I Only Want You novel Chapter 772

Leo was stunned, but thinking of James's attitude, he straightened his chest and continued, "No! Why? Are you annoyed?"

"Mr. Leo." Samuel once again stood up and tried to negotiate, "Look, you've been talking for a while. You must be thirsty. Why don't we find a place to have a drink first?" Samuel indicated Leo to leave James and Elizabeth alone.

When Elizabeth heard this, for the first time, she felt that Samuel was very smart.

It wasn't her intention to have Leo stand up for her. But Leo did it for her own sake, so she didn't interrupt him. She had to listen to him only because he had saved her life that day.

Many people had left since the gate was opened and only a few were around them. But it took time for everyone to leave. Some even intended to stay and watch them because James came with such scales and he was outstanding himself.

It was pleasant for Elizabeth to be watched by strangers.

If Leo left with Samuel, things would be much easier.

However, Leo was so stubborn that day that he didn't want to let it go easily, "It's not necessary because I've had enough water today."

Samuel nodded slightly and didn't say anything else. However, he was indeed speechless about Leo. Didn't he hearthat Leo came back from abroad as somehow a celebrity? How come Leo didn't understand his implicit meaning? How come was he so inflexible?

"It's fine if you want to continue. But I don't think it's the right time and place now," James said calmly, "And, can you let go of her hand now?"

Leo glanced at Elizabeth's hand and then held it even tighter to go against James's words. However, listening to James's words, Elizabeth thought for a moment and slightly tried to pull her hand back.

Neither Leo wanted Elizabeth to be in a dilemma, nor did he intend to hurt her. Finally, Leo let go of her hand.

But it didn't mean that Leo would stop talking. Leo chuckled, "I didn't know you would even feel jealous for such a small matter."

"Well. I would say you still have some conscience since you made the lockdown only to Little Bunny."

Hearing it, Elizabeth was shocked, and her heart skipped a beat.

What did Leo say?

She turned to look at the remained cars and soldiers with guns and thought it was impossible. However, she could hear a voice talking in her mind that Leo didn't speak randomly.

Looking at the soldier who just walked out from the crowd behind James, she was more convinced.

Was the lockdown really happened because of her?

She had thought that...

She looked up at James. For a moment, she was so confused and her eyes were full of surprise.

James was also looking at her.

He stared at her swollen cheeks and felt the pain in his heart. He looked up on her face and finally met her eyes. Slowly, a smile appeared on his dark face.

The smile was light but meaningful. Elizabeth could see his relief after anger; his relaxation after anxiety, and his gratitude after fear.
