Crushed Affections (Dominic and Bella) novel Chapter 401

Leonard thought that Lia was right. It would indeed be harder for him to intimidate Zion as he was working in the military. Not to mention, Zion had ties to the Crawfords and the Sawyers.

Leonard said in a low voice, "Zion is my cousin."

Lia felt her mind go blank. Feeling that her facial mask was restricting her from talking, she decided to remove it. "What? What a coincidence! Doesn't that mean that I'll be your cousin-in-law in the future? Isn't that a good thing? Why do you want me to break up with him?"

The words "cousin-in-law" caused Leonard to shoot up from his seat. "You'll never be my cousin-in-law, and I'll never approve nor let you continue to be with him."

Feeling displeased by his words, Lia pursed her lips and said, "Well, aren't you quite the tyrant? You should just focus on your job and stop interfering in my relationships. It's midnight now. Aren't you tired?"

Suddenly, Leonard walked up to her and pulled her into his embrace. Taking advantage of her stunned state, he quickly lowered his head and planted a kiss on her lips.

The sudden turn of events dumbfounded Lia. She had a boyfriend, so why was she still kissing Leonard?

She immediately struggled to break free. Despite using all of her strength, she could not seem to move him.

Feeling panicked, she bit Leonard's tongue harshly. Once he had loosened his grip around her, she quickly struggled to break free and backed herself up into a corner.

Still shocked, she yelled, "Are you crazy?"

Leonard was still panting slightly, and there were traces of blood by the corner of his lips. His eyes were dark and menacing as he said, "I have indeed gone crazy. So why are you willing to fall in love with everyone except me?

"Before Zion, there was Oscar and Marcus. How are they any better than me? Why on earth did you fall for Zion instead of me?"

Lia was shocked by his state and felt her mind go blank. Suddenly, she heard her phone ring from her pajama pocket and remembered that she could call Zion.
