Mellisa's ears scorched with the puffs of his breath, her neck shrunk and she unconsciously twisted her waist.
Then Leonard snorted, breathing rapidly.
Mellisa naturally noticed the change. She chuckled and jokingly said, "Leonard, it looks like something is troubling you!"
Leonard gritted his teeth, endured the discomfort, and still hugged her tightly without letting go. "I still don't know why you left me when we were in Surabaya. Is there something you want to say to me? I'll listen!"
Seeing this, Mellisa didn't delay any longer. She turned to look at the table in front of her, her eyes gradually turning uncertain. "When I left Lakeside Villa, it wasn't just because of the news of your engagement."
Leonard was confused when he heard her frank remarks.
Will she finally tell him all the secrets?!
For a long time, after living together, Leonard felt that there was a heavy shackle in Mellisa's heart.
But no matter how much he asked about it, she would never answer him.
Is she finally going to confess tonight?!
At this moment, Mellisa paused, tapped her nails on the table, and continued, "Even though Lyn had threatened me a lot before, I think it was all just a bluff. Do you remember that I said that I was saved by someone in a car accident six years ago because of Leila's actions?"
Leonard nodded. "Yeah, but who saved you? You never said it!"
Mellisa smiled bitterly. In a hoarse voice she replied. "Actually, I don't know how to say it myself, because I don't know who that person is! When I woke up the next day from the car accident, I was already in Jakarta. Who saved me to this day... I still don't know about it!"
Leonard sharply saw the cold tone in Mellisa's tone, and it seemed that something was hidden in it.
At this point, Melissa's eyes were blurry.
She subconsciously wanted to get up from Leonard's arms. The man saw her figure drowning in the river of memories, therefore he didn't stop her.
When he let go of his hand, he looked at Melisa who was walking towards the railing with worry in her eyes.
At this moment, Melissa was holding on to the railing and looking up at the dark sky in the distance. "I want to know more than anyone who saved my life. I wonder, what is the purpose of saving me?"
"Years after that, I worked for his organization and did a lot of illegal things for him. In the end, apart from the mission he wanted me to carry out, there was no trace of his identity! He had covered everything well. This is why I suddenly have to leave because..."
Melissa turned to look at Leonard. "He found you, he threatened me that he would kill you and force me back into his organization!"
Hearing this, Leonard's complexion paled. "He used me to threaten you?"
Mellisa nodded weakly. "Like I said, he's no different from a ghost. I don't even know if he's a boy or a girl. What I do, he can always figure things out easily."
"Leonard, in that situation,? there are many uncertainties that frighten me especially since it poses a risk to your safety. While this may sound strange, my ability to survive the aftermath of the car accident attracted the attention of the organization."
"So this is the reason you insist on leaving?" Leonard stood up, walked in front of Mellisa and looked at her.
Mellisa said 'um' with some difficulty. "I'm not afraid of danger, but this kind of person who always hides in the dark is the greatest hidden danger. Before, you always asked why I was so busy all day, now... Do you understand?"
Melissa had shown 100% sincerity to tell this unknown secret.
Leonard's heart was hot at the moment.
It wasn't because the woman didn't love him, nor was it because their chemistry wasn't deep enough.
When his thoughts stopped, Leonard immediately reached out and took Mellisa into his arms.
He patted her on the back, sighed and muttered. "In your eyes, do I look that incompetent? He used my life to threaten you, then why didn't he threaten me directly? Mellisa, you should have told all of this to me beforehand."
"At the time, I didn't think much of it, and the Adlers had already prepared a fiancée for you, so I decided to go."
Mellisa closed her eyes in his arms, and whispered her own thoughts.
However, even if she used all means of escape, the heavy emotions in her heart still did not lessen.
As long as the other party was still around, she would never be able to sit back and relax.
That person clearly knew that she had come to Bandung. Even though everything seemed calm all this time, Mellisa always felt that it was only temporary.
At this moment, Leonard felt the turmoil in Mellisa's mood and couldn't help but clasp her hands. "Mellisa, you're telling me all this tonight, does that mean you won't leave me from now on?"
After a moment of silence, Mellisa whispered. "I want to try it, I want to join hands with you in dealing with this problem."
After speaking, she twisted her eyebrows.
This is absolutely dangerous!
Leonard choked on his breath and held her shoulders. "You should think about this, you should believe how strong I am. Is it when we're together that I don't give you enough security to make you feel that I'm a weak person who needs your protection?"
Mellisa opened her eyes and looked at him. "When you're with me, you only think about sex every day. Leonard, did you forget about it?"
Leonard was getting angrier. He gritted his teeth and narrowed his eyes. "That kind of thing? Mellisa, why are you being so stupid?! If it wasn't for my love, do you think I would casually sleep with you?"
Mellisa glanced at her worried brows and nodded slightly. "You do look like that. After all, the first time I met you, didn't you just…"
"The first time?" Leonard held his cheek with a smile, and said, "Yes, it was you who attacked me the first time, so you have to take responsibility!"
Melisa was speechless.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Leonard resisted the urge to continue speaking.
He sighed and pulled Mellisa back into his arms, lowered his head to her cheek, then said softly. "From now on, don't leave my side. Without you... I'm really empty. . Even if the person behind you has 1000 hands, I won't let him take you from my side."
"Mellisa, you have to learn to trust me. Even though the Adler family had been away from the world for a long time, this is no ordinary family. Be it personal connection or security, I have the ability to protect you. It's not six years ago anymore. You have me, Lilia and Jean. We have so many resources and we will protect you with all our might."
Melissa's ears melted at Leonard's whisper, she bit the tip of her tongue when her lips felt sour.
It wasn't that hard to be honest with each other.
After all this time, she just wished someone could support her...
"Leonard, I...." Before she could finish speaking, the lips of the two of them had tightly interlocked.
