Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 195

Leon leaned against the jewelry counter, still wearing his charming smile. "Why can't I come? Since you opened the store in Ocpeace City, you can't keep customers out of the door, can you?"

"Customer? What kind of customer are you?"

"What's wrong? Can't I come here and buy something?"

"Sorry, I don't want to sell you anything," said Cecil. She crossed her arms and had a cold look on her face, looking like she was urging him to leave.

Leon was not angry. He opened a booklet that listed high- quality jewellery at the counter and said, "Didn't you open the store to do business? Even celebrities have to eat. There's no reason not to accept money."

Cecil snorted and said, "What's wrong? You provoked your fiancee at the birthday banquet and now you want to buy a set of jewelry to coax her?"

"Can't I?" Leon raised his eyebrows and grinned. "Are you jealous?"

"Jealous? You have not woken up, have you,

Mr. Allen?¹

Looking at Leon's casual look, which was the same as back then, Cecil turned her gaze away and asked, "Do you really want to buy some jewelry?"

"Of course. What's wrong? Are you trying to change your mind? Do you want to keep me, your big client?"

Cecil didn't say yes or no. She reached out her hand and closed the jewelry catalog in Leon's hands with her slender fingers. Then, she said to him with a faint smile, "How are these worthy of your identity, Mr. Allen?"

After that, she snapped her fingers at the shop assistant in the distance and said, "Kyle, bring me the 12th volume of high- end jewellery."

"The 12th volume?" A surprised voice came from afar.

Seeing the intention in Cecil's eyes, Kyle's eyes lit up. He ran over immediately and brought a thick booklet over. He couldn't hide his excitement. "Cecil, here it is."

Cecil nodded calmly. "Go ahead and do your work."

After Kyle left, Cecil pushed the booklet towards Leon across the counter and flipped it open to the first page. "If you want to order jewelry, this book is more suitable for you, given your status."

Leon's mind was not on these jewelry. He casually flipped two pages and began to talk about other things. "We haven't seen each other in so many years. If Theodore hadn't told me yesterday, I wouldn't have known that you opened a jewelry store in Ocpeace City. Why didn't you tell me when you opened it?"

"Should I tell you so that you could send me a flower basket? Or bring your new girlfriend here?"

"I'm single. What girlfriend are you talking about?"

Hearing this, Cecil's lips curled into a scornful smile. She pointed at the jewelry on the first page of the booklet and said, "I recommend this set. It is a perfect gift for a woman of about 30 years old. It's not frivolous, but dignified and elegant enough."

"Your taste has always been good, so I'll follow your advice." Leon's hand moved closer restlessly. "Do you have time tonight? I want to treat you to dinner."

"Okay." Cecil immediately closed the booklet and smiled at Leon.

Before Leon had the chance to feel overjoyed, she continued, "The high- end jewelry is special. You have to pay first, and if there are no special circumstances, a refund is unavailable. Mr. Allen, credit card?"

When it came to credit card payments, Leon had never been timid. He took out a black card from his wallet and put it on the counter. He said with ease, "The password is your birthday."

Cecil's expression remained. She swiped the card smoothly, printed the receipt and handed it over. "Sign it."

Leon took the bill and pen readily, signed his name with two strokes, and continued to ask, "I know a new French restaurant. Their foie gras is very good, and I know you like that. At night..."

Before he finished, Cecil slapped the black card onto the counter and her expression changed faster than the weather. She said in a very cold tone, "If there is nothing else, I'll go first. Kyle, you can talk to Mr. Allen about the details of the custom-made jewelry set."

After saying this, Cecil picked up the bag on the sofa and went straight to the door without looking back.
