through the night, but she dispelled the pretense..
...
The time was exactly seven in the morning.
Leonard was already standing in front of Leonhart's yard.
Leonhart was crouching in front of an orchid beside the small flower garden in the courtyard, watering the plant seriously.
"Find a place to sit. "
Leonhart didn't raise his eyes as he spoke, his eyes still playing intently with the orchid.
Hearing his voice, Leonard didn't move. He stood in front of the door with his back straight. "Do you need anything?"
Leonhart opened his eyelids and blinked at him, his eyes sinking. "Do you really think that the things you have secretly arranged are capable of subduing the other branch families? Leonard, if you couldn't face your own problems up to this point, then our conversation is completely useless!"
Leonard's facial expression instantly stiffened, and his hands hanging by his sides clenched into fists. "So you know?"
Leonhart didn't say a word, but he pointed to a wooden chair beside the river.
At this moment, Kevin was standing behind Leonard, and seeing him hesitating, he leaned behind him and said, "Young Master, there is no one but us, so you don't have to worry."
Leonard's eyes stiffened for a moment.
Kevin's reminder made him understand the fact that the old man clearly understood the true state of his eyes.
Seeing this, Leonard didn't hesitate anymore. He casually walked over to sit on the side, but in an instant he stared at Leonhart's back. "Since when did you find out?"
Leonhart put on gloves, held a small shovel and turned the ground. "Why do you immediately ask like that? Are you confident in your own disguise?"
Leonard frowned and raised his hand to remove his sunglasses for a better view. "I'm really confident, so how did you find out?"
"You want to pretend to be blind, but you always show flaws. Have you ever seen a blind person able to accurately locate the source of a sound?"
Leonhart said as he took off his gloves and washed his hands with the flowing water. As he turned and walked towards Leonard, he looked into his eyes and slowly raised his lips. "Blind people don't rely on their eyes for survival, but the voices around them."
Hearing this, Leonard adjusted his sunglasses and leaned back in the chair lazily. "Since you've bothered to summon me today, this shouldn't be a discussion about how to disguise myself."
"Oh, you're actually thick-skinned and very calm indeed!"
Leonhart walked to the wooden chair beside him and sat down, turning and picking up the cup on the table, taking a sip. "Tell me, how is the progress of your secret arrangement?"
Leonard looked at him sideways, with the tip of his tongue touching his cheek. "Uncle's action has not been caught."
"That's right!" Leonhart put down the teacup and looked up at him. "He is your uncle in the end, do you think he can't see?"
Leonard suddenly stopped from sipping his tea. "No way! He couldn't have noticed."
At this point, Leonhart stared at him for a moment, chuckled and shook his head. "He won't know what you did, but you almost busted our game that year. If you want to stop the game, don't do it halfway."
Leonard immediately gritted his teeth, showing an angry face. "This shouldn't be too difficult! If you and mom don't encourage Lyn to marry me, Luke won't have the courage to go against me!"
The injuries on his body were caused by Luke's sneak attack when he first returned to Bandung.
In this Adler family, there were too many people who didn't want Leonard back!
