"It's alright!" As soon as the other party spoke, Mellisa's heart stung.
She slowly raised her eyes, and was welcomed with Leonard's overly handsome figure.
The man stood in front of her, looking at her with a deep smile on his thin lips.
His eyes observed Mellisa carefully, then as he stepped forward, he reached out his hands, and arrogantly embraced the person in his arms.
Almost immediately, he asked in a hoarse tone. "Miss, may I ask you to dance?"
When Mellisa was pulled into his arms, it was as if stars were melting in her eyes.
She lifted her head slightly, and she clearly saw the reflection of her mask in his sunglasses.
She curled her lips and asked, "Is this the upper class tradition of inviting a woman? Embrace her first and then wait for her answer?"
Leonard quietly tightened his arms, leaned into her cheeks, and sprayed a clear breath on the tip of Mellisa's nose. "Of course I've never done this to any woman but you!"
"Is that true?" Mellisa blinked and said with a smile, "I heard that the Young Master of the Adler family has an eye disease. Are you sure you can dance?"
Leonard's handsome face looked depressed. After a few seconds, he answered. "I wonder if I can dance, so I'd better give it a try."
Mellisa stared at him, but couldn't see what color was condensing in the eyes behind the sunglasses.
While Mellisa was still thinking about it, she couldn't help but raise her hand and slowly took off his sunglasses. "Wouldn't your fiancee be jealous if you hugged me like this?"
Leonard did not answer bluntly, but smiled indulgently. "Who is my fiancée? The one with the surname Irwan or Mayer? Which one are you talking about?"
At this moment, when Mellisa and Leonard were hugging and talking about each other, this scene had long been seen by many.
The girls who had been chatting together immediately looked at the two of them in surprise.
Including the boys who toasted and drank together, they cursed Leonard in their hearts one after another.
The beautiful and tall woman of unknown origin was now being embraced by the Adler family's Young Master!
What is the relationship between them?!
In this situation, many people started looking for Lyn. The man's fiancée was here, but Leonard hugged another woman and didn't let go.
No one knew that it was the Adler family's Young Master who took the initiative to hug her. In everyone's eyes, this turned out to be a very interesting story!
At this moment, Leonard's sunglasses were removed by Mellisa, and Mellisa's face was locked in a deep wave of the man's eyes.
Without the sunglasses, Leonard's facial features became clearer and more handsome.
Mellisa shook the sunglasses in her hands, smiled clearly, and changed the subject. "I think Young Master Leonard is the most handsome without sunglasses."
"Then I will obey you. From now on, I won't be wearing them anymore!"
Leonard hugged her in front of his arms, and even snatched the glasses from his hands as he spoke, then brought them to the dance floor.
Melissa saw his arrogant posture, there were tears in her eyes, and her voice was very soft. " I can't dance."
She did not learn this communicative method, even if she wore a beautiful dress she was never used to.
Leonard's hot palms were still on her waist, and his eyes were hot. "No problem, I am here."
As the words fell, he winked at Lawrence on the second floor.
Lawrence understood, and immediately ordered people to play music fit for dancing.
The soft, melodious strains of piano music flowed slowly in every corner of the banquet hall.
"Wherever your feet go, wherever you want to be, I'll be right there with you..."
Leonard carried Melissa and led her to the dance floor. The flash of light in the eyes between the guests gradually dimmed as they watched them dance gracefully.
A streak of light fell under their feet, it was as if the two of them were dancing without the world's distractions.
Under the beautiful light, Mellisa listened to familiar music beside her ear, and her eyes immediately filled with tenderness.
And the man in front of her, with his eyelids drooping slightly, looked at her affectionately.
Their dance enlivened the atmosphere of this party, making all the guests desire a chance to dance.
Under the view of many, their figures in black and silver gowns became the most dazzling colors on the dance floor.
Even though Mellisa's steps were jerky, under Leonard's guidance, she was still able to perfectly match the rhythm.
This dance is full of romance.
The music gradually stopped, but the distance between the two of them grew closer.
Leonard hugged her waist and locked her with force. "Is this really your first time dancing?"
Mellisa's slender fingertips rested on his shoulders, and her eyes still hid under the fox's mask despite glistening with stars. "Did I do something wrong?"
Leonard pursed his thin lips knowingly, nodded slightly, and pressed his handsome face. "It really doesn't look like your first time, but it shows that we have good chemistry."
Leonard said that shameless thing seriously, and Mellisa looked at him and smiled.
After a few months of being apart, this man was even bolder than before.
"Why didn't you say..." Leonard secretly squeezed Mellisa's waist. Before the words fell, someone around the crowd broke ambiguity at this point by calling out to him. "Leonard!"
At this moment, the song stopped and the lights came on.
Lyn was wearing that white evening gown, standing not far from them, her eyes behind a mask full of disbelief.
She had just gone to the bathroom to apply makeup on her face, and now Leonard embraced and danced with another woman behind her back.
This was such a hard slap to her!
She looked into Leonard's cold eyes in the distance, and tears gradually filled her eyes.
With so many people around, even if Lyn was angry and heartbroken, she couldn't allow herself to lose her dignity.
She stepped forward, and as she stood in front of Leonard, she turned her head to look at Mellisa. "Miss, thank you for dancing with my fiancé. I knew that he couldn't find me so he asked you to accompany him for a while. Since I'm back, thank you for your help."
Lyn's words were very flattering.
She not only expressed her gratitude generously, but also showed that she would not be angry over trivial matters like this. This thing was very ingenious.
She was very clear about the identity she represented now, she can't show her anger in front of others carelessly.
At this time, Mellisa looked back at Lyn dimly.
She staggered a step and distanced herself from Leonard. She glanced at the man warmly. "Young Master Leonard, did you ask me to dance because you couldn't find your fiancé?"
Leonard pursed his lips with a cold expression."Of course not!"
His voice was so low that the guests on the outskirts of the dance floor could not hear what he said.
However, Lyn clearly read the humiliation in his tone and expression.
From the beginning, she knows how Leonard opposes their marriage.
It was unexpected that the strange woman who appeared in tonight's party would be treated differently from her.
Thinking of this, Lyn looked at Mellisa for a moment. She immediately tried to recall the daughter of each family in her memory, but she still couldn't find the slightest clue.
This woman, whose origin was unknown, had to be watched closely.
But her contemplation only lasted a moment. In an instant, she adjusted her emotions.
She stepped forward and stood beside Leonard, looking at Melissa with a smile. "I'm sorry you had to hear those words. My fiancé and I have been fighting a bit lately so it looks like he's trying to make me jealous by dancing with you. But of course, thanks for coming to dance with him tonight.. That helped me a lot."
